Olivia Bowen in Bathing Suit Says “Mine Always”

Love Island power couple Olivia and Alex Bowen are currently on vacation in Spain. And they are spending a lot of quality time together, and enjoying the local activities.

Read on to see 5 ways Olivia Bowen 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 Surfs

Spending time in the pool isn’t the only aquatic physical activity Bowen enjoys doing. She also likes to ride the waves on her board, even if she isn’t the best at it. Bowen posted this series of beach photos on Instagram of herself and her husband surfing at the beach in North Devon. She humorously captioned the photo, “Fell off 100 times.” Surfing is not just a great way to workout, it is also a way to help motivate you to train harder. According to the Center For Surf Research, “Many surfers are more motivated to exercise outside of the water in order to surf in bigger conditions. Big wave surfers train constantly to be able to hold their breath and paddle long distances. Similarly, even the average surfer is more likely to stretch before and after a surf, which promotes muscle recovery and flexibility.”

2. She Horseback Rides

Bowen loves to go horseback riding as a way of staying in shape. She posted this reel on Instagram of herself riding really fast through a field. She captioned the reel, “What dreams are made of.” She also posted this selfie of herself with a horse, captioning it, “My half tonne soulmate.” Horseback riding can also have a positive impact on your mental health. “The term hippotherapy refers to how occupational therapy, physical therapy and speech-language pathology professionals use evidence-based practice and clinical reasoning in the purposeful manipulation of equine movement as a therapy tool to engage sensory, neuromotor and cognitive systems to promote functional outcomes,” says the American Hippotherapy Association.

3. She Spends Time Outside

One look at Bowen’s Instagram, and you will learn that she loves to spend time outside. The reality star has posted several photos of herself spending time in the great outdoors. Whether she’s taking her dogs for a walk in the field, enjoying time at the beach, or riding in a golf cart, Bowen gets plenty of Vitamin D with all the time she spends in the sunshine.

4. She Works Out Regularly

Bowen tells The Sun that she aims to work out as often as she can, even with her busy schedule. She says that her goal is to hit the gym at least three days a week. “I work out when I can but mainly three times a week,” she says. Bowen and her husband also love to work out together, which is not only a great couple’s activity, but a great way to stay motivated and remember to workout. They have shared some of their couple’s workouts with The Sun.

5. She Enjoys the Endorphin Rush

One of Bowen’s ways of staying motivated to exercise? Actually enjoying it. She tells The Sun that she actually likes working out, and likes the way it makes her feel. “When I work out I feel a lot better about myself and the release of endorphins gives me a happy energy that’s incomparable,” she says. “That gives me an extra boost of confidence, not only in my body but also my head space.” She’s right: “Physical activity may help bump up the production of your brain's feel-good neurotransmitters, called endorphins. Although this function is often referred to as a runner's high, any aerobic activity, such as a rousing game of tennis or a nature hike, can contribute to this same feeling,” says the Mayo Clinic.

She captioned the post, “Forever asking Bradley to stand in first so I can test the light >>> It’s a team effort.” How does she stay so fit?

I wouldn’t change anything and there’s nothing I am really that unhappy with.”

Attwood tells The Sun that she takes good care of herself. However, she also admits that she didn’t always do so.

Attwood is a lot more comfortable with herself. She says to The Sun that one of the ways she got to this point was when she stopped criticizing herself so much. “Ten years ago walking around in a bikini, I would be internally picking myself apart, whereas now I’m a lot more comfortable.”

4. She Calls Out Trolls

Attwood has a lot more confidence in herself. Which means, she doesn’t get affected by hateful social media trolls. In fact, she even called one of them out on Twitter. After someone called her “anorexic”, Attwood fired back, "What a ... disgusting thing to say. Anorexia is a disease, and that word should not be thrown around. Educate yourself, you vile human."

Attwood is not a fan of plastic surgery, and is promoting having a more natural look. She tells the DailyMail that she came to this conclusion after having a bad experience. “When I had the big" chest—"the first" chest augmentation—"that was the fashion.

“I think from being from a modeling background and doing the Grid Girls stuff, it was all, obviously you are held to like impeccably higher standards of like physical appearance and like the way you hold yourself and being tough and having a face on, doesn't matter if you are feeling a bit miserable, one day you've gotta come and you've gotta smile. And you've got to be entertaining, charismatic. And I think that definitely has helped me for this part of my life,” she told the Behind Closed Doors podcast.

2. Love Island was a “Therapeutic” Experience

“Love Island was kind of like a big wakeup call for me in quite a lot of ways….I realized that previous to that I'd always used all my relationships and the men in my life as a crutch. So I felt beautiful when they told me I was beautiful. I thought I was funny if they told me I was funny and I think what Love Island taught me is that I don't need someone else to tell me that, like, I just need to like myself and be confident in who I am and that's enough. And even though I was on, you know, on love island, you can say I was so unfiled and like I just was unapologetically myself for the first time I think in ages, in a weird way. Cuz you think being on a national TV, like it'd have the opposite effect, but weirdly like I just kind of in that Villa with no outside influence, like generally I had no one to kind of like guide me or tell me don't do that. Don't say that, you know, not having an ex you know, ex-boyfriend shush you or don't don't say that, it was quite like a therapeutic experience,” she told Behind Closed Doors.

3. She Loves the Outdoors

“I am 100% a summer girl, as I’m the coldest person that ever lived! Even on sunny days in England, when it gets to 25 degrees and everyone else strips off, I’ll still be wearing jeans. For that reason, spending last summer on Love Island was the absolute dream – it was always so lovely and warm!” she told Checklist.

