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.

2. She Mixes Up Her Workouts

Heaton tells the DailyMail that she doesn’t like to just do one particular workout. Heaton says that she loves to change up her exercises. “I mix up my workouts up so my body is always guessing and never gets used to what I'm doing,” she says.

3. She Believes In Moderation and Indulging Once In A While

When it comes to her diet, Heaton is a believer in balance, and says she indulges occasionally. “I very rarely slip up with my food in the house but I reward my hard work with date nights and eating out at weekends,” she said to the DailyMail. “It's all a balancing act with maintenance, if you’re good 70 per cent of the time you should enjoy the other 30 per cent.”

4. She’s Sober

Heaton is open about her struggles with addiction, her stint in rehab, and how her addiction affected her body. She tells OK! Magazine, “I was skinny but I had a very big hard belly and my liver was protruding. I also wasn’t washing for days and my hair was falling out and had become very thin because of the alcohol abuse and hormones. I’d gone down to 7st 13lbs. My body was shutting down and couldn’t function without the alcohol. I’d be sick with it but I’d be worse without it and shaking. So many times I would wake up in the morning and scream for help, knowing no one was in the house." Heaton says that she is in a much better place these days, and is now sober.

5. She Does Yoga

Heaton revealed on Instagram that she practices yoga and meditation, and that it’s been great for her health. She captioned the photo, “Time to centre ones self! Doesn’t have to be at a spa … a floor… peace and quiet .. and breathing is all you need. Clear the mind and remain in the day!Put it out and you will receive.”

1. She Keeps a Routine

“I have loads of energy so lately I’ve been trying to channel that into an exercise routine. But I’m still very much a beginner. I now work out three to four days a week because I know it’s an important part of keeping healthy,” she told Women’s Health. “I’m actually finding it quite fun. Once a week, I do a one-hour boxing workout with my trainer Bradley Simmonds, who keeps me motivated; if I’m on my own, I’ll pump up high-energy songs like Bicycle by Vybz Kartel to get me through my workout.”

“Before my trip to Australia for I’m A Celeb, I started a vigorous summer workout plan, which consisted of three sets of burpees, jumping squats and planks (non-stop for 20 seconds then 40 seconds rest), followed by seated shoulder presses (three sets of ten reps), squats (three sets of ten reps), crunches (three rounds of 20 seconds non-stop plus a 40 second rest) and press-ups (three sets of ten reps),” she told Women’s Health. “Although, I prefer weight training on the machines and I still do some cardio. I usually ease myself in with a run or fast walk on the treadmill.”

3. Exercise Helps Her Mentally

“I just think [working out] helps your mental health so much anyway – there’s a difference in how I feel if I go out and do some exercise versus just staying in bed all day. I notice how it impacts my brain and how I’m feeling,” she told Stylist.

4. She Tries to Post Filter-Free Photos

"I did a story saying I'm going to stop using them because you end up getting used to it, and then, when you don't have them on you think 'actually I don't really like how that looks' and it warps your own mind," she explained. "So I've tried to cut down,” she told Cosmo. When she does use a “glam team,” she tries to mention it.

5. She Says This About Showing Off Her Body

“It’s so ridiculous that people use the angle of ‘you’re a woman, you should cover up,’” Jama told Cosmo. “We’re women, we have” chests. “Some people are stuck in the past. You can’t police somebody’s outfit. I’ve put on weight. When I was smaller, nobody would comment about the dresses [I wore] but because my” chest is “bigger now, it’s offensive. You can be the best presenter in the world, but if you’re wearing a low-cut top, that’s going to be the only focus. It is stupid.”

1. She Stays Active With Her Kids

In the same photo on Instagram, Hayes says that she is also an avid biker, and she likes to bike with her son. She writes, “In the left pic, I sat sweating due to my excess body weight watching my son play football. In the right, I had just beaten him at a race of the Monsal trail, so I was sweating for the right reasons!” Hayes continues, “I wasn’t in any agony after this bike ride, I was starving, but pain free. So I finished off with a nice Caesar salad and a side of “smug” from winning the race.”

3. She Doesn’t Use Filters

Hayes posted a photo on Instagram of her body looking two different ways. She revealed that she is the same weight in both photos, but used airbrushing and filters in one photo. Hayes writes that she’s working to accept her body in its natural state, and isn’t using filters on social media. She writes, “Although I still don’t love the look of it and would like to change bits of it- I accept that it’s the real me. It scares me that some of the pictures we post online are so unlike the real us, we wouldn’t actually recognise each other in the street without the editing or filters. At least you know if you see a rough saggy old bird with a flat butt it’s actually me and not that unrecognisable species on the left lol. Also I much prefer the Matalan basics set on the right instead of all those fiddly bits on the fancy sets.”

4. She Doesn’t Eat A Restrictive Diet

In a post on Instagram detailing her weight loss, Hayes revealed what she eats in a day. She also says that she isn’t on any restrictive diets, and feels like they work better for her. She writes, “I feel satiated and full after such small amounts now I never feel like I’m missing out because that gnawing hunger of being on a diet isn’t there. I have noticed that a year on I can definitely eat more than a year ago but my level of restriction differs on a day to day basis.”

5. She Embraces Her Body

Hayes is known for being a body-positive activist, and shares posts on social media about self-love and acceptance. In one post, Hayes posed in a bikini, and encouraged her followers to embrace their bodies for what they are, and not to worry about a “bikini body.” She writes, “After years of hating my body for being too big, it’s now small enough that my skin looks saggy and baggy. I have four boobs because my implants are in one place and my actual skin and breast tissue are in another. I have stretch marks on practically every area of my body, cellulite is my constant companion no matter how big or small I may be at any given time. I didn’t love the look of my body then and I don’t love the look of my body now, but I DO love taking care of my body and the confidence that comes with being healthy. I’m never going to look like the airbrushed images of people online, but does that mean I don’t have a bikini body? No. So I wanted to share my tips with you guys on how to get a “bikini body”: 1. Get a body. 2. Put a bikini on it Voila! You have yourself a bikini body.”
