Frankie Essex shows off her hourglass curves in a strapless monochrome swimsuit as she hits the beach after extending her ‘work trip’ in Mexico

She has extended her ‘work trip’ in Mexico after Tulum was branded ‘the new Dubai for influencers’ following the UAE’s travel ban. 

And Frankie Essex appeared to be living the high life as she hit the beach on Friday to lap up the sunshine. 

The former TOWIE star, 33, who has been working hard on her fitness after her weight crept up to 12 stone and 13 pounds last year, showed off the fruits of her labour in a flattering monochrome swimsuit.

The strapless swimsuit accentuated Frankie’s ample cleavage while the white belt cinched her in at the waist. 

The television personality teamed the one-piece with a mesh kaftan and matching sun visor. 

Frankie, who is in Tulum with her cousins Chloe and Demi Sims, appeared in jubilant spirits as she sauntered down the beach with seemingly not a care in the world.

Frankie addressed why she flew to Mexico in a post on Instagram, amid the recent backlash from reality stars who have jetted abroad while the nation is in lockdown. 

The star wrote: ‘Tulum I’m really excited for the opportunity to be with my cousin @chloe_simsstarship on a work related trip. Feeling very grateful. 

‘All UK guidelines were covered for my trip and will be for my return.’

The cousins have certainly been enjoying themselves during downtime from work, with the pair seen partying up a storm in local hotspot Bagatelle last weekend. 

Earlier this week, Frankie displayed her slender frame in a selfie after confirming she has begun a new fitness regime. 

The television personality admitted she was ‘feeling good’ as she prioritised her health during the UK’s third nationwide lockdown.

Celebrities and influencers have been flocking to Mexico’s bars and beaches as it establishes itself as the latest COVID getaway destination.

The country, which is not yet on the UK’s travel red-list, appears to be the new destination of choice for global jet-setters and could rocket in popularity after travel from influencer magnet Dubai was banned last week.  

Travel abroad is now banned from the UK without a legally permitted reason, Home Secretary Priti Patel announced last week, as she criticised influencers for ‘showing off in sunny parts of the world’. 

While not on the UK’s travel red-list, Mexico has been one of world’s counties hardest hit by the coronavirus.
