Furious Zara McDermott forced to hit back after cruel trolls brand her ‘too skinny’ in new picture

ZARA McDermott has hit back at trolls branding her ‘too skinny’ after she shared stunning Instagram snaps revealing her stomach.

The Love Island star showed off her slimline midriff in the pictures in which she posed in a white crop top and jogging bottoms.

Snapping the mirror selfies behind the scenes of her new BBC Three show Love In The Flesh, Zara wore a glamorous face of makeup and wavy hair.

While many people complimented her and praised her efforts in the gym and kitchen, others left insults.

One commented: “Please eat something x.”

Another wrote: “your face is beautiful but I genuinely hope young girls don’t look at your figure & think that’s what they should be like .”

While a third said: “Please get a meal that’s not normal surely .”

Zara ignored the majority but did respond to one critical post: “Good for you!! Everyone has different bodies, I love mine and you love yours! Brill! X.”

Beside her post Zara called her upcoming show “the best in the world” and said she’s “obsessed” with it.

It follows singletons who hooked up on dating apps during the pandemic as they meet in person for the first time.

In December Zara exclusively told The Sun she has quit reality TV after years of trolling left her needing therapy.

The stunning model has revealed she will not return to Made In Chelsea to film alongside boyfriend Sam Thompson. 

Zara said: “I’ve definitely quit doing reality TV. I stopped doing reality around a year ago.

“I have closed that chapter of my life. I did it for three years and now it’s time for the next chapter of my life. I won’t be going back to Made In Chelsea.”

Zara found fame on ITV2’s Love Island back in 2018.

The 24-year-old told how both her and her family were subjected to death threats after Sam dumped her on MIC for cheating on him.

She said: “I have loved doing reality TV and don’t regret any of it. I just hated all the trolling. It is also hard because you have to relive things so many times. 

“You go through it in real life, and then you have to keep reliving it on camera.

“Then you have to relive it all over again when it’s on TV and everyone has an opinion. Facing the public backlash is awful. 

“I have had death threats. People saying they know where my family lives and threatening them too. 

“It’s disgusting and scary. It is weird how hardened you have to become to it.

“I have had therapy but at the end of the day they can only help so much.

“It is you that has to live with it day in and day out.”

Last year Zara filmed two hard-hitting critically-acclaimed documentaries for BBC3 called Revenge Porn and Uncovering Rape Culture.
