Maisie Smith has been flooded with praise as she donned a bikini and paraded her 'thunder thighs' on social media. The former EastEnders star looked sensational in a barely-there silver bikini as she filmed herself walking around a swimming pool on holiday.
She paraded her gym-honed figure in the video which she posted to TikTok. Maisie, who played Tiffany Butcher in the BBC One soap before her exit last year, was seen dancing around the edge of a pool in Portugal and sang along to the viral hit Victoria's Secret by Jax.
The songs lyrics include: "I wish somebody would’ve told me that thighs of thunder meant normal human thighs. The f*****g pressure I was under, to lose my appetite," and she also included a series of different pictures taken from different angles.
Maisie, 21, shared the defiant video, which showed her trademark tresses in a messy bun and sporting a pair of sunglasses on her head while she kicked and splashed the water, to the video-sharing platform with the caption: "Feel like this sound was made for me," which appeared to be a reference to the comments she's made about her body in the past.
And the compliments came flooding in. @foreveramumoftwo said: "You have forever looked absolutely stunning!!!" @cazley81 commented: "Stunning in every picture my teenage girls love you and your such a great role model." @xchloereadsx told her: "Always was and always will be unreal." @Gabby24 replied: "You're a Goddess!!!"
Many others were also thanking Maisie for her honestly and helping them to love their figures. @sophmalibuxoxo wrote: "the girl who made me feel confident about my thighs." @ally6200 echoed: "It was actually YOU that made me realise having larger thighs is beautiful, thank you."
@shistersadezz commented: "You’ve made me love my thighs thank you so much." @shannonollinger gushed: "You made me love my thighs Maisie, thank you for being unapologetically you. You have no idea how much you do for us girlies." @andreajane31 praised: "You are the role model I want for my 15 year old!"
Back in 2020, she uploaded a gym selfie to her Instagram page while she appeared on Strictly Come Dancing. She wrote at the time: "The past few years I’ve been VERY insecure about my legs. I covered them up as much possible. No matter how many people told me 'cellulite is natural.. everyone has it..' I still hated them.
"It’s taken me a while but I’m starting to accept these aspects of myself that I’ve always seen as 'flaws'. I wore gym shorts (out of the house) for the FIRST time a couple of months ago n I was so so proud of myself. I wish I could I say that I LOVE my body but I’m still working on that."
Continuing the post, she added: "The reason I posted this was because I understand that it’s SO hard to love yourself and see your 'flaws' as 'qualities'. We ALL have things we want to change about ourselves. But I hope this can help other people feel more confident about their own insecurities."
And her fans were left stunned when she received an expected compliment from US reality star Khloe Kardashian. She came across the images and left her a comment, telling Maisie commented on the snaps, saying her legs are "envy worthy". Khloe, who is famed for starring in Keeping up with the Kardashians, said: "You have the most beautiful legs. Envy worthy!!! I can not build my legs for the life of me! So I'm drooling over yours," she added. "You are gorgeous!!!!!!"
