Ferne McCann breastfeeds two-year-old daughter Finty in a green bikini on family getaway to Greece after admitting she 'struggles to say no'
Ferne McCann was seen breastfeeding her two-year-old daughter Finty as she shared snaps from a family getaway to Greece. The former TOWIE star, 34, has been enjoying a trip to the Sani Resort in Halkidiki with her fiancé Lorrie Haines, and her two children. Taking to Instagram on Friday, Ferne shared a carousel of pictures from the family trip, featuring one with her relaxing on a basket chair outside wearing a khaki ruched bikini. While sat on the chair, Ferne was seen breastfeeding her daughter Finty, who turned two last week. 'Heart full of happiness….Belly full of taramasolata & spicy margs,' she captioned the snaps. It comes after Ferne revealed in April that she is 'struggling to say no' to breastfeeding Finty in an Instagram Q&A. On her trip to Greece, Ferne was joined by her close friend Danielle Armstrong, along with her partner Tommy Edney and their children. In one snap Ferne was again seen in her green bikini as she posed for pictures, pairing the two-piece with a cream and white striped shirt and patterned head scarf. While in another, she and Danielle cosied up together on a garden sofa with Ferne wearing a black two-piece and sarong. Responding to one question which asked about if she had tried to stop breastfeeding her youngest past the age of one. She responded: 'Finty breastfed on demand whilst we were away. 'I guess for an easier life I just gave it to her. There's so many perks of continuing with breastfeeding past 1 especially whilst we were traveling. 'But now that means she really wants it all the time & I struggle to say no. I haven't tried to stop BF yet. 'I think it will be really difficult when we eventually do end our BF journey.' In one snap Ferne was again seen in her green bikini as she posed for pictures, pairing the two-piece with a cream and white striped shirt and patterned head scarf Ferne sparked controversy among her fans as she continues to 'normalise' breastfeeding an older child. The NHS recommends exclusive breastfeeding (breast milk only) for the first six months of a baby's life. It then recommends following with continued breastfeeding alongside solid foods for up to 2 years or longer, where possible. 'Yes, she's 21 months. And yes, we're "still" breastfeeding', she wrote across the video. She captioned her post: 'I get asked all the time "Are you STILL breastfeeding?" In April, Ferne said she is 'struggling to say no' to breastfeeding daughter Finty in an Instagram Q&A 'To me it feels like the most natural thing in the world. And I wonder when the question changed from "are you breastfeeding?" To "are you still breastfeeding?" 'There's so much misinformation about how long breastfeeding is "appropriate". Here's what most people don't realise… 'WHO recommends breastfeeding at least until 2. It boosts immunity and connection, still. You're not "spoiling" them. You're nurturing them.

Ferne McCann turns heads in a plunging backless dress as she shares stunning sunset snaps during her Greek getaway
Ferne McCann looked sensational in a plunging backless crochet beach dress as she shared a series of sunset snaps on Instagram on Tuesday. The former TOWIE star, 34, is currently enjoying a getaway in Greece with her fiancé Lorrie Haines, and her two children. Ferne has been joined by her close friend Danielle Armstrong, along with her partner Tommy Edney and their children. In the snaps, Ferne cut a toned figure as she set temperatures soaring in the stunning white ensemble which also featured a racy thigh high slit. She added a statement gold plunge necklace and added inches to her frame with brown kitten heels. The reality star also shared a selfie with Danielle and some of the delicious food they indulged in during the evening. Fearne captioned the snaps: 'Summers spent here' It comes after the star showed off her incredible figure in a taupe bikini in a new video on Monday as she admitted she's often been hesitant to post pictures of herself. She wowed in the skimpy Grace Jacobs two-piece before slipping into a patterned co-ord, posing this way and that as she showcased her stylish summer look. And amid her apparent confidence, Ferne urged her followers to 'stop doom scrolling', 'stop doubting' themselves and 'post the damn picture' in a defiant, inspiring message. The mother-of-two looked in great spirits as she twirled around in the clip, but confessed in her caption that she'd regularly edit her images 'a million times' before finding the courage to post it. Her motivational message read: 'This is your sign to POST. 