Emily Atack has flashed her toned tummy as she waxed lyrical about the benefits of exercise and dining with friends as she looks ahead to a busy few months.
The 32-year-old star ended the last year under something of a storm cloud as rumours of a romantic liaison with professional footballer Jack Grealish, 26, seemed to follow her everywhere she went.
But now she seems to be putting the drama surrounding herself and Jack – who has been in a 10 year relationship with 25-year-old childhood sweetheart Sasha Attwood – behind her.
Taking to Instagram on Tuesday, Emily shared a collection of photographs of herself alongside various family members, friends, and her pet dog as she teased a string of upcoming secret projects.
Selecting a photo of herself in a fitness top and matching print exercise leggings, Emily gave an insight into her current state of mind.
Uploading the snaps to her main feed, the TV star wrote: “It’s amazing what a bit of exercise, slightly earlier nights, and cooking in your kitchen for your mates can do for your scrambled mind.
“I’ve got amazing announcements to make this week, and I’ve had two weeks of freedom to get myself together, move into my new home, and surround myself with the people and the things that make me happy, all ready to take on the fresh madness that’s about to begin.”
She added: “Learning to look after myself better. For now anyway” – and added a crazy face emoji.
Photos showed Emily reviewing fresh fruit at a local market, her brother George tending to her window-box flowers, plates of food, and her sun-soaked kitchen.
Further photos showed her posing in businesswear for a mirror selfie, laughing and drinking with a male friend, posing with her father, Keith, for a selfie, posing with a gaggle of girls – including her sister, Martha – and a snap of herself gazing lovingly at her dog, Penny.
Emily has a trio of upcoming acting roles in post-production – with a part in a sci-fi drama called Dark Cloud, a comedy called Lifecoach, and a romantic thriller called Felo De Se all coming up.
Last month, Emily got candid during an Instagram Q&A with fans – hinting at some of the strain she was under in 2021 when reports raged that she had enjoyed a fling with footballer Jack.
Asked if she was happy, Emily replied: "Not always! I definitely have my struggles. But I try to fill my life with as much love as possible.
"I definitely know how to have fun and I know how to help myself feel better. I don’t always do the right thing, but I’m surrounded with incredible support when I sometimes lose my way."
And taking to her Instagram Stories at another time, the Celebrity Juice star shared a poem from Yung Pueblo which may have alluded to her rumoured romantic woes from last year.
The poem read: "I was never addicted to one thing, I was addicted to filling a void within myself with things other than my own love."
