Gemma Atkinson had fans agreeing with her in their droves as she compared her holidays before and after becoming a mum. The Hits Radio host took to Instagram to show two very different videos, one of her showing off her moves in Ibiza and another on her recent summer break with fiance Gorka Marquez and their daughter Mia.
In the first clip, Gemma could be seen showing off her enviable abs in a black bikini top and tiny denim shorts as she smiled and danced for the camera - clearly showing why she made it to the final of Strictly Come Dancing in 2017. The former Hollyoaks and Emmerdale star could also be seen donning a large pair of shades while her hair had been braided and tied into a ponytail.
Gemma was cheered on by her friends filming her throwing some shapes, before turning around to show off her best twerking skills. The second video, however, couldn't have been more different.
The clip, likely filmed by Strictly Come Dancing star Gorka, showed Gemma enjoying time out of the sun rays and in the pool with three-year-old Mia during their holiday in Tenerife earlier this year. The loved-up couple had whisked themselves and their little girl off for her first trip abroad due to two years of restrictions stopping many travelling out the country.
"Holidays then Vs Holidays now," Gemma, 37, captioned her latest post to her millions of followers. "I’m glad I’ve experienced both (although I do prefer the now)." Gorka, 34, was quick to reply as he wrote: "The NOW is much better," alongside a string of love heart eye emojis.
But Gemma also recalled one of her pre-children holidays and it got her followers responding. "I remember I was one of 3 woman who had trainers on to dance poolside in Ibiza, 2 the Bury-born star wrote. "Apparently you wear heels, but that for me just screamed uncomfortable and a health & safety nightmare."
@becky__wesley said: "I never have understood the swimwear and heels thing!" @missraelauren replied: "I remember when nobody wore heels in Ibiza, flip flops or trainers and a pair of shorts in the rave was the only way! What happened!? I’d be with you!" @jillstott added: "Heels and dancing just screams blisters and bunions...trainers and flip flops please."
Others, however, were impressed by Gemma's moves. @yviex said: "Work it gahl! You got da moves." @smithj.jws commented: "WOW, GEMMA. SUCH MOVES." @lizmayger posted: "On point with the twerking." @bexy_hartley added: "Wow you can move!!"
Earlier this year as their holiday was coming to an end, Gemma reflected on their trip and shared a photo of herself in her gorgeous green bikini, alongside her 'mini me' little girl. And the sweet mother and daughter snap was taken in the exact spot Gemma posed a few years ago while pregnant with Mia.
The mum-of-one was grinning for the camera in a big pair of sunglasses and posed with a peace sign and Mia, who turns three in July, copied her mum's moves. "For Mias first holiday we came back to the exact place we visited while she was still in my belly," Gemma captioned the post to her millions of followers.
"Tenerife will always be special for us. I was lucky enough to holiday here every year as a child. It was the first holiday me & Gorks had together, the last place we came before I gave birth and now Mia gets to experience it just like I did growing up. More memories made on a wonderful island."
