Chanelle Hayes shows off incredible 9 stone weight loss in yellow bikini on holiday in Greece
BIG Brother favourite Chanelle Hayes has shown off her incredible NINE stone weight loss in a yellow bikini.
The 35 year-old looked amazing as she soaked up the sun in a tiny two-piece while on holiday in Greece.
The Yorkshire lass appeared happy and relaxed as she splashed around in the pool.
Clearly thrilled with the results of her new physique, the reality star- who appeared in the 2007 series of the iconic fly on the wall show - looked like she was in a much better place as she lathered on sun cream.
It marks a stark contrast to the star's recent instagram post, where she opened up about her mental health struggle and admitted to feeling "confused and lost".
Chanelle sported a camisole style halter neck bikini top in canary yellow, which she paired with matching bottoms and black flip flops.

Her brunette tresses were pulled back into a loose pony tail and she went natural and make up free.
At one point Chanelle paused for thought as she propped her elbows up on the side of the pool and took in her sun soaked surroundings.
Chanelle then went for a stroll around her resort in Corfu, enjoying a well-earned break while studying for her nursing degree.
Chanelle shed an incredible nine stone by undergoing gastric sleeve surgery in 2020 and then following a healthy eating and exercise regime ever since.
She then underwent further surgery to remove excess skin.
But despite her amazing transformation, she has admitted to feeling self-conscious in swimwear.
Last August, she posted on social media:
“I was conscious about wearing a bikini on holiday this year because of my loose skin (I’m the lowest weight I’ve been since 2015) but then I remembered I did all the other years so why would I not anymore?!
“Gave my head a little shake and reminded myself of my post last year: EVERY body is a bikini body."
At the height of her fame in 2009, Chanelle weighed 8.5stone, barely eating and taking laxatives to try and achieve a WAG body - skinny with big boobs.
Unable to find a happy medium, Chanelle would binge eat Dominos pizzas and her weight spiralled out of control.
At her heaviest, she felt too ashamed to leave the house and was at risk of developing diabetes.
