Shameless star Tina Malone goes topless as she shows off 12st weight loss on the beach in Spain
SHAMELESS star Tina Malone showed off her figure after losing 12 stone as she hit the beach in Spain.
The 60-year-old actress wore a vibrant pink halterneck bikini as she soaked up the sun with her daughter Flame, nine.
Tina looked to be having a blast in the Mediterranean Sea as she frolicked in the surf.
She pulled a shocked face as the waves broke over her body while sitting in the wet sand.
The TV star was then pictured trying to outrun the water as it rushed inshore.
Back on the beach, Tina dried off on her towel and applied sunscreen. She stood up and popped on a pair of pink shades as she basked in the warm sunshine.

In a bid to avoid tan lines, Tina whipped off her bikini top. A tattoo of her eldest daughter's name, Danielle, could be seen on her lower back.
Tina's Spanish holiday comes after she appeared on Good Morning Britain last week to debate whether or not northerners are funnier than southerners.
Speaking on behalf of the former, she said: "I'm telling ya know, northerners generally are funnier, kinder, sweeter and I've got nothing against people in the south."
Tina lost a staggering amount of weight after having a gastric band fitted in 2010.

The operation saw her drop from a size 28 to a size six.
Though she had to have further operations to remove excess skin, Tina urged anyone considering it to go for it.
Speaking on This Morning, she said: "My advice is, if you can pay for acrylics and cigarettes, save up for a gastric band.
“Save your life. It has changed me as a person. I am less angry."
Last year, Tina had a facelift because she feared she looked "miserable";.
She loved the result, telling Closer that she felt "healthier, sexier and prettier than ever."
