Collins now a bigger dipper
HOLLYWOOD star Lily Collins has spoken about how the divorce of her parents, Eighties pop star Phil and his second wife Jill Tavelman, drove her to anorexia.
Happily, the 28year-old actress is now a more healthy shape, as she showed during a trip to Italy.
Her new Netflix film, To The Bone, in which she plays a 20- year- old with the eating disorder, has been accused of sexism, shallowness and glamorising and exploiting anorexia.
However, Lily, who wore a cutaway black swimsuit for a dip in the Med, told the Mail last week that the film was telling it like it is — and that she hoped vulnerable teenagers would take notice.
She said: ‘It’s a story that needs to be told and I’m best placed to tell it.’
