AJ commanded attention in her tiny two-piece as she posed for a photo by the beach on the Spanish island.
The 37-year-old turned heads as she looked just like a supermodel in the sun-soaked snap.
She uploaded a series of snaps from her getaway with the caption: "72 hours of fun & frolics."
During one wild night out, she could be seen cuddling up to Love Island host Maya as they danced side-by-side at one of Ibiza's A-list parties.
Appearing to match their outfits, both ladies added a sparkle of silver as they appeared to be lapping up their VIP treatment.
Both the stars later confirmed they's kept going until 7AM as they shared a TikTok of them returning to their hotel room in time to watch the sunrise after the party.
Dressed in their white robes, they could be seen with a stunning view of the sea from their plush apartment which they appeared to be sharing.
AJ captioned the funny clip: "This and burger and chips at 7am."
Maya said of their evening: "Yeah, we lied... we were dancing and we ended it with some f***ing burger and chips."
The presenter's outing comes hot off the heels of Maya's Love Island hosting stint and ahead of AJ preparing to return to Big Brother next month.

Sainsbury's 'gorgeous' £24 summer top reminds fans of Damson Madder The retailer has delighted fashion fans with the 'stunning' top that has some saying it resembles another popular brand Fashion lovers said they 'need' the denim look (Image: Sainsbury's Tu) Shoppers say they love a 'gorgeous' £24 top that looks like it could be from Damson Madder. Sainsbury's Tu shoppers heaped praise on the retailer's Denim Gingham Bow Tie Blouse when it was highlighted on TikTok. The trending blouse is available in sizes eight to 26. There's also a £26 Denim Gingham Collared Mini Dress for fans looking for a similar style. For those with their heart set on the blouse, the denim top is available to shop online or in-store. The style boasts a striking gingham print, which could be styled with summer or autumn looks. There's also an attention-grabbing bow, inspired by one of 2025's most popular trends. The product description states: "A modern take on the classic blouse, this piece comes in blue denim with a gingham print throughout - featuring a tie neck collar, button fastening, and long sleeves. It's a staple choice for weekend outings, great styled with neutral camel tones." Sainsbury's adds that the style is 100% cotton and it is machine washable. The style went viral in a post shared by TikTok user @thesoloshopper, which gained over 25,000 views and thousands of likes. The caption said: "Damson Madder [alternative] at TU Sainsburys? TU new in is giving autumn vibes and I am here for it!" Content cannot be displayed without consent Article continues below Fashion fans shared the sentiment. One commenter said: "I looked at that yesterday. Lovely quality too," and @ thesoloshopper agreed: " It really is! They've done well with this one." Another wrote: "Oh wow." Someone else shared: "OMG I LOVE HERRRR." More praise read: "This is stunning," while a keen shopper added: "No stop it!! I simply need it." Replying to a different comment, @ thesoloshopper wrote: "Gorgeous isn't she." Yet another positive comment said: "RUNNING TO SAINOS," and a Sainsbury's fan added: "TU clothing always has good stuff!" @ thesoloshopper agreed, saying: "Always!! So much better than a lot of high street shops now." Although the shopper didn't reference a particular Damson Madder style, the Sainsbury's blouse arguably looks similar to something shoppers could find from the sustainable fashion brand. The brand's designs often go viral, featuring details such as colourful prints, oversized collars, and bows, reports the Mirror. Sainsbury's Denim Gingham Bow Tie Blouse (Image: Sainsbury's) For shoppers who aren't familiar with the brand, Damson Madder says quality is central to its design ethos. The website states: "Every Damson Madder piece is crafted to endure, to be worn, loved, and reworn. Our hope is that through considered design and intentional production, our garments become long-standing fixtures in your wardrobe — never destined for landfill, but made to last." Article continues below The beloved brand does offer sales, but the prices are usually higher than those offered by supermarket retailers such as Sainsbury's. For example, Damson Madder's Mari vest top- red gingham costs £42.50 on sale, marked down from £85. Of course, shoppers will have their own preferences. However, for those seeking a denim blouse under £30, the Sainsbury's style might be just the thing. Alternatively, fashion fans could prefer the Denim Gingham Collared Mini Dress. The product description says: "This denim dress is an easy-to-wear piece which adds classic styling to your wardrobe. Designed in a gingham print, it comes in a mini length. Adorned with a collar detail and tie-fastening, finished with buttons at the front."

