Chloe Madeley flaunts her gym-honed figure as she poses TOPLESS for a very racy snap during sun-soaked holiday in France
The personal trainer, 38, flaunted her gym-honed frame in a skimpy blue bikini before removing her top while standing in a swimming pool.
Clearly having the time of her life, Chloe posed with her arms in the air as she faced away from the camera while her friend Julia snapped the picture.
The daughter of TV presenters Richard Madeley and Judy Finnigan showed off her bottom while wearing just the skimpy bottoms.
In another snap, Chloe looked in good spirits as she showed off her figure in the bikini while walking into the swimming pool.
Leaving her long blonde tresses loose, the TV personality shielded from the sun behind a pair of sunglasses.
During the getaway, Chloe was joined by pal Julia and daughter Bodhi Haskell, two, who she shares with ex-husband James Haskell.
She also shared a sweet snap cuddling her baby girl before lunch and a stunning selfie during a walk.
Her holiday comes after she revealed she is 'committed to staying single'.
While Chloe has stayed single, her ex James has been linked to two ladies since they split. Most recently, it was claimed he was dating Big Brother star Sara McLean.
As James's new romance came to light earlier this year, Chloe also took to Instagram to share a cryptic post about 'negative energy'.
Her clip featured a sheep running around a field with a bucket on its head, hinting it was blissfully unaware, and she wrote over the top: 'Me: It's so nice in here.
'She's at a place in her life where peace is a priority and negativity cannot exist. She is no longer matching energy.
'She is simply removing herself from any situation that doesn't vibrate her soul. So if you start moving funny, she's moving on.'
James and Sara were seen holding hands as they headed to the races on the second day of the Cheltenham Festival in February.
Sara, a beauty queen and reality star has previously dated US World Cup goalie hero Tim Howard, rugby star Ben Cohen, cricket legend Shane Warne and TOWIE's Mario Falcone.
In January, James was linked to newly single mother-of-two Helen Barclay, who bore a striking resemblance to Chloe.
Yet the relationship appears to have fizzled out, with James pictured parading his new romance with Sara at the horse racing-based meeting.
His ex-wife Chloe previously revealed she knows the former Wasps flanker has been 'having fun' seeing other people, but maintained the pair still have a healthy relationship as they continue to co-parent.
Sara is a former Miss Edinburgh and Big Brother contestant who shocked Housemates when she gave a tearful rendition of God Save The Queen, before going on a rant about people who hate the royal family.
James and Chloe announced their split in October 2023 after several months of speculation their marriage was on the rocks.
During Chloe's ITV reality show, Chloe Madeley: A Family Affair, which aired around the same time they announced their split, cracks in their relationship were apparent.

GB snowboarder opens up on crash that threatened to end career
GB Snowsport freestyle snowboarder Maisie Hill, 24, suffered severe, life-threatening injuries in a crash during training in Switzerland in January 2023. The incident, where she hit a wall of ice at high speed, caused a lacerated liver, punctured lung, major brain bleed, and multiple broken bones, leading doctors to suggest she might never walk again. Despite the initial prognosis, Hill made a remarkable recovery, returning to snowboarding within nine months of the crash. Her ability to resume her career was significantly aided by a grant from the Olympic Solidarity programme, which she described as life-changing. Hill is now focused on qualifying for the Milano Cortina Olympic Winter Games in February 2026, having recently achieved a fifth-place finish at an Austrian World Cup.

