Love Island star Amy Hart has opened up about how cruel trolls send her ‘unkind’ messages about her weight following the birth of her son Stanley.
The TV personality, 31, has been candid about how her body has changed in the year since she and fiancé Sam Ranson welcomed their first child.
But despite advocating for body confidence Amy said she has been trolled online over her weight gain, with one person calling her ‘disgustingly ugly’.
Speaking to Closer, Amy said: ‘Being in the public eye is fortunate and me and others are trying to lead the way when it comes to body confidence, but I still get unkind messages.’
She added: ‘I got a message the other day, saying “Hi Amy you are absolutely devastatingly ugly and you need to sort it out”.’

Amy revealed that she was dubbed the ‘fat one’ on Love Island by vile trolls but would ‘love to be that skinny now’ (pictured on the show in 2019)
The reality star revealed that people will argue in the comment sections of her posts about her weight.
She said some people will leave nasty messages about how she is now unrecognisable and others will jump to her defence citing that she has had a baby.
But Amy said that does not put the argument to rest, as trolls will slam having become a mother as no excuse for weight gain.
Amy said that after giving birth she felt insecure, because she was trying to dress as she had done before and it did not work.
Once Amy had found a style that worked for her new body, notably wide trousers, a bodysuit and a blazer, she said she began to love her curves and appreciate her body more because it created her son.
While she tries to ignore the trolls online, Amy admitted she does occasionally reply and put them in their place.
Her tactic, she revealed, is to take the person’s name and find them on Facebook, at which point she said they will likely have shared a post reminding others to ‘be kind’.
Amy then screenshots said post and sends it back to the troll, asking ‘Is this you?’

The podcaster also revealed she would love to have four children – three boys and a girl – but does not know if that will be possible.
She froze her eggs in 2019 after doctors warned her that early menopause ran in her family however she conceived Stanley naturally.
The reality star, who welcomed Stanley in March last year, detailed how she and Sam are going to ‘try for a second baby’ after their wedding in September.
The couple are busy planning a four-day musical theatre themed wedding in Spain.
Amy has already picked out her dress and is currently organising the big day with her wedding planner – who has been pressing her to make decisions about the event.
Amy previously told Heat Magazine: ‘So, it’s a four-day wedding, of course. The first dance isn’t a song written for a musical, but it has been in a musical, and one of my friends who has just left the West End production of Hamilton is singing it.

‘At one point, he wasn’t sure he would come to the wedding, because he has another friend getting married on the same day.
‘But get this – both our weddings are in Spain, only 35 minutes away from each other. He’s going to their ceremony and drinks, and then to ours for the meal and the first dance. It’s fate.’
She has also picked her dress already after her stylish Jeff asked her to try on a gown ‘she never would have looked at herself’ which she ‘ended up loving’.
