Geordie Shore star admits that bodyshamers cause her ‘heart ache’
Holly Hagan, 23, started out on Geordie Shore in 2011 and since then she has admittedly dealt with both the positive and negative side of the media spotlight.
She says she has struggled with her weight and as a result of this she embarked on a huge lifestyle makeover in efforts to become fitter and healthier.
The result has been an incredible weight loss of four stone and she has revealed all of her healthy tips and tricks in her new book The Body Bible.
Despite this, Holly doesn’t think that people should be allowed comment on her weight.
She explained to BBC Newsbeat that the nasty comments about her appearance are something she finds “really upsetting.”
She added: Regardless of what job I do and regardless of whether I'm on the TV, I still have feelings.
It doesn't mean I am a robot, I'm still a normal girl. I still live with my parents and comments like that hurt [them]. How would they feel if their daughter was being called these things?”
She has said that she agrees with X Factor judge Cheryl’s recent comments about punishments for ‘bodyshamers’. Holly says she “couldn’t be more for” stricter action being taken against people criticising her weight.
Speaking with Reveal not too long ago she said: “I’m either too fat or I’m too think- there’s no in-between. It’s really sad because I’ve worked hard for four years to get to where I am now.”
She explained that despite felling much healthier and happier now that she has adopted a very different lifestyle to her previous party-girl ways; she still admits the battle with ‘bodyshamers’ hasn’t gotten any easier.
