Brookside and Celeb SAS legend Jennifer Ellison looks incredible as rarely-seen star, 40, hits the beach in Turkey
BROOKSIDE and Celeb SAS legend Jennifer Ellison looked incredible as she hit the beach in Turkey.
The 40-year-old recently escaped the miserable UK weather for some winter sun in the popular holiday hot spot.
Jennifer, who is best known for playing Emily Shadwick in Brookside, wowed in a multi-coloured animal print bikini while she topped up her tan at the beach.
The actress was seen locking lips with her husband Robbie Tickle while they sat on some loungers.
The star showed off her natural beauty with minimal make-up and let her blonde locks fall naturally on her shoulders.
The couple, who married in 2009, were also joined by their kids on the trip.
It comes after Jennifer teased an epic soap return after two decades off screens back in August.
The star played Emily Shadwick on Brookside from 1998 until 2003.
Talking about the show on Good Morning Britain, Jennifer said: “I get stopped in the street constantly and of all the things I’ve done, it’s Brookside that people always talk about.
“My kids are like ‘What’s Brookside?’ and I’m like ‘It’s a Liverpool Coronation Street!'”
“I think anyone who was involved in it… it holds such a special place in all our hearts, that I couldn’t say no. I’d feel like I was cheating all the people who’d given me the start in this industry.”
“So yeah, I’d love to see it come back, it would be amazing. And there’s so many people who would love to see it come back.”
Jennifer also took part in Celebrity SAS last year.
Months after she revealed the secrets behind her incredible 3st weight loss since the programme.
Speaking to Closer magazine about the experience, she said: “I lost a stone since doing it.
“I’ve since lost more because it really gave me a kick up the backside, because the gym is daunting to me.
“I was scared of the gym but then after SAS, I said if I could do that, I could do anything.”
Talking of her weight loss she added: “I’m down to 10 and a half stone now and I’m in the gym five times a week – doing a mix of cardio and weights.
“I feel great.”
