MasterChef: Poh Ling Yeow, 49, shares ’embarrassing’ bikini photo

MasterChef star Poh Ling Yeow is on vacation on Christmas Island.

And the 49-year-old chef revealed on Wednesday she was feeling under the weather after suffering a bout of seasickness.

She posted a photo on Instagram of herself laughing in a bikini as she lay on the sand feeling nauseous from her boat trip. 

Interestingly, a man’s tattooed arm was visible reaching out to Poh in the photo.

This man could possibly be a new love interest, after her separation from husband Jono Bennett in February last year.

Poh also shared another picture of herself in a black and white bikini exploring an ocean cave. 

It has been a busy month for Poh, who visited Barcelona before flying to Christmas Island.

She was in a sentimental mood as she bid farewell to the Spanish city.

‘Inspired to the brim and ready for home. Adios for now, Barcelona, you’ve been rad… but folks, let’s just pretend I’m still on holidays for a tad longer ’cause I still have so much beautiful travel content I want to share,’ she wrote on Instagram.

Poh, who found fame on MasterChef season one in 2009, split from her second husband Jono in February last year.

She was previously married to filmmaker Matt Phipps, before divorcing in 1999.

The exes have remained friends, however, and went into business together as co-owners of the Jamface Cafe in Adelaide.
