Inka Williams has no doubt left new boyfriend Channing Tatum lost for words after sharing snaps from an ethereal photoshoot in which she posed naked.
The Melbourne-born but Bali-raised model left little to the imagination in a recent dump of stunning images posted to her Instagram.
The 25-year-old channelled her inner Greek goddess for the oceanic-themed photoshoot with her long-time friend, photographer Amberly Valentine, behind the camera in the Bali studio.
In one photo, Williams went nude with nothing but a sheer, cream sheet of material that was draped over the front of her body and flowed behind her.

Fellow Australians and fans took to the comments section of the post in awe of her beauty.
Artist Mahinanani Alexander said: 'Absolutely stunning. You two always make magic🙌😍.'
Williams seemingly took influencer Tammy Hembrow's breath away, commenting with the single word: 'Wow.'
One fan questioned: 'Is the studio on top of Mount Olympus??'
'These are some of the prettiest photos I've ever seen 😍 obsessed with the shell one,' another fan said.
'The seashell shots are absolutely stunning, but they're all so ethereal, and you look like a goddess,' a third added.
Williams has made headlines of late after she was rumoured to be dating Hollywood heavyweight Channing Tatum, who called off his engagement with Zoe Kravitz in October.
A few months later, Tatum stepped out with Williams at a pre-Oscars party, which seemingly confirmed the actor had moved on.
In April, Williams confirmed the relationship on Instagram by wishing Tatum a happy birthday.
'Happy life to the handsomest, kindest, funniest, stoopidest, most gorgeous human ever !!!' she wrote in an Instagram Story that included nine photos of the couple together.
'Merci for making life beautiful and fun.'
She ended her post with some French slang that translates to 'I love you' in English: 'Jtm trop fort.'
Williams, who co-founded fashion brand She Is I in 2019, has been modelling since was a baby but turned the hobby into a career at the age of 15.
She is signed to IMG Models, which describes Williams as someone who is 'fashion savvy' and has 'chameleon-like flexibility'.

Iconic Australian migrant story returns to the stage

Stephen Nicolazzo felt like throwing away his culture as a kid but is now using it to bring an Aussie classic to the national stage. Born of Melina Marchetta's iconic 1992 book and award-winning film starring Pia Miranda, Looking for Alibrandi the stage show has embarked on a first national tour. The story follows feisty protagonist Josie Alibrandi as she navigates her final year at a prestigious Catholic girls' school in Sydney. Along the way she finds her father, falls in love and grapples with her identity as a third-generation Italian growing up in Australia. It's an experience Nicolazzo shared as the grandson of Italian migrants. In primary school, the now 38-year-old was embarrassed to pronounce Italian words his classmates struggled with. "You want to throw away your culture and your ethnicity when you're younger because of all of the pressures of being discriminated against," he told AAP. "That's a really strange feeling because you lock away a part of yourself as a result of the pressures of expectation." The lived experience of young Australians from Italian cultures has improved over the past 30 years. "But there are many other migrants who have come to this country since the book was written," Nicolazzo said. "They're experiencing the same discrimination and tensions that Josie faced." The production highlights important issues of acceptance and tolerance, and is relatable to a wide audience. Nicolazzo points to the story's universal recognition of concepts like having to deal with over-bearing family members or being spoken to in a certain way. "The people that watch it are sobbing and laughing because there's a familiarity to it that goes beyond nostalgia," he said. The show first graced Sydney and Melbourne stages in 2022 and has since undergone script changes to enrich one of Jose's love interests, John Barton. "The audience is getting the best version of the show, which is five years in the making," Nicolazzo said. Three new cast members have also joined the fold, including 23-year-old graduate Riley Warner, who plays Josie's knockabout boyfriend Jacob Cootes. The rising star is debuting in his first stage show, having met Nicolazzo as a student. "There's something about him that feels like a national audience needs to see him right away," Nicolazzo said. The show next appears in Sydney on June 11 before heading across NSW, Victoria and South Australia. Nicolazzo hopes audience members take one key message from his production. "It's about finding freedom from the shackles of a culture that doesn't want you to be a part of It," he said. "That's a hard thing to do but we can only do it by making art and talking to people."

