With a black, cropped bra-style top and a sheer skirt, her outfit left little to the imagination.
Sarah showed off her ripped, rock-hard abs and appeared relaxed and carefree as she partied with friends at Middle Eastern-inspired shisha bar and restaurant, Habbibibi.
She opted for a transparent decoration small skirt, adorned with black and silver platform heels that showed off her long legs.
The soap star has credited a toned figure to her love of pole dancing.
Sarah first became known for playing the role of Mandy Richardson Hollyoaksthe British soap opera Opera which covers a wide range of ‘taboo’ topics.
She first appeared on the weekday show in 1996 and was reportedly asked to leave in 2021 after bosses argued her content on adult subscription site OnlyFans was also taboo and did not resonate with the soap’s audience.
Sarah declined to give up her account on the app, which allows users to monetize their work by posting content behind a paywall behind a monthly membership.
She previously said: “That’s what this is about: having control, choosing empowerment.”
However, after leaving the hit soap, she admitted the show had left her in ‘financial trouble’.
Speaking about her decision to join the controversial 18+ network, Sarah told The Sun she was “taking back control”.
Still, she admitted that some of her soap fans might find it “shocking.”
Leigh-born Sarah told us: “I’m just moving my sexier, racier images to another platform.
“This is a decision I have thought long and hard about, not one I made lightly or on a whim. It’s about taking back control, about empowerment and trust and about having complete power over my choices.
“I love doing photo shoots, I always will, that’s how I got into the acting industry.
“At the age of 12 I decided I wanted to be a model and signed up for a modeling course, started working at an agency and had my first professional shoot and I was hooked.
“I got my first TV audition and the rest is history.
“Since I was 17, I’ve been lucky enough to travel to some amazing places for photo shoots.
“That being said, I never felt in control, either over the content or the finances.”
It was later announced that she had left Hollyoaks in a dispute with executives.
At the time, soap bosses said they had failed to “reach a solution”.
