Dua Lipa sizzles as she strips down to barely-there bikini for sun-soaked Ibiza holiday with pals ahead of milestone 30th birthday
The Houdini singer, 29, took to Instagram to share her sun-soaked trip with pals to her whopping 88million followers on the platform.
In one snap, Dua posed on a luxury yacht with a pal as she showed off her slim and bronzed physique as the sun shone down on them both.
She donned a daring burgundy and blue two-piece bikini that left little to the imagination for the boat day on the Spanish island with her close friends.
The quirky two-piece looked like she was wearing one bikini on top of the other.
While enjoying the getaway, the hitmaker also took time to look after her health, as she performed a handstand on a paddle board while working on her core strength in the crystal-clear water.
She captioned her pictures: 'So far - so good - sun, sea, the bestest of bestfriends, dancing til 6am, long long dinners, flamenco, BIG HUGS and a METEOR SHOWER!!!!!!! ☄️ feeling v lucky n loved.'
Another snap from her summer getaway showed Dua in a white vest top paired with a sheer white skirt, which she wore as evening wear.
Dua also rocked a black bikini for her sun-drenched trip, with the popstar treating fans to a variety of poses.
The wholesome trip also saw Dua and her pals host a movie night under the stars, while they also enjoyed group hugs and a large sit-down dinner as the sunset.
Her trip away comes ahead of her milestone 30th birthday celebrations.
The latest holiday pictures come after Dua embraced a wave of nostalgia on Wednesday as she shared a sweet throwback-inspired post with her sister Rina.
Posting to her Instagram Stories, Dua recreated a treasured childhood photo in which she and her sister sat back-to-back, grinning at the camera.
In the updated version, the siblings struck the same pose - only this time with years of memories between them.
Dua also turned up the heat as she shared a sizzling set of holiday snaps with her fiancé, Callum Turner earlier in the week.

She wowed in a daring custom Jacquemus knit dress that clung to her toned figure and teased glimpses of skin with its racy cut-outs.
From the front, the boatneck number exuded elegance with its delicate knit shimmering with white reflective sequins.
But from the back and sides, the dress set pulses racing - revealing generous flashes of skin that left little to the imagination.
Callum looked every bit the leading man beside her in a crisp blue-and-white shirt and beige trousers.
The pair later swapped the poolside backdrop for a beach club, where Dua continued to share loved-up moments.
Alongside the carousel of snaps, she penned: 'Early birthday celebrations on my favourite island with my favourite people wearing the most gorgeous dress Simon made for me... I can't bloody wait for 30!!!!'
In June, Dua publicly confirmed rumours she was engaged to Callum Turner as she shared her excitement over the actor getting down on one knee.
The singer also enjoyed a feat with her friends as the Spanish sunset behind them, with a view looking out to Ibiza and beyond

In the interview, Dua discussed her family plans, saying she's concerned how having children will fit in with her career as a pop star.
'I'd love to have kids one day,' she said. 'But it's like the constant question of when would there ever be a good time – how it would fit in with my job and how it would work if I went on tour, and how much time out I'd have to take.
'I think it's just one of those things that's going to happen when it happens. I love kids, but I think there's so much more to raising a child than just loving children.'

There's nothing worse than male trouser trouble
First, there was the bizarre tale of the poor unfortunate man who, after dropping his trousers on the District line near Upton Park, was set upon by an outraged gang, beaten and then forcibly expelled from the Tube. And then, just a day or so before, the perpetually beleaguered Gregg Wallace caused a similar degree of opprobrium when he put out a video in which he addressed allegations of bad behaviour involving a lack of trousers. What on earth is going on? On Instagram, Wallace announced, with a touch of the Beowulf poet: 'Would you like the truth about the stories regarding me taking my trousers down, listen! There are no findings in the investigation that I took my trousers down in front of anybody.' He ended his video by repeating, sternly: 'Any claim that the report says differently is not true.' So there we have it. Gregg Wallace may be many things, but he is not a trouser-dropper – unlike the anonymous semi-flasher on the Underground, who definitely was, has now been detained for his own good under the Mental Health Act. A warning, perhaps, to those of us who, now that the weather is becoming disconcertingly warm once again, might fancy a little impromptu chino removal on public transport for our comfort. Yet in truth, the idea of taking down one's trousers is an innate source of English fascination that has been a staple of comedy since Chaucer and Shakespeare, and is likely to remain so until the day we are all wafting round in unisex kimonos. The reason why trousers – more than any other form of attire – are imbued with such comic potential is that the average English gentleman associates them with his dignity. Lose them, and his sang-froid tumbles to the floor along with the fabric. It was no wonder that the Aldwych farces and Carry On films all made considerable weather of their stiff, not-so-buttoned-up characters being compelled to cover their reduced dignity in increasingly absurd circumstances as their breeches sally off into the sunset. I would like to say that the loss of trousers is something that only occurs on stage and in film, but alas, I can testify that it is all too real. In my home city of Oxford, I have seen many cruelly abandoned pairs of formal trews in the street, presumably after a heavily misspent night involving fine wine. Nor is this limited to the young. A friend tells how, after a wild evening on Clapham Common with some newfound friends resulted in his being debagged, he cycled past the scene of the crime the next day to see his once-beloved slacks fluttering mournfully in the wind – the mute observer to whatever unspeakable things had happened in that particular spot. As for the shame's memorialisation in memoir, another friend – a leading light in the entertainment industry – has confessed that, should he ever put finger to keyboard and write his autobiography, it could only be called A Life Without Trousers, so torrid have his exploits in this field been. I would dearly love at this point to confess that I know nothing of such things, but unfortunately I recently had my own narrow brush with infamy. A few months ago, I was strolling along Hampstead Heath with my family when, to our horror, a tree fell just behind us, nearly causing grave hurt, or worse. We scrambled to safety just in time, with no worse injury than a few cuts and bruises – but as I realised that we were largely unharmed, I also realised that the sudden impact on the ground had sent my kecks cascading round my knees. To be found dead and trouserless on Hampstead Heath: now that, I fear, is the end that many of my enemies would wish on me. But I intend to give them the dissatisfaction of continuing to live – with the bottom of my trousers rolled – for many a well-furnished year to come, God willing.

