Former Little Mix star Jesy Nelson looks 'unreal' in tiny pink bikini

Jesy Nelson has shared a stunning bikini photo as she "catches some rays" in an unknown location.

The former Little Mix star looks incredible, in a tiny pink, snakeskin two-piece, with voluminous curly locks.

The 29-year-old singer quit the girl band in December after nine years, when she said in a statement that being part of the band had "taken a toll" on her mental health.

Last month, she told Cosmopolitan : "The last music video we did was the breaking point.

"We’d been in lockdown, and [that had been] the first time I could have a break and be at home around people that I love. It was the happiest I’d ever felt, and I didn’t realise that until I went back to work.

"I immediately became a different person. I had anxiety. Whenever we had a music video, I put an enormous amount of pressure on myself to try and lose weight."

Since leaving the band, Jesy has been back in the studio - or as she calls it her "happy place" - in recent weeks, and has teased fans she could be releasing solo material.

In mid-February, Jesy posted a snap saying "let's go" along with music emojis and later that day posted an Instagram story from a recording studio.

Another post in May showed the studio setup with the caption "I nearly just cried at the song we've wrote today that's how excited I am for you guys to hear this" [sic] with a pleading face emoji and three hidden face monkey emojis.

Today, she shared a simple bikini snap to her eight million followers.

Captioning the image on her official Instagram page, Jesy simply said: "Catching the ray".

One fan wrote: "Unreal, just unreal"

Another asked: "Are you a parking ticket 'cause you've got fine written all over you."

A third simply wrote: "Marry me"
