‘Go eat something’ - Bristol influencer and Love Island star Siannise Fudge hits back at body shamers

Former Love Island star Siannise Fudge has hit back at body shamers who told her to ‘go and eat something’.

Ms Fudge regularly posts selfies and promotion videos to her 1.7 million followers on popular social media app Instagram.

She usually receives a flood of positive comments however she is also a target for internet trolls.

A picture uploaded of Siannise in a long gold dress for New Year’s festivities prompted one person to comment “Skin n Bone...NY res Eat something.”

The Bristol native then took to Instagram, as she screenshotted the comment, uploaded it to her Instagram story with the comment “Your new resolution can be to be kind hun”.

Siannise said: “I receive messages like these daily but whatever your body type you are, we are ALL beautiful! Will never understand why people think it’s ok to body shame people online or comment nasty things & I feel sorry for you.

“On the other hand, I am happy & health and how i see myself is what matter the most. Happy New Year to you all.”

The former beauty consultant does regular Q&As with fans on her social media, and one question she was asked was: “How do you deal with people telling you to eat more? I get this all the time and it’s awful.”

Siannise replied “I think it’s damn right rude. Anyone who thinks it’s ok to comment on peoples bodies or tell them they should eat more should be ashamed of themselves. People don’t realise how insensitive this is and how hurtful it can be and I pray people think before they comment especially when you don’t know someone’s story.

“I have always been a small, petite girl & have always struggled to put on weight and maintain it but I’m ok with that & I will get there. If you are happy within yourself & the way you look, who gives a F about what people think and I’m learning this every single day. We are all beautiful.”

Siannise finished runner up in the first ever winter edition of Love Island, with partner Luke Trotman.
