opening up about how she lost her weight after she was forced to cancel her wedding to fiance Billy Delbosq. The Only Way Is Essex star Amy, 34, announced her engagement to Billy in 2023 –

declared she "looks like a different person". The reality star has made no secret of the fact that she has been on a gruelling weight loss journey in recent months, and it's

recent speculation about her weight loss and the vicious trolling she’s suffered as a result of it. “People don’t know what is going on behind closed doors,” Amy says emotionally. “I’m going

through so much at the minute that the weight has fallen off me. I worry about my mum constantly. She’s very emotional – she thinks she’s going to have another heart attack.” Article

result of pure stress. We’re also having renovations done in the midst of parenting four kids.” “But I’m strong, I’ve been in this industry for 15 years. I’ve had lots of people concerned

about me, which I completely understand, but yes, people can be so quick to judge. “It’s so unfair – it shouldn’t matter what size people are. Imagine if I was really happy and healthy this

way? I’ve been open about losing too much, but I’m working towards putting some back on now.” Amy is also keen to address rumours that she has been using weight-loss injections. “I just want

to be clear that, as I’ve said before, I’m not using weight-loss injections. I did try the jab, but just once about 18 months ago. “It made me so, so ill. I injected myself and literally a

few hours later I threw up three, four times. I’ve never had sickness like it. The nausea stayed with me for three days. And it scared me so I stopped immediately. It doesn’t agree with

everybody and it obviously didn’t agree with me at all.” Amy explains that she had gone to a private doctor with the hope of losing some weight. She had her weight and blood pressure checked

during a 30-minute consultation before being prescribed the injections, which started at the lowest dose. “Bill was like, ‘I don’t know if you really need to do it,’ but he’d proposed to me

and I felt like I wanted to look amazing for my wedding day and wanted to lose some baby weight after having the twins – although I do think it’s important that women shouldn’t feel under

pressure to lose weight after having a baby. But after feeling ill I stopped straight away, so it’s not the reason for my weight loss.” The reality TV star, famed for her stint on The Only

Way Is Essex (TOWIE), has graced our screens for 15 years. Despite regularly dazzling fans with her glamour on the telly, Amy openly confessed that she had lost touch with loving her figure

and has suffered with self-confidence issues. GET CELEB UPDATES STRAIGHT TO YOUR WHATSAPP! Struggling to keep up with the ever-changing showbiz landscape? The Mirror has launched its very

been refreshingly honest about her struggle with body image. Acknowledging her tendency to consume "complete rubbish", she noticed distinct changes in her physique. Amy then began

a training and healthy eating routine in order to shape up naturally. She started working with Freya from Potentia, an online weight-loss coach based in Dubai. “I decided, ‘Right, I’ve got

to do it the proper way now.’ Freya gave me amazing recipe plans and workouts to follow, which I stuck to religiously. She got me in the gym four times a week, eating really clean. I had to

be very boring for a good six months, but I felt amazing. It’s only more recently that I’ve been losing weight due to stress that it doesn’t feel healthy.” Amy, who waved goodbye to The Only

Way Is Essex after two years on the show, made an epic return in 2020 and, since then, she has been delighting viewers with her on-screen charm. Article continues below _LIKE THIS STORY?
