Scarlett Moffatt shows off her weight loss as she lets her hair down while enjoying a boozy karaoke night with her friends in Spain
Scarlett Moffatt was once again flaunting her recent weight loss as she enjoyed a very boozy karaoke night in Torremolinos, Spain, over the weekend. The former Gogglebox favourite, 34, flaunted her slimmer frame in snaps posted to Instagram on Monday showing off her wild night out with her friends. Scarlett looked glamorous as she posed in a semi sheer co-ord, which was made up of a shirt and matching wide-legged trousers. Revealing that she now takes the opportunity to let her hair down now she's a mother, Scarlett said: '48 hours in Torremolinos with my besties. 'Honestly no one is wilder on a night out than a mother, I used to be very mild and now I'm a stay at home mam I'm first on the dance floor and last off the karaoke.' Alongside her sizzling shots, Scarlett shared a clip of her singing the night away during a fun karaoke session joined by one of her best friends. She looked over the moon posing for a slew of hilarious selfies with her pals, and later posed alongside two glamorous drag-queens. Scarlett also shared a fresh-faced snap of herself going make-up free while posing with a thumbs up. The former I'm A Celebrity star previously flaunted her weight loss as she enjoyed a sweet family day out to Tynemouth beach in Newcastle last week. She showeed off her new look in an album posted to Instagram and she looked happier than ever in a chic light green co-ord. Scarlett layered her two-piece in a figure-hugging leopard-print body suit as she accessorised her look with a pair of orange-tinted sunglasses. During the outing with her fiancé Scott Dobinson, Scarlett looked every inch the doting mother as she played with their son, Jude, 22 months, on the beach. Sharing the family pictures to her social media, she penned: 'Quick dash to home bargains this morning for a bucket & spade, some picky bits from m & s and we were ready for a proper British day at the beach.' Her outing comes after she displayed her jaw-dropping transformation in a strapless black and white pinstripe dress earlier in the day. She confidently struck a pose in her summer attire as she celebrated 100 years of McVitie's at an exclusive Chocolate Digestives Experience in London. The McVitie's Chocolate Digestives Experience - opening to the public May 2 - promises to be a chocolate digestives-lover's paradise. It features a Biscuit Bar, where visitors can sample never-seen-before McVitie's Chocolate Digestives creations. A gallery also showcases biscuit-based portraits of British icons David Bowie, Sir Trevor McDonald and Dame Judi Dench, created by leading mosaic artist Ed Chapman. In June 2023, Scarlett announced she had given birth via a sweet Instagram post and said Jude arrived five weeks earlier than planned. Captioning the snap, she wrote: 'Jude Xavier Dobinson. My darling boy I can't stop crying looking at you as I can't quite believe you're mine.' 'You wanted to meet us early at just 35 weeks. 'Me & your daddy love you so much that I can't even put this feeling into words.' 'Our heart and soul feels complete & ready to burst. I will forever and always be grateful to be your mammy.' 'I can't thank @scottdobby enough & to the midwives Helen & Charlotte & all of the NHS team at Durham Hospital.' 'You will all forever hold a special place in my heart for looking after us all with such compassion. Let the baby bubble commence.' Scarlett and Scott, who have known each other for more than 15 years, began dating in late 2018 and went public with their relationship in March 2019. The couple got engaged in November 2023, shortly after the birth of their first child.
