She was in a pinup in the 1980s TV shows Saved By The Bell and Beverly Hills, 90210.
And now Tiffani Thiessen has proved that she still looks just as good as she shared a photo of herself in a black swimsuit while by some rocks on the beach to Instagram.
In her caption the 48-year-old brunette beauty humorously said, ‘When you get caught trying to find a place to pee.’
Hot stuff on the shore: Tiffani Thiessen has proved that she still looks just as good as she shared a photo of herself in a swimsuit while by some rocks on the beach to Instagram
Tee hee: In her caption the 48-year-old brunette beauty humorously said, ‘When you get caught trying to find a place to pee’
Tiffani had on a dark one piece suit that showed off a small waistline and toned legs as she wore her hair down over her shoulders.
The star held onto a straw hat as she modeled aviator sunglasses.
In 2020 she shared a swimsuit photo when she was conducting ‘research’ as she embarked on a ‘character study’ ahead of the Saved By The Bell reboot.
The star dug up an old swimsuit picture of herself from the original run of the sitcom, which ran from 1989 to 1993.
Her big hit: (l-r) Elizabeth Berkley as Jessie Spano, Mario Lopez as A.C. Slater, Thiessen as Kelly Kapowski, Dustin Diamond as Screech Powers, Mark-Paul Gosselaar as Zack Morris, Lark Voorhies as Lisa Turtle
Looking back: Thiessen had her own way of conducting ‘research’ in 2020 ahead of the Saved By The Bell reboot, posting a swimsuit snap from the original series to her Instagram
Tiffani captioned the picture: ‘#tbt #research #characterstudy,’ adding a heart emoji.
During the show her character worked as a lifeguard and the swimsuit look Tiffani posted to Instagram was the uniform for that job.
The reboot lasted only two seasons and was canceled this year.
Last year the star, who now hosts MTV’s Deliciousness, dished to Hollywood Life that she thinks the key to staying in shape is to not ‘panic’ if you gain a little weight.
‘What is panic going to do?’ she asked. ‘They say stress actually adds pounds, so if I stress it’s going to be worse, right?’
She added that she ‘always tries to live her life in balance,’ which includes the way she eats. She shared: ‘I’ve never been one to go extreme either way [with dieting].
‘I’ve never been one to eat bad all the time and I’ve never been one to always be healthy. I’m like an 80-20 per cent kind of person.
‘I try to be because I love food. I love to cook… Eating a salad three times a day is not always what I want to do. So, I think it’s all about balance.’
Thiessen was born in Long Beach, California and participated in beauty pageants at a young age. She was crowned Miss Junior America in 1987.

In March 2020, it was announced that Thiessen would join the cast of the Saved by the Bell sequel series, reprising her role as Kelly Kapowski.
The reboot debuted in November 2020 and was canceled this year.
