Myleene Klass sets pulses racing as she strips off to recreate Princess Margaret's famous steamy bathtub snap to commemorate her MBE honour
Myleene Klass channelled the late Princess Margaret on Thursday as she shared a steamy bathtub photo to celebrate receiving her MBE. The presenter, 47, was honoured for her services to women's health, miscarriage awareness and charity at an investiture ceremony on Wednesday. And after being presented with the medal by King Charles at Windsor Castle, Myleene took to her Instagram to mark her achievement in a very racy way. She stripped down to pose in her lavish clawfoot tub, wearing nothing but a sparkling tiara on her head - in a mirror image of Princess Margaret's iconic bath snap. The younger sister of Queen Elizabeth II was famously photographed by her then-husband Antony Armstrong-Jones in 1962, wearing the dazzling Poltimore tiara while soaking in the tub. Captioning her recreation snap, Myleene quipped: 'Morning! Rinse and reign.' Following Wednesday's investiture ceremony, she took to her Instagram to admit she was 'utterly overjoyed and humbled' to receive the honour. The former Hear'Say star was joined by her fiancé Simon Motson, their five-year-old son Apollo, and her two daughters, Ava, 17, and Hero, 13, who she shares with ex-husband Graham Quinn. Myleene has campaigned for paid bereavement leave to be extended to those who experience a miscarriage. The mother-of-three suffered four miscarriages and has spoken openly about the psychological effects of baby loss on women. She is an ambassador for the pregnancy and baby charity Tommy's and fronted the Bafta-nominated documentary Myleene Klass: Miscarriage And Me in 2021, in which she met women around the UK to hear their experiences. Sharing a slew of photos from Windsor Castle, Myleene wrote: 'Having my family there and our rainbow baby boy was extra magical in what has at times been a very dark journey for us all.' While she concluded her post: 'Before this and my (bafta nominated) documentary Myleene Klass: Miscarriage and Me, it did feel like no one really mentioned the dark secret of Miscarriage, the shame, the taboo, now, it's said loudly in the walls of the Palace and around Westminster. Sharing a slew of photos from Windsor Castle, Myleene wrote: 'Having my family there and our rainbow baby boy was extra magical in what has at times been a very dark journey for us all' 'For the voices that were never heard, i promise you, this is just the beginning…..' Talking to the BBC earlier this year, Myleene said she is 'so proud' of how far she has come and reflected on how she had battled back 'from a very dark place'. She said: 'When I think back to how all of this started, it all came from a very dark place, and I certainly didn't have it in mind to become a campaigner at the time. 'Anyone who has experienced baby loss will know how personal and difficult it is to vocalise this level of trauma.' She has championed changes to the Women's Health Strategy, advocating for earlier support for women rather than waiting until they have experienced three miscarriages. Her efforts have focused on improving miscarriage care and raising awareness about the emotional and heartbreaking toll of baby loss. The musician has used her platform to push for government reforms and has played a key role in ensuring baby loss is addressed as a critical health issue. She added: 'If you suffered three heart attacks, you wouldn't only be offered support after the third one, and so it shouldn't be the same with baby loss'. The singer's work has been widely praised for its impact on breaking the silence around miscarriage and offering hope and support to other women. Myleene has been working with MP Sarah Owen, MP Olivia Blake, Miscarriage Association, and Tommys for a law to be introduced so that women and their partners would be able to take leave. In March, the star fought back the tears on Loose Women as they congratulated her on her MBE. Myleene explained: 'It's for my services to miscarriage. So it feels really important, but because it is that subject matter, all that work understandably feels really sad and really heavy.' While she admitted she was close to tears, as host Christine Lampard then praised her highly for all she's achieved, gushing: 'Your work has been amazing. To hear all of these big names, including The King, seeing the word miscarriage and know it something you're working on and that we're dealing with. It's fantastic'.
