She recently admitted that the odd secret behind her slender figure is a diet high in raw mushrooms.
And
while some might find Roxanne Pallett's claim a little far-fetched, it
can't be denied that whatever she's doing is working to enviable
effect.
The 29-year-old showed off her gorgeous bikini curves as she hung out by the pool in Tenerife on Tuesday.

Roxanne wore a deep blue two-piece with splashes of pale blue, pink and yellow, complementing her tan.
She wore her long hair up in a high ponytail-a practical option for swimming.
The actress wore minimal make-up, and appeared to have applied just a little waterproof mascara.

She had a pair of sunglasses
with her, but preferred to use them as an accessory, wearing them in her
hair rather than over her eyes.
Roxanne took a break from the water briefly, sitting on the side of the pool and dipping her toe in the water.
She read a few pages of Jason Manford's autobiography Brung Up Proper while soaking up the sun.

She explained the diet trick at
the launch party of the Bali Health lounge in Manchester, where she
avoided the calorific canapés and munched on her own secret stash of
mushrooms.
‘This new role
that I’ll soon be filming for is important to me and I need to look my
best – mushrooms prevent me from gorging on fatty foods,' she said.
'I’ve upped the good foods in my diet. Mushrooms are one of them and they’re healthy - which is an added bonus.

‘I love mushrooms – they give me so much energy and help me to keep going which is important with my busy schedule.'
‘I especially love James Martin’s mushroom soup – it’s divine, low in calories and very easy to make.’
Roxanne
claimed that raw mushrooms have helped her dropped a dress size in just
under two weeks and said she’s incorporating the vegetable in to her
daily diet as a way of keeping her figure ‘ship-shape’.
