The former Hollyoaks star is the face of Ultimo's D-G range

Gemma Atkinson has proved once again why she's one of the nation's favourite pin-ups.

The model's skimpy blue bikini barely contained her surgically-enhanced 34E breasts as she lapped up the Spanish sun while on a romantic break with boyfriend Marcus Bent.

Atkinson, 23, spent some time making waves in the sea before enjoying a passionate embrace with the 29-year-old footballer.

The starlet first set pulses racing with her appearance on reality TV show I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! in 2007, where her ample physical attributes made an impression.

However the shapely actress lost some of her curves during the fortnight on the show, due to the sparse jungle diet and her rigorous daily exercise regime.

This left the self-confessed "gym-freak" in a panic - especially as it meant a breast decrease.

However judging from these pictures, Atkinson has clearly regained her curves.

The glamour girl, who is the face of Ultimo's D-G range, has had a turbulent relationship with striker Bent.

The couple, who are currently building a home together, started dating a couple of years ago after meeting at a party.

He was engaged to Kelly Clark, the mother of his two-year-old daughter, at the time.

After they split up, Atkinson dated Manchester United footballer Cristiano Ronaldo and was linked to Newcastle United player Alan Smith.

But if their fun in the sun is anything to go by, the couple are sizzling hot.
