She joined the star-studded cast of Celebs Go Dating to find love.

And Jade Jones, 24, was riding the waves of fame when she frolicked in the sea at the Melia Llana Resort on her trip to Cape Verde for the reality series in recent weeks.

Famed for winning Britain's first taekwondo Olympic gold medal, it is no surprise the Celebs Go Dating hopeful showed off athletic figure in a zesty lemon swimsuit.

Jade was joined by a whole host of reality stars on the show including TOWIE's GC, Made In Chelsea's Ollie Locke and Brooklyn Beckham's ex Tallia Storm.

But the gold medalist proved she was happy in her own company when she splashed around in the choppy seas on her own.  

The award-winning athlete wore her long locks down to her waist in a mass of corkscrew curls which cascaded down her shoulders.

Jade kept the blazing sunshine out of her eyes with a pair of sunglasses and she accessorised with a golden necklace for a hint of sparkle.

On Tuesday night's episode of Celebs Go Dating, she was unimpressed when her date for the evening tried to win her over with his napkin crafts at the dinner table.

Of the experience, she tweeted: 'At least I know what origami is now #EDUCATINGJADE #Lifeexperiences.' (sic)

Her co-star and comedian pal London Hughes teased her on social media as she poked fun at Jade over the date nightmare.

She wrote: 'Sooo just woke up in bed with @JadeJones after our girly night out.... Turns out she talks in her sleep way more than she does on her dates #CelebsGoDating.' (sic)

Jade responded: 'That’s because you have more banter than a chicken napkin.' (sic) 

But viewers at home can only hope Jade will have more success on her quest for love on the reality series in the next few weeks.

Jade, who represents Great Britain for taekwondo, secured a gold medal in the 2012 Olympics and again at the next Olympics in 2016 for the women's 57 kg category.

She told the Daily Post it was a 'relief' to scoop the gold medal a second time during the Olympics 2016 in Rio, Brazil. 

At the time, she told the publication: 'To be honest this time around, it felt like a relief to win gold. When I won the first time, it was just pure excitement that I had done it.

'But this time, I knew I was the best and I wanted to show it, so it was a relief when I actually did it.'
