Samie, 25, who The Sun revealed had split with Made In Chelsea star Sam Thompson last week, looked sensational as she modelled her two-piece while perched on a chair just a day after posing on-board a boat.
This time around, back on solid ground, she pulled on a straw hat to protect herself from the beating sunshine and accessorised with a chunky blue choker.
She kept her make-up natural, with her brunette locks brushing over her shoulders in wispy waves as she took her snaps from different angles.
Later in the evening, Samie switched to a stunning floor-length dress which she captured in a gallery on her Instagram grid.
Alongside the images she wrote: "Lady in red."
PARTING WAYS
Her trip comes just days after Sam, 32, and Samie called time on their short-lived relationship.
Sam was first pictured snogging Samie and holding her face as they smooched outside Olivia Attwood's 34th birthday bash.
They were also snapped walking arm in arm afterwards and he tenderly placed a hand on her waist.
While the pair didn't share their relationship on social media, Sam did praise Samie on his podcast, Staying Relevant with pal Pete Wicks.
Grilled by his best mate, he was relatively tight-lipped but said: "What I will say though, really awesome chick. You met her that night. Really, really lovely. Super down to earth, super nice, beautiful, obviously."
Sam Thompson and Samie Elishi SPLIT after just two months of dating
Samie, meanwhile, opened up about the romance last month during an appearance on the We Talk To The Dead podcast.
Last week, The Sun exclusively revealed the pair had decided to go their separate ways weeks after first being spotted together on a cosy date.
A source close to the former couple said: "It was a mutual thing and there is no bad blood between them.
"They both just have really busy schedules, particularly Sam who has been non-stop recently, and it was really hard to make it work. They're still good mates.
"It's a shame but sometimes things just don't work out."
Hints of trouble between the pair were first raised after Sam was cagey when quizzed about Samie while promoting his Soccer Aid challenge for Unicef earlier this month.
Asked if she would be there to support him, Sam told MailOnline: "I feel like… this is so much more than who I'm dating or hooking up with.
"And I feel like it would take away from what it is going on. You know what I mean?"
Sam began dating Samie after splitting with Zara McDermott late last year.

Reason why you should never book a hotel or holiday on you laptop revealed
Plus, we reveal more holiday hacks to help you save cash this summer GOOD TRIP TIP Reason why you should never book a hotel or holiday on you laptop revealed Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) EXPERTS have revealed the reason why you should never book a hotel or holiday on your laptop. With summer upon us, many will be scouring the likes of and Expedia for a last-minute getaway. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 We share a hack which can help you save on you next holiday booking Credit: Getty But if you are thinking of booking a holiday on your laptop, you might want to think twice. That is because you could end up paying more than customers who book the same deal via their smart phone. Hotel and holiday groups often have special deals for mobile and app users to help drive traffic to their websites. Sarah Coles, head of personal finance at Hargreaves Lansdown, said it is the firms' business to "persuade you to download the app." "They can collect more of your data and target you more effectively to persuade you to book again." Mobile only pricing is also used as a marketing tool to help drive more sales. Tom Church, co-founder of discount code platform found a £16 price difference for the same hotel found on He said: "A hotel in Granada, the Pension Venecia Gomerez, was £163 per night on the computer, but on the mobile app it was £147 per night, £16 cheaper." Research by The Sun also found the booking website was offering mobile customers a £112 discount on a hotel in Benidorm if they booked via the app. The Hotel Flats Friends Mar Blau costs £412 on the website but £300 if you secure the deal on your phone. My dream pool was £40,000 so I DIYd my own 18ft version in February all for this summer heatwave - it's saved me £37,000 The same goes for Expedia, with mobile users getting a £150 discount on a stay at the Hotel Ronda House in Barcelona. It is worth noting that prices may vary depending on what time of year you booking your holiday. Martyn James, consumer expert, said: "It might seem illogical and strange, but booking using a phone app can get you a big discount. "Regardless, always check the app before you book - but make sure you look at the hotel's website or app direct too, in case they have even better rates." MORE HOLIDAY HACKS If you are planning a trip abroad this summer, it is important to be clued up so you don't risk loosing cash. For example, customers should avoid exchanging money at the airport as you face paying higher fees. Money exchange hubs at the airport tend to a captive market, so firms can charge a higher premium for using the service. Kara Gammell, personal finance expert at MoneySuperMarket, previously told The Sun: "Don't wait to buy your travel money at the airport as you will pay a premium. "And never pay for your currency with a credit card as paying on plastic means you'll be charged a 'cash advance fee." This fee is charged on ATM withdrawals but also on transactions such as online gambling and buying foreign currency. You should also be aware that banks tend to charge customers a fee for using their debit or credit card abroad. NatWest charges customers a 2.75% fee for spending your debit card abroad. But plenty of banks, such as Monzo, do not charge for this service.

Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 3 Tulisa has pulled out of a Pride event after her famous dad's tragic death Credit: 3 The venue shared an update on their official social media page Credit: Twitter 3 Plato Kontostavlos was a keyboard player, who was known as Steve Credit: Instagram He was well loved within the music scene during the 1970s, as part of the blues band Mungo Jerry. And today it has been announced that Tulisa will be taking a step back from her work commitments to grieve the huge loss. The singer was set to perform at The Grand Clapham to celebrate Pride on Saturday - but understandably won't be taking part now. The venue told fans on their official X account, writing: "Pride update. We are sorry to announce that due to a family bereavement, Tulisa will understandably no longer be joining us for our Pride After Party on Saturday." They added: "We are sending Tulisa & her family all of our love. We'll be announce a new special guest later today, keep an eye out!" On Tuesday, Tulisa took to her Instagram page to post an emotional tribute. She shared a childhood image showing her snuggling with her dad and the words: "Love you pops, rest in peace. "Forever my father's daughter." Heartbroken rapper Dappy, who was in N-Dubz with his cousin Tulisa, also shared the sad news as he posted a video of himself with his uncle, alongside a white dove. I'm A Celeb star Tulisa commented on the post with a broken heart emoji and Dappy replied: 'I'm so sorry T.' N-Dubz star Dappy posts video with Tulisa's dad - his uncle Plato Speaking last year about her father, she said on Paul Brunson's podcast We Need To Talk: 'Me and my dad's relationship has not been a conventional one. "I would say me and my dad now we're just more friends that kind of have an understanding of one another." Plato's band Mungo Jerry gained massive success after landing the Number 1 hit In The Summertime in 1970. Other hits from the band include Lady Rose and Alright, Alright, Alright. Plato played the keyboard alongside his brother Byron - who is Tulisa's uncle and Dappy's father - who was on bass guitar. Tragically Byron died in the early days of N-Dubz in 2007. The pair were reportedly in the band during its early days. Speaking about her dad's influence on her career, Tulisa said: "My dad had a little studio in Dollis Hill and he used to bring me there sometimes when he was working. "He put me on the mic at the age of five. I was singing Little Mermaid. "I just knew there was nothing else I felt passionate about." The star has told in the past how her dad left her mum, Anne Byrne, when she was nine years old. Tulisa became her mum's primary carer at the tender age of 11.

Rod Stewart's 'hilarious blunder' at Glastonbury that fans failed to spot
Sir Rod Stewart took to the stage in the legends slot on the Pyramid Stage on the last day of Glastonbury, but many fans failed to spot the "hilarious" blunder he experienced Glastonbury Festival goers and Sir Rod Stewart fans have been left in stitches after spotting a "hilarious" gaffe the singer made during his performance, which has only just come to light. The amusing incident was highlighted by comedian Harry Hill, who took to Instagram to share a clip of Sir Rod's on-stage antics. The footage has since gone viral, with many finding humour in the cheeky "blunder" that occurred during Sir Rod's set. In a fit of giggles while watching Glastonbury Festival, Harry captioned the post: "I think my Glasto highlight has been Sir Rod blowing his nose." Accompanying the video, Harry poked fun at the 80-year-old rock legend for seemingly fishing out a handkerchief before nonchalantly blowing his nose in full view of the audience. Prior to the humorous episode, Sir Rod can be seen rummaging in his pocket for the tissue before heading over to the side of the stage to get one. The post has racked up over 15,000 likes and sparked a flurry of comments from amused viewers. One user simply stated: "Hilarious." Another chimed in with: "TV highlight of the week." A witty third remarked: "Do you think I'm snotty?" Others praised the star's showmanship, with one saying: "He was brill. Loved him going off stage for a cuppa. Good on him. True entertainer." Sir Rod graced the Pyramid Stage for the legends slot on the final day of the Worthy Farm festival. Accompanied by back-up vocalists and his band, the singer delighted fans with renditions of his beloved classics. Ahead of his much-anticipated Glastonbury performance, Sir Rod encountered a string of challenges. He was forced to cancel a handful of US gigs in early June as he battled the flu before the festival. He has previously revealed his intention to cease "large-scale world tours" after 2025, favouring more personal venues instead. Yet, as he took the stage at Glastonbury, the crowd's reaction suggested he still possesses the flair for an electrifying performance. On social media platform X, one admirer posted: "Massive crowd for Rod fair play." Another chimed in with: "Bigger turnout for Rod than Neil Young last night." A third commented: "All those eyes on Rod. He looks fabulous for his age." Another fan expressed: "He deserves that crowd after all these years." The Maggie May crooner stepped into the legendary tea-time slot at the prestigious festival, following in the footsteps of icons like James Brown, Diana Ross and Shania Twain. In anticipation of the event, Sir Rod shared his excitement with Radio Times: "I'm really looking forward to it, and it is a different gig. It's like when you're playing a cup final you're trying to treat it like another game. "But, of course, it's not. It's special. It'll be glamorous, it'll be sexy. And we've got a little orchestra coming on to play with us. And we may have some bagpipes." Fans were beside themselves with excitement on Sunday when the artist was accompanied onstage by his former Faces bandmate Ronnie Wood.
