Love Island star Montana Brown displays her peachy bottom and toned stomach in a blue bikini as she continues her stay in Barbados

She avoided the UK’s third lockdown as she jetted off to Barbados over the Christmas period to spend time with her family. 

And Montana Brown showed off her incredible figure in blue swimwear on Wednesday as she made the most of her sun-soaked stay. 

The former Love Island star, 25, flaunted her pert derrière and taut midriff in her chic two-piece as she posed on eroded steps near the beachfront.

She added a touch of glamour with an ankle bracelet as she styled her chocolate tresses in a straight hairdo before tucking them up in a stylish bun. 

‘Why do I naturally stand, walk and dance like a robot with my arms so far away from my body,’ Montana wrote alongside her snaps on Instagram. 

It comes after the star called for greater diversity on Love Island as she insisted it’s ‘unhealthy for people to just see size 8s chomping around in their bikinis.’ 

The swimwear brand owner also stated: ‘I wanna see more people of colour’ while concluding that ‘with regards to racial diversity and body diversity, there’s always room for improvement’ on the programme.

Speaking on the latest What Day Is It? podcast, Montana was quizzed about how progressive Love Island is.

She admitted: ‘I feel like, as a mixed race person, you’re always in a minority, especially on a show like that. It’s not something that I necessarily thought of while I was in the show.

‘I’ve had quite a privileged upbringing. I grew up in quite a white area so I’ve always been in the minority anyway. So it’s something that I didn’t feel uncomfortable with.

‘But I definitely think with regards to racial diversity and body diversity there’s always room for improvement.’

Montana went further, explaining why there’s a need to have a more inclusive cast, which is better representative of society. 

She said: ‘I think it’s so important, because that [Love Island] so gets so many millions and millions of views. People wanna see themselves on the screen, people wanna feel like they’re being represented. 

‘So it’s really important that they are having curvier girls on there. I think there’s a degree of – not everyone can be cast for love island.

‘There is a really fine line of: you want it to be entertaining, you want it to be aspirational, you wanna see a bunch of good looking people on television having fun and you wanna live vicariously through that.

‘But then you also wanna represent the UK and everybody who is a size bigger than a size 8.

‘I do think that’s unhealthy for people to just see size 8s chomping around in their bikinis, because then people perceive that the only way to be beautiful is to be a size 8, or be a smaller size. So there’s definitely work to do.’

Asked what she’d like to change on Love Island, Montana revealed: ‘I think I’d wanna see more people of colour.

‘I feel like there’s literally only maybe two or three people of colour on the whole series. And I do think they are like token people. And it shouldn’t be like ticking a box.

‘And I know it’s so hard because, I’m thinking back, and there was one researcher called Coco who was black, but as you get further up, it’s a white dominated industry.

‘It’s just a case of the heads of ITV being really really being focused on being diverse. It might be subconscious for them, but they definitely have to open their eyes and make sure that they’re being more diverse, racially.’
