The couple earning 6 figures from being trolled: Obese actor who dared to marry a 'beautiful' size 6 influencer says people hate seeing a 'fat man have what they can't' - but is now facing more abuse for taking Mounjaro

An obese actor who found love with a size six influencer has faced years of trolling online by viewers who believe he 'must be rich' to have married a beautiful, slim woman. With their most popular videos racking up millions of views, swathes of internet users have accused George and Sienna Keywood of being 'fake' and 'fame hungry' - and have questioned the legitimacy of their relationship. George has branded critics 'jealous' of seeing a fat man who 'has what they can't', but even after seven years together and the birth of their son, it has not silenced critics who are now branding him 'lazy' for taking Mounjaro to lose weight. The couple's love story began with Australia-born Sienna spotting the actor, 31, on television in his role as Craig in the Bafta award-winning British sitcom People Just Do Nothing. 'Back when I was living in Australia, I was watching People Just Do Nothing and I was like "That is my ideal man, he's so hot!" I ended up Googling him,' she recalled. In true modern style, Sienna, a former PT whose passion is singing, sent George a message on social media expressing her interest, to which George's initial reaction was: 'Hmmm is this a scam?' From that point, their relationship blossomed as any other. The pair met for a date and 'clicked straight away', describing their immediate attraction to one another. 'What connected us was that we were both so alike,' George recalled. 'We're both creative. We got on, and that chemistry was already there before we even met in real life.' 'It was like true love,' Sienna agreed. 'It sounds so corny but when you know, you know.' The couple fell in love in 2018 and got married in 2022. Now, they share a five-year-old son called Oliver and have moved into their dream five-bedroom home in Surrey. But still, viewers aren't convinced. George faces a whirlwind of insults online, having been called a 'beached whale' and told he is 'lazy' and 'disgusting' for his size, with viewers regularly taking stabs at predicting when he will die. 'People just can't get over the fact that I'm fat and she's skinny,' said George, who puts the public's disdain down to pure jealousy. 'They see my wife and think "Wow, she's very attractive. Why can't I have that?" 'I've dealt with it for years. They hate the fact that a fat man can have more than them, they hate the fact that I can have this and they hate the fact that she's attracted to this.' According to George, Sienna is attracted to him because he's a 'bigger' man. 'That's her attraction,' he said. 'And I'm into her because she's a slim, beautiful, lovely-looking woman.' The couple are unconventional in other ways. As part of their many lucrative projects, they share an account on OnlyFans - a subscription-based pornographic site where users can make money by uploading adult content. Starring in adult videos together, the couple charge $15 a month for a glimpse into their intimate life. George has been called a 'beached whale' and told he is 'lazy' and 'disgusting' for his size, with viewers regularly taking stabs at predicting when he will die (George after weight loss) Their activity on the site has added to the vitriol of hatred directed at the parents. But the couple feel they have profited from the negativity, with George saying: 'We afford this house and these cars because we make over six figures a year getting trolled.' George now funds his lifestyle in part through online sponsorships which see him endorse products in exchange for payment. Selling tech products and running livestreams on his account, George claims to have made as much as £30,000 a month through social media. He said: 'We've made so much more money from social media than we ever thought we would make.' Interestingly, though, the pair don't advertise their OnlyFans page on their social media channels. Although platforms such as TikTok and Instagram ban explicit promotion of OnlyFans accounts, members use 'funnels' by directing potential customers to an external link. And while Sienna's Instagram does have a link to the page, her social media image is that of a normal, loving mother with a young child. She has previously spoken online of her 'shame and embarrassment' about making money from social media, television appearances, magazine spreads and even getting her wedding paid for by a TV channel. Sienna has also previously questioned why bigger actors are never cast as romantic interests in love stories, while George joked he 'just wants to do a sex scene.' The couple seem comfortable in their chosen career path, but since the start of their relationship, George has rapidly gained weight. He reached a point where he had to pay for taxis everywhere due to his inability to walk long distances. When the father became pre-diabetic and was struggling to walk upstairs, he began taking the weight loss drug Mounjaro. Before turning to the jab, he was drinking up to five cans of Coca-Cola a day and often eating a full pizza and garlic bread in the evenings. In August, 2024, he started taking the medication from a private online pharmacy that offered it to him for free, and he has since lost up to two pounds a week. Now, six stone down, George's sugar cravings have gone and he only eats one main daily meal, often skipping breakfast entirely. George started taking weight loss jabs when he reached a point where he had to pay for taxis everywhere due to his inability to walk long distances (after weight loss) He said his food shop has seen 'less overspending on junk food' thanks to his lack of appetite and he no longer splashes out as much on taxis. But the content creator has received negativity online from critics who say he is 'cheating' by taking the medication. George and Sienna respond to hate comments in their typical, sarcastic way. Posing for a video, George claps back at critics who insist they 'can't see' any weight loss despite his claims. 'No weight loss? Are you insane?' George roars, before Sienna chimes in: 'He's wasting away at this point.' In another TikTok, George points to his still large belly and jokes: 'There's a six pack there - look at that.' The pair maintain that they choose willingly to 'embarrass themselves' online because it gives them the financial freedom to work non-conventional jobs and spend more time together. Sienna wrote: 'Yes, we may embarrass ourselves on the internet for a living, but it means we get to spend every school holiday with our son, send him to the best school and have the freedom to work when we choose to.' Their content's resounding message is that they love each other despite the backlash they get, and will remain committed to one another regardless of their appearance. Sienna said: 'The hate doesn't get to us. We love each other and nothing anyone says will change that. 'Our aim is to encourage people to accept themselves for who they are. Thank you to everyone who supports us and sends positive messages our way.'