Jelena Dokic opens up about father's death

It's been nearly a month since Jelena Dokic announced her abusive father's passing, and she is still trying to work out how she feels. In May, Jelena confirmed the death of her 67-year-old father, Damir, on social media, who subjected her to years of torment, abuse and physical violence on and off the in the booth of a cafe in Melbourne, the former No. 4 tennis player-turned-commentator and public speaker told NewsWire she knew her father's death 'would happen at some stage' but is still 'working through' her grieving process, which is more complicated than she anticipated. 'I've been estranged from my father for nearly 10 years, and it is what it is,' she said. 'The one thing I'm realising … whether you've had a good experience with a parent or a bad one, it comes with a complicated kind of grief, closure, or the way that chapter ends.'She found out about her estranged father's death while she was 'right in the middle of work and a lot of commitments', leaving her without much room to process the loss. 'For me, it's different type of grief,' she told NewsWire. 'Maybe not even grief, but more so like closure or a chapter that's kind of finished, but from an estranged parent.' Jelena Dokic has opened up about her father's death in mid-May. NewsWire / Andrew Henshaw Credit: News Corp Australia But it's in the quiet times with her small circle of friends, who she refers to as her 'ride or dies', where she can peel away the layers and let the grief settle. Growing up concealing the abuse and suffering she lived with every day led to feelings of shame and fear, building up emotional walls to shield her painful experience from others as she tried to fight the battle alone. A self-admitted introvert, it hasn't been easy for her to develop trustworthy and loyal relationships over her career, as a combination of constantly travelling the world in tennis tournaments and the abuse she was subjected to by her father put a pin in any chance of forging meaningful connections with others her own age. 'Some victims of and survivors of domestic violence and abuse … are not allowed to make friends,' she told NewsWire. 'Anyone that gets close, (the abuser will) get rid of them, especially when we're young.' 'Making friends for a very long time was not even possible, but then later it was difficult because I didn't kind of have those social skills,' she said. Jelena said the relentless abuse caused her to struggle with social skills and opening up to people.

She is currently in the process of writing a third book – which will hit bookshelves late next year – this time revealing the mindset and self-development she has gained. The former tennis champion is a judge for the QV 50 Awards. NewsWire / Andrew Henshaw Credit: News Corp Australia She's encouraging others to speak out and share their stories. NewsWire / Andrew Henshaw Credit: News Corp Australia Jelena has been very outspoken about the abuse she has received over the years, be it from her father through the first two decades of her life, where she was subjected to unnerving physical violence and loathsome verbal attacks, to hateful messages from bullies on social media. She told NewsWire she isn't afraid to 'block and delete' the online trolls that try to weasel in and pollute her positive mission.'I see one vile sentence, I delete straight away,' she said. 'I don't even read the rest of it, and that's the best way to go about it.' Jelena's dad Damir died in May. Instagram Credit: Supplied Hit with crashing waves of depression, anxiety, eating disorders and PTSD throughout her life, Jelena has always found a way to stand back up, brush herself off and face every battle head-on, determined to keep moving forward. 'It was my goal in life, especially post-tennis, to do everything with kindness, to do it with grace and dignity,' she said. She wants others who may have experienced or currently living through similar circumstances to know they are 'not alone', and they're braver than they realise. 'I always believed I can get to that stage where one day I can smile, where one day I get through (the abuse) and I … always try to believe that I am worthy and that it's not my fault,' she said. Her strength and passion for raising awareness about mental health, bullying and childhood and domestic violence continues to drive her forward and inspire others to speak out. 'I can't change the world alone, none of us can, but we can change someone's world,' she said. 'If we can change things for that one person and be there for them, be kind and loving and accepting, you can literally not only change someone's life, but save their life.' She is currently working on her third book, which will be published next year. NewsWire / Andrew Henshaw\ Credit: News Corp Australia Jelena is one of two panellists taking part in the QV 50 Awards, which celebrated and brings a spotlight to everyday Aussies who make an impact on the world around QV 50 Awards is honouring three people who have made an effort to care for an individual, the community and other causes, and giving them a chance to win $10,000 and an all-expenses paid trip to the ceremony in Melbourne, which takes place in August 2025.
