In the series, Hannah portrayed the character of a teen mum named Chantelle Garvey.
Posing with a pushchair, in front of the iconic hotel, Hannah captioned the photo: “It’s EXACTLY THE SAME! Just back with a different baby this time…”
One fan commented: “Wow can’t believe it’s you !! You sure grew up to be one stunning lady after I used to watch you all the time..”
Another added: “Great pick and congrats on the baby, miss that show.”
A third penned: “You look so different to when you were on Benidorm. I get you were younger but still…
“Looking good and no baby Coolio this time. Wonder what that baby is doing now hes all grown up??”
A fourth wrote: “Such a shame the series ended, I loved watching the program.”
Hannah and her husband, Nathan Hobley-Smith, share one child, Beatrice Hobley-Smith, one.
Benidorm first aired in February 2007 and ran until May 2018.
Hannah previously paid tribute to the show to mark its 15th anniversary, posting a picture of the Garveys walking through the Spanish resort with a cameraman in front of them.
She wrote alongside it: “Yesterday marked 15 years since the first episode of Benidorm aired… The show that changed my life!”
