The tiny top revealed her eye-popping cleavage and washboard abs while a pair of matching bottoms drew the eye to her honed legs.

Elisabetta wore her tresses slicked back from her face while letting her natural beauty take centre-stage by going make-up free.

The star looked in great spirits as she paddled with her dog before climbing aboard a boat and soaking up the sun. 

Elisabetta’s dating history includes footballers Christian ‘Bobo’ Vieri and Reginaldo Ferreira Da Silva, as well as The Pursuit Of Happyness director Gabriele Muccino.

She famously had a two-year relationship with George Clooney, whom she told Entertainment Tonight was ‘better than plastic surgery!’ for keeping her youthful.

They split in June 2011 a month after George’s 50th birthday, saying jointly: ‘It’s very difficult and very personal and hope everyone can respect our privacy.’   

Elisabetta married one Brian Perri in her native Sardinian province of Sassari in September 2014, two weeks before George’s Venetian wedding to Amal Alamuddin.

A year after their wedding Elisabetta welcomed her firstborn daughter Skyler, whom she shared a sweet Instagram snap of back in April.

In the photograph Elisabetta kissed her daughter while lifting her off her feet and hugging her against the fridge.

‘How much do I love you and how lucky am I to have you with me always?’ she began her Instagram caption in Italian.

‘She continued in a combination of English and Italian: ‘Just feeling blessed to have you everyday with us amore mio grande,’ adding a heart emoji.
