Flanagan is all about self-love and having confidence with her body. She has spoken about this on social media and in interviews. “It’s nice to celebrate your body and what’s good about it,” she said to Closer. “I really like my figure - curves are sexier than being stick-thin - and I don’t see why I shouldn’t wear clothes that show it off.”

2. She Wants To Promote A Healthy Body Image

Flanagan has three children, and she wants to be a role model for them. Especially when it comes to how they view health and their bodies. After having her third child, Flanagan opened up about how she is losing the baby weight and her approach on Instagram. "I am naturally slim, I eat what I want, when I want and do not diet,” she writes. "I have cellulite, and my tummy sticks out more now after having Charlie, but I don't care. I want to be a good role model for my girls and teach them to love themselves exactly as they are."

3. She Wants To Encourage Others

Flanagan is all about encouraging other people, especially women. She talked about this in this Instagram post. “I shared a fashion reel a few days ago, and I was a bit taken back from the not so nice comments I got on the post. I was more shocked that the majority of them were from women. I’m a girls girl and very much for other women, and I always have another woman's back. I don’t believe women should comment negatively about other women.”

4. She Stands Up For Herself

Flanagan has no time for haters, especially those who comment on her parenting. After being mom-shamed, she hit back on Instagram. "I'm probably babbling, but yeah that really irritates me, when people are just mean to mums,” she says. “I won't go into the conversation too much because it's just too long, I just get really really annoyed when people aren't nice to mums."

5. She Supports Causes

Flanagan doesn’t just stand up for herself, but for others. She supports causes that are important to her. After Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, she shared her support for Ukraine on Instagram. Flanagan wrote, “I am truly devastated for all Ukrainians. My heart hurts.”

1. She Loves Performing

“Performing is one of my favorite parts of my job. I love the energy of the crowds, moving around the stage and interacting with my band. I don’t really get nervous anymore—I just get really excited. I have an insane amount of energy before I hit the stage. I do a lot of stretching and vocal exercises to get myself centered and both physically and mentally prepared, and then I’m ready to go!” she told W.

2. She Wears This Mask

“I have combination skin, and unfortunately am prone to breaking out if I do a lot of appearances in a row or if I’m on tour. It’s super important for me to use products that are soothing. La Mer has an incredible skincare line that really helps keep my skin looking fresh. I’m also a big fan of using a light therapy face mask, which helps to kill bacteria and calms inflammation,” she told W.

3. She Takes Vitamin C

“Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is a water-soluble vitamin that supports growth and development. It also helps your body absorb iron. Because your body doesn't make or store vitamin C, it's important to include vitamin C in your diet,” says the Mayo Clinic. “Most people can get enough vitamin C for the day in their food. An orange or a cup of strawberries, chopped red pepper or broccoli provides enough vitamin C for the day. The recommended daily amount for vitamin C is 75 milligrams (mg) a day for women and 90 mg a day for men. During pregnancy, 120 mg a day are recommended. The upper limit for all adults is 2,000 mg a day.”

4. This is What She Does to Indulge Herself

“To indulge and treat myself, I’ve definitely been doing a lot of online shopping. [I've] discovered things I wouldn’t usually buy, but actually work really well, like overall jumpers. I wear them over my button-up shirts, which I never really used to do before, but I’m obsessed with at the moment. I’ve also been indulging myself with a lot of skin care and a lot of self-love in the mirror,” she told the Zoe Report.

5. Here’s Her Take on Fashion

"For me, every day I wake up feeling like, 'OK, what do I want to conquer today?' and that helps me get dressed," Ora told TZR. "I always wear a tight pair of pants to make myself feel really sexy and feminine. Ones I recently discovered and I can't take off are the [Maison] Margiela shiny pants. They're high-waisted and they make your legs look super long."

