Published 21st Oct 2015

Strictly Come Dancing star Kristina Rihanoff has undergone a stunning makeover as Bond girl Honey Ryder.

Recreating Ursula Andress’ legendary beach scene in the 1962 film Dr No, starring Sean Connery as James Bond, Kristina is pictured in a white bikini and clutching a huge seashell.

Enthusing about the Closer Magazine shoot, 38-year-old Kristina said: “Bond girls are so sexy – and just as glamorous as Strictly stars! As a dancer, it’s important for me to keep my body in good shape.

“Aside from dancing, I go to yoga for meditation and also hit the gym for cardio. I’m not the biggest gym bunny, but I need to look good in my Strictly costumes!

“I’m a woman, so naturally I have things I’m insecure about. I always wanted to be taller but as a dancer, it’s good to be a petite build (Kristina is 5ft 3). As I’ve got older, my confidence in my body has grown.

“I love my small waist – and I love ’50s-style outfits that give me an hourglass shape. I make the most of the curves I have.”

Kristina, who is dating her former Strictly dancing partner Ben Cohen, was eliminated from this year’s Strictly Come Dancing series alongside Daniel O’Donnell last Sunday.

This week’s Closer is on sale now.

Kristina’s book Dancing Out Of Darkness: My Story (£17.99, John Blake Publishing) is out now
