Myleene Klass has once again turned heads, this time while soaking up the winter sun in Thailand, by showcasing her incredible figure in the now-iconic white bikini that made her a household name.
The Iconic Two-Piece's Journey
The model and TV presenter, 47, has become synonymous with the white bikini ever since her memorable appearance on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here in 2006. The nation's attention was famously captured when the star took a shower in the jungle wearing a tiny white two-piece, an image that cemented her status.
Reflecting on the moment, Myleene penned in a recent social media post: '20 years ago, my name became a verb. ‘Doing a Myleene’. I’ll be eternally grateful for that moment.' She even joked about the bikini's financial success, stating, 'Honestly, that white bikini has put my kids through school.'
A Lucrative Legacy
The financial impact of that original swimsuit is staggering. Myleene has previously revealed that the first white bikini, which she purchased for just £40, was sold after the show for a whopping £7,500. She shared this fact ahead of entering the jungle for the all-stars edition in 2023.
Her current holiday in Thailand sees her continuing the tradition. In her latest snaps, the mum-of-three looked radiant in a white two-piece during a boat trip to Koh Tao island, relaxing with a coffee and taking in the stunning views. She also shared footage of herself snorkelling with her children.
Recreating the Magic
The trip follows a nostalgic post from Saturday where Myleene donned a matching white bikini to pose at a waterfall, captioning it: 'The OG (Although you can’t turn this waterfall off).' This was a clear nod to her famous jungle shower scene, which she has recreating two decades later.
Meanwhile, on Friday, the star shared a selection of sun-drenched poolside pictures, posing in a two-piece animal print bikini, make-up free, with her bronzed complexion on full display. She captioned the images 'Back in the jungle', though stopped short of revealing her exact location.
Myleene is enjoying the winter sun after bringing in the New Year with her rarely-seen sister, Jessie, proving that her iconic style and enviable figure are as captivating as ever.