I lost six stone on Mounjaro after gorging on entire pizzas and drinking five cans of Coca-Cola a day - but trolls are calling me 'lazy' for not shedding the weight naturally

A father who lost six stone in 11 months after taking Mounjaro has been criticised by trolls who say he is 'lazy' and 'taking the easy way out'. George Keywood, from London, became pre-diabetic and was struggling to walk upstairs when he began taking the weight loss drug last year. Before turning to Mounjaro, the 31-year-old was stuck in a rut, drinking up to five cans of Coca-Cola a day and often eating a full pizza and garlic bread in the evenings. But in August last year, he started taking the medication from a private online pharmacy that offered it to him for free, and he has since lost up to two pounds a week. Now, six stone down, George's sugar cravings have gone and he now only eats one main meal a day, often skipping breakfast entirely. He said his food shop has seen 'less overspending on junk food' thanks to his lack of appetite and he no longer splashes out as much on taxis, as losing weight means he is able to walk longer distances again. But the actor and content creator has received negativity online from critics who say he is 'cheating' by taking the medication. George says 'people love to judge' his situation, after he was also lambasted online when he was heavier, with social media users saying he was 'mismatched' with his slim wife Sienna. The pair met after Sienna, 30, spotted George playing the character Craig on the TV show 'People Just Do Nothing', which ran on BBC Three from 2014 to 2018. She fully supports George's weight loss as it has allowed him to be more active and play with their five-year-old son Oliver, whereas before she was often 'having to do everything' herself. George said: 'There's still a lot of negativity [online] with people saying I'm taking the easy way out or cheating, or, "Oh just go to the gym and be a real man". 'You can't win. There's always a reason for people to want to hate. I'm doing this for me, not them. 'There's been a lot of support too. I did a post on Facebook recently and all the comments were positive. 'For me, if I were to lose another 40kg, I feel like we'd be at normal levels at that point. 'I've been on it for nine months so if I can do another nine months and do the same again, I'll have overachieved. 'For me the maximum I want to be on it is two years. I think these changes can last longer than people think they can. George says that he wants to live until 70 or 80-years-old and see his son grow up, adding: 'You don't see fat people in the care homes.' Despite being overweight his 'whole life', the influencer says that it has never set him back or caused him any 'significant issues'. 'I guess I'm luckier in some respects that I never got bullied for being big,' he added. Prior to shedding the pounds, George would start every morning with scrambled eggs on toast with cheese, drinking a litre of milk on the side. After snacking on crisps and chocolate, he would eat a 'massive' sandwich for lunch, followed by more crisps and cola. Dinner would consist of a whole pizza and garlic bread, with another Coca-Cola to wash it all down. Each can of full sugar cola has a whopping 35g of sugar in it - and George would drink up five cans a day. The NHS says that adults should consume no more than 30g of free sugars daily, and George was drinking 175g of sugar from his soft drinks alone. He began taking a 2.5mg dose of Mounjaro in August 2024 and has worked his way up to the 12.5mg dose he takes now. 'My feet used to be so swollen I couldn't wear shoes, and now they're completely uninflamed and completely fine now. 'I was feeling rough with my pre-diabetes and struggling to walk upstairs too far. I thought, "it's probably too much at this point". 'For about five out of the seven days you don't think about food. It doesn't make you unable to stomach food but it turns off the desire to want to have meals or overindulge. 'Which is great because that's what I used to do. I was drinking four to five cans of full fat Coca-Cola a day, and now I'm on one a week. 'The desire for sweets has completely gone. These days I can just about stomach one meal a day.' The father-of-one says he would eat a large BBQ chicken pizza to himself and then also have a tub of ice-cream afterwards. Sienna fully supports George's weight loss as it has allowed him to be more active and play with their five-year-old son Oliver, whereas before she was often 'having to do everything' herself 'With Mounjaro, I tried to eat a pizza one day and threw up half an hour after,' he said. His wife has also seen a 'huge difference' in George following his weight loss. 'I barely ever see him eating to be honest,' Sienna said. 'On holidays, the difference I noticed is he can walk all day. 'Before, we'd go on holidays and I'd be dreading it, thinking we'd have to catch an Uber everywhere. 'Now it's like it used to be when we first met, he can walk around all day. He's just been happier. 'With our son, I felt like I had to do pretty much everything because we couldn't do very many active things.' Sienna recalled a time before George lost weight. She was carrying their son around Peppa Pig world on their own, with her husband 'traipsing along behind us, hating every minute'. She added: 'Now it feels like he does a lot more. He can take Oliver for days out. It's like the tables have turned. 'He's just really motivated and I'm really proud of him. He's made the decision to do this for his health and it's really benefited me and my son.'

