TOWIE's Ferne McCann is slaying this bikini. It's plain and simple but she still manages to make it look dressy.

The Celebrity Big Brother star went on to say: "You have watched me at my most vulnerable, and my most fearless, through some incredibly tough times and followed me right by my side through to the shining light at the end of some of the darkest tunnels.

"And now, you get to witness the greatest blessing life could bestow upon another human being. The gift of life!"
