1. She Prioritizes Self-Care

“To me self-care and wellness are not just about my hair, body, and skin; but most importantly, it’s about my mind-set,” Chanel told StyleCaster. “What you feed your spirit is what guides you. Staying positive and on top of the regimens that keep you shining is what will keep you confident that your self-care is working. If you wake up with a blah attitude, your day will be blah. But if you energize your day looking forward to what the world has to offer, your day will make you smile,” she continued. She makes time, no matter what. “With a busy schedule most of the time, self-care may seem like there is no time. The truth is, it doesn’t take much time once you implement it into a routine you can count on. Keep it simple—and when you do have a little extra time, add an hour or so to include additional pampering like spa time or an extra workout.”

2. She Eats Healthy, All Day Every Day

Healthy eating is a lifestyle for Chanel. “For me, I work [self-care] in by eating very healthy every day, three times a day. I’ll have a healthy breakfast, lunch, then a nice dinner. I grew up on soul food, and that used to be my favorite, but as much as I love those foods, I’ve become a little more health-conscious. Now, I gear more toward healthy dishes like steamed vegetables and healthy delicious salads,” she told StyleCaster.

3. She Keeps Her Life Clutter-Free

Want to prioritize your mental health, like Chanel? Get organized. “I keep my closet organized and clutter free so I’m not overwhelmed by a mess. It makes it easy to find just the right thing to wear for the day, in addition to my shoe closet, all my sneakers are in boxes, marked with a picture of the shoe so I know what’s in each box. My jeans, accessories, hats, and workout gear are all organized for easy access. I love my putting on great workout pieces, a New Era Cap and head out the door,” she told StyleCaster.

4. She Takes Baths

One way Chanel winds down at the end of the night is by bathing. “At the end of the day, I like to take time to take a nice, warm bath and really make sure my face is clean. Nighttime is the time where I set a little time aside each day. Otherwise, when my schedule slows down and I have some down time, it gives me great joy to take this time to really pamper myself with trying out new products, a new recipe, sitting back, and relaxing with my husband and look at a movie or binge on a show,” she told StyleCaster.

5. She Plays Basketball

Chanel is a big fan of hoops. “I love basketball,” she told Muscle & Fitness. “I used to play when I was a teenager, and I actually went to a UCLA all-boys basketball camp and was named MVP.”

6. She Works Out

Iman is a big fan of HIIT style workouts. Trainer Kirk Myers shared an Instagram Story from his Dogpound gym. She also is a big fan of spinning. Her husband, football player, Sterling Shepard, told Hollywoodlife that she was working to get back into shape after the birth of their daughter via classes. "She's been working her tail off every morning going to SoulCycle," he said.

7. She Eats Vegan Once a Week

Chanel eats a plant-based meal at least once a week. “We have a chef Monday through Friday, and he’s been making vegan and veggie-based meals that are so well seasoned, they taste exactly like meat. We’ll have a vegan meal about once a week. That’s something new for me. I’m not vegetarian at all, but I’m now open to having nice healthy vegan meals. I also like to eat a salad before the meals he serves. He makes really good avocado salad, watermelon salads — just a mix of lots veggies and proteins,” she told StyleCaster.

How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Millie Court stays in shape and the photos that prove they work—and to get beach-ready yourself, don't miss these essential 30 Best-Ever Celebrity Bathing Suit Photos!

1. She Has Learned to Love Herself

“HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WOMENS DAY ✨ Today is a day where we can celebrate us. I have so many women in my life who inspire me every day and I wanted to give a little something today that can hopefully inspire one of you. Loving our imperfections can be difficult, but when you learn to embrace them and realise that our imperfections don’t define us, they are just a part of us alongside everything else that creates you as a person. None of us are the same, and that’s a special thing. We are one of a kind 🤍 This picture shows me at my most vulnerable… but I’m learning to love myself, imperfections and all. And so should you,” she wrote once.

2. She Was Once “Unhealthily Skinny”

"I went from a size 10 to a six, and it’s the smallest I’ve ever been as a young adult. Because of my height, this made me look unhealthily skinny, of which I was (not eating barely anything, feeling ill all the time, tired, dizzy) and I remember looking at myself, I’d lost my boobs and my bum and those curves I once had and I missed them,” she wrote on Instagram. "The point of this [is], since coming out of Love Island, I found my love for food again and yes I’m getting back to my usual size."

3. She Likes a Nice Bath

“Drowning my sorrows in the bath because my Met Gala invite got lost 💔…,” she captioned one recent photo. Consider adding Epsom salt. “Pour about 300 grams (1.25 cups) of Epsom salt into a clean bathtub as it fills with hot water. (Avoid using Epsom salt in a tub with jets, a hot tub or a whirlpool bath unless the manufacturer says it’s OK.),” says the Cleveland Clinic.

4. This is Her Skin Icon

"At the moment the make-up I use does change fairly often, not necessarily my staples like concealer and foundation, but I do switch up the bronzers, blushers and mascara that I use,” she has said. Her icon? "Meghan Markle, her skin is absolutely flawless – her make-up always looks lovely as her make-up always looks lovely and natural."

5. She Has Had Acne

“I suffered from acne about a year and a half ago and then I started to work with a skin aesthetician, who helped me to find my skincare routine and helped me to start dealing with the breakouts. Now that my acne has gone, we are on more of a journey to find the right products; doing treatments like microneedling once a month to deal with the scarring. I am so happy with the outcome because the difference from what it was to now is just incredible. I genuinely used to think there was never going to be a time when I could get rid of the acne and I think when you are suffering you think it’s going to be with you forever. Don’t get me wrong, it isn’t an overnight process – it took me a year and a half to be acne free, but through a good skincare routine and using the right products it can be combated. My skin aesthetician advised me that the products you use to treat acne don’t start working for 4-6 months, so it took six months before I started to see a difference. The secret to good skin is also about good lifestyle, it’s all about looking after the inside to make your skin glow,” she told Hello.

Serhant and her husband struggled to have children. She wrote a revealing piece about the process for Parents.com. In it, Serhant says that the process helped her and her husband work out their issues. “We bonded more than ever before. I finally stopped expecting him to be a superhero with the ability to read my mind and started to understand him more. I respected him for stepping up and really being there. In many ways, I'm grateful we got the time to rebuild our relationship with an even stronger foundation, before we welcomed our daughter.”
