EXCLUSIVE: Natalie Imbruglia, 48, strips down to a skimpy orange bikini and tiger-stripe swimwear as she parties on a boat with pals in Portofino
Natalie Imbruglia is enjoying some autumnal sun, setting sail in idyllic Portofino on Tuesday.
The Australian songstress, 48, was all aboard for a boat trip with a large group of friends and made the most of the hot temperatures by stripping down to skimpy swimwear.
The Torn singer showed off her incredible physique as she sunbathed in an orange halterneck bikini, which flashed a glimpse of her colourful floral stomach tattoo.
She added layered necklaces to glam up her look and showed off her natural beauty by going makeup-free.
Later, she cooled down with a dip in the ocean, changing into wild tiger-print bikini bottoms and a blue palm-tree adorned swim top.
Natalie looked on cloud nine as she sat amongst her friends with a drink in hand during the fun boat trip.

There were more celebrations last week as Natalie celebrated her son Max’s 4th birthday.
And The Torn hitmaker shared a rare photo with her young boy to Instagram to mark the special occasion.
The songstress welcomed Max via IVF in October 2019. She hasn’t publicly disclosed the identity of her child’s father.
In 2021, she told Stellar Magazine that she had always longed to be a mother.

‘Becoming a parent is the most incredible thing that’s ever happened to me. It’s something I’ve wanted to do since I was a little girl. It’s given me a sense of peace,’ Natalie told the publication.
However the Wrong Impression hitmaker went on to concede that rearing children ‘is not for everyone’.
‘There are stigmas out there for women that if they aren’t parents what does that mean for them?’ she said.
‘I’m also aware of the struggle a lot of women are still going through trying to attain that and what it feels like to be left behind.’
‘It’s important to acknowledge all the women out there, including the ones going, ‘Ugh, another mother talking about how happy they are.”

The former soap star said motherhood is ‘truly magical’ and has filled the void in her life.
‘Looking back I had lovely friends, had been married, a beautiful home and a career that I was proud of,’ she told Baby magazine.
