Danica, 36, is a wellbeing and performance coach who posts about her life, keeping fit, and helping others on her page.

The rising star used to take part in bikini competitions - like pop star Olly Murs' fiancée Amelia.

The stunning contestants are judged on their lean and firm physiques.

And Danica, who hails from London, can be seen modelling different bikinis in her old pictures as she poses with fellow competitors.

She captioned one post back in 2016: "I get confused between #throwbackthursday and #transformationtuesday 🔫 Anyway this is a #tb but we very much #transformed ourselves… losing our bikini competition virginities together."

Speaking about joining SAS: Who Dares Wins, Danica recently said: "Keeping this quiet for the last 4 months has been tough, but no where near as tough as this course or the jungle. It is no joke!!

"Tune in on Monday night to witness me and my fellow AMAZING recruits face the toughest most gruelling physical experience of our lives."

This year's series sees a major change as 20 new recruits will challenge themselves to complete the punishing jungle phase of SAS Selection in Vietnam.
