Maybe stick to the suits, Mr Corden: Comic lets it all hang out as he and fiancée Julia head to Miami beach after his Tony win

He shed five stone ahead of his award-winning appearance on Broadway.

But James Corden would probably agree that he’s got a few more pounds to go before any  Hollywood action movie roles come his way.

While his energetic performance in slapstick farce One Man, Two Guvnors has helped him lose almost a quarter of his weight, Corden’s swimming shorts still couldn’t quite contain his ample bulk as he splashed in the surf in Miami.

The 33-year-old had appeared far more svelte as he collected his Tony award in New York last week, perhaps proving the benefits of a good bit of suit tailoring.

He seemed happy enough to let it all hang out on Monday, however, as he enjoyed a relaxing day on the beach with his fiancee, Julia Carey.

Miss Carey, mother to their one-year-old son Max, looked slender in a blue striped bikini.

With temperatures soaring on the sand, the couple headed into the Atlantic to cool off and splashed about in the surf.

The betrothed pair then headed back to their loungers with James, 33, sensibly covering himself up from the scorching sun with a T-shirt as they lay back and chatted away.

One Man, Two Guvnors transferred to New York from the West End in April and became an instant hit, landing Corden the Tony award for best actor.

Throwing himself across the stage night after night has helped him drop from 21 to 16 stone, but the Gavin & Stacey star still has a long way to go before he can call himself svelte.

Last week he said he was still ‘trying very hard to not eat rubbish’ – but admitted he couldn’t always resist American burger joints.

The comedian put board-treading legends such as Philip Seymour Hoffman, James Earl Jones, Frank Langella and John Lithgow to scoop the Best Actor gong for his show One Man, Two Guvnors.

He told his fellow nominees: 'To be on a list with you was enough. I am overwhelmed.'

And choking back tears he also thanked Julia and said: 'My girlfriend Julia gave birth to our son like, five days before we started rehearsals.

'She's my baby mama, and I can't wait to marry her. Seriously, I would not be holding this if it wasn't for her.'

He tearfully added: 'She makes me say "us" instead of "I" and "we" instead of "me", and I love her. Thank you very much.'

And his success meant he was soon snapped up and he confirmed this week that he will be joining the cast of the upcoming movie Can a Song Save Your Life? alongside Keira Knightley, Mark Ruffalo, Hailee Steinfeld and Adam Levine.

It tells the story of a couple who move to New York to pursue their passion for music, but he dumps her and she is discovered in a bat by a record producer.

James is also set to star and co-write the upcoming film One Chance, a biopic about Britain's Got Talent winner Paul Potts.

James has lost a ton of weight and what you see is the skin left behind. How would you like photographers following your every move when you are on holiday!. Maybe his girl sees him for what he is - an absolutely fabulous person. Granted, he's no Tom Hardy but neither are you - don't be so nasty.
