Chrissy Teigen is continuing to flaunt her new bikini body in the aftermath of recent surgery to have her breast implants removed.
The mum-of-two and former Sports Illustrated model has posted an Instagram story featuring her posing in a stunning black two-piece, following on from the photos of her confidently wearing a red floral bikini during her family holiday in Mexico.

“This is a video … I can’t move … Because I’m trying to look curvy,” Teigen, 34, told her followers.
She has shared several images of her post-surgery figure in recent days.
Teigen, who is also a cookbook author, a TV star and a prolific presence on social media, announced she was undergoing surgery on Instagram last month, and explained why.
“I’m getting my boobs out!” she said.
“They’ve been great to me for many years but I’m just over it.
“I’d like to be able to zip a dress in my size, lay on my belly with pure comfort! No biggie!
“So don’t worry about me! All good. I’ll still have boobs, they’ll just be pure fat. Which is all a tit is in the first place. A dumb, miraculous bag of fat.”

In late March, the star marked her “10-year anniversary” since getting her breast implants, later opening up about the reasons she had the surgery to begin with.
She said she had kept her cup size but “filled them out so they are rounder and firmer”.
“I did my boobs when I was about 20 years old,” she told Glamour UK.
“It was more of a swimsuit thing. I thought, if I’m going to be posing, laid on my back, I want them to be perky.
“But then you have babies and they fill up with milk and deflate and now I am screwed.”
Teigen has two children with singer John Legend – Luna, 4, and Miles, 2.
Teigen said having children had made her consider the risks of going under the knife again.
“This is not the way I want to die, in boob surgery,” she told the women’s magazine.
After making the decision, fellow model Naomi Campbell sent her best wishes for surgery.
“Be safe,” Campbell said.
English singer Natasha Bedingfield shared on Teigen’s Instagram post that she missed “having big boobs from breast feeding but smaller is so so much easier to dress for sure”.
Teigen revealed her breast surgery went “perfectly” last month and shared two hilarious notes she had received from daughter Luna.

“Bye boobies,” one read.
The other said: “Have fun pulling your boobies out. Love Luna.”
Teigen said she was “so so so so so sore” but the note made the pain go away “for half a minute at least”.
On Twitter, she wrote: “Surgery went great! The note I woke up to is the absolute best part”.
