Frankie’s charitable outing comes after she recently discussed her ongoing body dysmorphia battle. 

Speaking to Bobby Norris and Stephen Leng on FUBAR Radio’s Access All Areas show, Frankie emotionally revealed that she ‘always pressured’ herself into losing weight.

The sister of Joey Essex explained she felt pressured to look a certain way when she was younger.

Frankie sweetly added that her personal trainer boyfriend Luke has now taught her to ‘love who I am’. 

She emotionally shared: ‘When I was younger, I did. When I was younger, I didn’t know, obviously, it was a big wild world to us both…

‘I thought I was big and when I look back, I was tiny when I first started TOWIE. I was so skinny, but I thought I was big.’

Talking about her body dysmorphia battle when she was younger, Frankie said: ‘I had this, what is it called, body dysmorphia.  

‘Because I used to be quite big when I was younger, like in school, and I lost loads of weight and I was really slim, but I still thought I was big in my head.’

Frankie added that she ‘always pressured’ herself into losing weight and is happy that the new ‘ideal’ body shape for women is now ‘all about the curves’.
