Michelle Keegan looks incredible as she strips off to black bikini ahead of summer holiday
MICHELLE Keegan posed for a stunning selfie in a black bikini as she looked forward to going on holiday.
The Brassic star soaked up the sun in high-waisted briefs and multi-way halterneck top that she tied around her waist.
Michelle, 36, teamed the bikini with large black sunglasses and gold jewellery, and wore her hair tied up.
The former Corrie actress plugged her own bikini brand in the snap and wrote over the top: "Summers on the way!"
She also shared a "photo dump" on her grid and posted in black bottoms as she strolled along the sand.
Michelle looked like a Bond girl on the beach - and has been backed by husband Mark Wright for the role.

The actress was universally praised for her performance as widowed military vet Maya Stern in thriller Fool Me Once released in January.
The series topped the Netflix charts on both sides of the Atlantic and bookies have her among the favourites to join the 007 franchise.
Her supportive husband is adamant she's more than capable of taking on the iconic role.
Speaking on his Heart radio show, he said: "She’s such a down to earth girl, never forgotten her roots.
"That is why when she sits there and reads news that she is in the running to be the next Bond Girl, she’s like 'nah, no chance, I’m not having it!' but then when you think about it, why not?
"They’ve put her in the mix with Jodie Comer, also could be running, and in the past we’ve had Rosamund Pike, Monica Bellucci, Halle Berry, just imagine if Michelle is the next Bond girl!"
Bond bosses have made a huge change for the next flick and are eyeing up an Oscar-nominated star for the lead as 007.
And Mark gushed about his wife's humility and joked there could be fireworks at home if she pips him to a part in the famous spy series.
He continued: "I don’t know if you get like this at work, you do something really good but you don’t realise that and you're just modest.
"That’s what’s so good about the fact that she is like that, humble.
"And I absolutely love that, imagine that, being Bond girl, that is my dream shattered, of being the next Bond himself.
"If she was the Bond girl it would be totally weird if I was Bond, maybe I’ll fight her for it."
