Gemma Atkinson shows off her toned physique in Aztec print bikini as she soaks up the sun in the Dominican Republic

 She is known for her dedicated fitness and health regime.
So it is no surprise Gemma Atkinson showcased her enviable bikini body while on holiday last month.
The 29-year-old showed off her toned figure in an Aztec-print halter neck bikini as she lounged by a pool in the Dominican Republic.

 The former Casualty star enjoyed the resort stay with her make-up artist, Cinta Miller, as the pair were seen topping up their tans.
Gemma was sure to protect her skin as she rubbed sunscreen lotion over her svelte physique.

The starlet seemed content as she lay on a sun lounger and pick up a book to read.

 The duo were seen laughing and chatting the leisurely afternoon away as they enjoyed the relaxing break in the popular tourist destination.
The former Hollyoaks star recently admitted that she doesn’t keep up her gruelling training regime while she is enjoying a break from work.
Speaking to The Daily Star, she said: 'I love a pizza or doughnuts as much as the next person but I tend to have them as a cheat meal as opposed to a cheat day.

 'If I'm having pizza for tea I'll still eat clean for breakfast or lunch.
She added: 'I don't binge as that just makes getting back in shape harder and in my job I could have anything from three months to three days notice for a shoot or audition.'
Gemma was recently unveiled as the face of sportswear brand, USA Pro.
