Myleene Klass Sizzles in Orange Bikini This Weekend

Monday's bank holiday saw the UK have its hottest-ever day in May, reaching 34.8C.

But sought to raise the sweltering temperatures even higher as she showed off her figure in a slew of scorching bikini-clad snaps.

The TV personality, 48, took to her Instagram to share a string of shots of her displaying her taut tummy in the vibrant striped two-piece as she cooled off in her garden.

Shielding her face behind a pair of futuristic Prada sunglasses, she accessorised the orange swimwear from Freemans with gold hoop earrings and a T-bar necklace.

Myleene is a brand ambassador for the online and catalogue retailer and frequently treats her followers to pictures of her modelling their collaborations - most recently in .

Captioning the sizzling post, she penned: 'Bank hols. klassy cabs did overtime'.

And she was immediately flooded with praise from her fans and famous pals in the comments, with former soap star Helen Flanagan gushing: 'My god'.

Actress Catherine Tyldesley added: 'Momma you look incredible' while her Smooth Radio colleague Angie Greaves penned: 'Girl' with a string of flame emojis.

Myleene has  when she grabbed the nation's attention by stripping down to a tiny white bikini to take a shower in the jungle.

She has joked that the famous bikini 'has put my kids through school' and has recreated the look many times in the two decades since.

She even wore a similar two-piece while playing the I'm A Celeb theme tune on the piano to promote the series and in 2023, the TV personality recreated the iconic scene when she returned to the jungle for the all-star series.

The radio presenter revealed that the original white bikini she wore  - after she bought it for just £40. 

While Myleene added that it had also been a very last-minute purchase, having bought it en route to the jungle after producers told her that her other swimwear packed would strobe on camera.

Her latest jaw-dropping bikini post comes after the former Hear'Say singer opened up about the fat-shaming and drug use that went on among pop stars in the 90s.

During a panel discussion on Loose Women in 2024 about the issues that come with fame at a young age, she reflected on her own time in a band.

When asked if she struggled in her younger years, Myleene said: 'I was in a band in my early twenties and the experience of it... it was absolutely incredible when it was incredible.

'But when it was low it's so difficult to comprehend because we're almost unforgiving of anyone who's struggling in these circumstances.

'Because you think, "Well you've got fame, you've got money, you can go to any party you like, I saw you on a private jet yesterday. Why's your life so hard when I'm trying to make ends meet?" So we're quite unforgiving of it.

She continued: 'They're like Icarus, they fly too close to the sun. There's a literal line of so much pop roadkill because of the experiences they go through.

'So if we see somebody taking drugs there are few scenarios where you would allow that or occupations where you would get away with that but it's almost encouraged because it plays into that rock and roll lifestyle.'

When asked about what pressures she felt as a young person, Myleene said: 'I mean the scrutiny for a start. My daughter is 17 and if I look at one of my band members Suzie she was 18, so that's one year away.

'I think if someone put my daughter through that level of scrutiny or pressure...'

Although she admitted that things have got a lot better since then, Myleene went on to add: 'Some of the experiences that we went through we were in no way equipped for it.

'We were just five kids in a room at the end of the day - not unlike these five kids in a room and that's all you have.'

She shared the shocking revelation that her band had tour managers 'clear out our mini bars and food because they thought were trying to control how much we were eating because they thought we were just too fat.'

'Before we walked into a studio our tour manager would get a big bag and clear out our food, treating us like we were children because we couldn't be trusted and we had an image of this perfection, this role to fulfil.'

Recalling another experience, Myleene quipped: 'Somebody drew a circle around my cellulite while I was on holiday...

'On the front of every magazine there was a huge circle and my cellulite, we wouldn't allow that today.'

Hear'Say formed on ITV show Popstars in 2001 and found success with their number one hit Pure and Simple.

Their first album Popstars was a huge hit but their success quickly dwindled by the time they released their second album Everybody.

They split up in October 2002, less than two years after being put together and cited 'abuse from the public' at the time as the primary reason behind the breakup.
