Earlier this month, Chantelle revealed she wants to shed the pounds as she shared a throwback bikini snap.

The model looked fabulous as she posed in a navy two-piece in the shower and admitted: ‘I can’t wait to look like this again’.

Captioning the snap, the TV star penned: ‘I signed up to the gym today, I start on Monday, I can’t wait to look like this again. 

‘(Can you believe I actually thought I was fat and unattractive in this pic) I’m excited to train with my love @strutt.michael.’

The mother-of-one previously revealed she was ‘done’ with people thinking she was pregnant.  

Alongside another throwback bikini image, Chantelle said: ‘5 year throwback!! I have 3 stone ‘lockdown weight’ to lose! I’m kinda done with all the ‘oh my god you’re pregnant’ comments! 

‘I have slim limbs and all of my weight goes to my tummy so I understand the comments but I’m going to do this! Who’s with me? 

‘I hate working out alone as it gives me zero motivation and it’s so easy to give up and go home or sit on the sofa or not do it at all!! Who’s up for a live on instagram once per week? Picked at random, but you must keep me going!?!?!!!’
