Marnie Simpson hits back after being accused of editing her weight loss photos as she’s slammed by cruel trolls
MARNIE Simpson has hit back after being accused by trolls of "editing" her weight loss photos.
The Geordie Shore star, 30, showed off her incredible results and admitted she was feeling more confident in herself.
Marnie shared a before and after snap in a strappy bikini top and bottoms.
Showing off her transformation, she told fans: "SO happy to be BACK to the old me! Honestly feeling SO much more confident in myself - and my clothes!
Not sayin you have to be a certain size to feel ok, but for me the weight gain was a reflection of not being in a very happy place.
"Can’t tell you how much better I feel now guys.

"So if you’re thinking of starting getting back to the old you in 2023 we’ve got a great offer on my diet and fitness plan."
However, sceptical fans were quick to comment on the body transformation and claimed the photo had been edited and clever camera angles used.
One wrote: "Anybody else notice how tight the strings pulled across the back on first photo compared to the second one ??? Or is that just me?"
Another posted: "Have to say though the before and after are not truly reflective. The stance is different and not flattering in the first picture the lighting the tan... It is a bit of a con really. While I'm sure the results are true the pictures are misleading in my opinion."

"Did the skirting board shrink also or just awful photoshop," a third said.
Someone else said: "What’s up with your skirting boards in the second photo?"
Another commented: "Can tell it’s photoshopped just by the outline of her inner legs."
"Soo much filtering on the legs, we're not fools, looked better before anyhow,"
However, Marnie responded to the haters, insisting nothing had been done to alter the snaps.
She posted a video to her instagram stories with Casey stood in the same position she was when she took the original shot.
Marnie said: "So guys everyone is talking about my recent picture and the skirting boards. so I was stranding here when I took the picture, I am getting Casey to be an example and as you can see the skirting board looks the same."
She then revealed why the optical illusion happened, adding: "It's because there is a difference in the wall which I was covering with my leg."
She then shared her snap side by side one of Casey, with the caption: "As you can see it's the wall, bet this really gets all the haters going. SOZ NOT SOZ".
And her fans were quick to shower her with praise for all her hard work.
One wrote: "You go girl!!! I know the feeling after having a baby not feeling like yourself anymore. Don’t listen to any haters babe.
Another posted: "I don’t understand why people have mentioned the skirting board? Why can’t people just be happy for others and what they achieve."
Marnie recently showed off her two-and-a-half stone weight loss in a bikini – and fans couldn’t believe how great she looked.
Mum-of-two Marnie told her fans: “Turned it around guys! Was in quite a dark place with my confidence a few months ago feeling like I’d lost myself. Like the old Marnie had disappeared. With being a mum, all these health problems, I got really down tbh.
“I gained A LOT of weight with comfort eating and the PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) and thought that was it. I was always going to feel a bit.
“But I’m feeling myself again after losing 2 and 1/2 Stone and getting back into exercise and eating better. Not even better - just better portion control.”
