In the post, Patricia, 66, was joined by her friends in a huge bathtub in a hotel room.

The film star and her pals all went completely naked in the photo, bar some jewelry.

Patrica – who played Debra Barone in Everybody Loves Raymond – sat on the left of the group of five.

She smiled happily, with just some bubbles and her raised knees protecting her modesty.

“It was so nice of the room service waiter to take a group photo of me and my Christian sisters!

“…(just kidding – this was going to be the cover of a book called The Naked Prayer Group but I never finished it!) #NationalBestFriendsDay,” she wrote alongside the jaw-dropping image.

“Love how Patricia is her own person. She doesn’t worry about what other people think. She is a role model,” one person wrote in the comment section.

Other fans weren’t as impressed with the shot, and slammed Patricia’s post.

“Too close for comfort! Lol,” said one.

“I don’t understand the advantage of being naked with 4 other women,” wrote a second social media user.

It’s really not fair, the image we present to the world. Women shouldn’t look at people they see on TV and compare themselves to them, because you aren’t seeing those women the way they really are.

“Very Weird?? Just sayin!!” wrote a third.

“I have to agree. Very weird,” another agreed.

“This is creepy? Why would Christian women be nude together?” another commenter slammed, referring to Patricia’s caption.

NIP AND TUCK

Despite criticism from fans, Patricia happily showed off her body with her pals.

The star has previously been open about plastic surgery, and admitted she put a lot of effort into her appearance.

Patricia has four sons with actor David Hunt, and got a tummy tuck and breast reduction after giving birth and breastfeeding.

“Vanity. I mean it. Vanity. I had four C-sections and my stomach looked like the map of the world.

“My breasts were hanging down to here from breastfeeding those babies, and my nipples were like platters. I wanted to fit into the gowns that I finally got to wear,” she told People in 2003.

“It’s better to be honest if you can. There is a lot in Hollywood that is not as it seems. When I go out to an important public appearance, I have a lot of help to look the way I do. There is someone to do my makeup, someone to do my hair, a stylist to help me find just the right clothes.

“It’s really not fair, the image we present to the world. Women shouldn’t look at people they see on TV and compare themselves to them, because you aren’t seeing those women the way they really are.”
