The British actress shared fun-filled photos of her time learning scripts and exercising, as well as socializing with friends.

In a post from earlier this month, Lily covered up her bikini with a semi-sheer minidress as she enjoyed the picturesque sunset before changing into a deep white look to head out to dinner during the trip.

Clearly making the most of her Australian summer, Lily captioned her post: ‘Winter, I’m not ready for you yet.’

Enjoying the beach Down Under once again, Lily shared a gallery of bikini photos on Instagram, saying she had “never felt better” as she was having the time of her life.

Father-daughter duo Naomi (Lily) and Ray (Pierce Brosnan) run a chalet in the Dolomites.

According to the official synopsis, during a weekend trip with a billionaire’s son, they become the targets of a gang of kidnappers.

Earlier this year, Lily and her Swiped co-star Pierson looked closer than ever while strolling through New York’s Central Park.

The couple were seen chatting happily as they hiked in the last of the summer sun, stopping to enjoy a drink and sunbathe on a rocky platform.

This wasn’t the first time the actors were seen together in September, as they also went out for a stroll in the Big Apple the week before.

Pierson won the hearts of many with her role in Netflix’s new romantic comedy The Wrong Paris.

He first rose to fame in 2015 with his role as Brooks Wentworth III on Disney Channel’s Jessie, and got his big break with his role as Thomas Forrester in The Bold and the Beautiful.
