Roz Purcell has reminded viewers that the stars of Love Island are “selective”.
The body positive model has been praised in recent months for sharing real unedited photos of herself on her social media, showing off her stretch marks and periods of bloating.
Taking to Instagram ahead of the Love Island finale, Roz shared a photo of herself in a swimsuit, and said the girls on Love Island are definitely feeling the pressure tonight.
“Love island is hitting our screens tonight lets remember its a selective representation of the female body,” she wrote.
“And I would say the pressure they must feel to live up to the ‘perfect body’ before entering the reality TV SHOW world is horrible.
“The fact they HAVE to wear bikinis all day until they are allowed put clothes on for the evening.
“The stress,” she added.
It comes after the show came under fire over body image this week, when new contestant Anna was written about as “plus size”, which sparked a debate online.
Host Caroline Flack was even forced to defend the show, after body positive star Jameela Jamil slammed producers.
