Marshall Trashed Again

More debate over plus size pageant contestant Chloe Marshall continues in England. Marshall is the first plus size model to make it to the finals of the Miss. England pageant. However, Marshall is being attacked in the media for her size. ABC News says "the British press chided the size-16 Miss England model as 'fat, lazy and a poster girl for ill health.'" Former Miss England judge Monica Grenfell says "What she's demonstrating isn't bravery but a shocking lack of self-control. Instead of flaunting her figure, Chloe ought to own up to the truth. She is fat and she got that way by over-eating."

I think its appaelling how Grenfell is trashing Marshall in the media. Grenfell is promoting dieting on her website but everyone knows diets do not work. People gain the weight back after they are off the diet. Grenfell's platform is diet, fitness, style, and health. She has also written : 5 Days to a Flatter Stomach, Beat Your Body Chaos, Fabulous in a Fortnight, Get Back Into Your Jeans, Cellulite Buster, The Revenge Diet and Crash Diet. I think she is attacking Marshall to get more publicity and try to convince people to buy her books. The fashion industry is trying to get a variety of sizes so why not give Marshall a chance to prove she can handle the fashion world.
