Speaking to The Sun, Kaye said: “I’ve never ever thought of myself as being on the wrong side of ageism or sexism – I’ve never approached life that way – but I am becoming more aware of a negative attitude towards older women. I’d never felt affected by it before.
“I read a comment from someone saying old-aged women can’t move, they’re so unfit, they’re slow… I thought ‘jesus christ what more do you want?'”
Meanwhile, Kaye admitted although she has “regrets” about leaving the competition so soon, she “got an opportunity that lots of people would give their right arm for”.
She added: “I can either choose to be grudgey about it and say it’’”
