Dannii Minogue looks stunning in new photoshoot

Dannii Minogue has had a tough year, first came the break-up of her relationship with long term partner and father of her child Kris Smith, quickly followed by the revelation she and Simon Cowell had a secret affair while she sat on the judging panel of X Factor.

Ready to move on, 40-year-old Dannii proves she’s still a yummy mummy in her latest shoot for InStyle Australia.

Having chopped off her hair last year to beat the heat Down Under, Dannii poses in a stunning photoshoot looking like a golden goddess in a white swimsuit.

She reclines against the luxurious white seats on a boat in Australia’s exclusive Hayman Island.

In another shot, Dannii reclines on a lounge in an emerald wrap dress, gazing out to sea.

She perfects the ultimate jetsetter look as she strides through shallow water from a water plane, carrying her stiletto heels and a Louis Vuitton travel case.

In the issue, Dannii discusses how her love of son Ethan, who turns two next month, has helped her through a difficult year.

In April, Dannii confirmed the rumours that she and partner Kris Smith has split, writing on Twitter: ‘It brings me great sadness to tell you that Kris and I have separated. We still care for each other and ask for privacy at this difficult time, in particular for our son Ethan who remains our number one priority.’

‘Life has been full of certainties and surprises, but even with the changes I know I am incredibly lucky, and wake up each day feeling blessed with my beautiful baby boy there,’ she tells InStyle. ‘When I tuck him into bed, I’ll hear this little voice yell out, “I love you more!”

Dannii adds that her little boy is already following in the her and sister Kylie’s footsteps, learning how to get a reaction from a captive audience.  ‘He knows if he says something with particular timing he can make you laugh, melt or whatever,’ she reveals. ‘I guess that’s the Minogue performer inside him!’
