DR Alex George has hit back at cruel fat shamers after uploading a topless selfie of himself on social media.

The former Love Island star, who serves as the UK Youth Mental Health Ambassador, ignored the critics as he stripped topless for a mirror selfie at the gym over the weekend.

Alex said he is ‘not ashamed anymore’ over how his physique has changed

And the 30-year-old looked in fine fettle as he showed off his body with his 2million followers on Instagram.

In a moment of defiance, Alex penned that he is “not ashamed anymore” over how his physique has changed since appearing on Love Island with a six-pack.

He wrote alongside the snap: “Movement is for everybody. Fat shaming and weight stigma can be such a barrier to exercise.

“Over the years, I have felt embarrassed and nervous to train in the gym when I’m bigger.

“I am not ashamed anymore. Don’t forget that you deserve to be in that gym as much as anyone else.

“If people judge you for how you look that says far more about them than you. I know who I would rather be friends with.”

Alex also shared another encouraging snap earlier this week during his holiday to Mauritius.

The TV star and frontline worker wrote: “Define a beach body? Be proud of the skin you live in.”

In recent months, Dr Alex got a tattoo tribute to his late brother, Llŷr.

Alongside the snap, he penned: “This ones for you my boy. After losing Llŷr, I have wanted to pay a permanent tribute to him and what he means to me.”