Filipino star Sheena Halili is determined not to let preconceived notions about motherhood keep her out of sexy swimsuits. The TV host posted a beautiful snap of herself wearing a black two-piece on the beach, looking happy and healthy. “People have been talking about what kind of swimsuits moms should wear and why is that? There shouldn't be a ‘one size fits all’ when you're dressing as a mom. As long as you're comfortable in it--no matter how much skin you're showing (or not!) you should go on and wear it! 😘,” she captioned the post. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Halili 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 Scuba Dives

Halili is a big fan of scuba diving, and practises as much as she can. “In addition to being a good cardio workout, scuba diving is a great way to build muscle strength and endurance,” says Scuba.com. “Swimming, especially against a current, forces divers to use muscles in their legs, core, and arms. This effort helps to build lean muscle mass and promote muscular endurance. This makes scuba diving a great way to increase strength without putting too much stress on your joints. And don’t forget about those tanks! Carrying scuba tanks and other gear is another way to improve upper body strength. Additionally, lifting tanks activates muscles in your arms, back, and core, making diving a true full body workout!”

2. She Always Makes Space For ‘Alone Time’

Halili takes ‘me-time’ coffee breaks whenever she can. “As a psychologist, I know the research, and the research is clear: Alone time is essential for emotional/mental/ spiritual/social/physical health, and a key element of true happiness,” says Dr. Christina Hibbert. “By ‘alone time’ what I really mean is time away from your role as a mother—time to be YOU, to unwind, relax, rest, revive. This can include taking a nap, sleeping in, reading, hiking, going out with a friend, doing a project or activity you enjoy, or anything that helps you feel like the real you and builds your health and strength. Some need more or less alone time, but all will benefit from a few minutes each day, hours each week, and/or days away each year.”

3. She Loves to Swim

Halili is an avid swimmer and loves spending time in the water. “Swimmers have about half the risk of death compared with inactive people,” says the CDC. “People report enjoying water-based exercise more than exercising on land. They can also exercise longer in water than on land without increased effort or joint or muscle pain.”

4. She Uses a Flotation Pod

Halili loves using a flotation pod for relaxation and stress relief. “Healing our body makes us a better person, a better wife & a better mom! #gratitude 🧘 🏻‍♀,” she captioned an Instagram snap of herself using the device. “The flotation pod is a sensory deprivation chamber with water saturated with 360-540kgs of Epsom Salt (aka Magnesium sulfate) used to create buoyancy so you float effortlessly. Additionally, the water is heated to your body’s skin surface temperature, about 34°C. This treatment encourages the brain & body to rebalance itself without intervening external stressors. Floating triggers physiological relaxation, helps relieve physical stress like joint pains, and aches, reduces mental stress like anxiety, depression, lowers cortisol and blood pressure, aids in getting restful sleep, enhances creativity, and boosts overall disposition.”

5. She Loves Pilates

Halili is a big fan of Pilates, and continued practicing it throughout her pregnancy in 2020. “Oftentimes, people feel that their body has been compressed, tense, and tight beforehand but leave the studio feeling more loose and more aware of their body,” says Marina Kaydanova, founder of BK Pilates in New York City.

Florence Pugh in a bathing suit is celebrating her BFF. “Today’s a great excuse to post some incredibly legendary pictures of an incredibly legendary person…. As it’s @olivealicemchugh BIRTHDAY. My ultimate wingwoman. Obvious ride or die. We’re gremlins and elegant all in the same 10 minutes, the perfect combination. There are many things that I’m grateful for in this life, but Livvy being born is one of the biggest. Our memories make me cherish so much of life, our poses keep me guessing for what’s to come next, and her brain is one that I not only adore but find totally unique and beautiful. All in all, we’re all lucky for Livvy. Happy Birthday my sweets. You’re a legend.” Florence looks amazing in her bathing suit. How does she stay so fit?

1. She Reportedly Had to Do CrossFit

“Crossfit is a strength and conditioning program that focuses on everything from coordination to power through an assortment of randomized physical challenges. From box jumps and kettlebell swings to push-ups and lunges, Crossfit strives to provide a total-body, integrated approach to fitness through exercises that are based on the movement patterns of everyday life,” says ACE Fitness.

2. She Loves On-Screen Combat

For her role in Black Widow: “Essentially you need to look good moving. For me, I loved all of that because I grew up with a lot of dance and a lot of movement. I was always fighting my brother [actor and musician Toby Sebastian], so I find all of that combat stuff so exciting. Once you’ve put it on camera you’ve got to know how to make it look right and that’s a whole different beast,” she told Elle UK.

