Martha Kalifatidis praised by fans for sharing ‘real’ body in bikini selfies

Martha Kalifatidis has been praised by fans for sharing a series of “real’ body in bikini selfies that show a normal detail many celebrities edit out.

She’s known for keeping it real and isn’t afraid to say what she thinks.

Now Martha Kalifatidis has given her fans another refreshing reason to love her after sharing a bikini photo that proudly shows off her stretch marks.

The 31-year-old former MAFS star took to Instagram over the long weekend to share a series of photos and videos rocking a $205 floral bikini.

“On your screens n’ in your dreams,” she cheekily captioned a photo shared to her feed.

But while she undoubtedly looks a million bucks in the two-piece swimmers that feature a racy strap across her midriff – many of her 305,000 followers were more interested in the fact she was sharing her “real” body.

“Thank you for not photo shopping stretch marks. Great to see on my feed as a female teenager,” one follower wrote.

“You’re an inspiration for sharing your unfiltered photos with us,” another said.

As well as receiving applause for her unedited snaps, fans raved about the cossie, which Martha told fans was from Palm Swimwear.

If you’re keen to recreate the look, the brand’s Talise Top will set you back $110 while the matching Talise Bottoms cost $95.

Martha, who posed wearing the bikini in her bathroom, set pulses racing with her selfies as many declared the photos too hot to handle.

“Hottest thing I’ve ever seen,” one fan stated.

“That body of yours is beyond (flame emojis) girl. Better than Kim K,” another said.

“You are just unreal!!!” someone else mused.

Martha is no stranger to causing a stir on social media, regularly posting risque images of her life with boyfriend Michael Brunelli who she met on the Channel 9 dating show.

Last month she shared a nude photo of them in bed, revealing the pair were eating a McDonald’s 70c cone.

While she had strategically placed a doona over her bottom half and used her right arm to cover her breasts – the racy snap still captured a lot of attention, much of which was people reminiscing about how cheap the sweet treat used to be “back in the day”.

A few weeks earlier she caused a stir over a nude snap taken in a bath that later turned out to be a promo shot for a new Sand&Sky beauty product.

Fans of the former make-up artist inundated her post with hundreds of positive comments describing the shot as “iconic” and “perfection”.

However, some were more intrigued by who the “lucky” person was behind the lens and more importantly, how the photo was taken given the seemingly high shot.

“Did you have a drone?” one fan asked, to which Martha revealed it was the work of Michael.
