Big Brother alum Chanelle Hayes brightened up the Spanish seaside as she flaunted her teeny waist in a vivid yellow bikini on a recent winter getaway.
The 33-year old wowed onlookers as she took a dip in Palma to escape Mallorca’s heat, while the UK faced chillier temperatures.
And she definitely seemed to be lapping up every minute of her sun-soaked trip, making the most of the sand and surf.
The mum-of-two has left fans in awe after her outstanding weight loss journey, shedding more than eight stone following gastric sleeve surgery.
Chanelle has battled her weight since rising to fame in 2007, and has now made quite a name for herself as a body positivity expert.

In a recent social media post, she penned: “Let’s talk about bodies. We all have them, we all dislike parts of them, we all see other people who have bodies more preferable to our own tastes.
“But let’s reeeaally talk bodies: we need them to live, they enable us to breathe, to move, to laugh, to think, to dance, to feel. Our bodies contain our hearts, vital organs, our souls, our most important pieces.
“We only see the outsides of our bodies. But who cares about a phone case more than they care about the actual phone?!
“I have wobbles and jiggles and bits I don’t love about myself, but looking at the physical data on paper from my healthcare team of how much my health has improved since the weight loss that caused these jiggles helps me to embrace the bits of the outer me I don’t like”.

The TV personality also recently delighted her loyal 117,000 Instagram followers with before-and-after snaps.
Captioning the shots, she wrote: “Pics I used to post vs pics I post now. I am the same weight (give or take 1-2lb) in both the these pictures.
“One was airbrushed to within an inch of its life and I could still pick it to pieces whereas the other has zero editing and – although I still don’t love the look of it and would like to change bits of it- I accept that it’s the real me.

“It scares me that some of the pictures we post online are so unlike the real us, we wouldn’t actually recognise each other in the street without the editing or filters.
“At least you know if you see a rough saggy old bird with a flat butt it’s actually me and not that unrecognisable species on the left lol”.
Indicating she’d moved on from her days of sexy undies, she added: “Also I much prefer the Matalan basics set on the right instead of all those fiddly bits on the fancy sets”.
