Shona McGarty shows off her football skills
Shona McGarty is currently enjoying a girls’ trip to Ibiza and has been showing off her football “skills” on the beach, amid rumours she is dating her co-star Max Bowden.
The actress, who plays Whitney Dean on the BBC show, took to Instagram on Wednesday to share a video of herself kicking a ball into the air. She then turned and danced in front of the camera.
The soap star, 30, wore a bright yellow bikini which showed off her many tattoos. She also opted for a floral headband and a pair of dark sunglasses.
Shona captioned the video: “Skills…” and added a smirking face emoji.
Fans were quick to comment on the post, with many saying she should play for England.

Another wrote: “Never knew u can play football,” with a third fan commenting: “Lionesses beware!”
Shona has recently been surrounded by rumours she is dating her co-star Max, who plays Ben Mitchell, after the pair grew close following Max’s split from his girlfriend earlier this year.
Back in June, 27-year-old Max was pictured leaving Shona’s Welwyn Garden City home. Last week, they ventured to House & Classics Festival in Hertfordshire, with Shona sharing a series of pictures and videos from the day.

The pictures including the pair posing for a photo, with Max hooking his arm around Shona’s shoulders. The pair also enjoyed dancing together at the festival.
Neither have yet addressed the romance rumours, though this is the first time that they have taken photos together in public.
Max and Shona’s representatives have been approached by The Mirror for comment.
The rumours come after Max’s ex-girlfriend Roisin Buckle claimed he hadn’t spoken to her in six weeks.

She said on the podcast One Mum and A Baby : “At the time, I was all over the place, crying, not being able to look at a future without him by my side.
“There was hope we may co-parent but I haven’t heard from him in about six weeks now so I’m not really sure where that stands.
“The door is open and I would never stop him seeing his son so hopefully we hear from him.”
