Bridgerton star Simone Ashley looked incredible in a black bikini.
The 29-year-old actress, who plays Lord Anthony Bridgerton’s love interest Kate Sharma in Netflix’s hit show, was seen soaking up the sun by a lake. It’s clear she knows how to make the most of the heatwave.
But Simone sent temperatures soaring all by herself in a beaded black bikini teamed with co-ordinated tie side bottoms. She looked to be in her element lying on a blue towel on the grass while doing a crossword.

The star shielded her eyes with stylish shades and cuddled up to her adorable pooch Spaniel. She decided to go for a dip in the lake to cool off in the heat.
Simone, who shot to fame in 2022 as fiery aristocrat Kate in Bridgerton, said she ‘loves’ dressing up in fancy Regency era clothing for the show. Praising the costume team, she said: “I love dressing up for Bridgerton.
“The show has been a very special experience in my life and it’s a job where I get to go to work and wear the most beautiful couture. It’s an honour to wear our costume designer, tailor, and seamstresses’ work. You step out feeling like a princess. The hair and makeup as well… Farida [Ghwedar] does my wigs for Bridgerton and they’re just so beautiful.”
Simone also revealed how she stays in such incredible shape. She told Vogue: “I swear by reformer Pilates — I was introduced to it a few years ago —and I’m a massive runner, I run all the time.
“It’s a very mindful and thoughtful exercise— sometimes it’s the minimal movements that are the most powerful. For women, it’s great because it connects you to your pelvic floor, plus it gives you a full awareness of your body.
“Whenever I’ve got lots of press coming up, or a red carpet, if I work out lots I feel less depressed and generally happier. And I feel like the best version of myself.”
Simone’s first famous role was popular girl Olivia in Sex Education. She appears as one of “The Untouchables” in the show’s Moordale Secondary School.
