Scottish TV presenter Gail Porter has revealed she was once told by someone that she could possibly look pretty again if she wore a wig.
The 51-year-old took to Twitter on the evening of Monday September 12 to urge the public to be kind and think about the words they say to each other.
Porter was diagnosed with alopecia in 2005 and had said at the time that television work dried up because she proudly refused to wear wigs on air.
