Candice Swanepoel slips into animal print bikini

Victoria’s Secret beauty Candice Swanepoel put on a sizzling display in Brazil on Friday.

The mother-of-one – who welcomed son Anacã just over a year ago – showed off her svelte physique as she indulged in some beach time on the island of Fernando De Noronha.

The 29-year-old South African-born model cooled off in the ocean sporting a skimpy animal print bikini.

Putting on quite a show as she took a dip in the ocean, the Vogue beauty adjusted her briefs to avoid a wardrobe malfunction. 

She flaunted her long bronze limbs as she hopped out of the water and walked back up the beach to dry off. 

Back on dry land Candice soaked up some rays alongside her fiance Hermann Nicoli and another pal.

She made sure to shade her face with a large floppy straw hat and stylish sunglasses. 

Hermann is a Brazilian male model who Candice met in Paris when she was just 17.

The longtime couple announced their engagement in 2015. 

Last month Candice revealed her delight at opening this year’s Victoria’s Secret show in Shanghai, China.

She sat out the 2016 lingerie extravaganza for the first time since she became one of the brand’s Angels in 2010 because she’d given birth to her son just weeks before.

Speaking shortly before the show at the Mercedes Benz Arena, she told Vogue.com: ‘I’m opening this year so which [in itself] is a big ‘I’m back’ moment so I’m looking forward to that.’ 

Candice – who wore two red ensembles in the show, including one teamed with wings which looked like flames – admitted it was ‘very different’ watching her pals on the runway from her home last year, rather than being backstage.

She said: ‘I watched the show from my couch in Brazil which was a very different experience.

‘I definitely missed it, so of course I’m excited to be back.’ 

And the South African model – who has Anaca with Brazilian model fiance Hermann Nicol – had a great time exploring Shanghai with her family, as well as hanging out and catching up with her model friends.

She said: ‘I love being anywhere that has a strong culture and it’s really fun for us to explore and learn a lot about the Chinese while being a guest in their country.

‘The way the fans are is different from other places-they’re always so polite and welcoming.

‘The whole thing has been great. We got to laugh and hang out in the midst of a lot of nerves and excitement it’s nice to just enjoy the moment.’
