Feeling shy: Jodi Albert gets on her paddle board in denim shorts and a baggy black top


Usually it's the wives of pop stars flaunting their beach bodies as they holiday in sunny climes.

But Westlife singer Mark Feehily's boyfriend Kevin McDaid, 26, gave ex-Hollyoaks babe Jodi Albert a run for her money.


Mark and Kevin, who was a member of the now defunct boy band V, have been dating since January 2005 and last January they announced their engagement.

The pair strolled on the beach before deciding to take to the waters for some sporty fun with their partners.

The former Hollyoaks star seemed to be very body-conscious as she took to a paddle board in Barbados earlier this week.

While most people enjoying some water sports on holiday would wear a swimsuit or even a two-piece, Albert, 27, was snapped taking to the Caribbean waves in denim shorts and a baggy black top.

It made a change to see the pretty actress come over all shy as she has never been shy about showing off her lovely figure before.

All four of them decided to cool off from the hot sun in the water, with Jodi, Kian and Kevin all taking a paddle board to the waves.

And Jodi wasn't the only one to cover up as her husband of almost two years also decided not to bear his body.

The shy singer stayed under wraps in long surfer shorts and a black t-shirt as he tried his hand at paddle boarding.

And he looked as though he'd failed to stay on top of the board as he went out on it dry but was then snapped looking soaked through as his clothes clung to him.

Kevin - who wasn't at all shy in his tiny shorts that showed off his muscular frame - looked like a natural however as he sailed past his friends and went to join his fiancé who was seated in a canoe.

The two men chatted to each other and touched their oars together as they bobbed on the water. But later on, Mark had to be rescued by his long-term partner after his canoe capsized.

The pop star was left bobbing up and down in the sea after falling out of his boat as he and Kevin took to the waves.

Mark sailed out inside a red canoe and looked as though he was having a great time until he fell into the water.

Watched by Kevin and Jodi, who were laughing and chatting in the surf before Kevin waded in to help his partner out of the water and on to his board.

Jodi - who is best known for her former role as Debbie Dean in Hollyoaks - and Kian married in Barbados in May 2009 after dating for three years.

Westlife are planning a new chart attack this year after their last single Safe debuted on the UK Singles Chart on 21 November 2010 at number 10, the group's lowest charting single to date.

But speaking to the Daily Star recently, the band, who appeared on last year's X Factor, said: 'The next 12 months are going to be very interesting and exciting in the Westlife camp."

"The Westlife formula has to change and we want to do things differently.'
