Jorgie Porter shows off her post-pregnancy physique in a beige bikini as she enjoys her final days of maternity leave in Marbella - before returning to Hollyoaks
But she had the real thing at her disposal back in July, and plenty of it, while spending the last precious days of her maternity leave on holiday in Marbella.
The actress, best known for her role as Theresa McQueen in the long-running Channel 4 soap, showed off her post-pregnancy body as she hit the beach in skimpy beige swimwear.
Porter, 37, was seen racing across the sand during her final appearance on the picturesque Mediterranean island, days before returning to work in Liverpool.
The British star later cooled off beneath an outdoor shower before pulling a pair of tight black cycling shorts over her bikini bottoms and returning to her hotel.
Porter appeared to be without fiancé Ollie Piotrowski as she rounded off her day by taking baby daughter Peony on a brief tour of a local port.
The child, who was born in December, remained shaded in a sun hat as she sat in her pram during the outing.
Porter recently confirmed her return to Hollyoaks would coincide with the teen soap's 30th anniversary.
She told OK! magazine: 'Something really special is happening when I go back, which I can't give away, but it's exciting.'
The actress said her character Theresa - who made her first appearance on the show in 2008 - will be 'scheming with an unlikely business partner.'
Porter took time away from the soap after she welcoming her second child with Piotrowski. The couple are already parents to son Forest, two.
She returned to the show in 2020 and has appeared periodically since then, including a two year spell from 2020 before her latest comeback in 2024.
The actress was seen returning to the show's Liverpool set in August, after sharing behind-the-scenes social media content with her Instagram followers.
Sharing a short video of herself dressed in character, she said: 'Guess who's on set! There she is! Filming for the latest... shhhh!'

Porter was understood to be filming scenes for Hollyoaks spin-off show, Hollyoaks Later, during her appearance on Merseyside.
The show, which usually airs after 9:00pm on E4, explores themes and storylines that the 6:30pm pre-watershed episode would not feature, including more sex and swearing.
In October, to celebrate Hollyoaks' 30th birthday week, there will be another instalment of the post-watershed spin-off.
The likes of Jamie Lomas, who plays Warren Fox, will also star alongside Porter in the special episode.

Speaking about the upcoming venture, Porter said: 'It's really exciting to be a part of Laters, I've been in so many over the years and they're always my favourite - hopefully I get a swear word this time.
'Theresa is scheming with an unlikely business partner and its fun to see her living life on the edge again.
'It's incredible to time my return with the Hollyoaks 30th birthday week too, I couldn't miss it.'
Co-star Lomas added: 'It's great to be back for Hollyoaks 30th celebrations and what better way to return than a Laters.
'Warren has been busy since you last saw him, wanting to rebuild his empire and start afresh after the heartbreak with Mercedes.
'We'll be filming a lot on location and they're pulling out all the stops so I'm looking forward to it.'
The official press release states: 'Hollyoaks Later has a history of airing some of soap's most spine-chilling twists over its 17-year tenure, and viewers can expect the same level of high-stakes drama for this Autumn special…'
But not before seeing out the final days of her maternity leave on holiday in sunny Marbella

Peter Andre is labelled a 'hero' after clambering through a window to rescue son Theo, 8, from a locked toilet during family break in Cyprus
Peter Andre proved he's no flush-in-the pan on Wednesday after rescuing son Theo from a locked toilet. The Mysterious Girl singer is currently enjoying a summer break in Cyprus with his family, but he was forced to step in after Theo, eight, was caught short during a trip to a local animal sanctuary. The youngster found himself locked inside a set of public toilets at Camel Park, prompting Peter, 52, to take action by climbing through an open window at the rear of the outhouse. Holidaymakers cheered the pop star on as he clambered through to retrieve his son, before helping lower the child to the ground. But despite having no trouble forcing his way into the locked toilet, Peter - dressed in beach shorts and a pair of flip flops - needed help of his own after struggling to climb back through the narrow window after rescuing Theo. 'Saved the day, and I'm still embarrassed,' the red-faced singer later admitted. In a separate video, shared with Instagram followers, Theo - Peter's son with second wife Emily MacDonagh - was seen complaining about the heat inside the unventilated toilet as his father peered through the window. The incident took place as Peter and his children paid a visit to Mazotos and the largest camel park in Europe, described on its Instagram platform as the 'place to visit for a different day out.' The Australian singer is also taking a rather different approach to music after ditching his mainstream brand of pop in favour of reggae, a decision that could potentially risk further controversy after his recent foray into acting. Earlier this year, Peter faced inevitable backlash for his starring role in Jafaican, a new film in which he plays a fraudster charged with mastering Jamaican culture in order to commit a major fraud on the Caribbean island. The problematic premise demanded his character wear fake dreadlocks and adopt a somewhat shaky Jamaican accent while attempting to pass himself off as black, a hard sell for outraged viewers. Peter has since brushed aside the controversy by returning to music, and his latest reggae infused offering appears to be inspired by his experiences on set. Sharing a teaser with Instagram followers on Monday, the father-of-five can be seen singing wistful lyrics about his 'island girl' while stripped to waist. In one choice verse, he croons: 'Said I wanna girl, wanna girl, wanna girl from the island. We pull another drink and move till the sun's up.' Peter faced inevitable backlash for his starring role in Jafaican, a new film in which he plays a fraudster charged with mastering Jamaican culture in order to commit a major fraud Captioning his post, Peter confirmed there was even more where that came from, adding: 'If summer was a song, this would be it. Heatwave incoming… new album dropping soon.' In May, the singer defended his decision to star in Jafaican - which has been described as 'profoundly disrespectful' - by recalling the racial abuse he experienced as a child growing up in Australia. The singer was born in London to Greek-Cypriot parents Savaas and Thea Andre before the family emigrated to Sydney on Australia's east coast when he was six. Peter said he was once tied to a fence by blue-eyed, blonde-haired school-children who 'threw stones at his head because of his darker skin tone'. He told The Sun: 'I remember the bullying and the racism we suffered as kids in Australia and how tough that was. 'But it gave me a deep understanding of what's truly offensive and what's not. If someone dressed up with a curly wig and a big nose, doing a Greek accent, I'd probably laugh – it depends on the intention. 'But if someone said "I hate you Greeks" or made hateful comments about our skin, that's where the line is. That's racism.'

