Ferne McCann praised for showing off ‘real’ post-baby body as she strips off to a bikini in the Maldives

FERNE McCann has been praised for showing off her "real" post-baby body.

The mum-of-two, 33, welcomed daughter Finty in July and recently jetted to the Maldives with fiancé Lorri Haines and eldest daughter Sunday, six.

Former Towie star Ferne stunned as she stripped two a brown two piece and told her followers: "My body shows up for me EVERY single day & it deserves my wholehearted love!

"So shout out to all of the ladies who are just working on loving their bodies because that sh*t's hard."

One fan commented: "Beautiful inside and out."

Someone else said: "You are an inspiration for women young and old falling back in love with their bodies."

And a third added: "You look amazing wish I felt this good after giving birth."

Ferne later shared a clip of her getting ready for a day of "poolside glam" - looking incredible in a black swimsuit and matching cover up.

It comes after Ferne looked ecstatic as she squeezed into her old jeans in a video posted to Instagram last week.

Claiming she hadn't been able to do up her trousers for two months, Ferne looked apprenhensive while wearing just her underwear.

But after successfully fitting into them, Ferne shared her excitement about wearing the outfit to an event.

She wrote in her caption, "You lot won’t believe it…..I’ve only gone and got myself into my jeans ….I am absolutely BUZZING!"
