Taking a relaxing break while in Limassol, a city on the southern coast of Cyprus, the retired javelin thrower displayed her amazing toned figure while sitting on the rocks near tranquil waters.
Meanwhile her famous brunette locks sat effortlessly on her shoulders.
At 61, Fatima is twice the age of some of her fellow contestants on Channel 4 ’s Celebrity SAS and she is also the oldest contestant to appear on the series.
Sharing the reason of why she decided to join the show, the Olympian said she wants to prove to the younger celebs that she’s still got it.
Discussing her time on the show with the Mirror, Fatima said: “None of us knew what to expect. But having been a top-flight athlete, I’m used to being punished.
“I punish myself all the time and train exceptionally hard. It’s not just the physical, I’m also aware of the importance of mental preparation. These sorts of battles are won or lost in the application of the mind.
“I’m probably a tougher cookie in that way than most. So it was nice to share some of those strengths, and weaknesses, with these young people. It was a great chance to show an older person can still thrive in a situation like that.”
