Julianne Hough displays her washboard abs in funky crop top and flares as she frolics on a yacht on the Amalfi Coast

Julianne Hough was in a playful mood as she lapped up the sun on holiday on Italy’s Amalfi Coast.

The Dancing With The Stars veteran, 32, displayed her washboard abs as she busted some moves in a colourful vintage-style crop top and matching trousers.

In pictures posted to Instagram on Thursday, the dancer could be seen frolicking on a yacht as she jumped up onto the plush seating.

She protected herself from the strong rays wearing a straw Christian Dior hat as the vessel bobbed on the Tyrrhenian Sea.

Her 70s-inspired ensemble left her midriff on show, displaying her impressively toned abs.

In one picture the US star, whose dashing brother Derek Hough is also a dancer, could be seen hanging on to the roof of the boat as she struck a pose.

Julianne, who just a few weeks ago was holidaying in Costa Rica, has spent at least part of her Italian excursion at the exclusive La Conca Del Sogno hotel in Capri.

The star has kept her fans up to date while on her travels, sharing snaps of herself doing a handstand while on a boat and checking out the fruit on a stall she discovered on a clifftop in Positano. 

Her latest sighting comes not long after her niece Star reportedly posted a since-deleted Tik Tok video alleging: ‘My aunt has slept with Leonardo DiCaprio.’

Star is said to have added: ‘Apparently, he’s not good in bed, though,’ according to a Fox News report about the video. 

Back in 2013 a Star magazine report alleged that Julianne and Leo ‘hooked up’ at Coachella but neither of them has ever confirmed as much.

‘They flirted up a storm. They were putting their hands all over each other. At one point he whispered something in her ear and gave her a quick kiss on the neck. They were so into each other, the ignored everyone around them,’ a source claimed.

Her outing to Italy comes eight months after she filed for divorce from her husband Brooks Laich who rose to fame as an ice hockey forward. 

Julianne and Brooks announced their separation last May and she finally made the divorce filing at the beginning of November.

They had been beset by rumors of marital problems ever since they went into lockdown separately amid the coronavirus pandemic.
