Former EastEnders star Melissa Suffield has inspired fans with a very honest Instagram post. The ex Lucy Beale star showed off her "belly overhang" in the empowering update this week, as she encouraged followers not to feel ashamed about their appearance.
The 29-year-old mum regularly tries to promote body positivity to her 37,000 fans on the social media site and wants people to be proud of their bodies, whatever shape or size.
She advocates for "body neutrality" – a middle-of-the-road approach between body positivity and body negativity – with one of her latest posts on the platform having documented her thoughts on people having an overhanging tummy.
