The TV starlet had been busy working on a documentary about how the Internet is fuelling eating disorders in young people.
However, when researching the programme, she was shocked to find pictures of herself on 'thinspiration' websites, who feature photographs of slim (or, indeed, skinny) celebrities and models to serve as motivation for young anorexics to starve themselves.
Upset Fearne exclaimed: "To think girls would use [my picture] is horrific. I wish I could take myself off this website. I don't want to be associated with anything like this."

The 27-year-old also slammed celebs like Beyonce, who publicised details of a two-week juice fast that she undertook in preparation for the movie Dreamgirls.
Fearne said that boasting about hardcore dieting regimes is "irresponsible" as "kids might just take hold of it and start doing it too."
