'I slept in the same bed with Devin for four months': Natasha Oakley and Devin Brugman open up about life before A Bikini A Day... and reveal which body parts they feel insecure about
They are flown around the world to stay in five-star hotels while they shoot sizzling swimwear images for their blog A Bikini A Day.
But before fame and a combined following of 2.25 million on Instagram, models and social media stars Natasha Oakley and Devin Brugman lived under far more more humble circumstances.
The genetically-blessed duo have revealed that they shared a bed for months before starting the blog that catapulted them to the big time.

'Joined at the hip, 24/7': A Bikini A Day models Natasha Oakley and Devin Brugman have revealed how they had to sleep in the same bed for four months before launching their successful blog
'I slept in the same bed with Devin for four months,' Oakley said in a new interview with Australian website Beauticate.
The 23-year-old recalled getting her start in production for swimwear labels in Maui before making the move to the US.
'I moved to LA and lived with Devin until I figured out what I was going to do, and then we just became joined at the hip, like 24/7,' she said.
'Then when it was finally time for me to move out we were like "No! We’re just going to have to get a place together".'

The girls started taking pictures of each other in swimwear in their free time, but it wasn't long before the hobby turned into a lucrative career.
'I will never forget the night in LA when we decided to start it,' Tash said. 'We started the Instagram, started the Facebook and by the next day we had thousands of followers and instantly we had brands inquiring.'
While they have millions of fans gazing at their toned and slim bodies in skimpy swimwear everyday, both women admit to having the same insecurities as the rest of us.

Oakley admits to feeling self concious about her legs in the interview, but says starting A Bikini A Day has helped to build her self esteem.
'I definitely have grown to like them more ever since we’ve had our blog,' she said.
For her part, Devin harbours insecurities about her mid-section, but like her partner, has managed to overcome her hang-ups over time.

Confidence: ... But the blonde beauty says that since starting A Bikini A Day she feels less self concious about them
Body love: Likewise, Devin was previously worried about her mid-section, but has since learned to love it
'It’s funny, the first time we started shooting A Bikini A Day we’d have to shoot so many shots because Devin would be so self-conscious about her midsection... And I’d be like "You’re crazy!" and now she doesn’t even think about it and we’re like "What were we tripping over?"' Tash revealed.
Tash and Devin have just finished a few days away from the beach in New York working on photoshoots, after partying up a storm at Coachella Festival.
