The Charlotte Crosby documentary that aired on Channel 5 earlier this month has attracted “7,000 complaints” to Ofcom.
Former Geordie Shore Charlotte, 30, was horrified when the documentary went out, calling it “immoral”.
What happened in the Charlotte Crosby documentary?

In response, Channel 5 told the newspaper: “Channel 5 and the programme’s producers, Crackit Productions, take duty of care very seriously.
“While we acknowledge that the programme was Ofcom compliant, we have taken on board Charlotte’s feedback and removed the episode from our streaming platform My5.
“We apologise for any upset caused.”
What was the programme all about?
The documentary told the story of Charlotte’s alleged extensive plastic surgery.
In 2016, Charlotte underwent her first procedure – a nose job.
She then followed it with lip fillers.
But despite Charlotte being open about her struggles with body image and her plastic surgery, she thought documentary which took a forensic look at her body history was too much.

What did Charlotte say about the programme?
In the wake of the now-deleted programme, Charlotte took to social media to express her dismay at the content within the documentary.
She said in a lengthy message to fans: “At a time when the broadcast and media world were backing a policy of ‘be kind’, Channel 5 and Crackit decided to commission this one-hour special on ‘rubber lip Charlotte’ (their words not mine).”
“Their ‘experts’ dissected my ‘plastic face’ with disgust, discussing my fluctuating weight (with images), and then decided to flash up the worst troll comments from the past five years.”

She ended the response by saying: “When is enough enough?
“Just because we’re in the public eye, doesn’t mean we aren’t human.
“Fortunately I’m strong enough to deal with it but many aren’t.”
