Lady Amelia Spencer and husband Greg Mallett are enjoying a beautiful trip to the Maldives. Spencer (the niece of the late Princess Diana) and Mallett tied the knot on March 21, 2023 in South Africa, and have been in honeymoon mode ever since. Spencer shared pictures of herself in a white swimsuit, posing next to her new husband on the beach. “The first few days of our magical honeymoon ☀️🏝️,” she captioned the post. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Spencer 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. Stretching Exercises

Spencer starts her workouts with stretching—namely, Downward-Facing Dog. “It targets everywhere in the body which is known to get tight,” says her trainer Lee Mullins. “So things like the shoulder, the upper back, the hips, the hamstrings. With one stretch, we target every area.”

2. Hip Circles

Spencer uses resistance bands for a side bridge with hip circles (at least 30 seconds of repetitions). “It’s a fantastic drill to target the glutes, and also the obliques and side abdominals which we refer to as something called ‘the pillar’,” Mullins says. “Which is something that needs to be strong. Especially when we’re getting into some of the bigger moves in the workout.”

3. Bird Dog With Row

Spencer does single-leg side planks, then an exercise called bird dog with row. “It’s a fantastic exercise for working your posterior oblique sling, which is a line of muscles which are really important for things like posture and running technique,” Mullins says.

4. Standing Leg Single Clam

Spencer also does lying tricep extensions and standing leg single clam. She uses the resistance band again for this move. “It’s working the abdominals, it’s working the glutes, and you’re asking the legs to work as well,” Mullins says. "Working with a resistance band and in circuits will help you get your heart rate up, which will increase fat burn and muscle building," says the Mayo Clinic.

5. Swimming

Spencer is a confident and accomplished underwater swimmer. “Swimming can improve mood in both men and women,” says the CDC. “For people with fibromyalgia, swimming can decrease anxiety, and exercise therapy in warm water can decrease depression and improve mood.”

Millie Court, star of Love Island, sends “Postcards from Ibiza 🖤✨,” as she captioned a new swimsuit photo. “MILLIEEEEE 😍😍🔥,” said Kaz Kamwi in the comments. “Omg 😍😍😍😍😍,” said Liberty Poole. 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

Pride Of Britain Awards 2021 - Red Carpet ArrivalsMike Marsland/WireImage

“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.

1. She Doesn’t Follow Fad Diets but Believes in “More of a Balance”

"I actually kind of struggled when I first started chartering with Americans, because Americans have a lot of those fad diets and things like that," Hannah told Bravo. "It was so funny: I remember my first season, it was like, 'Oh, can we get a craft cocktail?' I’m like, 'Yeah, sure.' Then I walk around, and I'm like, 'What … is a craft cocktail? Because in Europe, we just don’t have those sorts of things — all those buzzy diets. It's more of a balance."

2. She Has a Personal Trainer

Bravo's "Below Deck" PremiereSteve Zak Photography/FilmMagic

"I would love to have a consistent routine but it’s so hard when you travel as much as I do," Hannah told Bravo. "I have a personal trainer who I work with in Sydney, and then try to always have a hotel with a gym. My secret is to have no regime! If I’m jet lagged at 3 a.m., I work out then!"

3. She Walks Along the Water

“Even after all these years, water still calms me!” she told Us. “You can also alternate periods of brisk walking with leisurely walking. This type of interval training has many benefits, such as improving cardiovascular fitness and burning more calories than regular walking. And interval training can be done in less time than regular walking,” says the Mayo Clinic.

4. She Wears Athleisure Wear

"The reason I started wearing active wear outside the gym was because I travel so much," she told us. "It’s so comfy to wear on long-haul flights and removes the need to get changed on the plane!"

5. She Uses All-Natural Beauty Products

“The best way to know what's in your products is by reading the list of ingredients,” says the Mayo Clinic. “Ingredients to avoid include:

  • Butylated hydroxyanisole or butylated hydroxytoluene, or BHA or BHT, respectively

    These preservatives are found in lipsticks, moisturizes and some food items.

  • Coal tar dyes

    They are used as a colorant in hair dye and often labeled as "p-Phenylenediamine" or "CI" followed by a five-digit number.

  • Diethanolamine, or DEA

    This is used to make products sudsy. It can be found in cleansers, soaps and shampoos.

  • Dibutyl phthalate, or DBP

    This is a plasticizer found in nail polish.”

1. She Got A Wake Up Call

Hamlin has been open about her struggles with an eating disorder, and how close she came to peril. She says that she was able to get help and recover when she noticed how bad she looked one day. This encouraged her to go out and get help. Hamlin told The Skinny Confidential podcast, “I think the most important thing is you need to want to get better. And I know that this is a difficult one because a lot of people probably don’t and it’s really hard. I woke up looking in the mirror and being like, ‘Holy guacamole, you are really skinny and it is very scary.’”

