Isn't she fab for not hiding or surgically improving her slightly crepey tummy!?? I feel really quite cheered.

I saw that too and felt "great, a real woman" but no doubt someone will make her feel crap.

I love bikinis and have a generally good figure. I do however have a knackered tummy button (although I'm pg again, and may have a war-zone for an abdomen by the end of this one). I've decided that if she is happy to wear a bikini in the knowledge that she'll be papped and displayed to millions, then I can jolly well brave the occasional passing glance.

Have you read some of the comments on the Daily Mail website? Positively vile.

Makes me like her a bit more, knowing that she is not perfect but doesn't let it bother her.

It's a welcome breath of fresh air to see a celeb looking normal after kids.

SEA - well, not quite. For wearing a bikini with a noticeably post-child figure. There really aren't many folk out there who do that.

You'd cover up with that figure? On the beach?@KerryMumbles

That's why women are so paranoid about their bodies. Because of other women and their weird disgust for normal female bodies.

I think she looks great. She's 40+ and has got three kids.
She looks more than great.

Not sure of the Daily Arse Wiper's motivation for printing pix of her, though?

Good for her. My stomach is a bit like hers but bigger and a bit more wobbly. I absolutly hate it and until I went abroad last Sept would never have been seen dead in a bikini as I feel so self concious about it.

Kerrymumbles you nutter! Why would you cover that figure up?

She looks frickin AWESOME! (and I'm not usually a fan)

My tummy looks a wee bit like that but as if someone has shoved a big blamange (what a horrible word-boke) up under it

She looks great. No idea why she has the names of her 3 children tattooed down her bum crack though.

I think she looks great. Some of the comments on the DM website are absolutely vile. Honestly, woman can be so utterly bitchy and vacous sometimes.

Fantastic, she looks amazing but it's really nice to see a sleb that hasn't done down the c-section and tummy tuck route-VB take note

She looks fine for her age and maternal condition - um by which I mean, the fact that she has had 3 children. I never realised she had a body double in Pretty Woman. Actually, this has cheered me up a bit as I have recently been lamenting the body I once had, but if Julia can show hers (not that there is anything wrong with it, but she would have known that once she showed it, the world's press will publish pictures of it) I feel a bit better about mine.

I liked her comment about acting naked would be a documentary.

Isn't unbeleivable how conditoned we all are and 'expect' celeb's to look like androids. It scares me man.

I was surprised to see that she has skin like that, only becuase it's not the norm when you see celebs, but it IS the norm in real life!

hooray.

Not only has she had three children, but two of them are twins.

She has a very good figure for having had twins. She has no extra fat, just extra skin that comes from the twin pregnancy. Good for her for not conforming and having surgery.

I think it is great to see this and the blurb was very glowing [slightly suspicious, not sure why]
Yeah now which hairy mary sleb will be brave enough to turn up on the beach unwaxed.....hmmmm.

Posh never shows off her stomach, so who knows what it's like? But then Posh would never frolick in the sea or...er...smile... do anything fun, would she?
