Patsy Palmer relaxes in a bikini on family holiday in Ibiza

Patsy Palmer is currently enjoying a family holiday in Ibiza. And the EastEnders actress looked happy and relaxed as she strolled along the beach in her Vix bikini with her husband, Richard Merkell.

The couple were joined by their three children, Emilia, Benton and three-year-old Bertie, but Patsy's eldest son Charley, 21, sat the holiday out.

And she's obviously keen to protect her body from the rays. Patsy tweeted on Sunday: "I'm actually very careful not ever to burn.. Strange.. I use @ultrasunuk which is brilliant so I don't burn."

But it's not all just about relaxing with the family. Patsy is an experienced DJ, and has a regular spot at Sacca nightclub, as well as taking to the decks at Ibiza Rocks, reports the Daily Mail.

And a source told the Mirror: "Patsy loves going to Ibiza. It's a chance to get away and let her hair down. She spends time with the kids and has fun DJing."

Indeed, Patsy is a regular on the island, visiting the White Isle with her family at exactly the same time last year.
