Vicky Pattison never shies away from speaking frankly with her fans, and her latest Instagram post was no exception.
The 32-year-old beauty shared a stunning lingerie modelling shot with her fans, opening up about her relationship with her body in the caption.
Inspiring others to love their bodies, the Geordie Shore star revealed she is trying to “learn to love” what she sees “in the mirror” after years of self-doubt.
In the snap, Vicky posed on white bedsheets, wearing a sheer purple lace one-piece complete with ribbed panels and a plunging neckline.
Her brunette locks were blown out into waves, while her eyes were lined with sultry dark kohl and lashings of mascara.

In her caption, she announced: “So honoured to be part of the lovely Boux Avenue’s Your Shape, Your Style campaign…
“It is mental health awareness week and it has never been more important to practice love, kindness and positivity…
“Probably one of the most important of all, and often the one we forget about- is self-love. It would be dead easy for me to look at this picture and pick myself apart, focus on the parts of my body I’m not 110% happy with… “

The reality star admitted that she has wished for “smaller thighs or a perkier butt” in the past, but going forward would focus on being a “little kinder” to herself.
She added: “After-all, as women, most of us have been criticising ourselves for years and it hasn’t worked. Maybe if we all try approving of ourselves regardless of our body shape or size… Something amazing will happen.”
In the comments below, Vicky’s 4.6m followers made it clear they found her message inspiring, as they thanked her for celebrating Mental Health Awareness Week in such an honest and open fashion.

Mental Health Awareness Week runs from May 18 until the 24th, with this year’s theme revolving around “kindness”.
