Zara McDermott sent temperatures soaring on Wednesday as she posed for a new bikini-clad selfie, while soaking in the sunshine in Phuket, Thailand.
The former Love Island star, 28, is currently in Asia to film an upcoming documentary series, but explained she had the morning off and took the opportunity to slip into her swimwear.
She showcased a glimpse of her toned midriff and ample cleavage in the blue two-piece, which she wore underneath a white linen cover-up.
Zara – who recently parted ways with ex-boyfriend Sam Thompson – sported minimal make-up to display her golden tan and wore her long hair in beachy waves.
Sharing the snap to her Instagram Stories, she wrote: ‘Mornings off work’, before taking to her socials once again to reveal she’d made a new furry friend.
The reality star posted a photo of an adorable cat snuggled into her duvet and explained: ‘Left my door open last night for a bit… this cat ended up creeping into my room and having a nap on my bed.