I went on a wellness break to Ibiza and have one piece of advice for anyone hiking
Think the White Isle is all beach clubs and bikinis? We head north, where you can get your sangria served with a generous side of serenity Ibiza might still have a reputation for parties, but away from the beach clubs and crowds, the island's serene north tells a different story - one of pine forests, sea air and soul-soothing stillness. With burnout on the rise in the UK, and *91% of working UK adults reporting that they experienced high stress levels in the past year, there's never been a better time to rethink what a proper break looks like. Enter Cala San Miguel, a five-star adults-only resort that promises to disrupt the stress cycle. The hotel Rebranded and renovated in 2024, Cala San Miguel, part of Hilton's Curio Collection, may be just a 30-minute drive from Ibiza Old Town, but it gives a much more mellow vibe than other places I've stayed on the island. The design is natural and simplistic - white walls, pale woods, woven textures - basically, interiors that match the mood of the landscape. Hotel guests are treated to access to the beach, two outdoor pools, a wellness centre and several dining options, including Mediterranean and Italian cuisine. I was lucky enough to book in for the elevated 'Club' experience, which offers perks like premium breakfast and priority activity access. There are a total of 196 rooms, with options ranging from plush junior suites with private pools to more cosy standard lodgings. My sea view room looked out towards Port de Sant Miguel's glistening cove, with a generous balcony perfect for early reading in the sun or for lounging on with a glass of wine in the evening Eat and drink There are several places to eat on-site, and I had some great meals without ever needing to leave. The poolside Cálido restaurant served some of the best tapas-style lunches I've ever had, and I came back daily for the crispy prawns and chilli aioli combination. For dinner, my top spot was Paseo, which offered panoramic views of the bay and top-quality steak and seafood options. As I was booked into a Club room, I also got access to breakfasts at Na Joaneta, where the fresh buffet saw me returning with my plate for top-ups of delicious pastries a shameful number of times. Also, excitingly, for the 2025 season, Cala San Miguel opened a brand new beachfront restaurant in July: Beach House Cala San Miguel. It wasn't open during my stay, but the plans promised sun-drenched dining right on the sand- think long lunches, chilled rosé and sea-to-table specials. Definitely one I'll be returning for. What's on Where I felt the hotel truly shone was in its entertainment. If you're picturing a lobby singer and the occasional aqua class, think again. They took the time to book value-adding experts. I did the poolside painting class where quite a well-known local artist came to share his tips as we sat sipping complimentary wine with a paintbrush in hand. I also thoroughly enjoyed the Hierbas Ibicencas masterclass, where a local mixologist helped us create our very own herbal alcoholic concoctions in gorgeous glass bottles. If you're keen to exercise, I can also highly recommend booking in for a pilates class, which takes place in the swanky gym overlooking the sea. Out and about Though I did spend plenty of time lounging by the pool and soaking up sunsets while listening to incredible live musicians, I got out and about a lot. Despite the hotel's more remote location, there are plenty of hiking trails, bays to swim in, restaurants and cafes to stop at, and gift shops to peruse. I did a half-day hike into the mountains, following a very well-marked trail (I'm no pro) and was amazed by the rustic scenery of olive trees, fruit groves and hidden bays that were begging to be dipped into. I spent a fair amount of time hiking around the hills, and I do have one piece of advice when it comes to stopping for breaks: be cautious of the glittering bays. They might look like the perfect place to dunk in, but I can't tell you how many jellyfish I spotted. They're a common sight in Ibiza, but the months of June-September are when they seem to float out in their masses. How to book A stay at Cala San Miguel Ibiza Resort starts from £250 per night in a superior room on a bed and breakfast basis. You can book here to get the best rates. Club rooms on a bed and breakfast basis start from £330. Flights to Ibiza run from most larger UK airports, with return tickets from around £50 off-season. See Skyscanner routes here.

