Maya Jama sent temperatures soaring as she put her modelling skills to use in a Sunday Instagram video, after the Mail On Sunday revealed ITV axed her show, Walk The Line.
Brushing off her disappointment, the newly-engaged presenter, 27, posed up a storm in a plunging black leather suit which flashed her cleavage.
She flicked her chunky black braid behind her shoulders as she smouldered for the camera, before turning around and continuing to set pulses racing.

Walk The Line’s audiences plunged to as low as 1.8 million during its six-night run last month. ITV chiefs are understood to have ruled out a second series.
Creator Simon Cowell is unlikely to be surprised given that underwhelmed executives decided to air the show across the week, rather than in the coveted Saturday night slot he had dominated since Pop Idol launched in 2001.
The 62-year-old – who enjoyed huge success with The X Factor, which ran for 15 series until 2018 – was allegedly so infuriated that he decided not to sit on the judging panel and was replaced by Gary Barlow.

An insider said: ‘After The X Factor ended, Walk The Line was the show Simon hoped would save him. Alas, that wasn’t to be, and it won’t be back.’
The decision marks the end of an era in which Cowell could virtually name his price to TV executives eager for big ratings.
Earlier this month, Simon – who recently announced his engagement to long-term partner Lauren Silverman – wound down his firm, Syco Entertainment, and laid off its staff.
He had already closed down the music arm of his empire and has increasingly been overshadowed by Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly.

Their latest show, Limitless Win, is attracting five million viewers and sources say the duo are producing two new formats they hope to sell to ITV, although they will not star in them.
‘They are turning from presenting to creating shows,’ said one source.
‘They have some exciting stuff up their sleeves.’
Simon is, however, currently filming the next series of Britain’s Got Talent for ITV, which is presented by Ant and Dec.
An ITV spokesman said: ‘No decisions have been made on the future of the series at this point.’

Maya got engaged to basketball player Ben Simmons earlier this month, when he reportedly popped the question over the festive period after a whirlwind seven-month romance.
TV star Maya spent Christmas at Ben’s £3.7million mansion in Moorestown, New Jersey and it’s rumoured she will relocate there following the proposal.
Maya recently flashed a huge diamond ring while out and about, which experts have valued at £600k.
She showed off the emerald-cut diamond ring as she grabbed some drinks with her new fiancé after a couple’s gym session.
