Holly Hagan has been praised for showing off her cellulite in a pair of honest and unfiltered Instagram photos.
The Geordie Shore star has just returned from Portugal after having to cut short her holiday due to the country being moved from the Government's green travel list to amber.
She and fiancé Jacob Blyth headed to the island of Madeira on what should have been their wedding day in Ibiza, with their Balearic nuptials postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic.
While she was there Geordie Shore original Holly posed for two pictures in her bikini and, on uploading them to Instagram, she drew attention to her cellulite.
In a candid host, the 28-year-old wrote: "Cellulite ain’t going anywhere so I might as well embrace it.
"If there’s one good thing that came from my time away it was gaining the confidence to walk around in public without covering my legs.
"Wearing shorts and skirts for the first time and being able to enjoy the sun without worrying"
She ended the post: "This trend of people being more “real” on Instagram has helped me so much and I’m not going to hide anymore"
Immediately showing her support, close friend and former Geordie Shore co-star Charlotte Crosby, who joined her on holiday, commented: "You looked f***ing insane all holiday always have always will"
Other half Jacob responded by posting a trio of heart eyed emojis, while ex Love Island star Malin Andersson used a series of applause emojis to make her feelings clear.
Fitness guru Courtney Black replied: "Love this Holly" and praising Holly's honesty, a fan wrote: "Thank you for being honest and sharing this. I admire the courage it takes to demonstrate a level of vulnerability and hope others follow your wonderful example to be proud of our bodies!"
Another reacted: "it's wonderful what you're doing, encouraging other girls to be themselves, you don't need photoshop, because YOU ARE PERFECT!!!!
