Susanna Reid shuts down a troll who says she looks ‘chunky’ and asks if she has ‘put on weight’

Susanna Reid shut down a Twitter troll who asked if she had ‘put on some weight’ and branded her ‘chunky’ in a cruel comment on Friday evening.

The Good Morning Britain host, 51, had shared an article written on her outfit similarities with Joan Collins, before being hit with a rude reply from the user.

The critic wrote a tweet that said: ‘Have you put on some weight? You are looking very chunky’ – while quick witted Susanna simply replied saying ‘yes’.

Susanna quote tweeted the question and wrote ‘yes’.

While she seemed to handle the ill-mannered encounter well, many fans and users came to the reply section of the tweet to display their disbelief and support.

Showing their confusion, one wrote: ‘Why do people think this is ok?’, while another agreed ‘Why people always think is alright to comment on somebody’s appearance it’s beyond me .. I just don’t understand.’

Susanna is known for openly talking about her weight, admitting previously that she struggled with a ‘lockdown slump’ and gained weight due to the pandemic. 

Speaking to Joe Wicks in November 2020, in preparation for another lockdown, Susanna asked for his advice. 

‘I’m going to be battling with the lockdown stone, it went on during lockdown one. I really don’t want another one going on during lockdown two,’ she explained.

While Joe suggested regular exercise and cutting down on certain foods to combat weight gain.
