Loose Women star Saira Khan left fans speechless as she stripped totally naked for an “empowering” photoshoot – but soon found herself in hot water.
The sexy star took to her Instagram account to share a series of nude photographs she took for OK! Magazine two years ago, explaining that she felt proud of the photos.
Saira could be seen propped against a porcelain bath with nothing but a white sheet to cover her modesty, leaving her toned arms and thighs on full display.

Fans caught a glimpse of her pert derrière as she clutched the sheet to her chest to keep herself covered, letting her brunette tresses fall in gentle waves to frame her face.
Saira opted for a bold smokey-eye look as pale pink manicure as she gazed at the camera, explaining to her Instagram fans: “It is ok to feel sexy! You can lose it as a mum, but you can find it again through self care and self love.”
The star cheekily added: “My mum’s gonna kill me!”
But the snap was quickly yanked down by Instagram for breaching its community guidelines, leaving Saira fuming.
She explained: “So this photo on my main grid was taken down by @Instagram.
“So a woman inspiring other women to love their bodies is seen as a violation by @Instagram.”
Adding laughing emojis to her Stories, Saira joked: “I’ve got a feeling my mum’s working at Instagram HQ!”
But it wasn’t all light and laughter, as Saira slammed the social media app in her caption, writing: “Ohh @Instagram your double standards and ignorance sometimes is just [shrug emoji].”
She had originally explained of the photoshoot: “When a woman truly owns her body, without shame, guilt, embarrassment or fear – only then she is free to be herself, truly herself.

“This photoshoot empowered me – just as some people are empowered by covering themselves up from head to toe – I was empowered to strip off all of what society, culture and religion expected of me!”
She added that the shoot was “on her terms” and she “loved every minute”.
After her shoot in 2019, Saira told The Mirror: “It comes at an important time because next year I turn 50. I wanted to put all my insecurities and hang-ups behind me.
“I have short legs, small boobs and a curvy bum – the total opposite of a waif.”
But she added that she “wanted to do her bit” to ensure that women “create a better future for themselves” with the sultry shoot.
