Em Rata on her hot girl summer in racy bikini shoot
The 34-year-old US model and author took to Instagram at the weekend to share a series of photos from her travels in Italy with loved ones, including her son Sly.
The first photo in her post was sure to capture attention as the influencer showed off her figure in a barely-there leopard print bikini while standing on the edge of her villa's infinity pool that looked out to scenic, cliff-side views.
In another photo, Rata wore a different tiny red and blue striped bikini paired with matching hot pants as she enjoyed a yacht day swimming and snorkelling.
She continued her swimsuit parade with a selfie that showed off the front of her plunging leopard print bikini, which she accessorised with dainty gold chain necklaces, Gucci sunglasses and a baseball cap.
Other images showed Rata enjoying a yacht cruise, feasting on seafood and diving into pretty blue waters.
Friends and fans took to the comments section and hyped up the London-born, California-raised star.
'You're so hot,' one fan said.
Another added: 'A gorgeous little piece of perfection.'
'These outstanding pictures go beyond the word beautiful, just mesmerising, especially the opening one of you Em with you're body posed like a life-like temple,' a third fan added. Em Rata stayed at a historic villa in Positano, situated on a beautiful hill of the Amalfi Coast. Credit: Supplied
The photo dump comes shortly after Rata was spotted showing PDA with former lover and entrepreneur Orazio Rispo while swimming off the Amalfi Coast.
While the model recently told Elle UK in June that 'straight men' are not a part of her inner circle, it appears the pair rekindled their romance after they were previously seen kissing in 2022.
In other news, Rata is set to make her screenwriting debut for a new Apple TV+ series that explores female identity and early motherhood alongside Lena Dunham.

Margaret River pop-up that served Andy Hearnden ‘one of most interesting meals of his life' tours Australia
When I suggested Andy Hearnden check out Dahl Daddy's while he was in Margaret River for the inaugural Pair'd festival, I expected the popular chef would enjoy himself. (Then again, who wouldn't fall headfirst for a spirited curry canteen – operating out of the local skate park, no less – specialising in heavy-hitting Burmese flavours including, as its name suggests, a deeply nourishing dahl?) What I wasn't expecting, however, was how into Dahl Daddy's he would be – and that there would soon be a reunion. 'In November last year, I had one of the most interesting meals of my life,' said Hearnden on Instagram after he and fellow New Zealand-born chef Ben Shewry visited Dahl Daddy's and ate various dishes including lahpet thoke: a Burmese fermented tea leaf salad Hearnden hailed as 'absolutely delicious'. 'For the first time in ages, I tasted bold, beautiful flavours that I'd never had before,' says Hearnden. 'My mind was blown.' Sadly, leasing issues forced Dahl Daddy's owners Corey Rozario and Imogin Mitchell to close their popular community eatery in June: devastating news for Hearnden as well as anyone else with an appreciation for bold South Asian cooking. The silver lining to this especially gloomy cloud, though, is that losing their permanent home has allowed Rozario and Mitchell to hit the road and introduce the rest of Australia to Dahl Daddy's singular, free-spirited take on Burmese and South Asian cuisine. Until mid-October, Dahl Daddy's caravan of curry will wind its way around Australia and stop in Melbourne, Canberra, Sydney, the Sunshine Coast and Adelaide before ending the tour in Perth at Big Don's Smoked Meats. Throughout the tour, Rozario and Mitchell will set up shop in everything from a pizza-slinging record shop in Melbourne's inner-east (Sunday, August 16) to an Adelaide burger joint (Thursday, September 25). Each city's event will be unique, with formats ranging from set-menu dinners to takeaway nights. One of the tour's key moments takes place in Sydney on Sunday, August 31. A joint effort with the team behind Kyiv Social – a socially minded eatery affiliated with the Plate It Forward movement and winner of the innovation prize at the Sydney Morning Herald Good Food Guide awards in 2023 – this event is a fundraiser for earthquake relief efforts in Burma as well as a reunion between team Dahl Daddy's and Hearnden. 'The morning after I posted my video cooking a Burmese-style prawn curry, I woke to news that a massive earthquake had hit the region [Burma],' says Hearnden. 'I couldn't shake the feeling that I had to do something. A week later, almost like serendipity, Corey called and asked if I wanted to be part of this new project. I said yes straight away. I can't wait to get in the kitchen with him, share this incredible food, and hopefully do some good along the way.'

