The Only Way is Essex star said: “I’m gonna step on the scales, ok so 12 stone, fantastic. It’s gotta go.

“So my goal is to lose three stone."

She responded to trolls when an image of her wearing an unflattering dress went online and said: "I filmed this before I was in the press being trolled over that dress but It was a very sad time for me and I think it’s only fair to show how I was feeling as a lot of us struggle with mental health in different ways."
