Lynn Kelly has insisted that Irish models do eat – and just work extremely hard for their enviable figures.
The Dubliner, who was recently attacked for looking too skinny in a photoshoot, said she and her pals are “really healthy”.
She said: “A lot of people see models and think ‘Oh she’s so lucky’ or ‘They don’t eat’ but we’re really healthy.

“All of the girls always have their food with them and we eat every couple of hours. Most of the girls work really hard for their bodies and it doesn’t come as naturally as people think.”
And Lynn it isn’t easy to be a model in Ireland – insisting it isn’t as glamorous as it’s made out.
The ex-Miss Universe Ireland has been forced to jump out of a birthday cake in a shopping centre, just wearing lingerie – and she got the flu after another horror shoot.

She told the Herald: “Once I had to jump out of a birthday cakes in lingerie in a shopping centre – there’s been some cringe outfits as well.
“I remember I had a shoot for a magazine and I was so cold that I had the flu for two weeks afterwards.
“I was actually blue – it was a swim wear shoot. It was March and we were on Portmarnock beach – it was hell.”
