Ruth Langsford issues health update on beloved mum after nasty fall


After breaking her hip and needing a replacement around Christmastime, TV presenter Ruth Langsford's mother Joan is back on her feet and dancing in a sweet homemade video

Alongside an Instagram video of the 92-year-old peeling vegetables for the family's Sunday roast and busting some moves to the background music, Ruth, 63, wrote this caption: "MY DANCING QUEEN IS BACK!!! "As you can see she's recovered well after a hip replacement op but I wasn't able to get her in and out of the car before today... it's wonderful to have her here again (and I get all the veg for our roast peeled of course!)
