Sue Cleaver issues warning against diet scam

At the time, Sue made an Instagram video issuing a warning to fans about a diet scam circulating online.

A company was using Sue’s name to promote their diet gummies, falsely advertising that Sue had used them to lose weight herself.

Sue opened up to her followers and revealed that she had not used such gummies and was actually trying to put on weight.

Sue revealed: “I would never ever ever advocate anything like that.

“I have lost weight this year but not from any diet. I had some women’s health issues and I lost quite a lot of weight, too much weight. Life’s too short to worry about dieting and finding quick fixes. You’re a beautiful human being as you are.

“It’s a lesson to all of us. People sometimes lose weight for other reasons than actively trying to lose weight. So let’s just be kind to each other, let’s support each other.”

Speaking on the daytime TV show Loose Women at the time, Sue revealed that she had to go to A&E in 2023 and had some emergency surgery.

Speaking about the diet scam, Sue explained that she’d cut down on the alcohol and went into the I’m A Celebrity jungle and had lost some weight as a result.

However, she’d also lost more weight due to health issues that saw her need to have surgery.

She started: “I’ve had a really bad year. I had a hysterectomy in March and then a few weeks ago I ended up in A&E.”

Adding to this, Sue explained: “It was a scary, scary time. I had surgery and ended up in intensive care.” The Eileen Grimshaw actress said she didn’t want to go into detail about what had caused it.

Finally, Sue confessed: “I am actually trying to put on weight at the minute.” She hadn’t intended to lose as much weight as she had but had done so due to health issues rather than dieting.
