Scarlett Moffatt has revealed the secret to her recent weight loss, and it isn’t what you would expect.
Rather than any dieting hacks or exercise regimes, the Gogglebox star, 35, has admitted it has been prioritising her mental health and starting therapy which has helped everything ‘fall into place’.
The mother-of-one, who has dropped from a size 18 to a size 16, told Closer Magazine: ‘Loads of people keep giving me compliments and I keep getting a big head – but I think it’s just happiness.
‘I started therapy at the beginning of the year and I honestly think if you look after the mind, everything else just falls into place.’
Scarlett added that being a mother to her son Jude, two, brings her the most happiness as she added: ‘I also think that doing things I love has helped – and making sure that I spend as much time as possible with my little boy, because that’s what brings me joy’.
Sadly Scarlett was too poorly to attend the Pride of Britain Awards on Monday evening, however earlier this month she showcased her incredible weight loss in a gold mini dress while attending the Attitude Awards 2025.
She put on a leggy display and boasted her slimmed-down physique in the glamorous one-shouldered piece.

Yet she revealed she still treats herself to fast food as she made a hilarious nod to Greggs by carrying a sequinned clutch bag with the bakery’s logo.
Her weight loss journey has been well-documented over the years, following scandal surrounding her 2016 workout DVD, when she fell from a size 18 to a size eight.
The I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here winner went from 11st 4lb to 8st which saw her drop several dress sizes for her Scarlett’s Superslim Me Plan.
In unveiling the DVD, the Gogglebox star claimed to have lost the weight with the routines in her video alongside a 1,200 calories a day diet.
However messages came to light between Scarlett and her DVD choreographer David Souter showing she had allegedly lost the weight by jetting to a Swiss bootcamp, being forced to take diet pills and living on 700 calories a day.
Messages reportedly read: ‘He worked me to the max had me popping pills and I lost 0.4 of a pound. I said the drugs don’t work and he called me a t*t. Had me in tears yesterday, forcing me to take these tablets that were giving me heart palpitations.’
David later told The Sun On Sunday: ‘The messages about the pills were sent to me by Scarlett two days after she complained to me that she felt sick and had vomited after arriving in Switzerland.’
After the release of the messages, Scarlett’s representatives confirmed elements of the story – yet staunchly denied the star ever took pills.
She said: ‘I started therapy at the beginning of the year and I honestly think if you look after the mind, everything else just falls into place’

Her team stated: ‘[Scarlett] did go to a boot camp and it was a horrid experience. She had to weigh herself every day and was put on a very low-calorie diet — but she categorically did not take any pills.’
She also admitted she ‘purposefully gained weight’ to discourage fans from buying her fitness DVD, following its release.
In July, Scarlett confessed she is now a size 16 as she shared some photos from a family holiday.
The Gogglebox star, looked sensational in the post in which she joked to fans about ‘feeling middle aged’ before revealing her current dress size.
She wrote: ‘Serving middle aged, size 16 (with a bag full of toddler snacks) Love Island slow mo walk’.