Brandon Blackstock's cause of death revealed
Brandon Blackstock's cause of death has been confirmed. The talent manager, who was married to pop star Kelly Clarkson from 2013 to 2022, sadly passed away at the age of 48 last week and it has been revealed that he died from melanoma - a form of skin cancer - by Silver Bow County Coroner Dan Hollis. He added to People: "Brandon Blackstock passed away peacefully at his home in Butte, Montana on August 7th under hospice care surrounded by his family." Brandon - who had children River, 11, and Remy, nine, from his marriage to Kelly - died last week after battling cancer for over three years. A statement from a family representative read: "It is with great sadness that we share the news that Brandon Blackstock has passed away. "Brandon bravely battled cancer for more than three years. He passed away peacefully and was surrounded by family. We thank you for your thoughts and prayers and ask everyone to respect the family's privacy during this very difficult time." Blackstock's passing came just a day after Kelly, 43, revealed that her ex-husband was ill and that she would be postponing the rest of her Las Vegas residency dates for August. The Since U Been Gone hitmaker wrote on Instagram: "Unfortunately, I need to postpone the remainder of the August Studio Session dates in Las Vegas. "While I normally keep my personal life private, this past year, my children's father has been ill and at this moment, I need to be fully present for them. I am sincerely sorry to everyone who bought tickets to the shows and I so appreciate your grace, kindness and understanding." Kelly is understood to be "staying strong" for her kids in the wake of Brandon's death, even though the couple's marriage ended in acrimony. A source told People: "Kelly and Brandon had their ups and downs, but at the end of the day, he was the father of her children and she is absolutely heartbroken for them. Her kids are her entire world, and she's staying strong for their sake." The Because of You singer had always tried to remain "classy" for the sake of their kids after learning that Brandon - who served as her manager during their marriage - was seriously ill. The insider added: "When she found out that he was sick, she remained protective of him for their sake. "Kelly has always tried to keep things classy. It became clear earlier this year that Brandon was not doing well. She's been devastated for the kids."

Social media star Trisha Paytas sparks outrage after naming latest baby 'Aquaman' - and you won't believe what her other two kids are called
A controversial YouTuber has been eviscerated by social media over the outrageous name she bestowed upon her newborn son. Trisha Paytas has named her newborn boy Aquaman Moses Paytas-Hacmon after the half-human, half-Atlantean Warner Bros comic book character. The media personality and YouTuber, 37, who rose to internet fame in the early 2000s, welcomed her son last month through a photo of him wrapped in an under-the-sea themed blanket and beanie. Sporting a T-shirt adorned with the character played by Jason Momoa in the 2018 film, Trisha said Aquaman was the "perfect" name for her baby on her podcast Just Trish. She shares the youngest of her three kids with her husband of four years, Moses Hacmon, an Israeli collaborative artist, designer and photographer. 'Not only is it so related to me, but it's also so related to Moses,' Trisha said. 'I've been wearing Aquaman T-shirts for years, I've gone to so many comic-cons for Aquaman. "And I really fell in love when we rewatched Aquaman. 'We watched all the Aquamans, I watched the cartoon, I was watching everything.' But Trisha has pushed baby naming conventions one step too far, her followers say. "You need to be banned from naming a child ever again, Aquaman??" one person wrote on Instagram. "No, because why ruin someone's life with a name like that?" another person said. "This poor child is going to get bullied so hard," one more person said. A fourth person in the comments pointed out to Trisha that the very unusual name for her son would, in fact, still belong to him as an adult. "He's going to be a grown adult, it's not a pet…" they said. However, her eldest children have suffered an arguably worse fate. Her daughters are named Malibu Barbie, two, and Elvis, one. Some fans have suggested her very left-of-centre name choices were merely a ploy to hide the real names of her children and protect their identities. "I have a theory that these names are all fake for the sake of ragebaiting/privacy of her children," one person said, as others agreed. "Need to study her brain to see where she gets these names," said one more bemused person. Trisha first hinted about naming her son Aquaman before he was born, declaring she and Moses would take inspiration from a 'water-themed movie'. The media personality couldn't escape backlash over Malibu Barbie's name either, with some saying the '60s fashion-doll-inspired moniker was "cruel" and "awful". And while the name Elvis was branded "iconic" by some, others disapproved of the "out there" name but liked Ellie or Evie as nicknames.
