Jasmine Harman: A Place In The Sun star strips to swimsuit as she denies ‘losing curves’

Jasmine Harman hit back at claims she had “lost her curves” by sharing before and after pictures of her dressed in her swimwear on Instagram. The presenter, who has fronted A Place In The Sun: Home Or Away since 2004, has lost more than 20 pounds over the last six months. The 43-year-old compared a photo taken last summer to a recent shot, saying she still very much had her curvy figure despite what some supposedly thought. The mother-of-two said she now “felt great” and was hoping to motivate others to make the change.

The first shot of Jasmine saw her standing in the sea at an unknown location, with her wet tresses down.

Keeping her sunglasses firmly on, she was seen in a navy one-piece with thick straps and a colourful print.

It was adorned with pink and white palm trees throughout, while her accessories were kept to a minimum.

The second snap saw Jasmine flaunting her streamlined body in the same cossie in another very sunny location.

She asked in the caption: “Can you spot the difference? One was in August, and one is now!”

She continued: “I’ve lost over 20lbs since I began exercising again five months ago, along with eating more whole #vegan foods and less junk, smaller portions, less alcohol, fewer snacks like crisps and biscuits, and definitely a lot less bread.

“I feel great and I’m sticking with it, slowly but surely getting to my goal.”

Jasmine then stated: “A lot of people have said I’ve lost too much weight and I’ve lost my curves… well hopefully now you’ll see that is not true!

“Both photos are un-retouched! I’m hoping this will motivate those looking for a long-term lifestyle change! And thanks so much to all those who have inspired me!”

The small screen regular included the hashtags: “#letsdothis #fitness #beforeandafter #weightloss #weightlossjourney #health.”

Jasmine was soon inundated with compliments, with one user quipping: “Just a bit more of you to love in the old pic.”

Two others continued: “Looking like a goddess,” and: “Just what I needed to give me a kick start, you look amazing to me.”

A third added: “You look fabulous, and well done for losing weight in a healthy fashion.

“My excess weight always goes around my middle and it’s so hard to shift. You’ve inspired me, thank you.”

It comes just hours after Jasmine revealed her huge news and thanked “everyone for the support”.

A Place In The Sun: Home Or Away airs weekdays at 3pm on Channel 4.
