Gogglebox star stuns in summer floral dress after losing six stone
Amy Tapper shows off her six stone weight lost at a family wedding and fan's are stunned with her incredible transformation
Former Gogglebox star Amy Tapper looked stunning in a gorgeous summer's dress for a family wedding this weekend following her weight loss. The 25-year-old looked radiant in the ruffled, plunging number as she posed with friends and her sister-in-law Hannah at the celebration.
Amy has been sharing her fitness journey with fans on Instagram and earlier this year revealed she'd officially dropped six stone breaking down in tears as she jumped on the scales in front of her personal trainer.
'I cannot believe it - I'm so proud of myself,' she wrote at the time. 'Here's to the next stone and more.'
In February, she shared a mirror selfie wearing a jumper from 2022 that now hangs loosely on her slimmer frame. 'Officially 5 stone down and I couldn't be happier. Never thought I'd be able to reach this milestone so I think I can say I'm proud of myself.'
'Thank you for being by my side throughout it all,' she told fans.
The support Amy's received hasn't gone unnoticed. Her transformation has inspired others to share their own health goals - something she says means the world. 'More recently it has come full circle with people on my social media sharing in my weightloss journey and sharing their goals and progress too. It's an amazing feeling when they thank me for being their inspiration.'
Amy revealed she kick-started her health journey with a challenge to shed 3.5 stone - losing 33cm from her waist in just five weeks at the start of 2022. But she's been open about the fact that years of trying diets, they never gave her lasting results.
She explained that it was only after making a positive lifestyle change that her health journey finally took off.
From a young age, Amy says she recognised she had a bigger build than her peers and although she was never bullied for her weight, she was always aware of her size.
Amy first appeared on Gogglebox at 13, alongside her mum Nikki, dad Jonathan and brother Josh. The show catapulted the family into the public eye and straight into the firing line of cruel social media trolls.
'I'd see people on Twitter calling us 'the fat family from Gogglebox',' she said. 'My dad and I would both get nasty comments about our weight… but my mum and my brother have never had any problems with their weight.'

Rap duo Bob Vylan banned from US ahead of planned autumn shows
Mr Landau announced the decision to revoke the pair's US visas after one half of the duo, rapper Bobby Vylan chanted 'death, death to the IDF (Israel Defence Forces)' at the festival. The BBC has since expressed its regret at not pulling the live stream of the act's performance during Glastonbury on Saturday, saying the 'antisemitic sentiments' expressed by the group were 'utterly unacceptable'. Bob Vylan played at Coachella in Calfornia earlier this year but will be unable to return to the US when they were set to perform in Chicago, Brooklyn and Philadelphia in the autumn. The duo, formed in Ipswich in 2017, have released four albums addressing issues to do with racism, masculinity and class. Bobby Vylan's real name is Pascal Robinson-Foster, 34, according to reports. In a statement posted to Instagram after the Glastonbury set, Vylan said: 'Teaching our children to speak up for the change they want and need is the only way that we make this world a better place. 'As we grow older and our fire starts to possibly dim under the suffocation of adult life and all its responsibilities, it is incredibly important that we encourage and inspire future generations to pick up the torch that was passed to us.' They are due to perform at Radar Festival in Manchester on Saturday and Boardmasters, a surfing and music festival in Newquay, Cornwall, in August.

Drake will headline the main stage each evening in a deal thought to be worth millions. And now the Hotline Bling singer has hinted fellow rapper Nicki will also be joining him on stage. Drake took to Instagram on Monday and shared a throwback photo of Nicki. But he failed to caption the picture behind posting it, which has left fans guessing if the Starships singer is set to join him at the festival. Drake and Nicki have often teamed up for collaborations together - including their hit track Moment 4 Life and Needle. They have also surprised each other over the years with appearances at each other's gigs. So the duo taking to the stage together next month may not be far off. It follows last year's festival which was headlined by Nicki Minaj, 21 Savage, J Hus and Doja Cat. A source said: "It's been months in the making and initially no one thought they could pull it off, but Drake is all signed on to headline all three days of Wireless. Hidden link between Kendrick Lamar's beef with Drake, the Super Bowl halftime show, and Duolingo's dead owl revealed "Bosses are naturally overjoyed and expect tickets to sell out in record time. "Exact set lists are still to be worked out but one idea that has been passed about is that Drake will perform some of his albums in full for the first time." In February Drake teamed up with PartyNextDoor to release collaboration album $ome $exy $ongs 4 U. On the 21-track album, Drake takes a swipe at his haters and "rap beef" in the industry. On Gimme A Hug he rages: "They be dropping s*** but we dropping harder s***. F*** a rap beef, I'm tryna get the party lit. "Tryna get the party lit for the b****es." Drake last toured the UK in 2019, playing seven nights at London's O2 Arena as part of his Assassination Vacation Tour. In 2021, Drake made a surprise appearance on night one of Wireless Festival - popping up during Future's set.

Khloe Kardashian admits she has 'great docs' as she lists all cosmetic surgeries
Khloé Kardashian has furiously responded to speculation over what cosmetic surgeries she has had over the years, telling fans she has great doctors who have worked on her Khloe Kardashian has set the record straight on rumours that she has undergone plastic surgery in the past. She has revealed the full list of tweaks and treatments she's had done and shut down the endless speculation with a surprisingly classy clap back. The Kardashians star, 39, jumped into the comments of a resurfaced Instagram video after an aesthetic doctor listed 'every' procedure he believed that the reality star and businesswoman had had over the years. Dr Jonny Betteridge claimed Khloe had 'changed a lot over the years' before listing out a face and neck lift, chin implant, rhinoplasty, blepharoplasty and more. But Khloe wasn't having it and stepped in with her own breakdown of what's actually gone down. 'I take this as a great compliment,' she wrote. 'First off, I think these photos are about 15 years apart, but here's a list of things that I have done.' She then listed: a nose job, laser hair removal 'on the hairline and everywhere else', Botox, sculptra in the cheek where she had a tumour removed, soft wave laser for skin tightening, and threads under the chin and neck. Khloe added she'd had filler in the past but none recently 'I hear it never goes away, so I'm sure it's still there but calmed down.' The Revenge Body star also revealed she's lost 80 pounds 'slow and steady', and regularly gets salmon sperm facials, takes peptides and vitamins, and swears by her skincare routine. She ended her comment saying: 'In 2025, there are many other things we can do before surgery, but when it's time, and if I choose to, I know some great doctors.' Fans praised the transparency, with one writing: 'Classy correction!! Love this!!! You're absolutely gorgeous & I always appreciate how gently you correct misinformation.' But not everyone was buying it. Over on Reddit, some users suggested that Khloe was only referring to her face as she failed to 'mention her 40th birthday boob job,' another comment read 'Why are they so afraid to admit the bigger surgeries they've had done?' Khloe isn't the only Kardashian who's opened up about work done, though fans often point out how selective the family is with what they choose to share. Kris Jenner once said all she needed was 'a massage, a great facial, a manicure and a little Botox' to feel her best. Kylie Jenner has previously admitted to temporary lip fillers after feeling 'unkissable' as a teen, and later confirmed she got a breast augmentation at 19, though she's since expressed regret about it. Despite the family's ever-evolving looks, the Kardashian camp have remained firm that not everything is surgery - just a very curated mix of 'tweakments', maintenance, and good lighting.