Darius Danesh's ex-wife speaks out after he died after refusing operation
Darius Danesh's ex-wife speaks out after he died after refusing operation Darius Campbell Danesh' ex-wife Natasha Henstridge has shared a heartfelt tribute to the singer on the third anniversary of his death Darius Campbell (formerly Danesh) who rose to fame after coming third in ITV's Pop Idol show and had number one hits in the UK with both his debut single and album. (Image: ITV/REX/Shutterstock) Darius Campbell Danesh's former wife has paid tribute to the late singer on the third anniversary of his death. The former Pop Idol star passed away suddenly at the age of 41 in August 2022 after inhaling chloroethane - also known as ethyl chloride - at his Minnesota flat. Three years after the tragedy, 50 year old Canadian actress Natasha Henstridge - who petitioned for divorce from the Colourblind singer in 2013, following just over two years of marriage - has confessed she still misses him deeply. Sharing a collection of photographs of Darius, including one showing the pair posing before the Eiffel Tower in Paris. She wrote on Instagram on August 11: "Love and light always. Miss you today.... Sending love to the Danesh's and everyone whose life he touched." According to his partner, Darius had been "living with a broken neck" and an undiagnosed cardiac condition when he passed away, reports the Mirror. Darius Danesh made his first appearance in Popstars but did not have any success (Image: ITV) Lauren Cheek revealed that a post-mortem examination showed his heart was "twice the size" it should have been and that she believes he used the recreational anaesthetic to ease his pain. Article continues below She told The Sun on Sunday newspaper: "Darius was living with this heart condition that he didn't know he had. So many things could have taken him, but this one thing did, and he died in his sleep. "His mum told me they only found out after they did the autopsy. His heart was twice the size it was supposed to be, which was fitting, because that is genuinely how he was - he had so much love. "The autopsy also found he was living with a broken neck, but he refused to get help or complain about it. I think he used (chloroethane) because he was in so much pain and he didn't want to take pills, not even aspirin. That's what killed him - the substance mixed with his heart and he couldn't take it." Lauren continued by revealing that Darius - who rose to prominence after delivering an unforgettable performance of Britney Spears' chart-topper '...Baby One More Time' on the ITV talent programme Popstars before launching a series of successful singles and later starring in West End productions - had suffered his injuries during racing alongside Hollywood star Gerard Butler and consistently "refused" her pleas to seek medical attention. She continued: "He was with Gerry (Butler) in Monaco for the Grand Prix and they slammed into a wall during a race with the Prince of Monaco. I don't think it ever fully healed and then he rebroke it because he got hit by a car in London a year or two before he died when he was riding a bike. "And then he got into a car accident with his dad in Scotland. D was in the passenger seat, his dad was driving and someone drove into them. "He was always in pain and I would beg him to see the doctor, but he refused. He was trying to find a natural remedy." Declining surgery Darius had been struggling with severe neck pain following two separate motor vehicle collisions. The initial incident happened in Spain during 2010, leaving him with a fractured neck. In a previous interview with HELLO!, he revealed how he came within just 'three millimetres from death'. The performer had been enjoying a driving holiday with friends and was travelling on the motorway during scorching weather conditions. "Because of the haze, we didn't see that there was a diesel spill on the road. Before we could work out what was going on, it was already too late," he explained. "The car careered out of control on a bend, and we smashed into a wall at 70mph. My first recollection is my friend, the driver, asking if I was ok." He continued by describing how he recalled experiencing a "sharp pain" in his neck before losing consciousness. After the crash, Darius was reportedly presented with the option of neck surgery that could have been transformative, but the entertainer notably refused the treatment due to concerns it might affect his singing voice. Article continues below His discomfort progressively worsened over time, and a subsequent road traffic accident in 2021 further aggravated his condition. Rather than undergoing the operation, Darius allegedly managed the 'intense nerve pain' through cannabis, pain medication, and an anaesthetic substance, the last of which tragically led to 'respiratory arrest'.