Kate Ferdinand on her chaotic and ‘special' life with Rio and their five kids
With five children aged between two and 19, Kate Ferdinand admits family life is 'special and crazy and loving and loud'. The former The Only Way is Essex (TOWIE) cast member, who has two young children with her husband, the former footballer Rio Ferdinand, and is stepmum to his three teenage children, happily agrees family life, and particularly mealtimes, is chaotic – and very special too. 'The chaos!' she says with a laugh. 'There's five kids and it's so loud I can't even tell you, you can't even hear yourself think. There's a lot of over-stimulation. But also, it's so special and crazy and loving and loud and everything that you could wish it to be. 'The bond between the kids is amazing.' Ferdinand married former England and Manchester United captain Rio in 2019, becoming stepmum to his three children Lorenz, now 19, Tate, 17, and Tia, 14, from his first marriage to Rebecca Ellison, who died of breast cancer in 2015 at the age of just 34. Kate also has two children – Cree, aged four, and Shae, two, with Rio, and founded a podcast, Blended, to 'celebrate' blended families. The two eldest boys are both footballers for Brighton & Hove Albion and live away from home, but Ferdinand says they both come home regularly and she tries to make sure the whole family sits down for meals together whenever possible. 'Sitting at the table and having dinner is a massive thing in our house – I feel like it's massive for talking,' she explains. 'It's where everything comes out, where you reconnect after the day, but it doesn't happen every single night, because obviously the big boys don't live at home any more because they play football. 'We're a very sporty household and our kids have a lot of clubs, so it's near impossible to get everyone there every night.' The Ferdinand's aren't alone in finding it tough to all get together for dinner – new research from HelloFresh has found almost one in three (31.8%) of parents questioned say their children's hobbies and club schedules make it difficult to share dinner together midweek, and the the situation gets worse once school term begins again, with 62% of parents saying mealtimes feel 'more squeezed'. But, like Ferdinand, more than half of parents (55%) agree that shared mealtimes are beneficial for children's development and a great chance for the family to reconnect. So Ferdinand has teamed up with HelloFresh to encourage families to set aside at least one night a week to sit down together for a family meal. 'We eat together when we're all at home – we sit at the table, that's part of our family routine,' Ferdinand says. 'Don't get me wrong. The little ones are wanting to run off, but I try and be quite firm with it. They have to ask to leave the table, and they've got to take their plate up. It's quite funny, Shae's only two, and she actually takes her plate up and puts it on the side. 'We all love it because we're all talking at the dinner table – everyone's so busy, but we reconnect. And it's mental, and there's food getting thrown about everywhere, drinks are being spilled. But it's the one time we're all together, normally.' Fortunately, the Ferdinands have an extendable dining table, because as well as the seven family members, she says the boys sometimes bring their girlfriends for dinner, and meals can be for 12-16 people. Kate does the cooking, but she does get help from all the family, including Rio – if she asks for it. 'The kids are great,' she says. 'I have to ask for help, but when I do ask, they help me. We all have our own little jobs – I'll do the cooking, the kids lay the table, they help with the washing up and the tidying up. There's a bit of teamwork, really. 'Rio's very good at seasoning the meat – it's a bit of a collaboration. To be honest, Rio carves for me and then pretends he made the meal. 'But if Rio's home, he'll cook as well. Everyone gets involved.' Even the older boys will lend a hand with cooking, and their proud stepmum says: 'Tate's just turned 17, and he loves cooking. He actually thinks he's better than me. And that's a little debate in our house – I've said cook a few more times for me, and I'll let you know.' She says that while Tate cooks for himself, he's yet to cook a meal for the whole family. 'Everything changes when you're cooking for seven people,' she says. 'When the quantities go up, it becomes a little bit more difficult!' But she hopes he'll give catering for the whole clan a try one day, and says: 'As a parent, you always want to do everything for your kids, and it's only in recent years that I've realised you've really got to let them make mistakes and try stuff themselves and take a step back so they can thrive. 'That's something I used to struggle with, but now I've been doing a bit more of that, and it's paid off so much, because you can just see them thriving in so many aspects of their life.' But with such a busy life as a wife, mum and podcaster, how does Ferdinand herself thrive? Speaking when all the kids are out and the house is peaceful for once, she says: 'Don't get me wrong, it's the summer holidays now, and I'm glad they've gone out so I can make calls for a few hours.' She agrees it's nice to get a bit of peace sometimes, and says: 'Absolutely – I think any parent that doesn't say that might be fibbing.' She occasionally manages to wangle a bit of 'me-time' – although it might take getting up at the crack of dawn to do it. 'It's not a real representation when it's the summer holidays,' she explains. 'But normally when the kids are at school and I'm not working, I'll prioritise doing things like trying to get some me-time – this morning I got up extra-early and took the dog out for a walk at 6.45am just to have a minute. 'Because sometimes I feel like you need to give yourself 10 minutes, even if it's just walking around the block, just to think before the day starts. It's not a half a day in the spa like it was years and years ago, pre-kids, but it's just about finding those moments.' Kate Ferdinand is a Back to School ambassador for the recipe box delivery service HelloFresh and is showing how prioritising just one meal together a week has improved her family's wellbeing.
