Can't make it up.

"It's your eyes - they're... way-less baggy," says retired news anchor Lee Nelson's wife, ex-news anchor Cindy Williams.

Yep, former, now-retired news people who have decided they would cash out and make big bucks selling their bodies, so to speak.

The latest example is a TV celeb couple from Portland, Maine who retired from WCSH-TV and decided to sell themselves as, well, physical (albeit wrinkled) specimens.

The husband, meanwhile, has posted a new video on Facebook advertising his facial cream.

As we say, folks, you can't make this up.

So one day they sold themselves to you, the viewers, as journalists. In fact they did that for decades.

And the next day suddenly they're posing for cameras and lately - selling wrinkle cream?

And, lest we forget, making big bucks in the process.

Yep, it's hard to believe, but it's true.

This just in. 😂

"Hey honey you look ... different."
