Donna Air showed off her ageless physique in a burgundy bikini as she enjoyed a lavish winter break in the Caribbean island of Mustique.
The English actress, 46, bid farewell to the stunning holiday destination on Sunday after making ‘magical memories’ with her lookalike daughter Freya Aspinall, 22.
She wrote: ‘The hardest part of the holidays is saying goodbye. I love making memories with you @freyaaspinall ❤️ and so grateful for this magical trip. Back to work tomorrow!! #letsgo #newyear #mamadaughtertime’
The Split star, who shares daughter Freya Aspinall with ex Damian Aspinall, looked nothing short of sensational in the swimsuit snap.
Donna shot to fame at just ten years old on the iconic BBC series Byker Grove.
She was just 21 when she met and fell in love with multimillionaire Damian, who was 40 at the time.

They were introduced at a dinner party in 2000 by their mutual friend, former It Girl Tara Palmer-Tomkinson, and went on to have a seven year relationship, before their amicable split in July 2007.
Damian, owns The Aspinall Foundation, which partners with Howletts Wild Animal Park, founded by his father John Aspinall.
The Aspinall Foundation is British charity founded in 1984 that strives to promote wildlife conservation and return captive animals back to the wild, while also running projects abroad to protect endangered species.
It runs both Howletts and Port Lympne park, which is set in 600 acres and houses many rare and endangered species, with the largest breeding herd of black rhinos in the UK.
Freya has inherited her father’s love of conservation and dedicates her time to caring for various animals in the sanctuary and is being lined up to one day inherit his position as chair of the Aspinall Foundation.
She has also inherited her mother’s stunning good looks and became the youngest model on the books of Storm, the agency discovered by Kate Moss, in 2018.
But rather than pass most of her time on the runway, she spends her days in the park caring for orphaned lion cubs and gorillas, or in Africa to release them back into the wild.
The influencer uses her Instagram to promote the importance of conversation work, sharing heartwarming videos of her cuddling with big cats and feeding gorillas by hand in their enclosures, raking in an impressive 1.5million followers.

Freya has shown she’s not a typical ‘nepo baby’, with it being reported that when she signed her modelling contract she insisted she would use her profile to promote conservation issues.
Calling herself a ‘mini version’ of dad Damian, she has said if she ever books a magazine cover it will be as a conservationist rather than a model.
Speaking to the Financial Times, she admitted: ‘I grew up with animals and couldn’t imagine my world without them. This is in my blood – I’ve always known what I wanted to do.’
And it’s no wonder she shares such a close bond with animals, after being placed in in a gorilla enclosure at Howletts as a baby to be carried off by the female of the group.
It was a ritual Damian had carried out with his first two daughters, Tansy and Clary, from his 15-year marriage to Louise Sebag-Montefiore.
Describing his plans for Freya at the time, he told London’s Evening Standard: ‘It’s a ritual. I’ll probably give her to the dominant female who will take her off, sex her, and introduce her to the others. I did this with my other daughters, now it’s Freya’s turn.’
While Donna fully approved of the plan because she did not believe that Freya would be in any danger.
Damian added: ‘Why would I not trust them? I know them, I grew up with them. They are my friends’.
Actress Donna was just 21 when she met and fell in love with multimillionaire Damian, who was 40 at the time, dating for seven years and welcoming Freya in 2001 (trio seen in 2013)

And Freya is certainly not afraid of getting up and close to exotic animals at the family wildlife park.
She has described Port Lympne Wild Animal Park in Kent where she loves to feed the giraffes as one of her ‘favourite places to be’.
She’s often seen cuddling and feeding treats to a pair of gorillas, Silverback Kifu and Tambabi, that she has known since birth.
