Television presenter and model Myleene Klass has turned back the clock, recreating one of British reality TV's most memorable moments two decades after it first captivated the nation.
The Iconic Jungle Moment Revisited
Myleene Klass, now 47, shot to fame in 2006 during her stint on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! It was her simple act of taking a shower in the Australian jungle while wearing a tiny white bikini that seared the image into the public consciousness, making the two-piece synonymous with her name.
Now, twenty years later, the mother-of-three has revisited that iconic look. While enjoying a winter sun getaway at an undisclosed location, Myleene posed for a series of photographs at a stunning waterfall, donning a strikingly similar matching white bikini.
Sharing the Moment with Fans
Klass took to Instagram on Saturday to share the glamorous shots with her followers. The photos showcased her incredible figure, long legs, and tiny waist, proving that time has been exceptionally kind to the star.
In one joyful capture, she beams with a broad smile as the waterfall gushes dramatically behind her. Alongside the images, Myleene penned a nostalgic caption reflecting on the legacy of that original moment.
'The OG (Although you can’t turn this waterfall off),' she wrote. '20 years ago, my name became a verb. ‘Doing a Myleene’. I’ll be eternally grateful for that moment in the Australian jungle... Honestly, that white bikini has put my kids through school.'
Fan Reaction and a Lucrative Legacy
The post sent her fans into a frenzy of compliments, with many praising her ageless beauty and stunning physique. Comments flooded in, with one admirer writing, 'You look amazing Myleene absolutely beautiful. Keep rocking that gorgeous white bikini!!!'
The financial impact of that original bikini is almost as legendary as the scene itself. Myleene has previously revealed that the £40 bikini she wore in 2006 was later sold for a staggering £7,500 after the show concluded.
Her recent holiday posts have also included snaps of her soaking up the sun by a pool and in a jacuzzi, wearing an animal-print two-piece, with the caption 'Back in the jungle' hinting at her tropical locale. She celebrated the New Year with her rarely-seen sister, Jessie, though has kept the exact destination private.
