I'm A Celebrity's Sue Cleaver lost three stone by following popular Mediterranean diet

I'm A Celebrity's Sue Cleaver shed serious pounds a few years ago by following one of the most popular diets out there.

The 59-year-old star, best known to Coronation Street fans for playing Eileen Grimshaw on the ITV soap since 2000, is said to have lost three stone on the Mediterranean diet. The actress began her weight loss journey in 2016 and dropped from a size 16 to a size 12 by following the popular method, The Express reports.

The star has type 2 diabetes, which I'm A Celeb viewers have worked out could be the reason she has been spotted wearing a patch on her arm in the jungle - with some saying it resembles a Dexcom patch, which tracks glucose levels to help manage the condition. The Mediterranean diet is recommended by Diabetes UK, who say there is evidence that the meal plan can promote weight loss and improve blood glucose management in those who have type 2 diabetes.
