“There’s only time for 3 minutes a day sunbathing as it’s soooo f…..g hot!!!” she captioned the summery post.

In the accompanying photo, Denise looks effortlessly stylish in a multicolored swimming costume by Tesco ‘s F&F clothing brand and a pair of beige wedges. The 65-year-old has teamed the beachy look with her signature blonde cropped hair, black eye makeup and a swipe of coral lipstick.

Always one to look on the bright side, the TV personality isn’t about to let the blistering heat spoil her getaway.

“We’re in a beautiful boutique hotel and it’s a great excuse to do nothing but lie around, get massages, read and eat!!” she said, before summarising the experience as, “Bliss.”

Denise and her husband are living it up at The Village Boutique Hotel in Naxxar, Malta, which is located in the northern region of the idyllic island.

The former Coronation Street star also revealed beneath her Instagram post that she is reading The Honeymoon by Rona Halsall.

Denise’s followers were quick to share their reactions to her update, with many taking to comment section to send their kind messages.

“Love the lipstick vibe with your cossie,” one person wrote, while another said, “You look incredible.”

The Celebrity Big Brother winner also received gushing praise from some of her famous friends, including Coronation Street actress, Sally Dynevor, who wrote, “Sooo hot.” Countdown star Carol Vorderman echoed this sentiment, commenting, “Whit whoo,” beneath the photo.

Denise received criticism for her comments on the heatwave that gripped the UK in the summer of 2022.

While the author acknowledged that the nation was unable to “deal with any extremes”, she wasn’t too happy with the sensational language used by newspapers to report on the severe weather conditions.

“This is obviously more extreme than that but what gets me is the media’s obsession with words like ‘deadly’, ‘killer’, or we’re basically all going to die if we go outside.” She also admitted that she wishes headlines would be more ‘informative’ and ‘encouraging’, before adding, “There’s a bit of enjoyment in hot weather.”

Denise’s rant quickly prompted backlash from viewers, many of whom took to Twitter to voice their disagreements.

“Tell Denise people do die from the heat,” one person wrote. “And a lot of people are likely to die at 40c in this country because we don’t have the infrastructure to deal with it. Where is the care for people who have any health conditions?”