2. She Has A Supportive Family

Hamlin is extremely close to her family—mom Lisa Rinna and dad Harry Hamlin—and said on The Skinny Confidential podcast that they helped her recover from her eating disorder. “I woke up one morning at my best friend’s house. My parents, my sister, they’re all outside, like waiting to pick me up. And I’m like, ‘What are you doing here?’ Like it’s Saturday morning. And they’re like, ‘Get in the car. We’re going to UCLA.”

3. She Enjoys Carbs

Hamlin is in recovery from an eating disorder, and is learning to enjoy eating food again. One type of food she is enjoying now is carbs. She posted this series of photos on Instagram, captioning it, “Just a photo dump of some of the things that make me rly happy.” Two of the photos in the series were a plate of vodka pasta, and a stack of small pancakes.

4. She Loves To Spend Time Outside

Hamlin loves to spend time outside. She has posted several photos of herself enjoying time in the sun on her Instagram. Hamlin has been seen going to the beach, swimming by a waterfall, reading outside, walking the Great Wall of China, and going for a dip in the pool. The CDC said, “The outdoors offers many opportunities to be physically active. Time outdoors may also promote mental health and stress reduction.”

5. She Gives Advice

Hamlin is close with her older sister, Delilah Belle Hamlin. In fact, the two sisters like to give each other advice and help each other out. Delilah told HollywoodLife that she turns to Hamlin for advice often. “I know she’s younger, but she’s so smart. I don’t know how she got so smart at such a young age.”

Love Island winner Millie Court knows how to take the perfect picture and she’s showing off her skills on social media. The British star posted a series of photos of herself wearing an animal print bikini as she posed by the pool in a luxury villa. “All about the angles and pose gals… 🤪😂,” she captioned the post. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways 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. Fresh Orange Juice To Start the Day

Court loves to indulge in a glass of freshly-squeezed orange juice to kick start her day. “Oranges contain health-promoting compounds known as flavanones,” says registered nutritionist Nicola Shubrook. “Research suggests that these phytochemicals help support the body and protect us from conditions such as heart disease and cancer – they’re also thought to have anti-inflammatory, antiviral and antimicrobial benefits. What’s more, orange peel actually contains higher amounts of certain nutrients than the flesh, so using recipes that incorporate the zest of an orange will give your diet an extra boost.”

2. Meghan Markle Is Her Makeup Inspiration

Court is inspired by Meghan Markle’s “flawless” skin and makeup, and tries to emulate her natural aesthetic. “Meghan Markle, her skin is absolutely flawless – her make-up always looks lovely as her make-up always looks lovely and natural,” she says. “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. My staple foundation is Too Faced, but I do switch between Fenty and L’Oreal Infallible. For Concealer I use Revolution or Nars Cream Concealer. I also use Nars blusher, Benefit Hoola Bronzer and Mac Blusher.”

3. She Is True To Herself

Court is now a household name—but she stays down-to-earth. “Obviously, life has just really changed,” she says. “I've realized how important it is to have your friends and family close. Coming out and seeing the papers and people's opinions, I think everyone could see I was genuine in there and just really normal. I love to laugh, I love a drink – I'm a true Essex girl and I think people could see that. So, no matter what happens, I just want to make sure that Essex is still inside me, that I stay true to myself and just enjoy what is happening at the moment!”

4. Dieting Made Her Miserable

ITV Palooza! 2021 - ArrivalsKarwai Tang/WireImage

Court felt under pressure to lose weight before going on TV, something she now regrets. “I’ve always been [before Love Island] fluctuating between a size 8 and 10, but most of the time a size 10,” she says. “I was so happy with the way I looked, I didn’t think twice about it. On the weeks leading up to Love Island I felt the need to lose several pounds because I knew I was going to be surrounded by beautiful slim girls. I worked out every single day and ate salad for lunch and to tell you the truth I was miserable whilst doing it. I’d changed whilst I was on the show for several reasons that’s probably for another story time. But I went from a size 10 to a 6, 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 etc) and I remember looking at myself, I’d lost my boobs and my bum and those curves I once had and I MISSED them.”

5. She Loves Her Curves

Court put on weight after leaving Love Island, and couldn’t be happier with her new curves. "There was a point where people thought I was pregnant because I was putting on loads of weight," she says. "When I was on Love Island I was a size 6 but now I’m a size 10. But I prefer me as a 10 because I’ve got my [chest] back, I’ve got my bum back and I’ve got curves. So, I don’t really care what the newspapers have got to say about me being a size 10."

