I am so let down by Fern Britton's lies that I've been crying non stop since I found out.What are your views?

For those lucky few who are blissfully unaware of the facts.....she has lost some weight recently and put it down to exercise and eating less ( I watched her speak about it on This Morning)





It has now been revealed she had surgery......I am devastated.





She has let us all down but more importantly she has let herself down.

I didn't cry, but all I thought was "cheeky cow" because she knows how many people look up to her, and to find out that she's been lying all along makes me quite annoyed.





She probably doesn't even eat Ryvita.
Reply:its anne diamond all over again...i feel a bit let down by this as well, i didnt realise until i saw your post. wonder if she'll still be the face of ryvita....hope not
Reply:Don't get me wrong- Fern Britton is an amazing person-





If she want's to be ''lazy'' or is feeling self-consious about her body I think she has to do what she thinks is right. The fact that telling people it's down to exercise is so another stupid journalist story doesn't pop-up around surgery.





I personally don't know the woman, so I can't really judge on the situation, however I know if it's what she wanted, it's the best for all of her follower's.
Reply:I feel a bit let down by her lying, but not about what she had done. It has obviously improved both her health and happiness - I just think she should have been open about like some others (Sharon Osbourne for one) have been.
Reply:why can't people exercise more instead of just eating less? worked for me.
Reply:She hasn't let anybody down. It's her life and she can do what she wants with her body. We have no right at all to know anything about it. She is a wonderful presenter and the press are just disgusting.
Reply:She is bang out of order making people people believe that she'd lost it all walking the dog and eating well!!!!!she should be ashamed for making people think that it is that easy!
Reply:My views? Stop crying.
Reply:Poppy I feel your pain.... Yesterday I really didnt know how I would carry on living after I found out the shocking truth








Devastated dont even begin to describe how I feel at this 'news'
Reply:I agree with you, she let us all down so did Ann Diamond and all the ones who said no surgery for them. Cheats the lot of them


never mind dry your eyes and have a big star.

Reply:Never heard that but am really annoyed. She DID lie about her weight loss - no question. I was actually wishing I had the willpower to lose weight like her. Should have known there was something cos the weight came off far too quickly. Think Fern has just lost herself a helluva lot of fans - male AND female!





JAZZ TIGER: STOP GENERALISING! Not ALL fat people are lazy! There are medical conditions which cause obesity, not just being a couch potato or stuffing your gub full of food.
Reply:I´ve already started therapy to deal with it.
Reply:I'm with you girl....Where my tears come right now i just don't know...I must have shed a million litres of tears all because I've been duped....How she could lie like that i don't know, my life will never be the same......
Reply:There's a difference, surely, between lying, and choosing not to discuss your personal business with strangers and media?


Do you really think a gastric band is an easy option? I have known a lady who had it, and the depression from not being able to lead a normal, healthy life actually left her wishing she was still huge!


Anyone losing that amount of weight, in a healthy manner, all be it 'assisted', deserves encouragement!
Reply:I remember the young Fern and believe me she was quite a looker. What happened between then and now is pretty obvious so anything she does to improve herself is fine.
Reply:she and who else? Go on, catch a grip.... shes not


the only one to be having us on about this kind of


stuff!





Open your eyes to the world please.





Save your tears for the only things worth saving


them for, the real tragedies that happen!
Reply:I feel great I'm still a fat cow.
Reply:You definitely need to see your counsellor .


Filya I feel your suffering you should seek counselling also . Ask Poppy for the name of hers.
Reply:Blimey get a life! nobody's real anymore anyway, blame the Americans!
Reply:don't shed tears over such trivial matters.
Reply:I am so sorry for your pain. Must be terrible. Who is Fern Britton by the way?
Reply:Like most women in the uk exercise is a dirty word. You all just keep reading heat, watching Big brother and wishing you had jessica albas body but not doing f**k all about it.
Reply:Didn't she say that there are some things a girl wants to keep to herself? That should mean keeping things private.


Didn't know that meant going on TV and magazines telling downright lies.





Imagine all the people trying to do the same and feeling failures?





ps Who is she anyway?
Reply:Have you stopped crying yet..?? How stupid can you get, listening to all that rubbish on TV. Half of what anyone says on the box these days is rubbish and you should not be taken in by it all. Does it really matter whether she is fat or thin, as long as you are ok.
Reply:I am far more concerned about the people who have nothing in their stomachs....they are hungry or even starving.


Couldn't care less about celebs.


They are full of themselves.
Reply:I'm not crying, I'm seething! Why can't she have been honest. She's acted like some b----- Goddess on TV for months and in magazines like Woman's Own, letting us all believe she has done it 'the right way, via diet and exercise'. Huh,


Go eat your self into TV oblivion Miss Britton!
Reply:None of our business what the woman does with her money and time in order to loose weight.
Reply:She's just lazy. Like most fat people. Lying is just another problem she's got.
Reply:Its the first I've heard of it, I don't watch much TV and don't read the papers. Do you know if this is definitely true? I can't see Fern lying to that extent. Maybe she had a tummy tuck to rid herself of excess skin? I know tons of dieters would do that when they had lost lots of weight, if they could afford to.





ADDED: I've seen the story now - yes she has been decieving people by her omission that she hadn't just lost her weight through diet and exercise alone.
