ITV I'm A Celebrity's Charlene White says taunts about her weight left her feeling 'disgusting'

I'm A Celebrity campmate Charlene White has spoken about how she's had to deal with negative comments from viewers. The 42-year-old ITV News presenter and Loose Women anchor is about to head into the jungle after landing at Brisbane to take part in this year's series of the hit ITV show.

She has spoken about how she brushes off any negative comments about her weight after being left "so upset" when a viewer emailed to say her size was "unacceptable". She received the blunt viewer message 15 years ago, just a year after she started on the channel, and it left her feeling "disgusting" about her body.

But now she has learned to "tolerate" such abuse and knows she is "good at her job" regardless of her appearance, the Mirror reports.