Amelia Gray Hamlin is modeling in her swimsuit. In one of her latest social media posts, the daughter of Harry Hamlin and Lisa Rinna shows off her amazing body in a bathing suit. “I’m a fairy,” she captioned the photo shoot, frolicking in a wooded lake area. “You ARE,” commented fellow nepo baby Scout Willis. “Icon,” added another follower. How does the young poser approach health and happiness? Here are 5 things she does to keep herself grounded.


1. She Meditates

In a recent interview with W, Amelia revealed that she manifested her modeling career. She sai that after relocating from Los Angeles to New York City, she purchased a stack of fashion magazines, out images from W, Perfect, and CR Fashionbook, and created a dream board. “We burned candles and played music and guided meditations while we sat on the floor, boarding for probably five hours,” she said. “I know it sounds hoo-ha witchy, but I really believe in the power of positive thinking.”

2. She “Mentally Recharges”

The model is all about self-care. "I am an extremely introverted person, which is of course a blessing and a curse. After a shoot, it is very important for me to mentally recharge, as I probably have another one the following day. I need to decompress from the character(s) that I have been putting all my energy into all day so that I can master a new one tomorrow!” Amelia told Vogue France.

3. She Reads

Amelia unwinds with books. “Reading for me is the ideal way to detach at the end of a working day. I am really into Abraham Hicks, Joe Dispenza or Wayne Dyer books to name a few. Right now I am reading The Untethered Soul by Michael A. Singer, which I can highly recommend,” she told Vogue.

4. She Values Kindness

“My parents taught me how important kindness is,” Amelia told Vogue. “I truly live by the idea that the most beautiful woman can walk in the room and quickly become the ugliest simply by how she treats others. My parents also taught me to work harder tomorrow than I did today.”

5. She Wants to “Embrace” Her “Flaws and Insecurities to Inspire Others”

“I have so many dreams. A lot of that involves of course covers of magazines and campaigns. But, at the end of the day, I want to be known as an artist that inspires people. I want to represent unapologetic and unique beauty from the inside. I want to embrace my flaws and insecurities to inspire others to love themselves for who they are. Everyone deserves to feel beauty and confidence. I hope I can play a role in that,” Amelia told Vouge.

Sophie Guidolin Shares Workout Routine

Fitness expert Sophie Guidolin shares her intense workouts on Instagram, inspiring others to push themselves.

Sophie Guidolin is a fitness expert and IFBB competitor. She shares a lot of her favorite workouts on her Instagram. In a recent video, she is seen doing pull-ups and RDLs with a barbell. Guidolin captioned the post, “Your self-worth comes on the backside of doing the work. Are you proud of your actions, when no one is looking? Do you say what you say you’re going to do?”

She Does Pull-Ups

Guidolin is seen doing pull-ups in her Instagram video. According to Gymless, this exercise has a lot of benefits. “Pull-ups can give size and strength to your upper body muscles. It allows you to target your lats, biceps, traps, and many more muscles. Practicing this consistently along with other variations that target different muscle groups, inevitably will give you the muscular aesthetics that you’re seeking. A study emphasized this by suggesting that this close kinetic chain exercise is designed to increase the muscular strength and endurance of the upper body and torso.”

She Lifts Weights

Guidolin is seen using weights to workout in her Instagram video. ACE Fitness states that these exercises have a lot of benefits. “Using heavy weights increases intramuscular coordination, the number of type II motor units and the amount of muscle fibers engaged within a specific muscle. Have you ever felt your muscles shaking while lifting heavy weights? This is because you are recruiting and activating the larger type II muscle fibers, which are only stimulated to work when a muscle is challenged with heavy resistance or working to fatigue.”

She Does RDLs

Guidolin is seen doing RDLs with a weight in her Instagram video. NASM states that the exercise is very beneficial. “A Romanian deadlift is a hip-hinge pattern that works the hamstrings and glutes. It is a form of deadlift with noticeably less bend in the knee, leading to greater hamstring engagement than traditional deadlifts.”

