Holly Hagan has spoken of her horror at finding out that one of her friend's dads trolled her after she shot to fame on Geordie Shore.
Holly was one of the original cast members on the MTV show when it launched in the summer of 2011 but, while she and co-stars like Charlotte Crosby, Gaz Beadle and Vicky Pattison quickly earned themselves legions of fans, people from Holly's hometown of Middlesbrough were quick to post hurtful comments about her.
Holly opened up about the hate she faced in the early days of her TV career on podcast Should I Delete That when she told the hosts Alex Light and Em Clarkson: " It was hard to read, there wasn't such thing as an internet troll then. People were just saying it, they didn't care," she said.
