Amy told the Daily Star: ‘I’ve been dealing with issues around my weight since I was eight. Over the years I tried different diets and quick fixes.
‘The hardest times were when I was made to feel embarrassed. Whenever I was on a plane I’d have to ask for an extension for my belt.’
She said she was so self-conscious about the request, she’d book aisle seats so she wouldn’t need to ask for the belt in front of a stranger.
Amy added: ‘When I went to Disney with my family, me and my dad had to sit in a different row on a ride because we needed bigger seats. When things like that happen it’s horrible. It makes you feel like you’re not normal.’

Amy was also subjected to horrific online trolling about her weight after her family debuted on the TV commentary show in 2013.
Earlier this month, the star revealed that she managed to drop 3.5 stone after ditching ‘quick fix’ diets and instead changing her ‘entire lifestyle’.
The television personality also candidly detailed how she’s struggled with her weight since she was just eight years old in an interview with Metro.