'Not when your body looks perfect. Not when the lighting is just right. Not when the algorithm is ''doing better.'' Not when you've edited it for the 5th time. Not when you've sat on it for 3 months and it ends up lost in your camera roll. 'There are so many moments I've waited, overthought a post, edited it a million times. Sometimes you've just got to think f**k it*…. free the drafts and post.' The reality star also shared a selfie with her Danielle Armstrong, after jetting away with her and her family Ferne's post was met with comments of support from her fans and showbiz pals, including Vicky Pattison - who was inspired to post her own swimwear snaps. It comes after Ferne showcased her sensational figure in a purple cut-out bikini back in May as she gave fans a behind-the-scenes look at what she typically eats in a day. The TV personality flaunted her incredibly toned physique in the stylish two-piece, featuring a striking cut-out top and high-rise bottoms, as she shared her healthy routine with her Instagram followers. The clip kicked off with Ferne drinking a zesty juice shot in her pyjamas to get her day started with a burst of energy, before breaking into a cheeky dance in her kitchen. Next up, she raided her fridge to whip up what appeared to be a strawberry protein shake, keeping things fresh and fruity. For lunch, the former TOWIE star fried up some juicy harissa prawns and chickpeas before assembling a vibrant salad bowl packed with lettuce, red onion, avocado, fruit and crumbled feta – all topped off with a generous squeeze of lemon. Switching up her look, Ferne slipped into a skimpy red activewear set that showed off her washboard abs as she tucked into her colourful lunch. Later, she got to work on her evening meal - a Greek-style lamb and spanakopita - inspired filo pie - which she dubbed 'so tasty and perfect for sharing,' before kindly revealing the full recipe for fans to try at home. Looking utterly content, Ferne ended her day on a sweet note with a bar of chocolate before cooling off with a refreshing evening drink. Ferne has been candid about her weight loss journey and revealed last year she shed 2.5 stone after overhauling her lifestyle with a focus on nutrition and high-intensity interval training. Sharing her transformation on Instagram, Ferne posed in black lingerie and told fans: 'Here are my most recent result pictures and OMG I'm so proud of these and I feel amazing! 'What I've been doing is focusing 80% on my nutrition with my simple nutrition plan. '20% exercise from working out 2-3 times per week and 100% support and motivation from my smaller accountability coaching groups. 'These accountability groups have been a game changer for me and we are seeing the most insane results across the board.

Danielle Armstrong flaunts incredible figure in plunging bikini after revealing the secrets to her 3.5 stone weight loss
Danielle Armstrong took to Instagram on Friday to show off her incredible figure in a floral bikini. The TOWIE star, 36, wowed in the pink and white two-piece which she paired with a matching sarong. The fitness and health influencer, who shares two daughters, Orla, five, and Una, two, with her husband Tom Edney, completed the look by accessorising with a straw hat and sunglasses. She simply captioned the eye-popping post 'Unn Grrr…' with a heart-eye emoji, revealing that the hat and bikini are from the designer Boutique Bonita. Fans of the reality star can emulate her outfit for a relatively budget-friendly £50 for a fedora hat and an additional £45 for the Ola bikini and matching skirt. Danielle prides herself on 'helping others to become the best version of themselves' and frequently shares her fashion and wellness tips online after dropping a whopping 3.5 stone last year. Fans and celebrity friends were quick to praise Danielle's body in the bikini. Her fellow TOWIE star Chloe Sims simply responded with fire emoji while Love Island alumini Cara Delahoyde-Massey added: 'Go on girl!' 'You look amazing,' praised a fan. Danielle emphasised on Instagram that, unlike many other famous faces, she achieved her toned body without the help of weight loss injections. She wrote: 'In a world that it seems injecting is the only solution for weight loss these days. This is your sign to tell you there is another way. 'If you're someone who wants to make 2025 the year you prioritise your health and get results without taking any risks or quick fixes to do so, but you're not a big gym lover or haven't got time to meal prep and live on chicken and broccoli then this is your sign to message me NOW.' She later explained that the secrets to her trim body are simply eating and exercising well. Danielle said: '80% of what we look like is down to what we eat, you need to find a nutrition plan that will allow you to be in a calorie deficit that doesn't make you feel like your on a diet.' Fans and celebrity friends were quick to praise Danielle's body in the bikini, with her fellow TOWIE star Chloe Sims simply responded with fire emoji She later explained that the secrets to her trim body are simply eating and exercising well - and that she aims to get a minimum of 10K steps a day Danielle added: 'DIETS DO NOT WORK, they are a quick fix. You need something to follow that is realistic to your lifestyle and you actually enjoy. 