Maisie Smith says Strictly was 'scarier' than Celeb SAS despite 'crying every day'
Maisie Smith has opened up about her experience on Strictly Come Dancing, revealing that her time on the BBC One was "scarier" than her stint on Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins Maisie Adam has revealed that her time on Strictly Come Dancing was actually "scarier" than Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins - despite 'crying the whole way through' the Channel 4 show. Maisie took part in the 2020 series of Strictly Come Dancing with partner Gorka Marquez. She made it all the way to the final that year but lost out to champion Bill Bailey in the final episode. She went on to compete in Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins in October 2022 and won the series alongside Ferne McCann, Calum Best and AJ Pritchard. Appearing on Loose Women today, Maisie admitted that Celeb SAS took its toll - but Strictly was scarier. It comes after BBC Strictly Come Dancing start date confirmed as line-up revealed. "I did cry the whole way through," Maisie said of Celeb SAS. "Celeb SAS is worse than it looks, even when I was watching it, it was like 10 per cent of how it actually felt." She added: "Strictly was scarier because it was my first time being on TV, was a shock to the system. But SAS was so physically demanding, you can't compare them." The 24-year-old ex-EastEnders star also opened up about her partner Max George - who recently underwent heart-block surgery and was fitted with a pacemaker. Sharing an update on his health, Maisie said: "Max is getting stronger every single day, gigs every weekend, so he gets all week to chill. Except not because he's got to travel and see me but he's doing well." As for whether she would return to EastEnders, Maisie didn't rule it out. "You don't know, you never know, but I'm enjoying being on stage, the show that I'm doing is gonna be incredible," she said. Earlier today, Strictly announced its next three stars who are set to take on the ballroom challenge - with The Apprentice's Thomas Skinner, Geordie Shore alumni Vicky Pattison and Neighbours legend Stefan Dennis joining the 2025 cast. This year's stars of Strictly were spotted heading into rehearsals earlier today as Strictly fever began over in Elstree, London.

Coleen Rooney revives Wagatha Christie skills as a detective investigating Man City charges in hilarious Paddy Power ad
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) COLEEN ROONEY revived her epic super sleuth skills to investigate Man City's Financial Fair Play case in a hilarious new Paddy Power sketch. The 39-year-old aka 'Wagatha Christie' has teamed up with the Irish betting company to announce its record-breaking 'Justice Refund'. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 Coleen Rooney has teamed up with Paddy Power to announce its record-breaking 'Justice Refund' Credit: Paddy Power 2 Coleen Rooney stars in the latest Paddy Power advert Credit: Paddy Power In the clip, no-nonsense Coleen, who is married to Wayne Rooney, is the boss of a parody 'Investigation Department' tackling a number mock cases. In a mock office she examines joke complaints including whether "nothing beats a Jet2 holiday" and the "latest refereeing conspiracy theories" by Arsenal fans. She then uncovers a suspicious phone call from a 'Mr Howard Wobb' heaping praise on VAR and hailing referees. But the sketch reaches its crescendo when she has to crack the case of the ongoing FFP saga. City were slapped with a whopping 115 charges over alleged breaches of Financial Fair Play rules back in February which then went up to 130. She gives her verdict saying that Paddy Power will sort it out once and for all if the game's bigwigs won't. The Paddy Power 'Justice Refund' is a payback scheme giving money back to all punters who backed a team that finished second to Manchester City in the Premier League since 2011. BEST FREE BETS AND BETTING SIGN UP OFFERS It covers eight seasons, meaning Manchester United, Arsenal and Liverpool fans who placed title bets in those years will have their stakes returned. More than 100,000 punters are set to benefit - including those who backed United in 2011/12, 2017/18 and 2020/21, Liverpool in 2013/14, 2018/19 and 2021/22, and Arsenal in 2022/23 and 2023/24. Rebekah Vardy LOSES bid to have Coleen Rooney's Wagatha Christie court costs slashed & faces £1.6m bill An official verdict on City's alleged 115 financial charges are still pending after the hearing concluded last December. City have vehemently denied the charges and have been fighting their corner at London's International Dispute Resolution Centre since mid-September. City have been accused of failing to accurately report their finances over a nine-year period from 2009-10 and 2017-18. It's also alleged they failed to provide all the details about former manager Roberto Mancini's pay packets between 2009-10 and 2012-13. The charges also relate to their alleged failure to disclose full player salaries between 2010-11 and 2015-16. In addition to their alleged financial wrongdoings, City have been accused of failing to co-operate with the Prem's investigation. If found guilty, City could be hit with huge financial penalties and a points deducation. They could also be RELEGATED if they're found to have committed the most serious charges. The club will likely appeal any verdict which doesn't go their way, meaning the final decision may not be made until the end of NEXT SEASON. The Wagatha Christie saga involved two former friends - Coleen Rooney and Rebekah Vardy - and resulted in a High Court libel battle. Coleen shared a lengthy Instagram post accusing her pal of leaking stories about her. In 2022, three years after Coleen's initial accusation, Rebekah launched a libel case against her, which she lost.
