Katie Waissel shows off her taut figure in an intricate black cut-out bikini

X Factor star Katie Waissel flaunted her trim physique in a black two-piece on Sunday, as she took a break from shooting fitness content for her upcoming website in sunny Rhodes. 

The singer, 34, proved there’s no rest for the wicked, getting straight back to work two days after Christmas, as she preps to launch the site in 2021.

Having famously transformed her own figure, she showed off the results of her hard work in a tiny bikini featuring a cut-out detailing.

She wore a sun hat for the look, her chocolate locks loosely falling from it, her complexion made up with natural tones.

Katie has been shooting for her fitness bootcamp website The Shed.

Last month Katie proudly documented her weight loss journey and fitness overhaul, sharing six incredible progress snaps on Instagram. 

She changed her life after the birth of her son Hudson, now two, and in her set of snaps she revealed the full extent of her journey.

Katie uses her Instagram account to keep fans up to date with her health and fitness regime and the latest snaps truly showed how far she has come.  

She shared a caption reading: ‘T R A N S F O R M A T I O N – 2 years weight loss / strength gain post partum transformation and what a journey!…

‘A lifestyle change has no expiration date! Constantly taking each new day as a brand new opportunity to reset and using small attainable nutrition hacks and a realistic training schedule here I am two years post natal!…

‘Now a Perinatal and Women’s Fitness Specialist alongside Nutrition Coach, I am able to share my go to’s not only from first hand experience, but as a well respected fitness professional!…

‘Nothing brings me greater joy becoming a part of your next chapter, if you have any questions I’d be more than happy to answer so feel free to get in touch!’

Katie, who has two failed marriages and is no longer with the father of her son Hudson, said last month that her son is the only love in her life now and she’s in no rush to start dating anyone anytime soon. 

Talking to The Sun, she said: ‘Hudson is my only love now. Not because I am bitter or stubborn or not open to meeting someone new. I just want to make sure that I am in a good place before I get into a relationship.’ 

Katie said her relationship with Hudson’s father, personal trainer, Andy Speer, 36, broke down when she was eight months pregnant and so she moved from the US back to the UK.  

She said: ‘The baby wasn’t planned but it was a ­beautiful moment. However, I think the bigger I got, reality kicked in for Andy, so he left me when I was eight months pregnant. I guess his anxieties got the better of him.’
