Kelly’s shock weight gain!
Recent pictures seem to suggest Kelly Brook has gone from hourglass perfect to overweight…
She was never what you’d call waif-like, but Kelly Brook’s smoking hourglass figure turned heads wherever she went. Walk past the Kent-born actress in the street today, though, and you might not recognise her.
The former model, 37, looked a million miles away from her sexy Jessica Rabbit self out in LA last week in an outfit that was more Albert Square than red-carpet glam.
Of course, we can all take a bad photo, and no one should feel the need to wear make-up every time they step out, but there was no disguising the weight gain.
Kelly, who last June maintained, ‘It’s not about how I look any more,’ definitely seems to have embraced her new mantra.
In 2015, in fitness-obsessed LA, Kelly worked hard to shrink her fabulous curves down to a size 8 through a no-carb diet and regular bootcamps (the horror!).
But, back in the UK later that year, after the scrapping of her first big show Stateside, NBC sitcom One Big Happy, she eventually settled back into what she’s said is her natural size, a 10-12.
She previously said the change was down to the fact that she was ‘enjoying my life a little bit more,’ continuing, ‘My boyfriend [model, actor and judo instructor Jeremy Parisi, 31] is half-Italian, so I cook a lot of pasta, and we have croissants most mornings.
‘I’m more accepting of myself. When you’re older, you have a few too many glasses of wine and too much cake.’
But it seems she’s not always quite as accepting of her body as all that. Last November, Kelly admitted to digitally editing Instagram pics to make her waist look smaller.
And she felt no guilt. ‘I’ve been photoshopped in every picture since I started modelling. I [don’t] see any problem with it.’
Kelly’s relaxed attitude aside, the 5ft 6in beauty is looking significantly bigger. Dietitian Helen Bond told best, ‘She looks to have gone from 10st and a size 10 to 11 ½ st and a size 14 at least.’
She added, ‘Kelly’s skin doesn’t seem as glowing as before, either. It could be she’s slipped back into old habits and a love of all things sweet.’
Still, after her three broken engagements and a string of other relationships, we’re delighted to see that all seems to be going swimmingly with Kel’s hunky bloke.
We just wonder if it’s time to scale back on the pasta…
