Liam Hemsworth’s model girlfriend Gabriella Brooks flaunts her bikini body at the beach in Byron Bay

Liam Hemsworth’s new girlfriend Gabriella Brooks made the most of a visit to Byron Bay on Tuesday.

The 23-year-old model seemed determined to soak up the last rays of summer with a solo trip to a local beach.

Gabriella is currently visiting Byron Bay with Liam, 30, whose big brother Chris Hemsworth, 36, resides in the coastal New South Wales town with his family.

The stunner flaunted her beach body in a pair of red and yellow striped bikini bottoms, which she teamed with a yellow bikini top.

Gabriella arrived at the beach wearing a pair of pale blue denim shorts and dark sunglasses.

She held her phone in one hand and was seen listening to music as she walked along the sand. 

After removing her shorts, Gabriella sat on the sand for a while, contemplating the ocean, before finally braving the water.  

Sticking to the shoreline, she waded through the breaking waves, running her hands through her wet hair.

A seemingly chilly Gabriella later made her way back along to the sand to where she’d left her belongings.

As she walked along the beach, Gabriella took a moment to check that her top was still in place.

She then flipped her head upside down and proceeded to tie her long dark blonde hair up in a topknot with a yellow scrunchie.

Collecting her shorts in one hand, Gabriella then left the beach, looking deep in thought as she walked.  

Liam and Gabriella were first spotted having lunch with his parents, Craig and Leonie, in Byron Bay in mid-December. 

And more than three months into their relationship, they continue to go from strength to strength, according to a report by Us Weekly on Monday.  

‘He feels more at home with Gabriella than he did with Miley [Cyrus] and feels like he can be his complete self without any drama,’ a source told the publication.

They added: ‘Gabriella helped Liam boost his confidence and played an encouraging role in his life after his split with Miley.

‘They are very happy together and it’s comfortable and easy.’   

According to a report by People back in January, Liam’s relationship with Gabriella was ‘serious’ from early on.

‘They have spent a lot of time in Australia together,’ said a source. ‘Gabriella has met Liam’s siblings and his parents.’   

The couple reportedly share many of the same interests, and Liam has apparently ‘been in a great mood’ since hooking up with the model at the end of last year.

It’s the second relationship for Liam since he split from his wife, Miley Cyrus, in August last year, after less than eight months of marriage.

In October, he stepped out with Australian actress Maddison Brown, 22, in New York, but their relationship proved to be short-lived.

According to a recent by Us Weekly in December, the Isn’t It Romantic star is ‘happy to be moving on’ following his turbulent split from Miley, 27.

‘Liam feels comfortable with Gabriella. His family approves of her and really likes her, which is very important to him,’ a source told the publication at the time.
