What is Lily's relationship like with her dad Phil Collins?

In March 2017 Lily penned an emotional letter to her rocker father Phil, forgiving him for "not being the dad I expected".

The actress is one of the ex-Genesis star's five children.

Lily, Phil's middle child, claims that "many of my deepest insecurities stem from these issues with my dad", including her teenage anorexia.

Her open letter to the Another Day In Paradise singer was taken from her debut book, Unfiltered: No Shame, No Regrets, Just Me, which was aimed at helping teen girls express themselves and deal with their own personal problems.

Did Lily Collins have anorexia?

Lily admitted she was "nervous" to lose weight and play an anorexia sufferer in Netflix's 2018 film To The Bone, after previously battling an eating disorder.

In a candid chat on the Lorraine show, Lily admitted her role of Ellen in the movie meant she was closely supervised during filming.

Lily was candid about her previous battle with eating disorders when quizzed by host Lorraine Kelly.

She said: "It's the first feature film that has ever been done about an eating disorder and I feel so proud to be a part of it.

"I have been very vocal in the past about my own eating disorders and it's become quite taboo to talk about, even though the fact it's becoming more and more prevalent in today's youth with men and women."