4. This is Her Diet Advice

“Prosecco and white wine are always on my shopping list – especially Pinot Grigio! I’m also obsessed with drinking water, so my fridge is always stocked up with plenty of bottles of Evian, as well as lots of healthy staples like eggs, smoothies, spinach, smoked salmon, bagels and avocados. I tend to end up eating breakfast foods at all hours of the day – even for dinner,” she told Checklist.

5. She Has ADHD

Olivia has ADHD. “The primary features of ADHD include inattention and hyperactive-impulsive behavior. ADHD symptoms start before age 12, and in some children, they're noticeable as early as 3 years of age. ADHD symptoms can be mild, moderate or severe, and they may continue into adulthood,” says the Mayo Clinic. “ADHD occurs more often in males than in females, and behaviors can be different in boys and girls. For example, boys may be more hyperactive and girls may tend to be quietly inattentive.” “I myself fall into a kind of combined type,” Olivia has said on Loose Women. “It got brought up when I was a child for me fidgeting in school, finding it hard to concentrate, but because I was like mild-mannered and bright, it kind of got a bit of brush under the carpet. And it was only in my later life. I found myself in a quite severe battle with anxiety and depression. And I came under the care of a psychiatrist whose actual special field was ADHD in adults. It was just an actually strike of luck. And she just was speaking to me for an hour assessing me. And at the end of the hour, she said, has anyone ever spoken to you about having ADHD?”

1. She Takes Care Of Her Mental Health

Bowen opened up about her struggles with her mental health in an interview with OK! Magazine. She revealed that she struggles with anxiety, and wanted to speak out about it to help stop the stigma of mental health, and also revealed the ways she takes care of herself. “Make sure that you’re [speaking about it], and I always do lots of lists and notes, and things like that to help me sort of fight that anxiety. But yeah, you do have really heightened emotions. You just have to ride the wave.”

2. She Has Her Own Form Of Meditation

Bowen and her husband, Alex, talked about several different life and wellness topics in an interview with Heatworld.com. In the interview, Bowen talked about meditation, and she says that she has her own form of meditation. “When I go to the stables to see my horse, I’m so zen. It’s so weird, I’m so chilled. It’s like my happy place. It’s not necessarily trying things like meditation, for me it just doesn’t work and I really struggle. But finding my happy place, which is what meditation is about, I think that is the key.”

3. She Takes Care Of Her Skin

Bowen opened up about her skincare process to Heatworld.com. She says that she has a pretty extensive routine, which she puts a lot of thought into. “I do everything, I cleanse in the morning, I use my toner, I really go for it. If I’m feeling lazy, my favorite products are from Nivea, just because they’re so easy. They don’t have a strong smell and I hate fragranced creams because I feel like they irritate my skin. Nivea is really kind to your skin and so affordable and I’ve always used it.”

4. She Has A Favorite Podcast

Bowen tells Heatworld.com that listening to podcasts is a great way for her to manage her mental health and anxiety. She does have one go-to podcast that she likes to listen to often. “I love The Life-Changing Magic of Not Giving a" you-know-what, "by Sarah Knight and there’s a couple like that and it’s just about mind management and learning to just get over things. It’s been really great for me, because I can hold onto things. Especially for people who suffer with anxiety, it’s a great way of moving on from things.”

It can be difficult to stay healthy during the pandemic. Which is why, Bowen revealed on her Instagram story in 2020 that she wasn’t trying to lose weight. And as luck would have it, Bowen also revealed that this approach helped her lose weight and get into better shape. “I've lost 6lbs eating healthily, I still eat chocolate everyday lol and drink wine I ain't changing lol,” she wrote. “Feel so good and not intentionally trying to lose weight. Just feel tighter.”

1. She Was a Gymnast

Before becoming an actress, Olivia was a devoted gymnast. She described herself to StyleCaster as a “full-on Southern belle.” While living in a small town in Mississippi she dreamt of becoming an Olympic gymnast, spending 5 hours a night training at a gym.

2. She Struggles with Body Image Issues

Like many other girls, Olivia has dealt with overcoming body image issues. “I’ve struggled with figuring out exactly what my body type is and going back and forth between feeling too skinny or too thick or too this or too that,” she told StyleCaster. “Being a gymnast, I had a lot of issues with feeling too broad in my shoulders or too thick in my thighs. It’s heartbreaking that we have to feel this way, especially as women in a world where we already feel put down by so many others. I’ve been told by many producers, ‘You need to lose X amount of pounds if you’re going to be a part of this project’ or ‘You need to gain this amount of pounds if you want to be a part of this project.’ That really messes, not just your headspace, but your heart.”

3. She Is Competitive

Olivia was psyched when Disney asked if she wanted to participate in the challenge show TEYathalon. “I love to be challenged, and I am very competitive, sports-wise,” she told Girls Life. “The best element from the TRYathlon is doing something I have never done before and challenging muscles that I don't normally use.”

4. Her Favorite Workout Is Parkour

Olivia told Girls Life that she loves swimming, hiking, and tumbling with her friends. But her favorite workout? Parkour. “I love it,” she said. “It teaches you how to do all sorts of stunts, and it challenges me.”

5. She Has a Few Favorite Eats

Olivia revealed her guilty pleasure to She Knows. “Popcorn. I like Smart Food White Cheddar Popcorn, but I do just like plain movie theater popcorn too. [On set] I got everyone hooked on popcorn dipped in Nutella. It’s soooo good. But it is very messy,” she said. She also revealed that she has a favorite condiment. “I eat everything with ketchup. I smother everything with ketchup. I cannot eat a meal without ketchup. I carry ketchup in my purse.”
