The TV personality displayed her washboard abs in the plunging fuchsia two-piece, designed by actress Elizabeth Hurley for her swimwear line. 

Showing off her sun-kissed holiday glow, Lucy went make-up free and wore a pair of dark shades. 

The fitness entrepreneur made sure no hair was out of place as she swept back her dark cropped brunette tresses into a low ponytail.

Lucy confidently spoke about how she's learned to accept her body without constantly putting herself down.

She wrote alongside the snap: 'My body isn’t at its thinnest, fittest or strongest right now but I have learnt how to look after my body, nourish my body & accept my body without constantly putting it down for not being perfect!!'

Despite launching her fitness programme Results With Lucy, the television personality admitted she sometimes finds it hard to maintain her strict exercise regime.

In an interview with OK! Magazine, she confessed: 'You know what, I found it very tough [getting back into the routine] this year, and I’m still getting back into it slowly.'

'I think my biggest advice to people is just take it step by step. Just change one thing at a time. It's just not realistic, you overwhelmed yourself, you end up ten days in like "Nooo!!"' 

Lucy has been holidaying with her boyfriend, former Coronation Street star Ryan Thomas, 34.

Lucy and Ryan seem to be well and truly back on track after a brief split earlier this month.

The pair - who met while filming Celebrity Island with Bear Grylls in May 2017 - had a furious row after Lucy accused the father-of-one of getting close to a model on a night out in Manchester.

Ryan was said to have furiously denied the rumours and convinced Lucy to try again.

A source told The Sun at the time: 'Who knows what will happen long-term, but for now things they seem determined to smooth it over.'  

Ryan is a dad to daughter Scarlett, nine, who he shares with ex-girlfriend of six years, former Coronation Street star Tina O'Brien, 34.