'I also stop eating after 8pm which makes a huge difference to your results. Water is key to getting results, I aim for 2.5/3L of water every day. 'I like to track my steps I get quite competitive with myself on the Apple Watch closing my circles. 'I aim for 10K steps minimum per day. Trust me even if you cant get to the gym getting your steps in is still good. 'Supplements have become a big part of my life now, I have a range of pills I take throughout the day which helps my body absorb the good nutrients from foods and smoothies I have. I also have a Pre - Probiotic that I take to keep my gut working its best that helps with weight management / bloating and immune health. 'Lastly sleep and resting is just as important as all the above. Poor sleep can lower your metabolism, making it harder to burn calories. So getting to bed by 10pm and up at 6am [sic].' The influencer rose to fame on The Only Way Is Essex way back in 2013 but later admitted that she had no intention of being in the public eye. Danielle said on Vicky Pattison's The Secret To podcast: 'I never wanted to be famous or in the industry. I was dating Lockie at the time, when I had my fashion job. 'I was a buyer for Topshop and when he got asked to go on that show, I was talking to him at the time so then I got asked. That just naturally happened.'

Danielle Armstrong's stunning holiday co-ord is still available for under £50
Former TOWIE star Danielle Armstrong has found the perfect floral co-ord to take on your next getaway, and you can still shop her exact look for under £50 If you're looking for something easy and breezy to take on holiday, a co-ord is always a great choice. Not only do you have an instant outfit ready to go, but you can easily mix and match each piece with other things, giving you plenty of different looks without taking up too much room in your suitcase. One we spotted recently was worn by Danielle Armstrong whilst she was on holiday, with the former TOWIE star showing off the outfit on her newly-launched LTK page. Her exact look – H&M's floral co-ord – has already been her best-selling look from her outfits so far, making it a definite must have. The H&M co-ord includes the £19.99 Tie-Strap Smocked Top and the £27.99 Frill-Trimmed Maxi Skirt, meaning you only need to spend £47.98 to copy Danielle's look. Despite its affordable price tag, the full set is still in stock in all sizes, except the XS size in the skirt. Although Danielle opted for the black floral print version, you can also get the set in a white and pink floral print too, which is perfect if you want a softer, more romantic look. The top has a shirred stretchy design that's comfortable and supportive without being too tight (because who wants tight, clingy fits in the heat?) and has a flattering slim fit. Meanwhile the skirt has a covered elasticated waistband that keeps it streamlined and sleek whilst still giving you plenty of stretch. It has a maxi length with an A-line silhouette that flows nicely, giving you plenty of movement and keeping it breezy and comfortable. Whilst there's no denying that the co-ord looks great together, you can so easily pair it with plenty of other pieces in your wardrobe (or your suitcase). The Tie-Strap Smocked Top for example would work with denim shorts, some wide leg linen trousers or even a pair of jeans on cooler days, whilst the Frill-Trimmed Maxi Skirt works beautifully with everything from an oversized T-shirt to a crisp white shirt, or simply thrown on over a bikini for around the pool. The H&M co-ord is made from Enzing Ecovero viscose which keeps it lightweight, but if you want something more natural River Island's Yellow Sleeveless Floral Cami Top (£29) and the matching Yellow Floral Maxi Skirt (£36) are both made from 100% cotton. This means it's breathable and sweat-wicking, keeping you cool and comfortable in the heat. If you want something bolder, New Look's Red Shell Print Poplin Tiered Midi Skirt (£32.99) and the co-ordinating Red Abstract Print Tie Strap Cropped Top (£23.99) are ideal. The bold red colour makes a statement, and they can dress it up and down depending on the occasion. However if you want to take a leaf out of Daniell's style book, you can shop the Tie-Strap Smocked Top and the Frill-Trimmed Maxi Skirt at H&M now.
