Chloe Madeley hits back at trolls who say she 'looks like a man'
Richard and Judy's daughter had some strong words for her critics
Fitness model and personal trainer Chloe Madeley has some strong words for anyone who criticises the body she's worked so hard for.
The 29-year-old, who is the daughter of TV presenters Richard Madeley and Judy Finnigan, opened up to the Daily Mail about the negative comments she'd received about her toned physique.
'My message to those who leave hateful comments would be: What the f*** is your problem? Do what you want because it doesn't bother me,' she said.
'People say I am "too muscly" or "too thin" or that I "look like a man" but I couldn't disagree more and as long as my boyfriend [rugby player James Haskell] doesn't agree then we're sweet.'
Chloe has just launched her first e-publication, Eat Clean Get Lean, and says that her fit and healthy figure is down to a combination of healthy eating and hard work at the gym.
In a typical day, she'll have oats with protein powder for breakfast, followed by chicken, rice and vegetables for lunch. Dinner is eggs, avocado, protein and vegetables, and if she fancies a snack, she'll have Greek yoghurt, or half an avocado with balsamic vinegar. She also works out six times a week.
However, whilst discipline and consistency are very important to Chloe, she's not adverse to the odd treat: 'James and I are members of a wine club so we get a box every month - we are slightly obsessed and even go on wine tasting weekends,' she admits. 'We also love Japanese food and pizza.'

She hopes that her new plan will make healthy eating and exercise accessible to everyone, because: 'There's so much s*** out there.'
'I read other books and there's so much misinformation. Health is my biggest passion and I can't believe I fell on love with something and made a career out of it. I feel accomplished, calm and confident.'
