Josie Gibson has hit back at an online troll who cruelly criticised her ‘weight’ after an appearance on This Morning.
The Big Brother star, who regularly responds to her followers’ kind comments on social media, had the best response to one person’s nasty remark.
‘I don’t mean to be rude but @Josiestweet is absolutely vile,’ the tweet began.
‘#thismorning it breaks my heart when I look at how fat she has got again.’
Retweeting the comment, Josie simply told the troll that there are ‘so many more things in the world to care about’.
‘But you are being rude, so you do mean to be rude,’ Josie replied.
‘Don’t let my weight gain break your heart, honestly, there is so many more things in the world to care about that really do matter.’
Josie’s followers were quick to step in and defend the This Morning host.
One tweeted: ‘Some people really ought to keep their mouths shut, what a rude idiot! Take no notice, I think you’re absolutely fantastic xx’
While another commented: ‘Charming……. you bring a lovely smile and great sense of humour to This morning, it’s vile to vilify someone because how they look.’
One added: ‘Josie my lovely, you’re a proper sort. Ignore this gutter troll. You are a genuine beauty no matter what size you wear. Why on Earth your size is even a talking point is beyond me. Never change.’
‘Massive respect for you Jodie. Don’t let that troll get to you. Who cares what you weigh. You make my day when I see you on This Morning,’ another said.
Josie rose to fame in 2010 when she entered the Big Brother house – which she later went on to win.
Later that year she went on to enter Ultimate Big Brother, but she decided to leave three days later.
Not only is she a regular host on This Morning, but the 35-year-old has also had appearances on Loose Women and Big Brother’s Bit On The Side.
This Morning airs weekdays at 10am on ITV.
