‘Most beautiful girl in the world’ Thylane Blondeau, 20, slips into a bikini as she sunbathes with beau Ben Attal on a luxury yacht in St Tropez

She was branded the ‘most beautiful girl in the world’ as a child. 

And Thylane Blondeau showcased her stunning natural beauty as she enjoyed sunbathing with her actor boyfriend Ben Attal on a luxury yacht in St Tropez on Thursday. 

The French model, 20, looked radiant as she went makeup free while soaking up the rays in a blue bikini. 

Fun in the sun: ‘Most beautiful girl in the world’ Thylane Blondeau slipped into a bikini as she sunbathed with beau Ben Attal on a luxury yacht in St Tropez on Thursday

Thylane put her incredible figure on display in the two-piece which offered a look at her taut stomach and the inkings on her arm. 

She teamed the garment with a pair of denim hotpants and swept her glossy locks back with an orange scrunchie. 

Hopping off the boat later for a stroll on dry land, the model layered up with a cream thin-knit jumper and donned purple hued trainers.

Thylane was previously in a relationship with French DJ, Milane Meritte, but the pair separated last year. 

The designer is the daughter of football player Patrick Blondeau, and rocketed to fame in 2007 at the age of six after being named the ‘most beautiful girl in the world’.

It’s an accolade that she’s achieved twice, as 11 years later Thylane once again cinched the coveted title, coming in top of TC Candler’s 2018 annual awards list.

Up she goes: The stunning model even managed to make putting on a pair of shorts look like an artistic moment 

The awards, which began in 1990, pride themselves on being among the most ‘diverse’ beauty awards. 

Taking to Instagram at the time, a delighted Thylane thanked the competition for the award, admitting that she ‘couldn’t believe it’.

She wrote: ‘I just can’t believe it myself, thanks so much @tccandler and everyone who voted.

‘I never thought I was once number one! I’m thankful to all of you I really hope you’re having great holidays and spend nice Christmas with your family ..all the best to all of you guys lots of love (sic)’.

Two’s company: The couple were enjoying a relaxing moment soaking up the sunshine 

The competition, named ‘The 29th Annual Independent Critics List 2018’, was founded in 1990 by British film critic TC Candler, and has previously awarded Michelle Pfeiffer, Marion Cottilard and Jourdan Dunn with the title.

Boasting 750 million likes, and 1.4million followers and subscribers over their Instagram and YouTube channel, the awards have racked up a viral following across the globe over the past three decades. 

Thylane walked for Jean Paul Gaultier at the age of four and then later, aged 10, became the youngest ever model to pose for Vogue Paris.

Taking it easy: The pair seemed to be loving life as they chilled out in the warm weather 

Cosy: The pair were cuddled up close while looking out at the sights of Saint Tropez 

However, the editorial attracted criticism at the time, for being too ‘sexualised’ as Thylane wore short dresses and makeup.  

But her mother Veronika Loubry, a fashion designer, defended the cover at the time.

She told a French newspaper: ‘The only thing that shocks me about the photo is the necklace that she’s wearing, which is worth 3 million Euros,’ or about $4.3 million.

The teenager certainly has mingled with the creme de la creme of the next generation of models, having been pictured walking alongside the likes of Jourdan Dunn and the offspring of celebrities, including Christian Combs and Lori Harvey, the children of Diddy and Steve Harvey, respectively. 

Last September, Thylane was in Italy for Milan Fashion Week, walking the catwalk for the fashion brand BYBLOS.

The front row was packed with Italian celebrities and the model strutted her stuff in a sporty ensemble by the brand.

Making moves: The pair had enough of chilling out and wanted to go exploring

That same month, she also announced that she was launching her own fashion brand.

Thylane is now a brand ambassador for L’Oréal, and has been named the face of a perfume by French designer, Lolita Lempicka.

She has also appeared in Dolce & Gabbana’s Spring 2017 campaign alongside Zendaya, Lucky Blue Smith, and Presley Gerber.
