She captioned her enviable holiday snap on Instagram: ‘Wish you were here…’ with a sunshine emoji.
Her pal and BBC Radio 1 presenter Mollie King piped up in the comments, praising her swimsuit choice: ‘Love that swimsuit!’

She shared a photo of her 4-month-old baby lying on her tummy – who she shares with her husband and Love Island voiceover actor Ian Sterling.

The new mum-of-one arrived just in time at the Balearic island for the show, as the villa see the return of the infamous Casa Amor.
Monday night’s episode saw the arrival of 12 new bombshells, ready to cause havoc with the already coupled-up islanders.
Newly-single Chloe Burrows, 25, certainly wasted no time as she scoped out her potential new lovers.
The blonde beauty’s pal Hugo Hammond also appeared to be having a sensational time on the show, with the PE teacher locking lips with three of the new beauties.

For Chloe, the new contestants couldn’t have come at a better time as she was dumped by Toby Aromolaran on Friday’s recoupling after he chose to couple up with new girl Abi.
‘I’m game. I want to flirt, I want to snog, everyone knows I love to snog. I feel so smug. I’ve got the power again,’ she boasted.
During the action-packed episode, the original island girls were treated to six new hunks: Matthew, Sam, Medhy, Harry, Dale and Jack.
Meanwhile, those they were previously coupled up with were sent on a ‘lad’s holiday’ to Casa Amor.

The lucky boys met six new gorgeous bombshells: Kaila, Mary, Salma, Amy, Clarisse and Lillie.
The episode saw the singletons playing a very saucy game of truth or dare in the new holiday home.
Hugo was making up for lost time as he locked lips with not one, not two, but three of the Casa Amor newbies.

Hugo laid it on thick with the three girls he found the most attractive: performer Amy, 25, model Mary, 22 and trainee accountant Lillie, 22.
Surrey-native Amy showed interest in Hugo as well, choosing him as one of the boys she got to kiss during her dare.
The raunchy game also saw a three-way kiss occur between new girls Salma and Clarisse and main-villa islander Liam, who is currently coupled up with Millie.

But it’s Lillie that Liam has his eye on in Casa Amor: ‘Lillie, she’s sexy.’
The tall bricklayer is already feeling the heat: ‘At the end of the day I am a flirt, I prefer flirting with Millie but I may flirt with other people as well… F*****g hell!’
Millie, who was likened to being soulmates with Liam by fans, rightly said to her fellow friends about the new arrivals: ‘It is the ultimate test but I don’t have much trust’.

Elsewhere, Jake resisted temptation on the first day of Casa Amor.
Despite admitting that the new girls fit ‘his type’, the water engineer did tell the new islanders that he’s made things official with Liberty.
‘Basically, there’s been some girls thrown in that are my type let’s be honest.’
He also refrained from joining in with the saucy game with the new bombshells.
Love Island continues on Tuesday at 9pm on ITV2.
