Those training sessions are paying off! Ex-Hollyoaks star Gemma Atkinson shows off ripped figure on holiday ahead of 10K run
|
She's been a gym bunny for years and has recently been stepping up her training for a 10K charity run.
So no wonder former Hollyoaks actress Gemma Atkinson is looking super fit as she holidays in the Mediterranean.
Wearing a pink and green halterneck bikini, the 28-year-old worked on her tan as she soaked up the sun.

At one point, she changed her top in a black bra bikini, letting down the straps so as to avoid unsightly tanlines.
Gemma, who appeared on the seventh series of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! enjoyed a break ahead of the Blenheim Palace 10k on October 6.
As part of Olympic heptathlete Louise Hazel's team, Gemma will be raising money for the British Heart Foundation.

The cause is close to Gemma's heart after she lost her father David, who died of a heart attack when she was just 17 and he was 52.
She said: 'It’s a personal link for me. If I can support any charity, it would be them.'
Gemma will be teaming up with Stacey Solomon, Spencer Matthews, Russell Howard and Caggie Dunlop in the team for the event.

Meanwhile, Gemma is currently engaged to boxer Liam Richards, who she has been dating since 2009.
Writing on Twitter, she said: 'OK, to those asking, YES! I am Engaged. I have been since Aug. We celebrated privately last Yr with Fam & friends :).'
Prior to Liam, who reached the semi-finals of Britain's Got Talent with martial arts duo Strike in 2008, Gemma had high-profile romances with footballers Cristiano Ronaldo and Marcus Bent.

However, in an interview with the Mail On Sunday's Live magazine last year, she insisted she would never divulge the details on her former WAG life.
She said: 'I won’t talk about my exes for the simple reason that if you choose to splash your private life across the newspapers, you have to accept that no one will take you seriously when things go wrong and you ask them to respect your privacy.'
Toned: Gemma will be running 10K for charity in two weeks time
