Sapphire Elia perfects bikini curve in Ayia Napa, Cyprus
The soap star, who played Mia Macey on the ITV1 show, was spotted splashing around with her boyfriend in Cyprus.
The London-born 24-year-old is of Greek-Cyrpriot heritage and was keen to get back to her Mediterranean roots to soak up the sunshine.

She was joined by her breakdancer beau Michael Worwood, 28, during the romantic getaway in Ayia Napa.
The couple, who both have family in Cryprus, met on the island last year and were instantly attracted to each other.
And it’s no surprise, as they both showed off incredible beach bodies as they frolicked by the sea.
Sapphire’s final appearance on Emmerdale was watched by more than six million viewers.
She had only joined the cast last year but announced in May that she would be leaving.

Elia is said to have some other projects lined up to move onto though and isn’t planning on being off work for long.
She told the Daily Star Sunday: ‘It’s onwards and upwards. I’ll keep you posted on what’s to come.’
Sapphire already has one role confirmed, which is in this year’s Aladdin pantomime at the Hazlitt Theatre in Maidstone, Kent, in which she’ll play Princess Jasmine.
The actress and former model is also well known for her role in musical drama Britannia High.

She was also a young Cosette in Trevor Nunn’s theatre production of Les Miserables and has also had roles in Dream Team and The Bill.
