Louise Redknapp went from 90s siren to yummy mummy – but Strictly and split from hubby Jamie has sparked return to her sexy best

LOUISE Redknapp appears to be back to her sexy siren best after showing off her regained body confidence in a series of sexy outfits and photoshoots following her time on Strictly Come Dancing.

While the former singer had initially ruled out wearing sexy outfits during her time on the BBC dance competition show, viewers actually saw her outfits flash more and more flesh as the weeks progressed.

At the time, Louise admitted to The Sun she didn't want to wear revealing outfits on Strictly so she didn't make her husband Jamie Redknapp "uncomfortable".

And this week The Sun revealed that the former Eternal beauty's relationship with husband Jamie is over after the pint-sized star moved out of the family mansion and told friends the pair are over.

While the pair are yet to comment about their split, the change in Louise's sartorial approach has been clear to see in recent months.

The star sported a string of dazzling mini dress when she embarked on the Strictly tour after the show had finished.

And her newly found confidence was highlighted further when it was announced she would be on tour from September to December in a production of Cabaret.

Louise oozed sex appeal in the poster announcing the news, wearing black lingerie and sheer stockings whilst straddling a chair and casting a seductive gaze over the camera.

The singer has always been praised for her enviable figure and was never afraid to showcase her figure when she burst onto the scene with Eternal in 1993.

Soon the beauty was stripping off for provocative magazine shoots while topping the charts with saucy hits like Naked and One Kiss From Heaven.

It came as no surprise to some when Louise was voted Sexiest Woman of The Decade during FHM's 100 Sexiest Women Awards in 2004.

However, Louise started cut down on the raunchy shoots after giving birth to her sons Charley and Beau in 2004 and 2008.

Louise took a step back from the limelight to focus on her family and worked on several projects including becoming the face of lingerie brand, Triumph.

However she really jumped back into the public's consciousness when she was announced as a contestant for the 14th series of Strictly.

She reached the finals with the help of her professional dance partner Kevin Clifton, losing out to Ore Oduba.

But the singer certainly won the heart of viewers who relished the chance to see her grow in confidence and perform in outfits she had previously shied away from.

Since 2014, Louise has run her successful fashion blog A Style Album, which now has almost 80,000 Instagram followers.

And fans are sure to see her continue to show off her enviable figure in an array a chic looks in the months to follow.

In April, The Sun first reported that Jamie and Louise’s marriage was in trouble.

At the time, pals close to the couple blamed the infamous Strictly Come Dancing ‘curse’ for putting strain on their relationship.

Louise’s career prospects soared after she appeared on the BBC One show last year and her work schedule was involving a lot of travel.

In July friends told The Sun that Louise has said she and Jamie have split and are formerly living apart.

The Sun’s Dan Wooton has reported that her “close friendship with daisy Lowe” could be to blame.

After the revelation Jamie pulled out press interviews for A League Of Their Own.

Louise is now said to be living 15 minutes away from the family home in Surrey.
