Laura Hamilton flaunts her incredible figure in a skimpy black bikini as she enjoys lavish Dubai getaway
Laura Hamilton showed off her incredible figure in stunning Instagram snaps during an exotic getaway in Dubai on Friday.
The TV presenter could be seen striking a pose in the black two-piece, oozing confidence as she showed off her jaw-dropping figure.
The A Place In The Sun host, 43, put on a leggy display as she sat on the edge of the villa pool.
As she tilted her head towards the sun and flaunted her golden tan, she took a moment to take in the gorgeous surroundings.
Later in the day, Laura uploaded a video in the same stylish bikini at Rixos The Palm Dubai Hotel, where she was staying.
She chilled out on an inflatable, sporting a pair of white stylish sunglasses.
She also uploaded a video of herself braving the plunge into an ice bath.
As she prepared to immerse herself into the freezing water, Laura showcased her slender figure again and crossed her arms ready to take a quick dip.
In the video, the star took several deep breaths as she built up the courage to slowly lower herself into the plunge pool.
For the first of the sizzling snaps at Dubai's Azure Beach Club, Laura was pictured from behind as she perched by the side of the pool with just her feet in the water.
The presenter seemed in good spirits as she enjoyed a trip away for work, captioning the post: 'In just under 7 hours I travelled to Dubai for meetings, filming and a bit of time by the pool...'
Laura's latest post on Instagram comes after she opened up about the struggles she endured during the renovation of her dream home in Spain, which she bought back in August.
The property expert, who has been the host of A Place In The Sun since 2012, has spent the proceeding nine months renovating the six-bedroom home into a four bed abode with a courtyard garden.
Laura, however, admitted it has all cost a little more than she expected.
In an interview with The Sun, she said: 'You need a lot of patience because you have to follow the rules and regulations.
She continued: 'You need to do a lot of research before doing a project overseas. What I will say is like any property you buy, you should get a survey.
'Something else that I would say is to get the right mortgage. There are some amazing mortgages available out there.'
Laura said that due to her three per cent mortgage which is fixed for 25 years, she didn't have to 'sink all my money' into the project.
The presenter also urged anyone thinking of buying a house abroad to 'do it now' as she regrets not doing it sooner.
Laura ended up knocking down most of the house in order to create her dream 'plunge pool' as a centre piece to the holiday house.
Taking to Instagram at the end of November, she posted an update for her fans, writing: 'LOOK HOW FAR I'VE COME...
'Back in August I purchased a holiday home in Mallorca. But of course me being me, it had to be a 'renovation project'. It's a massive undertaking and I am loving the process and of course the transformation.
'I decided not to post lots about my renovation on this page as I know not everyone is interested so I decided to create a separate page with more content on the project over on @myrenovationinthesun.'
Laura shared how it was tough to gut the house as it is on a small lane in the middle of the town - and it took a team of eight people three days to empty everything.
The whole back of the house had been demolished and the roof terrace has gone in order to create a space for a courtyard garden with a plunge pool.
She has also gutted the old fashioned bathroom, downstairs bedroom and kitchen to make way for a more modern design.
Laura began her rise to fame in 2003, appearing on popular children's programme Fun Song Factory on CITV - alongside JLS' Aston Merrygold.
Laura also presented the Nickelodeon's Kids' Choice Awards and was in talks to host The X Factor accompaniment show The Xtra Factor.
Since becoming a firm favourite on A Place In The Sun, Laura has appeared on Dancing On Ice, where she came second.

Meghan won't take orders from anyone – that's why her brand's in chaos & it's all her own fault, expert slams
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) ROYAL experts have slammed Meghan Markle, claiming her inability to take orders is behind the chaos surrounding her brand. The Duchess of Sussex's brand, As ever, is taking a short break after selling out all its items in just 45 minutes, according to Meghan. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 The Duchess of Sussex revealed on a podcast that her brand is taking a short break to restock Credit: Netflix However, experts claim the quick sellout highlights chaos behind the brand, suggesting there weren't enough products to meet demand. The Sun's former Royal Correspondent and author Charles Rae said: "I'm not a businessman, but I would have thought that if you were setting up a new company, you would have enough products on the shelves or whatever is kept to satisfy the demand." Shoppers snapped up £10 jam and £22 honey from Meghan's brand — though it's unclear how many sold before the products were declared out of stock. Royal experts believe that the lack of clarity from the brand stems from the Duchess "not wanting to take orders from anyone". "My view is that it is mainly, I would say, 90 per cent Megan who's running," said Charles. He added: "Who's running the show, because this is a woman who does not want to take orders from anybody." Royal Correspondent Sarah Hewson agreed and said: "She doesn't want to let go. "And I guess, you know, she is putting her name to it. But yes, it has been chaotic." The Duchess of Sussex has promised her As Ever goods will be back in stock this month - alongside "a few new things we can't wait to show you". The about-turn came hours after she was heard telling Beyonce's mother she had decided to "just pause" until completely ready. Meghan couldn't get Beyonce so settled for her mum… but even a global star couldn't save As Ever, expert slams Meghan appeared on her own podcast on Tuesday, recorded in May, telling Tina Knowles she feared annoying customers when the first batch of her jam and herbal teas sold out in less than an hour. She said wanted to wait until it is "completely stable and we have everything we need". Meghan has since shared a photo of jam-making preparations including bowls of strawberries, raspberries and blueberries, and freshly squeezed lemons, on her Instagram stories, writing: "'June gloom?' Not over here! Because this month your favourite products are back." Her official AsEver account also posted: "To all who've been wondering and waiting, thank you! "Your favorites are returning, plus a few NEW things we can't wait to show you. Coming this excited!" The Duchess's bonus Confessions Of A Female Founder episode with Knowles was recorded on May 5, the day before Prince Archie's sixth birthday. Meghan, who celebrated Princess Lilibet's fourth birthday on Wednesday by sharing previously unseen black and white family photographs of herself with her daughter, began selling her As Ever products in April. The range includes flower sprinkles, which she used liberally during her Netflix lifestyle show, and raspberry spread, a crepe mix, wildflower honey and an assortment of herbal teas. She renamed her brand from American Riviera Orchard after running into trademark issues. It comes after Meghan Markle shared heartwarming pictures of her daughter Lilibet to celebrate her fourth birthday. And Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz have reportedly hired Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's lawyer to help protect their reputations as their family feud escalates.
