The former Big Brother housemate, 26, hit out at TOWIE star Gemma, 33, as she uploaded picture promoting her plus size fashion range.

The comments from Sallie split opinions on the social networking site, with some saying that she was wrong for picking on Gemma’s weight.

One user replied to her comments: “What happened to live and let live?? She’s losing weight, well done to her. Think you need to stop the childishness.”

But Sallie wasn’t done. She wrote: “She should probs stop fad dieting and just do old fashioned exercising. Still promotes size 34 though.”

Replying to some of the users who slammed her for the comments, Sallie wrote: “Not saying everyone should be a size 8. Just be healthy. No one is happy when obese or healthy. Stop lying.”

Gemma says her clothing line is to make women of all sizes feel beautiful

Gemma then accused the reality star of using her name to get publicity, saying: “2 bob nothings jumping on my name for publicity. Get back round the poll darling.”

Essex girl Gemma recently spoke about her battle with her weight, following a bad relationship and break up.

She said: “Last year my self esteem was rock bottom. I gained three stone in that relationship from comfort eating.”

And she insists that her plus size fashion range is to make every woman feel beautiful, saying: “It’s making women realise they can wear a bight pink kaftan and feel fashionable instead of making bigger women live their lives in a what I call a uniform of black leggings, black tops, trousers and shirts.”
