A Place In The Sun’s Laura Hamilton flaunts her jaw-dropping figure in a skimpy blue bikini while filming the property show in Malta
A Place In the Sun’s Laura Hamilton showed off her stunning figure as she lay on the beach while filming the Channel 4 property show in Malta on Monday.
The TV presenter, 42, donned a skimpy blue bikini and showed off her striking abs as she posed for a sizzling Instagram photo to mark her first day in front of the camera.
Laura looked absolutely incredible in the tiny two-piece, with her hair wet from the sea and her eyes shielded from the sun with shades.
She captioned the post: ‘And ACTION… our opening piece in front of the camera on Mellieha beach… one of the few sandy beaches in Malta!’.
Laura then put on a very leggy display as she modeled a vibrant mini dress and revealed she was back on the Greek island for spin-off series What Happened Next?.

Writing: ‘I can’t wait to meet Russell and Sian in Malta. I helped them find their property in Malta 7 years ago… so it’s time to find out ‘What happened next?…’
It comes just weeks after the TV star gave followers a health update about her battle with a rare autoimmune disease.
Laura suffers from immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP), a condition that causes her to have low platelet counts, causing her to bruise frequently.
And while sharing her daily battle with the disease, Laura confidently posted a photo of her legs covered in bruises.
She revealed she has been suffering from ‘flair-ups’ this week and has had to wear long dresses to hide bruises for filming.
She captioned the photo: ‘This is ITP! Just a little boost this week. But you won’t see it under my dress for filming! #itp #autoimmune #itpawareness’.
In a video she said: ‘Hello and good morning. I would like to sincerely thank everyone who contacted me after my recent bruised leg story.
βSo that’s ITP, Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura. It’s a reaction to low platelet counts in my blood.

‘It was a very crazy week for me, which I will tell you more about soon. I’ve been really busy and I think it’s just taken its toll.β
Platelets are cell fragments found in the blood that normally help the blood to clot. In people with ITP, the body produces antibodies that attack and destroy the platelets.
The autoimmune disease can cause easy or excessive bleeding or bruising, with many developing purple bruises as well as small reddish-purple dots that look like a rash.
She captioned the video: ‘I’m also sorry to hear from those of you who have ITP, especially those whose children have it… I’m happy to give any advice I can! Laura x’
Laura first spoke about her illness in October 2022, explaining that she flares up ITP when she is stressed, but is currently under control.

She said: ‘It was really crazy a year ago when I was filming A Place In The Sun with a lovely couple in France – Mark and Janine – and I was just standing there and I had a bug bite on my leg and I started doing it to scratch.
‘I thought, βOh, I shouldn’t have done that because I’m getting bruises on my leg from ITP.β
She continued, βIt’s kind of under control right now. I don’t have much of a bruise on my legs, but it does happen that it flares up, but I always try to be positive about things and be a glass half full. .’
The disease affects only 4,000 adults at a time and is most common in young women.
Laura previously posted a photo showing off the bruises by holding her arm in the mirror before heading out to film the latest series of the show in France.
She wrote in the caption of the tell-all post: ‘This week I may have posted a few pictures in pretty dresses, but this is the reality of what’s underneath and what you can’t see…
Continuing, she said, βI had bruises on my arms and my gums were bleeding. This is ITP.
‘Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is an autoimmune disease that can cause easy or excessive bruising and bleeding. The bleeding is due to an unusually low number of platelets, the cells that promote blood clotting.’
