The Team GB star is taking some well-deserved downtime after breaking records and collecting gold medals earlier in 2026
Keely Hodgkinson stunned fans with a braless outfit as she posed for some cheeky snaps during a safari holiday. The Team GB star has been enjoying a well-earned break in South Africa as she soaks up the sun.
Hodgkinson broke the women’s 800m indoor record in February with a time of one minute and 54.87 seconds, before going on to win big at the World Indoor Athletic Championships. She was part of a trio of gold medals for Team GB and travelled abroad to enjoy this success with a holiday.
The 24-year-old has been soaking up the sun in South Africa and enjoyed a safari trip with her friends. In pictures uploaded to social media, the middle-distance runner went braless in a sheer white shirt, a sunhat and some blue jeans.
Hodgkinson also shared snaps of her out swimming at a luxurious villa. She captioned the Instagram post: “Checking in: all good.” Fans flocked to the comments section to share their shock at her saucy pictures. One wrote: “So beautiful anyway, anywhere, always.” Another added: “Wow, stunning posts, you are truly a goddess.”
A third said: “You have Victoria’s Secret angel’s star aura.” A fourth joked: “There’s a screensaver in there somewhere, yeah, you know!” while a fifth said: “Good on you, Keely… enjoy, you deserve it.”
Hodgkinson often shares snaps to her 617,000-strong Instagram following, most of which are from her day job in athletics. However, she has gone braless before during a break from life in October, as she posed in a bright pink dress that hugged her figure.
Fans were just as stunned at this snap, with one writing: “So glamorous in this beautiful evening gown. You are quite the star!”
The runner has been relying on the word “domination” during her athletics career this year, stating that she is ready for whatever life throws at her on the track. Speaking after winning her first world indoor title, Hodgkinson said: “My word, this year has been domination. When I’m in the shape of my life, why leave it to chance? If you want to beat me, I’ll make you work hard for it.”
Reflecting on Team GB’s success, she added: “It has been such a fun few days. I’m really grateful to be here and to be healthy. I’m glad I could show what I know I can do. To get three golds in half an hour is absolutely amazing. We absolutely smashed it.”
