Michelle Keegan showcases her jaw-dropping figure in brown bikini just four months after giving birth
The former Coronation Street star, 38, posed beside a sun-soaked pool in a chocolate brown bandeau bikini from her Orfila Bee swimwear line.
She completed the sizzling look with a white linen shirt, sarong and cowboy hat.
Michelle's glam Instagram post comes hot on the heels of her return to work after welcoming daughter Palma in March.
She recently jetted off to Bulgaria for her latest acting project, sharing behind-the-scenes snaps from a film set abroad.
Since becoming a mum, Michelle has been living it up with luxury holidays, red carpet appearances and a major new deal with Sky, all while flaunting her enviable post-baby figure in skimpy swimwear from her fashion range.
But while fans are flooding her comments with praise, writing things like 'Beautiful'...'You look absolutely incredible ❤️' and 'Stunning' not everyone is impressed.
It comes after Michelle posed for a slew of smiley snaps with her crewmates last week, during filming in Bulgaria for a secret new project.
The actress looked like she was having the time of her life in a slew of behind-the-scenes snaps giving her fans a glimpse of her mystery job with Sky.
It was recently revealed the mother-of-one has signed a six-figure advertising deal to become the new face of the media company.
And Michelle looked to be laughing all the way to the bank as she larked about on the set with her hairstylist, makeup artist, talent agency and fashion stylist during breaks from filming.
She could be seen sitting with the crew in a line of black director's chairs, which were labelled - confirming the project to be a collaboration between Sky Creative and B2Y Productions.
Michelle captioned the photos: 'Bulgaria files… with the best of the best ✨'.

The deal will reportedly see Michelle film a series of promo clips with fellow British actor Idris Elba, who already appears as the 'face' of Sky.
The former soap star has brought along her baby daughter Palma on her work trip, her first major job since she gave birth to the little girl in March.
It's believed the couple chose the name Palma because of their strong llinks to the Spanish island of Mallorca, which has been their go-to holiday destination for years and the setting for their pregnancy reveal photo shoot.
Michelle found fame as Tina McIntyre on Coronation Street in 2007, before leaving the ITV soap in 2014.
Her career then took off, with hits such as BBC military drama Our Girl, Sky's Brassic and BBC's Australian drama Ten Pound Poms.
While her biggest success came last year, when she scored the starring role of Maya Stern in Netflix's Harlan Coben thriller Fool Me Once - which racked up more than 100 million views globally.

We are going to have a sick festival with an acoustic tent, a dance tent, a pop tent.' Asked if big names such as David Guetta and Little Mix would perform at the festival, Becky said: 'I'd like to think so. As long as they don't all need paying, yes. I'll be like, 'I'll give you cake'. Just let me get album two out of the way.' Commenting on Charlie's marriage proposal, she added: I was like, 'Shut the f*** up!' It was mad.

'I recently went to Poland and I was asked about being queer in an interview and what it meant considering I had a boyfriend who was in a heterosexual relationship.' The Wish You Well songstress continued: 'I answered it very honestly - as I would always answer any question I get asked. 'But it's difficult when attitudes in certain areas of the world haven't been brought up to the same date as us. 'Everybody's got to come into the 21st century, everybody's got to get used to the idea that queer people are here and not going anywhere.' 'Hopefully people will start to love the queer community as much as I do.' She previously told Attitude: 'I felt a bit like an imposter because I've had a boyfriend for five and a half years… I feel much better now I am under the queer umbrella.

'I know I enjoy sleeping with women, to what degree of that I don't know, but I'd rather call myself queer and name it for what it is, than have men fantasise over the idea that I might be bi-curious or like a cheeky threesome here and there.'

