EASTENDERS' Max Bowden stripped topless and nose-dived into a paddling pool as he battled the UK heatwave today. The 25-year-old star was filmed by girlfriend Danielle as they made the most of the scorching weather in their back garden.
Taking to her Instagram Story, Danielle first showed off their new kid-size paddling pool, adorned with cartoon fish and sea creatures.
The next post showed Max in a pair of red trunks as he attempts to dive into the shallow water. He promptly nose-dives, bumping his head on the side of the pool, but is all-smiles as he shakes the water out of his hair while Danielle zooms in the camera.
