Yellowjackets' Ella Purnell in Bathing Suit is Back From Barbados

Ella Purnell is channeling Pamela Anderson’s Baywatch look! The star, whose show Yellowjackets aired its season finale on Sunday (she plays Jackie, the Queen Bee of the high school), showed off her fabulous figure in a red swimsuit on Instagram this week, captioning it “went to Barbados and all I got was this stupid tan.” How does the 25-year-old prioritize health and wellness? Read on to see 5 ways Ella Purnell takes care of herself both mentally and physically 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 Avoids Seafood

Purnell doesn’t eat anything from under the sea, and when she was filming the show Sweetbitter, it was sort of a problem. “I have a stomach condition where I can’t eat certain foods, which is really convenient when you get cast as a lead in a food show,” she told Decider. “There was one oyster scene that was the most important scene in the whole season. They’re like, ‘You have to eat an oyster.’ I was like ‘If I eat an oyster, I’m taking two weeks off work because I will be so sick.'”

2. She Hikes

The young actress seems to enjoy outdoor activities, like hitting the beach and hiking. She recently shared a photo from one of her adventures, enjoying a hike in Canada where Yellowjackets was filmed

3. She Roller Skates

Purnell also loves to roller skate and fills her Instagram feeds with photos and videos on herself rolling around. “A chilled morning skate with the eagles in the mountains of Vancouver Island // lately I’ve been focusing on flow; just getting smoother with those transitions and filler moves like disco spins and dips. Still struggling to balance with that heal toe spin at the end but getting better at coming out of them without landing on my ass!” she captioned a recent video.

4. She Has Battled Anxiety and Depression

“I have anxiety and have had depression in the past,” she told the Evening Standard. “When I was 15 or 16 I had a bad experience at school — some issues with other classmates and somebody I was seeing, we don’t need to go into it. I started self-harming and did that for a long time until my mum caught me and I started to learn about it [mental health].” Ella admits she misunderstood depression up until that point. “Self-harm is not about attention — I hid [my scars] for six months, wore long T-shirts, covered them up with make-up. It’s about punishing yourself, for people who dislike themselves or suffer from insecurity or self-doubt,” she continued. "I still have the scars and it’s something that I did that I will always regret: it hurt a lot of people around me and it’s on my body forever.”

5. She Reads

Ella is a big reader. “With a good book,” she responded when asked by Conde Nast Traveler how she relaxes. “I’m reading Raven Black by Ann Cleeves right now, and I think I just predicted the ending. Although I do quite often predict them wrong, so I’ll keep reading.’

Ella can’t eat seafood, which is problematic when it comes to her career. “I have a stomach condition where I can’t eat certain foods, which is really convenient when you get cast as a lead in a food show,” she told Decider. “There was one oyster scene that was the most important scene in the whole season. They’re like, ‘You have to eat an oyster.’ I was like ‘If I eat an oyster, I’m taking two weeks off work because I will be so sick.'”

2. She Goes on Hikes

While Ella hasn’t revealed any details about her approach to exercise, she can often be found engaging in outdoor activities. Hiking in the mountains, biking, and walking on the beach are a few of her favorite activities.

3. She Likes to Roller Skate

Purnell is also a big fan of roller skating. “A chilled morning skate with the eagles in the mountains of Vancouver Island // lately I’ve been focusing on flow; just getting smoother with those transitions and filler moves like disco spins and dips. Still struggling to balance with that heal toe spin at the end but getting better at coming out of them without landing on my ass!” she captioned a recent video of herself skating around.

4. She Treats Her Anxiety and Depression

Ella keeps herself mentally healthy by treating her anxiety and depression. “I have anxiety and have had depression in the past,” she told the Evening Standard. “When I was 15 or 16 I had a bad experience at school — some issues with other classmates and somebody I was seeing, we don’t need to go into it. I started self-harming and did that for a long time until my mum caught me and I started to learn about it [mental health].” She hopes that by discussing her experiences, it will help people understand issues surrounding self-harm. “Self-harm is not about attention — I hid [my scars] for six months, wore long T-shirts, covered them up with make-up. It’s about punishing yourself, for people who dislike themselves or suffer from insecurity or self-doubt,” she continued. "I still have the scars and it’s something that I did that I will always regret: it hurt a lot of people around me and it’s on my body forever.”

5. She Reads

One way that Ella promotes self-care is by reading. “With a good book,” she responded when asked by Conde Nast Traveler about her go-to chill out activity. “I’m reading Raven Black by Ann Cleeves right now, and I think I just predicted the ending. Although I do quite often predict them wrong, so I’ll keep reading.’

Love Island's Ella Barnes recently shared a stunning beach snapshot, radiating confidence in a swimsuit. Beyond the photo's allure, Barnes has offered insights into her lifestyle. Hydration takes the spotlight as she emphasizes its importance, backed by CDC guidelines. Coffee becomes more than a morning ritual, with Johns Hopkins research suggesting liver benefits for enthusiasts. Candidly recalling moments from her reality TV stint, Barnes reveals her rule-breaking tendencies. Amid fame's ups and downs, she openly discusses the end of her “showmance” with Mitchel Taylor. Read on to see how her journey reflects a holistic approach to well-being.

1. She Hydrates

“Getting enough water every day is important for your health. Drinking water can prevent dehydration, a condition that can cause unclear thinking, result in mood change, cause your body to overheat, and lead to constipation and kidney stones,” says the CDC, which offers these tips for drinking more:

• “Carry a water bottle with you and refill it throughout the day.
• Freeze some freezer-safe water bottles. Take one with you for ice-cold water all day long.
• Choose water over sugary drinks.
• Opt for water when eating out. You’ll save money and reduce calories.
• Serve water during meals.
• Add a wedge of lime or lemon to your water. This can help improve the taste.”

