HELEN Flanagan dazzled in a nautical stripe bikini as she soaked up the sunshine on holiday.
The former Coronation Street star, 35, opted for the blue and white patterned swimwear which gave a glimpse at her toned figure.
Helen brushed her blonde locks into a blonde up-do and pulled on a pair of sunglasses.
She was seen giving her eldest daughter Matilda a hug before they headed on a boat ride in Italy.
The actress was heard asking her while on board: "You OK babe?" to which she simply replied: "Yeah."
The pair then enjoyed a cuddle on the shore after Helen picked up a drink.
Helen's bikini look came just days after she wowed in a gold bodysuit dress to celebrate her birthday.
In her caption, she looked back on her Thirties as a decade and said: "Loved my 30s so far so much feel very blessed.
"I got my beautiful dream boy Charlie. I got to watch Matilda grow into the most amazing little girl and my amazing precious darling Delilah x.
"Did lots of things in my career that I wanted to do, achieved things that I wanted to do and a hell of a lot of growing.
"There’s been a fair share of heartache but I wouldn’t change anything, I think it’s best to feel and love with your whole heart less what’s the point?
"I get to write the last half of my thirties and I’m excited for this age."

She told The Sun in a recent interview: "It's really difficult. I won't have the kids for Christmas this year because it's such hard work because me and Scott, he's from Bath and I live in North Manchester, so we co-parent five hours away. Really hard work.