3. She Didn’t Want to be Monitored For the Role

“When I got the job, I wanted to know what the regime was,” she told Elle about Black Widow. “I wanted to know whether it was them or me calling the shots. That was a big deal for me. I didn’t want to be part of something where I was constantly checked on. And people making sure I was in the ‘right’ shape. That’s not me at all.” She added: “Scarlett had this amazing guy who cooked beautiful things for her and her team. I thought that was clever because you’re doing fitness all the time and you need to have someone who’s on top of what you’re eating and the nutrients you’re getting. I remember her asking, ‘Why are you cooking for yourself? Just let us feed you!’ And I was like, ‘Nope.’”

4. She Says This About Body Image

“I did a job where it was made very apparent that I needed to lose weight and when it was over, I was very aware I didn’t want to do that kind of work,” she told Glamour. “Because I was faced with that, I realized what I wanted to represent, and had that not happened, I may not have overcome my issues with my body at such an early age. I’m happy about that, but a lot of women aren’t that lucky.”

5. She Had Tracheomalacia As a Kid

Pugh has a signature raspy voice due to tracheomalacia as a kid. “Tracheomalacia is a rare condition that happens when the cartilage of the windpipe, or trachea, is soft, weak and floppy. This can cause the tracheal wall to collapse and block the airway, making it hard to breathe,” says Cedars-Sinai. “Tracheomalacia can have no symptoms, especially if the condition is very mild. However, the more the airway is blocked, the more severe the symptoms are. Symptoms of tracheomalacia are often attributed to other conditions, such as emphysema or asthma.”

Rochelle Humes first started as a member of the girl group, The Saturdays. Since then, she has become a TV host, and has hosted Ninja Warrior UK and The Hit List.

How does she stay so fit?

Humes makes sure to take care of her hair. She shared some of her secrets to Grazia. Humes says that she keeps her haircare routine simple. “I try not to over complicate it,” she says. “I use a product called Twisted Sista 30 Second Curl Spray, £5.89, that helps to define my curls. You mist it onto super wet hair and scrunch it in. After that, I'll use a curl cream, which I'm constantly switching up, or a leave-in conditioner - both are a great way to keep my curls healthy.”

2. She Stays Moisturized

Humes shared some of her favorite skincare products and tips to WhoWhatWear. She says that staying moisturized is important to her. “I’d put some moisturiser on. I use the Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Face Base (£45), and I just think it’s the best moisturiser for my skin. I use the eye cream as well. It’s the best thing to go on underneath makeup because I can’t bear it when moisturiser starts rolling off when you put stuff on top. This one just sits on the skin really well, and it can hold makeup, which is important.”

3. She Loves Retinol

One of Humes’ favorite skincare products is retinol. She tells WhoWhatWear, “The other bit of advice is that I always put my eye cream on before anything else. I'll use retinol maybe once a week, but because the eye area is so delicate, it means you have a kind of barrier to protect that area before using any actives. I'm really into using different ingredients. You just have to be careful with those harsher things [like retinol], but they work so well. They're nothing to be scared of. You hear hyaluronic acid and think, Acid on my face? But it’s so good for hydration. I adore skincare.”

4. She Loves Pilates

In her WhoWhatWear interview, Humes opened up about her fitness routine, and her favorite exercises. “Pilates is my favourite form of exercise, and I really needed that in lockdown,” she says. “I do feel good after it. As much as I might dread getting up to do it in the morning, I’ve never ever regretted doing an exercise in my life. You just have to think of afterward.”

5. She Embraces Herself

In her WhoWhatWear interview, Humes was asked about what advice she would give others. “You are you for a reason,” she answered. “Embrace your beauty because you are beautiful, and don’t worry about social media because none of it’s real. You know, someone has taken a million selfies to get to the right one. They’ve chosen a good angle, the one they look the best in. We all do it. So just don’t compare yourself to that. You live once, so just enjoy it.”
