The star’s snaps will grace the cover of V magazine’s spring issue, which also features an interview with the scantily clad star.

And it seems Brit is more than a little excited about the new issue hitting stores. The star took to Twitter to share the cover with fans yesterday, writing: 'I HEART Mario Testino and V Magazine. Mag comes out tomorrow.'
