Explaining how much the trip means to her, Martine said: "Me & my shadow are sending you love from the beach! I can’t tell you how much I’m appreciating this trip! Jack co-manages me (As well as doing his main job of being a songwriter and producer! - I know... it’s a madhouse) and so we are together a lot but we work together loads!

"Having time to rest and play and to simply enjoy our bubba boy now is amazing! I hope you are all well! Have we got good weather in the UK soon? Hope so! #qualitytime #holiday #family #rest #hurrah."

Martine revealed earlier this week that it was her first two-week trip abroad with Jack in a decade and a half - and she's been loving every minute of it.

The former EastEnders star has been looking lovely all holiday

We love Martine's beach cover-up – a chic patterned kaftan can elevate any look and take you from sun lounger to the bar with minimal effort. If you're lucky enough to get away this summer, this tropical Boohoo number is a total steal.

While Martine is actually in her mystery exotic location to take part in a shoot, the Love Actually star has been making the most of her downtime and showcasing plenty of stylish looks.
