'Frustrated' Davina McCall furious over 'cruel abuse' she suffers online - 'I'm not unhealthy!'

Davina McCall has hit back at 'cruel' online trolls who left abusive comments about her weight on a recent post, claiming she looked 'too skinny' and 'gaunt'.

The TV presenter, who has faced backlash for her weight in the past, took to Instagram to share her frustration with a new video, assuring followers she isn't 'unhealthy' and pleading with them to 'think' before posting nasty comments.

Admitting in the caption that she would 'probably regret' posting the honest clip, Davina said in the video: " Hi, I just thought I'd quickly do a post about the kind of, uh, I guess it is abuse, that I'm getting about my weight. It's really frustrating and I feel like people post these things and then they have no consequences.

"They can post whatever they like and then be cruel and I just have to, kind of, take it. I'm actually just left sitting feeling furious so I thought I'd offload here. I'm a 5"6 woman who weighs 61 kilos, I don't diet, I exercise, I eat relatively healthy and I enjoy sharing that journey with people. I'm 57 this year and I'm happy with the way I look, I feel absolutely f*****g great. So I just thought I'd post that there."

Davina was referring to comments left on a clip she had posted earlier in the week, where she gave an insight into her M&S food shop, but was left with many fans commenting negatively on her face and neck.

Continuing, Davina explained: "I can't really do much about my neck and my face unless I fill it with filler. I don't know what to do about that, my neck is my neck and maybe the light was bad in my last post or something. All you have to do is look at the rest of the posts on my page and see that I'm not unhealthy. But this was horrible.

"So, I'm parking that there and am just saying, maybe think before you post something. Wouldn't it be nicer to say something positive? And if you can't say anything positive then maybe just don't post."

Davina was supported by a number of famous names in the comment section, including Paddy McGuinness, who wrote: "Jealousy, resentment or a need to feel superior. Other people’s low self-esteem and social media are never a good mix. Keep that strong chin up D. Love from the North!"

While Amanda Holden kept things short and sweet by writing: "F*** em darling".