2. She Drinks Coffee

“Both regular and decaf coffee seem to have a protective effect on your liver. Research shows that coffee drinkers are more likely to have liver enzyme levels within a healthy range than people who don’t drink coffee,” says Johns Hopkins. “One in 23 women develop colon cancer. But researchers found that coffee drinkers — decaf or regular — were 26 percent less likely to develop colorectal cancer.”

3. She Knows When to Break the Rules

“You would get really told off if there was two girls in the bathroom at one time… There was only, like, a couple of plugs in the dressing room but there was a massive extension lead in the off-camera bathroom, which is upstairs, and just us girls used it,” she told Closer. “And Whitney would be in there using the hot comb for her wigs for ages and if one of us girls needed to go to the toilet or anything like that, we would just go in. But they could hear us talking, so yeah, you’d would get really told off. They’d be like, ‘Girls, not two of you in the bathroom at one time!’ So yeah, that would happen all the time.”

4. Her Journey With Mitch Has Come to an End

Mitchel Taylor and Barnes had a “showmance” that is now over. “Just wanted to come on here and keep you all updated, as you deserve to know as I wouldn’t be where I am without you,” she shared this week. “Unfortunately, myself and Mitch have decided to end our relationship. I really wanted things to work out and I’m gutted that our journey has come to an end.”

5. She Enjoys Sunshine

“When the numbers from nearly 46 million blood pressure readings were crunched, the researchers found exposure to UV sunlight was associated with lower systolic blood pressure (the first number in a blood pressure reading) regardless of the temperature. It's the first time a large study has shown that, said the lead author, Dr. Richard Weller,” reports the American Heart Association. Although more research is to be done, Weller told the AHA dermatologists "need to stop fixating on the harm UV can do and stand back and acknowledge the fact that there is a growing body of evidence showing that it also has benefits on health."

Evelyn Ellis is celebrating her love story in her swimsuit. The Married at First Sight star shows off her incredible body in a bathing suit while flaunting her romance with Duncan James in one of her latest social media posts. “It all led me to you,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Evelyn Ellis 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 Jet Skis

Evelyn loves being on the water. One of her favorite activities in jet skiing. In a “recent dump” she makes a splash in the water. According to Health Fitness Revolution, the average 150-pound rider will burn a surprising 238 calories during a half-hour ride. The sport is also great for cardiovascular endurance.

2. She Swims

Evelyn also enjoys swimming. “I should probably get travel insurance,” she captioned a photo of herself swimming with dolphins. Swimming is a good way to get regular aerobic physical activity, according to the CDC. Just two and a half hours per week of aerobic physical activity, such as swimming, bicycling, or running, can decrease the risk of chronic illnesses. In addition to the many physical benefits, there are multiple studies supporting the mental health benefits of swimming as well.

3. She Takes Baths

Evelyn regularly takes hot baths. “Always wanted to do this,” she captioned a post from a recent trip to Bali of herself soaking in flower petals. How can baths do your body and mind good? They have been linked to better sleep and even found helpful to minimize anxiety and depression. One recent study even found that they may even boast cardiovascular benefits.

4. She Walks Her Dog

Evelyn also walks her dog. “Hiii everyone this is noodle,” she captioned a post, introducing her canine companion. Going for a daily walk can be a game changer in terms of exercise, especially at a brisk speed. One study published in JAMA Internal Medicine found that walking at a brisk pace for about 30 minutes a day led to a reduced risk of heart disease, cancer, dementia and death, compared with walking a similar number of steps but at a slower pace.

5. She Skis

In the winter, Evelyn hits the slopes. “Bridget Jones goes to Aspen and nearly breaks her neck,’ she joked in a caption of a photo taken during a ski trip. Research has linked downhill skiing to a number of health benefits. In addition to promoting physical fitness, it may decrease risk of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. Studies have also found that the more frequently a person skis, prevalence of known hypercholesterolemia, systemic hypertension, diabetes, the frequency of mental stress and the occurrence of memory deficits declines.

1. She Swims

Brown loves to swim as a way to stay in shape. Even if it’s cold out, she’ll still go in the water. She posted this photo on Instagram of herself in an outdoor pool in the snow. She captioned the post, “The best feeling.” "Are you ready to take the plunge and try a new fitness activity? How about water exercise? Also known as aquatics, water exercise is one of the best non-impact fitness activities around and just about anybody can participate. Pregnant women, the elderly or overweight, individuals with arthritis or those recovering from an injury can all benefit from the wide variety of aquatics classes currently available," says ACE Fitness.

2. She Got In Shape For Love Island

Before making her debut on the show Love Island, Brown made sure to get in shape. She broke down her process to The Sun. “I hired a personal trainer for weight training, then would spend the rest sweating away on the treadmill,” she explained.

3. She’s Comfortable With Herself

Being in the public eye, Brown has had to deal with body shaming. However, she tells The Sun that she is confident in herself, despite all the comments. “What the shamers need to realize is that there's a difference between someone who is unhealthy and overweight, and someone who's just a normal size,” she said. “I'm perfectly fit and happy now — just as I was before Love Island.”

4. She Stays Humble

For Brown, humility is key. She tells Glamour that while she’s confident in herself, she still stays humble. “No one is a ten out of ten. Except maybe Beyoncé. Don’t go in there thinking you are the be all and end all."

5. She Values Her Friendships

While Brown made her debut on a dating show, she didn’t just go on there to find love. She tells Glamour that her friendships are just as important to her as her romantic relationships. "Friendships to me are just as important as relationships. I know it’s not a friendship show, it’s a love show. I’m nervous about how the girls will react.”
