Last month,Emily hit back at body shamers and revealed she's lost a STONE during lockdown.

It all kicked off when she posted a photo of her dinner on Instagram.

"Chinese style steak and noodles with spinach & cashews this eve. #YummaYummaYumma," she wrote on social media.

And while plenty of her followers were drooling over her meal, one troll wrote, "You will put on weight lol," before quickly deleting it.

However, Emily quickly slammed the body-shamer and wrote, "I’ve lost a stone in the last three months because I’ve been cooking like this and eating cleaner.

"So you are incorrect".

Yes, hun.
