A British comedy treasure is barely recognisable while soaking up the sun on her winter holiday. Dawn French, 67, renowned for her comedic genius, has recently returned to our screens with her performance on The Masked Singer alongside her cherished friend and fellow comedian Jennifer Saunders.
This was followed by an appearance at an event organised by the Rodgers and Hammerstein Association, where she showcased significant weight loss and sported her iconic hairstyle again.
Now, the celebrity has whisked herself away to warmer climates, embracing the winter sun, as back home, the UK is dealing with snowy chills and floods. Dawn radiated joy in a social media video where she was seen trying her hand at Spanish or Italian.

The beloved Vicar of Dibley actress playfully engaged her followers by pulling faces and stretching her skin, all while basking in the glow at an enviable exotic retreat. Wearing a modest sun hat to protect against the rays and a black string top, she flashed impish grins at the camera.
Dawn confessed her efforts to recall some local phrases in a clip on her story, vacillating between speaking Spanish and Italian. Eventually, she caved with a chuckle and resorted to English, humorously conceding, “Chips, please.”
The exact whereabouts of Dawn’s vacation remains a mystery, yet the obvious joy on her face in recent images implies that she’s thoroughly enjoying her stay at an undisclosed hotel. This leisure time follows her celebrated return to television, imparted through her role as a judge on The Masked Singer.

Dawn is also poised to star in the upcoming BBC sitcom Can You Keep A Secret?, acting alongside comedy heavyweight Mark Heap. In the show, Dawn plays the widow Debbie Fenton, who, due to a mix-up leading others to believe her husband William (played by Heap) is deceased, sees an opportunity to claim his life insurance money.
Planning to hide William in their attic until they can secure the insurance payout and live out their years in luxury, the question is: can they outsmart those around them, even as their son mourns the loss of his father?
The legendary actress discussed her latest character and told her followers, “At last… a sitcom where I can keep my top on… mostly.”

This display of self-assuredness comes after she stood up to online bullies with commendable wit. In a 2014 interview, reflecting on her personal journey following a significant weight loss for health reasons, Dawn addressed the criticism from naysayers, stating, “I have never rejected the bigger woman I have been.
“Lots of people do it and say, ‘Oh, you look so much better – now you look well,'” she told The Times. “‘And I think, ‘F*** off! Don’t judge that other person who I loved.'”
