Sarah Jayne Dunn wowed fans as she posed on a luxury sunshine holiday in Dubai with her family.
The Hollyoaks favourite, who was dropped from the soap following her decision to join the subscription site Only Fans known for its adult content, was flooded with compliments as she shared snaps of herself holidaying at the five star Nikki Beach resort.
She posted photos of herself posing in an electric blue swimsuit on the beach, and in another snap the doting mum scooped up her son Stanley in her arms.

Sarah, who is one of the long-running soap's biggest stars, was unable to 'reach a resolution' with bosses over having an Only Fans account.
The actress from Leigh, who has played Mandy Richardson in the Channel Four soap on and off since 1996, said she felt 'disappointed' about the outcome.
A Hollyoaks spokeswoman said that as a 'youth-facing drama with many young viewers' the soap does not allow any Hollyoaks cast members 'to be active on certain 18+ websites.'
They said the show had hoped she could remain in the role as mum Mandy but they 'respected' her choice to stay on OnlyFans.
Sarah said she was 'taking back control' by joining the website and using it to share her 'sexier' images.
And she explained the images shared on OnlyFans are 'no different' to the ones she had already posted on Instagram
"I just decided to switch them over to a different platform, put them somewhere that people who do want to see them can access them and and keep my Instagram more family-friendly," she told GB News.
"I was shocked at the decision and the way that it's gone.
"I'm not doing anything different to what I've done over the years.
"I'm not doing anything different to what I've been doing on on my Instagram account for the last four years that I've been back on the show.
"I've simply just moved the content.
"This is why I'm struggling to understand why it's become such a big issue for them."
She added: "Obviously OnlyFans has the association of being an over 18 platform, which makes it a safer space because a younger audience can't access it, even though the content I'm doing isn't over 18s. It's not explicit."