Trolls called me ‘fat & disgusting' so I lost 6st on Mounjaro – now I'm a ‘cheat', I just want to see my son grow up

A DAD who lost six stone in less than a year thanks to weight-loss jabs has hit back at cruel trolls after they branded him a 'lazy cheat' for turning his life around. George Keywood, 31, became a viral target for online abuse when trolls mocked his weight, questioned his marriage and even made vile comments about his sex life. 4 But the People Just Do Nothing actor, who once tipped the scales at over 23st, is now hitting back after shedding 6st in 11 months using Mounjaro. Despite finally reclaiming his health, the dad says trolls have only upped their hate, accusing him of 'cheating' and 'taking the easy way out' by using weight-loss meds. George said: 'I used to get called fat and disgusting, now people say I've cheated and that I should've just gone to the gym like a 'real man'". 'You literally cannot win. But I'm not doing this for them. I'm doing this to stay alive, to be around for my son.' George's weight has long been a target for online bullies. In a previous video, trolls asked how he'd managed to 'pull' his slim and glamorous wife Sienna, 30, with one sicko even joking she must have 'used a truck'. Others made vile jibes about their sex life, writing, 'How do you get on her?' and 'Clearly no naughties happening!' George clapped back in a viral clip, standing proudly beside Sienna, saying: 'I do not know, I am stunning – I am what they call beautiful.' When the couple went to Paris with their five-year-old son last year, trolls continued their barrage. One even said, 'I've never been embarrassed for someone I don't know until I saw this mess!' after George appeared shirtless in their Airbnb. Couple Stands Strong Against Online Trolls While Downsizing Mansion He fired back, telling them: 'You're jealous, you're bitter, you hate yourself. So you want to attack someone who you think should be hating themselves. But I tell you right now, I'm far from it.' And Sienna, who married George in 2022, says the hate hasn't stopped since his weight loss either. 'People say I couldn't possibly be attracted to him because of his size,' she previously told Fabulous. ' People even try and chat me up in front of him.' 'I feel like there'd be less judgment if I was big too,' she added. 'It's more 'normal' to see two big people together, or a slim man and a large woman. But I love George and I always have.' George admits he was close to developing diabetes when he started Mounjaro in August 2024 through a private online pharmacy, who offered it to him for free. He was drinking up to five cans of Coke a day and eating entire pizzas and tubs of ice cream at night. At his worst, even walking upstairs left him breathless and exhausted. But now, he's lost 40kg, rarely feels hungry, and only eats one meal a day. He's cut out sweets, takes fewer taxis, and says his sugar cravings are 'completely gone'. George said: 'My feet used to be so swollen I couldn't wear shoes. Now they're back to normal. "I used to feel rough just walking around the house. But I've changed my life.' Wife Sienna says she's seen a 'huge difference'. 'Before, I had to do everything with Oliver,' she said. "Now George can walk all day, he's just happier. He takes our son on days out. It feels like we've switched roles.' The pair met after Sienna spotted George on TV playing Craig in the BAFTA-winning BBC Three comedy, which aired from 2014 to 2018. George now says he's aiming to stay on the jab for two years, with hopes of losing another 40kg. 'I think these changes can last longer than people think. Ultimately, you don't see fat people in care homes. 'I want to be around to see my son grow up. That's it. I'm not here to impress trolls. I'm here to live.' What to do if you lose too much weight too quickly whilst on Mounjaro IF you're losing too much weight too quickly while on Mounjaro, it's important to take action to avoid potential health risks like muscle loss, malnutrition, dehydration, and fatigue. Here's what you can do: Evaluate Your Caloric Intake Mounjaro reduces appetite, which can make it easy to eat too little. If you're losing weight too fast (more than two to three lbs per week after the initial adjustment period), try: Tracking your food intake to ensure you're eating enough calories (apps like MyFitnessPal can help). Increasing protein intake to preserve muscle mass (aim for 0.6–1g per pound of body weight). Adding healthy fats and complex carbs (e.g., avocados, nuts, whole grains) for balanced energy. Adjust Your Dosage (With Doctor's Approval) If your weight loss is too rapid or causing side effects, your doctor may: Pause dose increases or lower your dosage. Adjust your treatment plan to stabilise your weight loss. Strength Training & Exercise To prevent muscle loss: Incorporate resistance training at least two to three times per week. Stay active with low-impact exercises like walking or yoga. Hydrate & Manage Electrolytes Drink enough water (Mounjaro can reduce thirst). Electrolytes matter - Consider adding magnesium, sodium, and potassium if you feel weak or fatigued. Monitor for Malnutrition & Deficiencies Rapid weight loss can cause vitamin/mineral deficiencies (especially B12, iron, and electrolytes). If you experience: Fatigue, hair loss, or dizziness, ask your doctor about supplements. Consider Further Medical Guidance If your weight loss is excessive or causing health concerns, speak with your healthcare provider. They might adjust your dosage, diet, or exercise plan to help stabilise your weight loss. 4 4
