Chantelle Houghton proudly showcased her four stone weight loss in an emerald ʙικιɴι this week as she hit the beach during a break to Tenerife.
The former Celebrity Big Brother star, 39, looked incredible in the skimpy green two-piece as she frolicked in the sea and strolled along the shore.
Chantelle oozed confidence while modelling the halterneck swimwear which perfectly highlighted her slimmed down frame.
She left her long dark tresses loose for the outing and opted for a light palette of make-up.
Making the most of the sunshine, Chantelle enjoyed a refreshing paddle in the water, giggling as the waves lapped over her legs.
She looked stunning as she flicked her cascading raven locks and tipped her head back as she soaked up the sunshine.
The mother-of-one made the most of her downtime as she revelled in the solo beach day.
Having hit 13 stone in 2021, the mother-of-one overhauled her diet and exercise routine after splitting with her ex-fiancé Michael Strutt.
Chantelle recently told OK! Magazine she was motivated to get fit after being mistaken for a pregnant person.
She said: ‘My tummy has always been my problem area. My limbs are like sticks, but the weight goes to my tummy and it’s always been the case.
‘People used to come up to me thinking I was pregnant. I was in a shop and a lady asked me when I was due, and then the same thing happened just weeks later.
‘It happened so many times that I just went along with it and brushed it off. It didn’t upset me because I knew I did look pregnant.’
She overhauled her lifestyle and she has now dropped to a size eight, but insisted she is not on a strict diet.
Chantelle took to Instagram in February to reveal she is planning on being her ‘own Valentine’ this year because she is focusing on ‘self care and self love’.
She admitted she is her ‘own worst enemy’ and has ‘hated’ herself for years before finding herself in a lengthy social media post.
Chantelle, who has previously been targeted by vile trolls over her weight, said she is ‘finally in a place where I like myself’ again and has started to ‘heal’.
The TV personality showed off her slim figure as she flashed her toned midriff in a mirror selfie in a pair of black leggings and a blue cropped sports top.
Alongside the post, she wrote: ‘Be your own valentine….self care and self love is so important, I HATED myself for YEARS, I’d tell myself the most awful things, I was my own worst enemy.
‘I’m FINALLY in a place where I like myself, I’m ok, I’m doing great and healing. I’ve been through SO MUCH and the girl I see in the mirror NEEDS my kindness and I’m giving her that .
‘My healing journey has only just begun and I am so proud of myself for surviving what I went through and I am EXCITED for the future!! I’m LIVING instead of just SURVIVING!
‘Whatever you’re going through, take time for yourself, practice self care, meditate, read books, go for a walk, talk to friends, reach out, you are a SURVIVOR. I am NO longer a victim. I am a SURVIVOR.’
It comes after Chantelle ruled out ever having cosmetic surgery again at the end of last year – despite being tempted after she gained three and a half stone during lockdown.
She last went under the knife in 2016 when she had her breast implants removed, saying the original surgery was her ‘biggest regret’.
Speaking to The Sun, she said: ‘When I had my breast implants removed completely, I knew that was my very last cosmetic surgery. I made a promise to myself I’d only go under the knife again for medical reasons.’
The star said she promised herself she would not have surgery again except for medical reasons.