‘I travelled to Scotland on beautiful 8-hour sleeper train but price will make you wince'
A man has shared his experience of travelling on the Caledonian Sleeper from London to Edinburgh - but viewers were left baffled by the price of the luxury train ride A travel influencer made a bold claim about his experience aboard Scotland's sleeper train. But his followers have been left astounded by the price tag that comes with the journey. TikTok user GeorgeInLondon documented his journey from London to Edinburgh on the Caledonian Sleeper, a service that operates every weeknight and Sunday. The train features overnight cabins and takes approximately eight hours to reach Edinburgh 's Waverley Station. The Caledonian Sleeper services also stop at other key Scottish destinations including Glasgow, Aberdeen, Fort William and Inverness. Dundee, Arbroath and Motherwell are also on the route for some lines, which can take up to 12 hours to travel. As such, the splendour of the Scottish landscape is on show for all passengers to see during the lighter months. Despite the train's appeal being partly due to the breathtaking Scottish landscapes it passes through, George admitted he "didn't get the opportunity to see" these owing to his autumn travel dates. He even plans to rebook in spring or summer to ensure he doesn't miss out again. George opted for a club en-suite, but there are various accommodation options available. Passengers can select a seat in the main coach or pay extra for a 'classic' twin bunk bed cabin. Alternatively, they can follow George's example with the club en-suite, or splurge on the top-tier Caledonian Double en-suite, which boasts a double bed and shower room. In a video posted on TikTok, George expressed his delight with the experience, gushing that he "absolutely loved it". He found the cabin "so cosy", and commended the "soft" duvet and pillows provided for his trip. The cabin was equipped with USB charging ports, plug sockets, and a reading light, while the en-suite facilities comprised a shower, toilet, and sink. He added: "You are also given sleep packs which include an eye mask and earplugs. I'd say if you are a lighter sleeper, you might need these. "But for me, the sounds and movement of the train definitely added to the whole experience and I really did feel like I was travelling up on the Hogwarts Express. "It was so cool, but I would recommend only bringing hand luggage with you just to give yourself enough space as possible you can store bags underneath your bed. "If you do have bigger bags, then speak to the train staff and they'll be able to help store your bags for you outside of your cabin." Those who opt for the club cabins also gain access to the club car, a place where passengers can indulge in a late-night tipple, dinner, specials and a morning breakfast - which George described as "delicious". Additionally, club cabin bookers are granted entry to an exclusive lounge at London Euston that provides complimentary refreshments and shower facilities for use before or after the journey. However, not all viewers were as impressed as George. After watching his review, some expressed their surprise and disappointment at the cost of travelling on the Caledonian Sleeper. One user labelled the service a "rip off" and another lamented that it "cost more than an all-inclusive in Greece". A further dissatisfied customer commented: "I've done this and it's the bumpiest, loudest journey, you'll get zero sleep and it costs a fortune." For those looking to travel on the Caledonian Sleeper from London Euston to Edinburgh during the first weekend of April 2026, a seat in the main coach is priced at £54 per person. For those desiring a bit more comfort, the cost can soar to nearly five times that for a private cabin. A classic twin bunk bedroom with a washbasin will set travellers back £250, regardless of the number of occupants, while the club en-suite preferred by George is priced at £285 for all guests. At the top end, the "flagship" Caledonian double en-suite commands a price of £380 for all guests.
