I'm A Celebrity star Scarlett Moffatt has revealed a handwritten letter, which trolls her about her weight, has been delivered to her house in an extreme case of abuse.

Taking to Instagram, the 29-year-old posted an image of the letter, with the extract she uploaded reading, "Your appearance on 'Tribe' was atrocious - so fat. You can't speak properly - it's 'I', not 'me' in a sentence.

"Your mouth looks strange like a pork chop sliced in half."

In the caption, Scarlett hit back, writing, "The fact someone’s sent me a letter as they feel so strongly about my weight is ridiculous.

Turns out I’m not even safe from vile comments in the comfort of my own home. I WILL NOT let bullies like this get me down."

The rest of the family are still thick as thieves, as Scarlett's recent tribute to her dad Mark proves. After Scarlett gained celeb status, the whole family were axed, leaving Scarlett gutted – but they're certainly enjoying her celeb status, with "secret" little sister Ava making pals with Joe Swash's son Harry, and glitzy parties galore. The family also starred together with Scarlett's nan on a reality series called The Tribe Next Door in 2019, where they travelled to the Namibian desert to live with indigenous people of the area.

However, things eventually turned pretty sour between the two, and earlier this year Chris gave an interview with The Mirror where he claimed Stephen had "bullied" him off the show."A year on, I've finally had the courage to stand up to a bully and start to tell the story of how @Stephenwebb71 forced of off @C4Gogglebox and how it's affected my mental health since," he tweeted, adding that he'd received no mental health aftercare, which is an "industry-wide failing".He's found his happy ever after, though, wit a new husband.

After his departure in the show in 2015, Jay told The Sun, "I get recognised as that guy who never speaks — and most people get shocked by how much I talk. I am generally quite talkative."They just edit the bits where I talk out."

"I just wish they’d left me a reply address and I would have sent them some local charity details and clubs near them so they could occupy there time as they seem to have so much of it by helping others.

"Let’s just be kind to people as we don’t know what’s going on in their lives ❤️ #bekind."

Since Scarlett uploaded the picture, the post has gained over 22,000 likes. However, the TV presenter has disabled the comments, meaning fans were unable to comment their well wishes.

But her fans have instead commented on her other uploads to tell Scarlett that she is an "inspiration" and "brave."

One user said, "Scarlett I just saw your recent post and it made me so sad. You really are a stunningly beautiful woman inside and out and your body is BANGING. People would kill to have a body like yours. Your beautiful and people like that are so full of hate towards themselves they can’t help but project it on others. Keep strong remember who you are you gorgeous girl. ❤️❤️❤️."

Another commented, "You are a breathe of fresh air ... sending you lots of love and energy to rise above those who think they have rights over you."
