Gemma Collins has shared a body-positive bikini pic on Instagram from her sunny vacation in Greece.

Currently on holiday on the island of Mykonos, Collins shared a number of bikini photos with a caption about self-love.

“Today is SO LIBERATING for Me,” she wrote.

“This was all a process that started with one thing learning to SELF LOVE. you have to believe in yourself when noone else does.

“STRENGTH does not come from what you CAN DO, it comes from over coming the things you ONCE THOUGHT YOU COULD’NT. thank you to @charlie_king85 for taking these he was sweating in the heat.”

The three photos show Collins striking a pose poolside, with the blue ocean visible in the background.

Collins received supportive comments from famous friends, including Scottish TV presenter Gillian McKeith, who wrote: “Fantastic message. Inner strength. You are motivated. Yesssss”.

TOWIE star Jess Wright wrote: “Yes girl you look great”.

“Seeing you shine, empowered, free + liberated is SO SO worth the sweat to get these shots!” wrote Charlie King, who took the photos.

Collins has been making the most of her holiday in the sun, sharing a number of photos from her stay in Mykonos.

She recently shared another series of poolside pics, writing: “ALL WOMAN 🙌🏻 MYKONOS 🇬🇷 @cavotagoomykonos no filter or edit just serving good vibes.”

Cavo Tagoo Mykonos is the five-star resort where Collins is unwinding.

Collins’ beach escape follows her rumoured split from TOWIE’s James Argent.

The reality star is regularly open about her passion for body positivity, recently sharing that she “rose above” her insecurities after brands deemed her “too fat” to promote their products.

“Cough cough .... where are you people now, WHERE AM I, RISE HIGHER, always BELIEVE IN YOU,” she wrote. “My heart has always been the same no matter of my size."
