Dancing On Ice star Vanessa Bauer has revealed she celebrated her 25th birthday soaking up the sun in Mallorca.
The figure skater enjoyed a spontaneous trip to Spain last week and shared several photos from her getaway on Instagram to mark the milestone.
Vanessa beamed in the shots, which saw her sporting a floral black bikini while posing in a pool.
The athlete looked carefree as she left her brown hair loose in a tousled style.
Captioning the post, she penned: "Grateful for 25".
The ITV star also shared a short throwback video of her roller-skating on holiday while clad in a stylish floral minidress.
Reminiscing about her trip, Vanessa wrote alongside the idyllic clip: "I’m actually lying on my rug in London while posting this…
"Dreaming about last weeks rather spontaneous trip to Mallorca which was just what I needed before coming back to London.
"We stayed at @hotelesprincep which I can only recommend to anyone going over there for a holiday,” she continued.
"I also had the best birthday as I was surrounded by my closest people which is the biggest gift to me anyway and felt so loved by all the birthday wishes, thank u guys.
"It feels so good though to be back in the UK now progressing my dreams and goals. Lots of love and positive vibes to you".
Vanessa celebratory mood comes a month after she bravely opened up about an aggressive eating disorder she was forced to overcome in the past.
The Dancing On Ice professional took to Instagram to share the pain she had endured in light of Nikki Grahame's tragic death to anorexia.
The beloved Big Brother star tragically passed away in April at the age of 38 after losing her battle.
In light of Nikki’s devastating passing, Vanessa opened up about her own experience as she shared a series of snaps of herself in underwear.
"I used to think I could never model lingerie for personal battles with my body confidence," she wrote on social media.
Telling fans she hopes her honest post will make others realise they're not alone, Vanessa said there "isn't enough awareness around ED," adding: "They are not taken seriously enough."
She penned: "Sunday vibes and personal thoughts. I used to think I could never model lingerie for personal battles with my body confidence."
Vanessa went on: "If you've followed me for a while you may know about my past battle with an aggressive eating disorder as I opened up about this a while ago.
"This was meant to be a different kind of post but Today I saw tragic news of a lost battle with an ED. It made me realise once again that there isn't enough awareness around ED.
"They are not taken seriously enough. And it costs lives... I suffered nearly a decade. It ultimately ended my competitive skating career."
The pro skater added: "And for the last couple of years I've been strong enough to openly speak and raise awareness in the hope to help people who are suffering too.
"To show them they are not alone and that the vicious circle can be beaten!! Despite these being lovely pictures by the amazing @nasibag , they represent so much more to me personally."
"You deserve to feel fierce, happy, confident and comfortable within yourself," she added.
