The I’m A Celeb star, 39, looked gorgeous in a colourful crochet bikini as she hit the beach on Monday with husband Wayne and their long-time friends Michael and Lisa Carrick.
The WAG flaunted her toned and tanned figure in the skimpy swimwear which she paired with Miu Miu shades.
Mum of four Coleen cooled down with a dip in the sea with Lisa, who looked gorgeous in a burgundy bandeau bikini.
Coleen and Lisa have been close friends and holiday companions since their husbands were Manchester United teammates.
Meanwhile Wayne, looking casual in a white t-shirt and blue cap, was spotted happily chatting to Michael and Lisa whilst enjoying a crisp glass of white wine on the beach.
Their holiday comes hot on the heels of Coleen’s rival Rebekah Vardy speaking out on their Wagatha Christie drama.
She has claimed she faced ‘more scrutiny than murderers and paedophiles’ amid the court case.
In 2019, the WAG was publicly accused of leaking stories about Coleen to The Sun newspaper, which she furiously denied, resulting in a high profile court battle.
Rebekah, 43, suffered further humiliation when she lost her libel case and in a fresh blow last month she was ordered to pay £1,190,000 of Coleen’s legal bills.
And earlier this month the mother-of-five has claimed the backlash towards her was disproportionate and has continued to protest her innocence.
In an interview with Vanity Fair, Rebekah insisted: ‘I didn’t sell stories to The Sun newspaper and that really is the end of it’.
Claiming that she ‘got the raw end of that’, she continued: ‘In fact, I think murderers and paedophiles have faced far less scrutiny than I did.’
Yet Rebekah noted that now she’s ‘at peace’ and is looking forward, in particular, to an upcoming Netflix documentary about husband Jamie.
She also revealed that she is still in touch with Caroline Watt – her former agent – who she claimed was responsible for leaking the stories behind her back.
Caroline was also the owner of a mobile phone filled with evidence that ended up at the bottom of the North Sea – or ‘Davy Jones’s locker’ as it was famously dubbed in court.
Rebekah claimed that Coleen’s legal team had been ‘unfair and completely unjust’ in serving paperwork to Caroline’s home rather than through her lawyers and that Caroline had been through ‘considerable anguish’.
Caroline did not testify during the trial, after being deemed ‘not fit to provide oral evidence’, and is yet to provide comment on the matter.
When told that fans would be keen to hear Caroline’s side of story, Rebekah mused: ‘Well, maybe there’s a different version of that completely.’
Last month, the six-year legal battle finally came to an end when Rebekah agreed to pay £1,190,000 of Coleen’s legal bill, plus was ordered to pay a further £212,266 in assessment costs, after sensationally losing their high-profile libel case.
This takes the total Rebekah must pay to at least £1,402,266.20.
MailOnline understands she has already paid some of the bill, including £800,000 four years ago and £100,000 last year.
Coleen must also pay Rebekah a total of £135,097.50 in costs under the terms of court orders from 2024, which will be set off against what Rebekah must pay.
A source close to Rebekah told MailOnline: ‘It’s a huge relief for Rebekah that this long legal battle is now coming to an end.
‘She’s looking forward to putting the whole ordeal well and truly behind her.
‘Now she’s just focusing on the future. And there are some big plans coming up for her now that she just wants to get cracking with.’
