Hollyoaks star Nikki Sanderson is blowing out 36 candles on her birthday cake this week, marking the event with a low-key celebration at home.
In honour of the happy occasion, the Celebrity SAS star stripped to a stylish pair of sheer navy undies, complete with high-waisted briefs and a matching sports bra.
Perched on the side of her bed, Nikki’s toned abs were front and centre in the carefree snap, as she threw her head back in laughter.
Her brunette locks tumbled down her chest in waves, and fluttery false lashes added an extra dose of glamour to the look.
In her caption, the Brit beauty celebrated by announcing: “36 and counting!”
Adding the hashtags “pose” and “naughty,” the soap star made light of the impromptu photoshoot with her trademark sense of humour.

Her stint on Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins earlier this year, which saw her train under Chief Instructor Ant Middleton, propelled her fitness regime to new heights.
Reflecting on the build-up to the experience, she told Mirror Online: “I was so lazy for a long time.
“When I found out I was doing the show I had three weeks to get in some sort of shape.

“I hired a trainer and he made me jump in a reservoir in October, so I’d know the shock of the cold water.”
Once the series began, the physical challenges mounted, as she added: “Every bit of it was hard.
“Running with 30kg on my back, then being handed another 30kg to carry and go off on a 3-hour steep hill hike, I was like, ‘Cheers guys!’ That’s my body weight. It killed me.”
