Nicole Scherzinger bares bottom in 'cheeky' thong bikini

After ringing in the New Year with her beau Thom Evans by her side, Nicole Scherzinger is starting 2021 right with a luxe holiday on the stunning Turks and Caicos Islands in the Caribbean.

On Friday, the 42-year-old donned a cheetah-print bikini and hit the pristine beaches for some “cheeky shenanigans” with her boyfriend, a former Scottish rugby union player and model.

Nicole made sure to capture the pair’s fun in the sun, sharing three silly, skin-baring snaps to her Instagram account.

In one pic, the couple hams it up for the camera by pulling faces — but when you’re both that attractive it’s hard to take a bad photo!
