Former Big Brother star Chanelle Hayes has been spotted confidently embracing her body in a bikini while holidaying in Greece. The 34-year-old lost nine stone within the past two years following a gastric sleeve operation in August 2020.
Chanelle was seen enjoying a dip in the pool wearing an emerald green bikini with a bra-like top and high-waisted bottoms. She completed her poolside look with black thong flip-flops and a white and black striped oversized beach bag.
The reality star, who recently got engaged to boyfriend Dan Bingham, opened up about previously feeling conscious about wearing a bikini due to loose skin from her surgery. In a social media post, she wrote: 'I was conscious about wearing a bikini on holiday this year because of my loose skin... but then I remembered I did all the other years so why would I not anymore?!'
Chanelle added: 'Gave my head a little shake and reminded myself of my post last year: EVERY body is a bikini body.' Fans praised her body positivity message, with one commenting: 'You look stunning in all of those pictures.'
Chanelle began dating account manager Dan at the start of last year and announced their engagement in April. An insider said: 'Chanelle has really been through it when it comes to relationships and this time it really feels like she’s found The One.'
