Amy Childs Reveals Reason for Weight Loss After Canceling Wedding to Billy Delbosq

Amy Childs has revealed the real reason behind her extreme weight loss after calling off her wedding to her fiancé Billy Delbosq.

The TOWIE star, 34, has sparked concern in recent months with her new slimmed-down appearance after dropping an incredible two stone.

Amy has now addressed the weight loss and cruel trolling she’s received as a result of it in an emotional interview. 

She told OK! Magazine: ‘I’m going through so much at the minute that the weight has fallen off me. I worry about my mum constantly. She’s very emotional – she thinks she’s going to have another heart attack.’

‘People think I’m not eating, but I do eat. To be honest, I do feel better when I’m a bit heavier than I am at the moment. There’s so much going on at the minute – it’s the result of pure stress. We’re also having renovations done in the midst of parenting four kids.’

Amy has called off her wedding to her fiancé Billy after a stressful period dealing with her mother’s ill health and her own extreme weight loss.

The reality star, who is said to be ‘gutted’ over the decision, has reportedly decided to cancel their impending nuptials to focus on her personal life.

It was previously claimed that Amy’s ‘perfect’ day was under threat and it has now been reported by Closer magazine that the day is totally off for now.

According to the publication, the plans have been pushed back due to ‘last minute changes’, after she first delayed the wedding in 2023.

An insider said: ‘Amy has had to cancel her wedding and she’s absolutely gutted. There was going to be a show around it, following the run-up to their big day..

‘But they’ve had to make some last-minute changes based on what’s going on in their lives.’

It comes after Amy addressed fan concerns over her slimmed-down appearance, emphasising that her transformation was accomplished without weight-loss injections

Amy suffered a recent personal tragedy when her mother Julie was rushed to hospital for emergency surgery after suffering a heart attack.

In April she took to Instagram and said her mother, 59, collapsed from the health scare leaving her terrified.

Amy revealed at the time that Julie was ‘doing OK’ but needed rest and was in hospital waiting for a stent to be fitted.

A heart attack can lead to a complete blockage of blood flow to the heart, and a stent is a medical device used to open that blockage and restore blood flow.

Alongside a picture of Julie beaming while holding her twins, Amy penned: ‘We had very worrying news last Friday. My mum had a heart attack Friday evening.

‘I’ve been having loads of messages from close friends (sorry I haven’t got back to some of you).

‘Mum is doing OK. She is going to hopefully be having a stent put in this week!

‘She is so bloody strong but she needs rest. I’ve been all over the place this week but mum is in the best heart hospital where she is being looked after so well.

‘Love you mum @mrsruliechilds hopefully your be home soon to celebrate your 60th. Love you more then anything mum xxx.’

Julie will be known to fans as she starred in her daughter’s 2011 reality show, It’s All About Amy.

‘I really struggled with losing weight after the babies, I was in a complete baby bubble, no energy, and the last thing I wanted to do was “diet”

’10 months ago I decided to follow a meal plan @freya.potentiacoaching and train up to 3 times a week with MY PT! as well as taking up reformer Pilates (which I absolutely love) great for toning.

‘I still very much enjoy weekends with a few glasses of Prosecco or a bottle BUT this is basically a post to say if you was in the same boat as me 9months ago struggling to lose your weight!

‘Then if I can do it you 1000 percent can do it too! It’s not a quick fix and it’s taken me months but I’m starting to feel good in my self again!

‘I never thought I would feel confident uploading pictures of me especially in swimwear still a lot of toning up to do, but I have too remember that I have had 4 children so I should be very proud how far I’ve come ♥️

‘PS just realised still have moisturiser on my leg!!’
