A great-grandmother is dating men as young as 24 after boosting her bra size from A to F - at the age of 65. Joan Lloyd, who spent 15 years caring for her husband while he was ill, until his death last year, said the £4,000 operation is helping her to enjoy life.

“And now I feel so much more confident about myself. I feel my boob job has actually given me a new lease of life,” the Daily Mail quoted her as saying.

The mother of four and former model opted to restore her bust to the size it had been before having children but never seemed to find the right time.

“I'd urge anyone considering cosmetic surgery to go for it - if there's something you're unhappy with why not change it?

“Life is to be lived. I spent £4,250 of my savings on the operation and every penny of it was worth it.

“Older people don't have to sit back and live like an old spinster any more. 'I have had a few dates, with men from 24 to 50. Some don't even know how old I am,” she added.

Joan has four children, David jr, 46, Peter, 44, Anne, 42, and Vivienne, 49, 13 grandchildren and six great grandchildren.