Kylie Jenner stuns fans with shock move amid Timothee Chalamet breakup rumors
has shocked fans with her latest move amid Timothee Chalamet breakup rumors. The 28-year-old beauty mogul - who recently sported a racy look for a girls' night out - has been embroiled in split speculation with the actor, 29, after the pair were last seen together over five weeks ago. However, the TV personality seemingly proved that all is well between the two when she reportedly liked Timothee's latest Instagram post on Wednesday, per E! News. While Daily Mail could not verify if Kylie had liked or possibly unliked the post, her mom Kris and sister Kendall's likes are still on full display on the post. He uploaded a new trailer for his upcoming film Marty Supreme, and they also showed their support for the Oscar-nominated star. It comes after the stars were last spotted together on July 5 during a vacation to St. Tropez, France. While Daily Mail could not verify if Kylie had liked or possibly unliked the post, her mom Kris and sister Kendall's likes are still on full display on the post The actor was also notably absent from Kylie's birthday celebration which took place over the past weekend. However, the reason for the pair's 40 days apart has now been explained. Timothee has been busy filming the sequel Dune: Part Three in Hungary, where he plays the character Paul Atreides in the third installment of the Dune franchise. 'Timothee is busy making a movie and the schedule is grueling because he is in so many scenes, he is the star,' a source told Daily Mail. 'So he has to be very focused and together to do his best work.' Even from a distance, the reality star gives him all the support he needs, added the insider. 'She helps him out as much as she can, like give him space to work and have her private jet on standby in case he needs to go somewhere fast.' The source continued, 'Kylie is a good girlfriend to him. She is always there and wants him to be happy, and if that means he has to be overseas for a few months, she is OK with it, she will wait. She also secretly jets off to see him when she can. 'Of course she misses her man and her heart hurts when he is not near, but she makes it work.' Timothee has been shooting in Budapest for the third Dune film, with his other co-stars being Zendaya, Rebecca Ferguson, Robert Pattinson, Anya Taylor-Joy, Florence Pugh and Jason Momoa. Dune Messiah will be in theatres on December 16, 2026. The IMDB logline for the film is brief: 'The film follows Muad'dib, heir to unimaginable power, as he brings to fruition the ancient scheme to create a superbeing ruler among men, not in the heavens.' Dune Messiah is a 1969 science fiction novel by American writer Frank Herbert, the second in his Dune series of six novels. A sequel to Dune, it was originally serialized in Galaxy magazine in 1969, and then published by Putnam the same year. Kylie and Timothee started dating in January 2023, were rumored to be an item in April 2023 and then they went public with their romance in September 2023. Their first red carpet together was at the 70th David Di Donatello event at Cinecitta Studios in Rome, Italy on May 7, 2025. In early July, Kylie started following Timothee on Instagram. The businesswoman boasts almost 400million followers on the photo-sharing site, but she is quite choosy about who she follows, with only 119 profiles making the cut. However, one of those is now her boyfriend of two years. Fans of TyMothée - the pair's most popular ship name - have been driven into a frenzy after spotting Kylie has allowed the A Complete Unknown actor into her close social circle. However, at the time of writing, the follow is yet to be reciprocated. The actor has 19.7 million Instagram followers, and has only shared 147 posts, compared with Kylie's whopping 7,244 posts. But the Kardashians star shouldn't feel snubbed because he doesn't follow anybody on Instagram. Kylie is mom to Stormi, seven, and Aire, three - whom she shares with ex and rapper Travis Scott. And Timothee has had the chance to meet her children. A source told People in April that the two stars are 'making it work' and added, 'Kylie is truly his biggest fan. 'She would clear her schedule to attend awards and premieres with him. She couldn't be more supportive of his career.' The insider added, 'When they are in LA together, he spends time with her kids too. Her family loves that she's dating him. They have seen such positive changes in Kylie. She's the happiest.' Earlier this month, Kylie celebrated her 28th birthday on August 10 - and jumped to Instagram to share special moments from her intimate bash. She was joined by close family and pals for the special occasion while being able to indulge in more than one sugary cake. One of the desserts was covered in white frosting and colorful sprinkles while the other was covered with raspberries. In the caption of the Instagram carousel, she gave a shout out to her older sister Kendall for planning the party. The group also had a blast painting outdoors and later enjoyed a tasty dinner as well as the yummy cake for dessert. 'best birthday ever!!!!!!! I'm so grateful to my family and friends for making this weekend so special and full of love. 28 feels so good!!!!!' The Kylie Cosmetics founder added, 'and to my sister @kendalljenner thank you from the bottom of my heart for planning everything so perfectly. I'm so lucky to have you.'
