I’m 50 and flaunt my bum in thong bikini like Love Islanders, people who can’t embrace them are prudish, says Alex Best
THONG bikinis make sense and women, whatever their age, should embrace them. While this pack of Love Islanders might be flaunting their bums, it’s nothing new – I was wearing thong bikinis in the late Eighties and I wouldn’t say no to wearing one now. My derriere became famous on I’m A Celeb in 2004.

My derriere became famous on I’m A Celeb in 2004.
I was 31 and proud to show off my size 8 figure and perfectly round bottom in a thong bikini. I’d worked hard on it, so why not?
Shortly after the show I ended up winning Rear Of The Year. I loved my bottom and it seemed everyone else did too.
Now I’m 50 and still flaunting it.

Thongs work with your shape and don’t cut into your bum like other bikinis do.
People may think bikini thongs are trashy and leave nothing to the imagination but it’s not anyone else’s business.
It feels like we live in such a nanny state society now.
Years ago when I was with George on holiday, I used to wear a thong with a costume over the top.

I’d take the top off when I was on the sunbed and lie in the thong to tan my bum.
I didn’t get any odd looks back then – everyone was topless in those days. Now if somebody sees that, they will say: “Oh my goodness.”

We are supposed to be moving forward, not going back in time. It’s prudish and boring.
If a woman wants to wear a thong bikini, she should do so.
Having an opinion on someone based on the bikini they wear is straight up body shaming.
I heard recently that “You can’t wear a bikini if you’re over 50 – you have to wear a swimsuit.”
Well that’s a load of rubbish. I’m 50 and don’t feel any different – I’m a size ten.
Most women aren’t wearing them for men – they’re wearing them because they want an all-over tan, and because they feel confident in them.
I’ve been single for around ten years, and I do everything for myself, especially what I choose to wear.

The Love Island girls and celebs like Heidi Klum and Kate Hudson all look fantastic – why shouldn’t they show off their great figures?
And to those who think they look extremely uncomfortable, I say get a bigger size and try it out for yourself – you may be in for a surprise.
