Love Island’s Zara McDermott shows off her jaw-dropping figure in a white bikini as she shares throwback snap from a lavish holiday

Zara McDermott showed off her sensational figure in a white and black bikini as she shared a sizzling throwback snap to her Instagram Story on Tuesday.

The former Love Island star, 27, looked stunning in the skimpy two-piece as she posed in the sun during a lavish outing.

The Strictly star let her long blonde locks down and draped an oversized white shirt off her shoulders and accessorized with gold earrings.

Zara wrote about the photo and asked her 1.9 million followers “what their favorite bikini brands are.”

The documentary maker is the girlfriend of I’m A Celebrity winner Sam Thompson, 31, whose sister Louise is currently in hospital.

The couple, who live next door to the former Made In Chelsea star, 33, her husband Ryan Libbey and their son Leo, two, are yet to share a public message about Louise’s health.

She has now been in hospital for thirteen days after being admitted at the end of last month following a series of health problems since the birth of her son Leo.

Ryan, 33, said on Instagram on Monday night that he had taken Leo to see Louise for the first time since her admission.

The personal trainer, who has not revealed why Louise is in hospital, wrote on Instagram: ‘We have just returned from visiting mum in hospital.

‘That was the first time Leo had seen her in thirteen days. It was a difficult, emotional and confusing experience for him, but luckily after a few minutes Leo was cuddling in bed while mom sang ‘Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star’.

‘The video I made is probably the most valuable thing I own now. Louise is recovering well.

‘Thank you again everyone for the expressions of support.’

Louise has been open about complications with her health after almost dying while giving birth to her son.

The couple, who live next door to the former Made In Chelsea star, 33, her husband Ryan Libbey and their son Leo, two, are yet to share a public message about Louise’s health.

She has now been in hospital for thirteen days after being admitted at the end of last month following a series of health problems since the birth of her son Leo.

The reality star was hospitalized for five weeks in 2021 with ‘serious complications’.

She has suffered a host of physical problems since the traumatic birth, in addition to ulcerative colitis, which she was diagnosed with before becoming pregnant.

Ulcerative colitis is a chronic intestinal condition in which the colon and rectum become inflamed and small ulcers may form on the lining of the colon, which may bleed.

Louise has also struggled with post-traumatic stress disorder and post-natal anxiety, admitting she cried up to 20 times during a week in January 2022.

Ryan wrote on Sunday: ‘Louise has now been in hospital for 12 days. We don’t know yet when she will be ready to come home.

“But thank you to everyone who sent messages of love and support to our family. It does help.’

Ryan also shared a selfie of himself and the couple’s son, Leo, with the caption, “We miss mom every day.”

The couple welcomed Leo in November 2021 and later revealed that both Louise and their son almost died during childbirth.

Ryan originally shared the news on Sunday, writing: ‘Louise has now been in hospital for 12 days. “We don’t know yet when she will be ready to come home.”

Louise last updated her Instagram account seven days ago and shared some snaps of her son taken during a holiday abroad

They did not announce the arrival of their child for five weeks after serious complications during the birth.

On December 23, 2021, Louise announced the birth of her son on her Instagram page, revealing that she had been released from hospital to recover at home.

She said: ‘Five weeks ago I gave birth to my beautiful son Leo-Hunter Libbey, who weighed 2.5 kilos. Unfortunately it wasn’t the easiest start for either of us. One ended up in the NICU and the other ended up in the ICU.

Louise said Leo recovered quickly, but she had to deal with “a lot of bad things.” She said: ‘Dance with death twice brings a whole new view of the world.’

The reality star announced last month that she is releasing a book, Lucky, in which she will tell the story of the near-death experience.
