Gogglebox star Amy Tapper says that trolls labelling her part of the ‘fat family’ when on the show was ‘quite upsetting’, but she hasn’t let them get her down as she continues to share details of her health kick.
From 2013 until 2018 Amy, alongside her parents Jonathan and Nikki and brother Josh, were couch critics on the reality television show.
Just 13 when she joined the series, Amy was never bullied about her weight until people on social media started making nasty comments about the teenager that used to leave her in tears.
‘It was quite upsetting. There were people on Twitter calling us ‘the fat family from Gogglebox’ but my mum and my brother have never had any problems with their weight’, she told the Daily Mail.
‘My dad and I would both get nasty comments about our weight and I’d also get people criticising my voice for being too loud,’ she added.
