Amy Hart discusses overcoming her ‘insecurities’ as she shares bikini snaps from Dubai trip

She’s been candid about her battle with body confidence after trolls criticised her appearance in the past.

And Amy Hart has detailed overcoming her ‘insecurities’ as she shared bikini snaps from her trip to Dubai last year on Instagram on Tuesday.

The Love Island star, 27, reflected on ‘wasting time on deciding whether her hips looked too big’ as she encouraged her social media followers to ‘stop worrying and enjoy life’ amid the UK’s coronavirus lockdown.

Catching the eye, the former British Airways employee stunned as she went paddleboarding with her pals in a neon green two-piece, which highlighted her incredible figure.

Admitting she’s come a long way from struggling with body image, the Celebs Go Dating star captioned the images: ‘Is anyone else using this time to think back on all the time they’ve wasted in the past? 

‘I took this picture in the bathroom in Dubai to send to the holiday group chat. I’d gone to change bikinis for paddle boarding and spent a good 15 mins deciding wether or not my hips looked too big. 

‘sent this to the girls to get their opinion on wether or not I was safe to venture out or if I should go back to the room and get something else. 

‘Now when I scroll through our Dubai pictures all I think of is how much fun we had and how I wish we could go again, not the insecurities I felt that day. So what I’m saying is…enjoy your life, drink the wine and try to stop worrying.’ [sic]

In March, Amy took a break from social media after being sent nasty messages from trolls.

The former flight attendant decided to take the step back after critics took aim at her veneers, with one telling her that her ‘pony had better teeth’ than her.

Amy shared a message on Twitter saying she no longer wanted to read the comments and said that the ‘be kind’ message – which emerged shortly after host Caroline Flack’s tragic death – only lasted ‘two days’.

The blonde wrote on Twitter: ‘Well after a day of really positive messages about helping each other and being kind, I think I’m gonna take a break from social media.

‘I don’t need to read stuff like this everyday. The whole be kind thing literally lasted 2 days. [sic]’

Underneath the message, the TV star shared a selection of the comments she had received both underneath her Instagram pictures and private.
