Katie, 43, has been soaking up the rays while on her exotic Thai holiday with boyfriend Carl Woods, 33.

Meanwhile other celebrities have to rely on a bottle for a bronze glow at this time of the year - but it doesn't always go to plan. Here we reveal the most unfortunate tanning fails.

She shared a naked snap to Instagram, covering her boobs with gloved hands, showing her body covered in dark brown smears.

She captioned the raunchy pic: "Oh dear I tried this new fake tan last night I’m going to shower now I hope ends up ok."

Many fans were bemused by the tanning job - with one likening her to a bronze statue.

But others looked past it to compliment Katie's stunning figure.

Onlookers were left speechless when Christina Aguilera appeared at Etta James’ funeral service in 2012 to perform ‘At Last’.

Unfortunately not by the performance, but rather her fake tan fiasco.

Known as a fake bake lover, Christina has seen some tanning mishaps over the years - but these sweat drips are probably the most unfortunate.

The former Love Islander shared an amusing festive fake tan fail at in December 2019.

Taking to Instagram, she revealed she'd "dribbled" in her sleep, causing an uneven complexion.

She wrote: "How’s all your Christmases going? If you’re wondering about mine, I’ve just fallen asleep on the sofa for two hours and I’ve dribbled off most of the fake tan from my face."

While competing on Strictly in 2021, the Olympic swimmer willingly jumped on the tanning bandwagon.

But he suffered a mishap when he only got the upper-half of his body done, because he was wearing jeans for his dance.

So when he stripped down to his swimming trunks, his pale legs meant he sported a nice two-tone look.

Bemused, he tweeted: "I should’ve probably got my legs spray tanned too. Completely forgot my actual job requires me to be almost naked."

The BBC Breakfast host was also likened to Ross from Friends after a hilarious fake tan fail during his Strictly stint last year.

Dan was left wide-eyed at his own reflection when he overdid it in the tanning booth.

Sharing a selfie on Twitter, he wrote: "Do you ever get the feeling that you’ve left something in the oven too long? #RossFromFriends #IHopeItWashesOff #Tantastic," - much to the amusement of his fans.

When Gemma Collins tweeted a pic of her bronzed face back in 2014, she failed to see what the rest of us did.

With a mismatched tan on her face, many fans teased her appearance, with one joking she looked like a chimney sweep.

These days her coverage tends to be much more even!

It wouldn’t be a fake tan disaster collection without Kim K.

In 2010 she stepped out with distinctly bronzed limbs - but her white palms created an unfortunate contrast.

Nobody wants mahogany-stained palms - but if you’re aiming for a bronzed, sun-kissed look you’ve got to make sure everything matches.

With perfect hair, nails and flawless make-up, it was a shock when Ashley suffered a fake tan fail like the rest of us.

Posting on Twitter, Ashley revealed she'd slept with her hands on her chest, leaving her looking, well, a little bit mismatched.

With a full day of meetings ahead of her all, it was time for a turtle neck jumper and some serious exfoliating.
