Keely Hodgkinson stuns in revealing dress as Team GB hero skips Olympics 2024 closing ceremony for Marbella holiday

TEAM GB’s athletics golden girl Keely Hodgkinson stunned in Marbella as she skips the Olympic closing ceremony.

The 22-year-old star has earned a well deserved break after cruising to 800m victory in Paris, as she one-upped the silver she picked up in Tokyo three years ago.

Fresh from achieving her Olympic dream, Hodgkinson was spotted wearing a show-stopping cut-out black dress in Puerto Banus.

The athletics star posed in a half backless fitted bodice outfit with a white trim as the world bids farewell to the 2024 Olympics.

Hodgkinson swapped her running shoes for a pair of luxury heels as she dined out with family and friends at the lavish ‘Clubhouse Marbella’.

The Manchester-born star was spotted sunning herself on a glamorous yacht in a green biknini and toasting her Paris victory with a glass of sangria on Saturday.

Meanwhile, she’ll be missing the Olympic closing ceremony in Paris set to begin at 20:00 BST on Sunday night.

The Olympic champ won’t get to see Billie Eilish perform or Tom Cruise ‘s rumoured abseiling as Paris hands over to next hosts – Los Angeles.

Bryony Page and Alex Yee have been named as Great Britain’s flagbearers at the final showpiece.

Elsewhere experts reckon Hodgkinson should be getting used to the high life — with her endorsements and other earnings certain to rocket.

Brands guru Marcel Knobil, who has worked with Coca Cola and Yamaha, said: “Her estimated earnings prior to these Olympics were around £250,000 thanks to the likes of Nike and Omega.

“Now, thanks to her exceptional talent, golden success and attractive personality and looks — Keely can look forward to earnings way beyond £2million next year alone.”

Hodgkinson won the 800m women’s final to claim Team GB’s sole gold medal in athletics at Paris 2024.

Her winning time was 1:56.71, almost a full second faster than silver medallist Ethiopian Tsige Duguma.

It culminated in an emotional victory at the Stade de France in front of 70,000 fans on Monday.

Her glory earned her nothing from Team GB but she will get £39,000 from World Athletics .

She previously said she would treat herself to a gold Cartier ring and a Porsche .

She said: “My parents and me, what we’d love is just some quality time together. I don’t get to see them very often. That is enough for me to be honest.”

Opening up on her plans as a gold medal winner , she said post-race: “I hope to have a party soon. I haven’t been on a family holiday since 2019.

“I don’t live at home any more. They have gone out to Marbella for a holiday so I’m going to go and join them and the rest of the family for a few days.

“I’m not really a cocktail drinker. I’m actually more of a rose wine girl.

“I will be on the beach at some point, having a nice glass of rose with my medal on.”
