Jacqueline was goaded into going for a dip by her daughter and appeared to regret it right away as she grimaced and said the water was ‘freezing’. 

Speaking to her followers, she said: ‘They want me to get in it’s too cold. I got in – it’s actually freezing.”

‘If you close your eyes you could be in Spain, Turkey, anywhere but here.’

It comes after Jacqueline said she is planning on kick-starting an exercise routine after heading to Ibiza to shoot her swimwear campaign last week.

The actress took to Instagram to tell fans she wanted to pick up her fitness routine, not with the aim to be ‘skinny’ but for her mental health.

Jacqueline, who has embraced her size 12-14 figure, said: ‘I’m having those thoughts of I need to start doing a bit for me and I’m going to try and go for walks and maybe do some exercise.

‘And no, before everyone pipes up it’s not to necessarily lose weight, I wouldn’t mind it but it is more just to know that you’re doing something. 

‘Because work-wise I’m feeling really good, I’m busy I’m on the ball and I just want to maintain that and I feel like getting on the ball with it now, it’s got to be done.’

Jacqueline thanked fans for the support she has received since sharing the unedited images, admitting that she wrestled with the decision as to whether she should post them, but after doing so, she felt like a weight had been lifted.

She said: ‘It was a decision I didn’t take lightly. But I’m glad I did it, it takes the edge off. If unflattering photos of me go out I just don’t care… I feel like you have got to take the narrative of your own story.’

‘The truth is I don’t care I’m not a model size 8. I did used to be.

‘I absolutely loved being size 8 but now I’m a size 12, sometimes size 14 in bottoms because of my big legs and bum. That’s actually OK because I’ve never seen it as a plus size.’

‘Everyone should feel comfortable in their own skin. It makes me feel really sad that there’s people out there who think they can’t post bikini shots because they have a few rolls or they’re a bigger size than somebody else is.’
