Hetti Bywater shot to fame in 2012 when she landed the part as Ian’s Beale’s daughter Lucy Beale in BBC soap opera EastEnders.
The 24-year-old English actress played the role of the teenager for three years until her character’s death – her alter ego was murdered by her brother Bobby.
Nowadays, the talented star, who has since appeared in BBC One’s Death In Paradise and Sky’s Delicious, has been making waves on social media, sharing a string of fashionable posts and sexy swimsuit snaps.
She took to Instagram yesterday with one such picture displaying her trim figure in a black bikini.
Hetti, who’s birth name is Harriet, shared the snap with her 99,200 followers from an unknown destination.
The blonde haired star can be seen with her hair loose over her shoulders striking a pose in the stylish two-piece in front of a white wall.
She captioned the image, which showcases her sun-kissed body and toned abs: “Don’t ask what I’m doin. @tjswim.”
The high-leg bikini appears to be from the swimwear brand TJ SWIM, which she tagged into the picture.
Hetti wears the Kendal top and bottoms in black that retail online for £75, teamed with jewellery from Amber Sceats.
The former soap star posted a second snap in the same item with one hand in her hair and the other at her waist.
