Love Island's Georgia Townend says she felt 'fat and ugly' in promo shots for the show

Former Love Island contestant Georgia Townend has shared an inspiring message about body confidence, one year on from appearing on TV in swimwear.

The one-time reality TV star, 29, marked the anniversary of her stint on the ITV2 show by revealing to her fans how she "felt fat" when she posed for the original promotional images, and begged producers to let her wear a one-piece rather than a bikini for the shoot.

Georgia urged her Twitter followers not to waste time waiting for the "perfect" body, as she shared her message ahead of the new series of Love Island kicking off this evening.