She Braces Her Core

Guidolin has an impressive core. She shared her secrets behind it in the caption of this Instagram video. Guidolin revealed that she doesn’t do traditional core workouts, but braces her muscles when she lifts weights. “You’ve probably heard the advice: ‘Breathe in as you lower the weight and breathe out as you lift.’ But when it comes to heavy lifting, people don’t always do that. Instead, I focus on BRACING my core: ➡️ Take a deep breath, tighten your core, and hold your breath as you lift. After the lift, exhale quickly, take another breath, and repeat. This comes naturally - think about how you instinctively hold your breath and brace when lifting something heavy at home. Bracing is especially helpful for big compound lifts, like squats and deadlifts. It’s also great for bodyweight exercises like push-ups and planks, helping you stay strong, stable, and in control. Observe your bracing and see what kind of difference it makes. 🫶”

She Does Squats

Guidolin likes to do squats to keep herself in shape. She shared this video on Instagram of herself doing them with a barbell. Guidolin captioned the post, “First time under a the bar low bar in a low time and heaviest/highest volume back squatting since 2019. Felt easy. Flew up. Tried not to over commit to the goal and stuck to my numbers. I had 27 minutes exactly to train. 🫣🤯🥵yes, 27 minutes. 👀 school holidays and the twins in my care means I never want to impact my time with them, so this is what had to be done…

That included: 6 sets low bar back squats. 3 sets hip thrusts 150kgs, mind you 🥵👀. Adductor machine. Lying leg curl. Cable pull throughs. And hit my numbers on every single set, meaning I am either taking the piss normally, or dragging my feet. No excuses, just awareness. I seem to perform better under pain, that all too familiar pattern bias is strong 🥵👀🥺 My goals this year scare me, but not as much as failing. 🫶🏼✔️ go all in.”

Abby Dowse is looking fit and slim in her workout dress. In a new social media post the model flaunts her assets while getting her steps in, wearing a super tight exercise outfit. She shared the clip via her Instagram Stories, also sharing a photo of her breakfast: A bagel sandwich and coffee. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

Strength Training

Abby spends lots of time at the gym strength training with a personal trainer. Her routine includes squats, lunges, rows, planks, and lifting heavy weights. She regularly shares workouts in her Instagram Stories and has a tab devoted to them. According to the Mayo Clinic, strength and weight training help reduce body fat, preserve and increase lean muscle mass, and burn calories more efficiently. Strength training may also help you:

  • Develop strong bones
  • Manage your weight
  • Enhance your quality of life
  • Manage chronic conditions
  • Sharpen your thinking skills

Jump Roping

She also jump ropes. “My type of cardio,” she captioned an Instagram Story clip. “Not only can the repetitive movement of skipping rope elevate your heart rate, work muscles in the arms and legs and burn calories, it may even provide a quick jolt of joy,” says Nike.

Biking

In another Instagram Stories clip, she cycles on a stationary bike. The Cleveland Clinic explains that biking, a low-impact aerobic exercise, is excellent for building muscle, improving strength and flexibility, and improving balance. It can also boost mental health and help other health conditions, including arthritis

Coffee

Abby enjoys the perks of caffeine. She loves coffee. According to the Cleveland Clinic, drinking coffee in moderation has several benefits. “It acts on your brain to improve memory, mood, reaction times, and mental function,” they say, citing a study finding that caffeine can improve endurance and performance during exercise. It is also antioxidant-rich, can ward off diabetes, prevent neurologic disease, lower cancer risk, and ward off depression, they point out.

Sauna

Abby is all about the heat. She enjoys hot saunas. “Sauna got me good 💦😅💯,” she captioned a post. Should you take a dry sauna? While some claim the health benefits of saunas are plentiful, including detoxification, increased metabolism, weight loss, increased blood circulation, pain reduction, antiaging, skin rejuvenation, improved cardiovascular function, improved immune function, improved sleep, stress management, and relaxation, there isn’t a lot of research backing up the claims.

Antje gets a lot of use out of the treadmill. “Before I lift I warm up by walking at an incline for 5-10 minutes,” she says. “And I always end my workout with running in intervals for 5-10 minutes.” Walking on an incline burns more calories than walking fast or even running on a flat surface, so many experts suggest upping your incline. A 2013 study even found that walking on a 2 to 7 percent incline increased heart rate by almost 10 percent compared to running on a flat surface.

Another workout she loves? Cycling. “I also Soul Cycle 3 times a week, which is my new obsession,” she revealed. The Cleveland Clinic explains that biking, a low-impact aerobic exercise, is excellent for building muscle, improving strength and flexibility, and improving balance. It can also boost mental health and help other health conditions, including arthritis.

“My diet is pretty laid back. If I have something big coming up I’ll obviously be more strict on myself but it’s also hard when you have my lifestyle and travel a lot. I try to eat as healthy as I can on a regular basis though. I always make sure to eat a lot of protein, mainly chicken and other lean meats. I also make sure to drink plenty of water!” she told Women Fitness. Why should you focus your meals around protein? According to clinical trials, consuming more protein than the recommended dietary allowance not only reduces body weight (BW), but also enhances body composition by decreasing fat mass while preserving fat-free mass (FFM) in both low-calorie and standard-calorie diets.
