Zara McDermott rages at fans accusing her of 'lying' about her healthy eating

Made in Chelsea and former Love Island star Zara McDermott came up against some critics this week after she shared a number of sweet images.

The 24-year-old posted an array of snaps to Instagram, as she posed while holding a gigantic portion ice cream.

Sharing the seemingly innocent pics she struck a number of happy poses alongside her boyfriend Sam Thompson, 27, his sister Louise Thompson, and her fiancé Ryan Libbey.

Smiling for the camera, the couples readied themselves for a treat as they stood in front of ice-cream van offering up some spectacular goods.

The blonde bombshell, who normally promotes healthy eating on her A Day With Zara Instagram page, could be seen enjoying a sizeable tub of ice cream.

In fact, each of the clan held their own individual ice-cream delights, including Oreo cookies, marshmallows, sprinkles and a double flake.

Though lots of fans couldn’t wait to pile on the compliments under the cute image, many felt that Zara had lied about her diet.

The former X Factor Celebrity beauty was caught in the firing line, with followers suggesting she had only posed for the snap – but wouldn’t actually be eating the ice-cream.

One fan exclaimed: “There’s no way Zara eats ice cream like that and looks as amazing as she does.”

While another agreed: “Yeah, she 100% just bought that huge tub of ice-cream to pose with it. What a waste eh?”

The unwarranted comments seemed to annoy fitness fanatic Louise, who leapt in to defend her brother’s girlfriend.

Hitting out, Louise said: “I assure you you are wrong ! We both eat healthy balanced diets and munch on treats when we fancy! Nothing wrong with a bit of ice cream in the sun.”

It wasn’t just the matter of healthy eating that seemed to rattle the cage of some eagle-eyed fans, who vented their frustrations about social distancing during the coronavirus lockdown.

Comments flooded beneath the seemingly innocent post, suggesting the reality TV stars had flouted the lockdown rules by not keeping a safe two-metre distance.

One fan fumed: “Sickening that just because you guys are celebs you think that you can break lockdown rules to get a stupid picture together!”

Having to explain her living arrangements for a second time now, Zara clapped back: “We live together. We have done since 23rd March. We have put this on our social media HUNDREDS of times. We chose to isolate together since day one.”
