PADMA Lakshmi looked incredible in a plunging black bikini on her recent trip with her daughter.
The former Top Chef host, 54, traveled to Iceland with Krishna, 15, and lounged at the famous thermal spa, Blue Lagoon.

Padma appeared half her age as she kicked back with Krishna in the steamy blue waters.
“If you’re planning a trip this summer, Iceland is a great option! #Littlehands and I went over spring break, and there’s so much to see and do,” she wrote in the caption, referring to her sweet nickname for Krishna.
“You might not catch the northern lights this time of year, but at least it won’t be as cold!!!“
She also shared photos of the mother/daughter duo riding horses, watching a geyser, posing in front of a snow-topped mountain, visiting the Hallgrímskirkja church, and even catching the northern lights.
Fans were more impressed with Padma‘s beauty than the breathtaking Icelandic scenery.
“You look absolutely stunning!” one follower said.
“A beautiful person,” another chimed in.
“Padma is just turning back the clock!” chimed in a third.
MOVING ON
Padma appears to have more time for relaxation after quitting Top Chef after 20 seasons in 2023.
After 17 years, many of the cast and crew are like family to me and I will miss working alongside them dearly,” she said, adding that she planned to focus on her Hulu travel show.
“I feel it’s time to move on and need to make space for Taste the Nation, my books and other creative pursuits.”
Top Chef winner Kristen Kish took over as host.
After leaving the show, Padma has also focused on modeling and being a mom, of course.
Last summer, Padma celebrated Krishna’s graduation from middle school.
“I can’t believe my baby girl is off to high school after the summer,” Padma posted.
“I want to thank all of the teachers, educators, counselors, security and staff at the United Nations School for taking care of Krishna all these years.
“I’m so proud of Krishna and all she has achieved in her young, happy life. Special thanks to the theater department at UNIS and all the wonderful members of the parents association.
“I’ll miss you guys at the snack bar! As Littlehands would say… gurl, bye!”
Padma welcomed Krishna in 2010 with venture capitalist Adam Dell.
