Lionesses hero Hannah Hampton has stunned with an eye-catching swimsuit snap.
The Chelsea goalkeeper, 25, has been indulging in what's sure to be a summer to remember and has given fans a behind-the-scenes glimpse of her antics. After appearing across three major tournaments in the last four years, Hampton has taken some well-deserved downtime.
The two-time European champion has been spotted soaking up the sun in Zanzibar and Barcelona in recent weeks. She kicked off her summer with a visit to Wimbledon, where she watched eventual winner Jannik Sinner in action.

But it was while holidaying across Europe that her snaps caused a stir. Underneath her latest photo dump came a sea of red heart emojis and supportive comments as she showed off her incredible figure in a sleek black bathing suit.
Other photos included one of her swimming alongside turtles and another showing her cheering on England's men at the World Cup while wearing a Three Lions shirt.
Hampton shared pictures from Barcelona, too, including a visit to the legendary La Sagrada Familia and another of her wearing the shirt of her former side, Villarreal. She captioned the series: "A few more for the plot."
Her summer of fun continued as she posted photos of herself wearing cowboy boots and a hat at Wembley Stadium, watching country music megastar Luke Combs.
Hampton has recently signed a new two-year contract with Chelsea. She first joined the Blues from Aston Villa in 2023 and became the club's No 1 in the 2024/25 campaign as her side went unbeaten in a stunning treble-winning season.
The WSL kicks off in just over two weeks' time on September 4. Chelsea will welcome Villa to Stamford Bridge on September 5.
Chelsea Women produced two dominant displays on their pre-season summer tour, beating an Auckland FC invitational side 7-0 before hammering the A-Leagues All Stars Women 3-0 in Sydney. Hampton was a half-time substitute in the first match in New Zealand and picked up another half of action in Australia.
Hampton leapt to fame when she took over from England keeper Mary Earps to become Sarina Wiegman's first-choice for the national team ahead of the Euros in 2025.
Her stratospheric rise has been all the more incredible considering that she was born with strabismus, a condition that left her cross-eyed. She underwent multiple operations to realign her eyes up to the age of three.
Hampton, whose penalty shootout saves helped the Lionesses retain the European Championship trophy in 2025, said: I have got a visual impairment. I was born with a squint and being cross-eyed I had to have multiple operations before I was three-years-old to try and straighten them.
They are not quite straight now. I can go back for more operations but there is always that risk that it's going to make your eyesight worse. Alongside that I have then found out that I have got no depth perception. So I cannot judge distances which as a goalkeeper is quite needed.
