Bella Hadid looks amazing as she strips off to black bikini on a yacht in France

BELLA Hadid looked like she was living the good life as she joined a host of pals on board a yacht in France. 

The 27-year-old model stripped down to a tiny black bikini to top up her tan while taking time away from the Cannes Film Festival.

Wearing a brown slip dress to walk around the seaside town, Bella then stripped down to a teeny thong bikini to lounge on her chartered yacht, Beau Reve (French for ‘Beautiful Dream’). 

Laying on the deck to top up her tan, Bella was seen enjoying an ice lolly as she gossiped and laughed with friends. 

Showing off her model figure, the Victoria’s Secret star’s rock hard abs were on full display as she stretched in the sun. 

Once the boat anchored near the Lérins Islands, Bella took a dive by leaping straight into the sea with a huge grin on her face. 

After she’d cooled down she pulled herself back on board, flashing her bum as she did so. 

Naturally, time yachting gives her the perfect excuse for a photo session, with her being snapped some sexy pictures while showing off her own perfume, Orebella, which launched earlier this month. 

Bella takes little persuasion to head out on a boat, being spotted on another yacht earlier this weekend. 

During that excursion, it seems she took some inspiration from the film festival and was playing with a video camera. 

Before she followed her sister down the catwalk as a model, Bella had aspirations of becoming a photographer.

“There wasn’t really one time in my life where I was like, ‘I want to be a model!’ It was more Gigi’s thing,” she told Teen Vogue in 2014.

“I do like being in front of the camera more and more. Having experience behind it has taught me about lighting and angles, how to move, and what looks good and what doesn’t.”

It seems she's returning to what she loves after addressing her recovery from burn out earlier this year.

She told Vogue Italia she had struggled with burnout in 2021 after years of high pressure work as a model, but insists she is now “lucid and present."

Bella said: “Life is not only made up of victories and great feats, but also of failures and obstacles to overcome.”
