Elizabeth Hurley is 'still a goddess' as she rocks her favourite bikini at 54

Elizabeth Hurley isn’t letting the return of autumn cramp her bikini style.

The 54-year-old actress and beachwear designer posted her first swimsuit photo in nearly a month, treating Instagram followers to a shot starring her favourite go-to two-piece.

The British beauty, who has one son, Damian Hurley, 16, flashed her flat abs in the picture, which comes just days after she admitted that she doesn’t go to the gym, preferring to stay “very active” by gardening.

That’s some green thumb, according to her awestruck fans, many of whom praised her as “beautiful” and “sexy”.

“Where do you hide your fountain of youth?” read one comment.

“You ain’t lost it!!!” another commenter raved. “Fine wine.”

“Still looking stunning,” a fan added.

“Do you even age?” read another comment, while a follower pronounced her “still a goddess.”

A further comment read: “Oh my God Elizabeth you are one uniquely beautiful woman.”

Elsewhere, Hurley has been busy promoting October’s Breast Cancer Awareness Month as the ambassador for Estée Lauder Companies.

Earlier this month, she said that using the skincare line’s products had helped her to maintain her youthful appearance.

“I think I’ve been lucky because I’ve been with the company for 24 years so I’ve had really good products at my fingertips — and I use a lot of them,” joked Hurley. “My most favourite product of all has always been Advanced Night Repair, which is a serum that I was given my first bottle of when I first joined the company in 1995, and I’ve used it religiously twice a day ever since.”