Love Island Ofcom complaints skyrocket to 9000 as viewers blast 'abusive' behaviour leaving stars 'broken' - and ANOTHER on-screen romp in shared bedroom sparks major backlash
Love Island Ofcom complaints have skyrocketed to a whopping 9000. Viewers of the ITV2 dating show have blasted the 'abusive' behaviour that has left stars 'broken' and ANOTHER on-screen romp which has sparked major backlash. 9,339 viewers were very unhappy some of the scenes that occurred during the programme - with the majority being about the alleged bullying towards Shakira Khan, 22. The complaints were registered with Ocfcom and now the watchdog is investigating the show. Shakira and Harry Cooksley, 30, recently got back together after he went exclusive with Helena Ford, 29, leaving her heartbroken. The trio had been involved in a very messy love triangle from the very start of the series, after originally coupling up with Shakira, and then deciding to be with Helena. Many have questioned Harry's behaviour throughout the show. Despite sharing their concern over Shakira, many have taken to X, formerly known as Twitter, to share how well Shakira has been perceived. 'Shakira is the most respectful, self aware, mature person in Love Island history, never mind the fact that she's only 22.' 'Shakira is so real that she's willing to leave the villa without a man or winning instead of faking it with Conor till the end, if anything we can be proud of her for staying true to herself, but damn Harry?!?' '"I do like him, I just don't like him enough," you know what Shakira that's real.' 'Well you can't say Shakira is a game player! She could have faked it with Ty and Conor to get to the final and potentially win but looks like she dgaf about winning or getting to the final.' Duty of care is available to all Islanders 24/7. But 29 people did take to Ofcom to share their concerns about Harry after he opened up about his true feelings towards Shakira. The publication reported that 298 were made about the way Blu Chegini, 26, spoke to Toni Laites, 24, during an argument - and accused the star of 'stirring drama' to get more 'air time' as final approaches. Megan Clarke, 24, made a shock return to the villa last week after getting brutally dumped from the villa - and this led onto 55 complains about it. Daily Mail contacted ITV for comment. Meanwhile others took to social media to share their complaints about some of the Islanders getting frisky in the communal bedroom. Earlier this week viewers pointed out that Meg Moore, x, and Dejon Noel-Williams, x, had close under the sheets during Monday and Tuesday's episodes. One said on X: 'Meg and Dejon having sex is making me sick I'm making a complaint to OFCOM.' 'Ffs every night Meg and Dejon having sex save our eyes plz.' 'I do not want to see Meg and Dejon having sex twice producers. My day is ruined.' 'I feel like Meg and Dejon is sexually assaulting me in my own home. Please don't ever show them having sex on my screen again please!' 'WE DON'T WANT TO SEE MEG AND DEJON HAVING SEX.' Last week it was revealed that Love Island had racked up more than one thousand Ofcom complaints with fans appalled by the 'misogyny and bullying' on the ITV2 show, which has reduced stars to tears. The recent few weeks of the series have been full of drama, so it's no surprise that viewers have taken to the telly regulator to share their concerns. The complaints that have been made have been registered with Ofcom, the regulator will not be investigating the show. According to The Sun, a whopping 280 people took to the broadcasting watchdog to shared their complaints over Harrison Solomon, 22, Dejon Noel-Williams, 26, and 30-year-old Harry Cooksley's alleged misogynic behaviour. Meanwhile others (247 people) shared their concern about Shakira after some alleged bullying. And there are some episodes in particular that concerned viewers. The instalment that aired on July 20 received a number of complaints - including 222 viewers that weren't happy about Dejon's behaviour towards women. And a number of islanders raised some eyebrows on July 17. 69 people complained about Harrison's alleged misogynic behaviour and a further 27 took to the regulator to share concern about Shakira's well-being. Love Island's episode on July 15 bagged 184 in total about a number of different things. 107 people complained about Harrison's alleged misogynic behaviour and 44 weren't happy with how Lauren Wood, 26, was perceived on the show. 34 others thought that there was some bullying behaviour towards Shakira and Toni. Before entering the villa, the show share a number of care protocols with the stars, including training in language and behaviour. They are also told to suspend social media and are given ongoing support before, during and after they take part in the programme. ITV's official website states: 'Programme contributors will be offered a full package of measures to ensure they remain supported prior to, during and after the filming period on the show. 'After an initial trial period, the show will now formally introduce a guideline asking participants to pause social media handles and accounts for the duration of their time on the show, to ensure that both the Islanders and their families are protected from the adverse effects of social media.' The welfare services that islanders are offered include: comprehensive psychological support, training on impacts of socal media, financial management, conversations regarding the impact of participation on the show. They are also offered an aftercare package and guidance and advice on taking on management.

Foo Fighters announce new drummer after bitter split from Taylor Hawkins' replacement – and he's familiar face to fans
THE Foo Fighters have had more members than the Sugababes at this point and now the newest person joining the rock band has been unveiled. The iconic group, which released a new song last month, have found the perfect replacement and it's somebody fans will already recognise – it's none other than Nine Inch Nails drummer Ilan Rubin. 4 4 4 Ilan, 37, has had tremendous success as Nine Inch Nails' touring drummer since 2009 and was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2020, making him the youngest-ever entrant at the time at 32 years old. Rock fans will also know Ilan as he's been the drummer for Angels & Airwaves since 2005. The exciting development comes after previous drummer Josh Freese was axed from the group back in May after two years. He joined the band in 2023 following the tragic death of Taylor Hawkins, who died suddenly while on tour in Colombia in March 2022. The group had reportedly called Josh at the time to tell him they were 'going in a different direction' with no further explanation given. Josh, 52, shared a picture of his statement revealing his departure from the legendary group, captioning it simply on Instagram: 'Well, there it is.' In the emotional post, he wrote: 'The Foo Fighters called me Monday night to let me know they've decided 'to go in a different direction with their drummer.' No reason was given. :( 'Regardless, I enjoyed the past two years with them, both on and off stage, and I support whatever they feel is best for the band. 'In my 40 years of drumming professionally, I've never been let go from a band, so while I'm not angry - just a bit shocked and disappointed. 'But as most of you know, I've always worked freelance and bounced between bands, so, I'm fine. 'Stay tuned for my 'Top 10 possible reasons Josh got booted from the Foo Fighters' list.' According to The Hollywood Reporter, while Ilan has joined the Foo Fighters, Josh is returning to Nine Inch Nails. The news has been confirmed with the band sharing a story of Josh and tagging him with a caption that reads: 'Let's f*****g go.' It's still unclear whether Ilan is joining Foo Fighters as a full-time member or as a touring drummer. As die-hard Foo Fighters fans are aware, the band is fronted by Dave Grohl as vocalist and guitarist and also features bassist Nate Mendel, guitarists Pat Smear and Chris Shiflett and keyboardist Rami Jaffee. The band was formed in 1994 after Grohl created Foo Fighters to release solo music after Nirvana broke up the same year. During their three decade-long career, the group has released eleven studio albums, four compilation albums, one live album, four extended plays and ten Foo Files EPs. 4
