Myleene: 'I couldn't cope being a size 8'

Myleene Klass shows she is back to her curvy best after the dramatic weight loss that earned her the nickname 'My-lean'.

The 28-year-old, who won new fans after parading in a white bikini on I’m A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!, admitted dropping to a size eight when her band Hear’Say split up.

Stunning Myleene shows off her preferred size 10 curves

The classically trained musician, now a size 10 and about to star in a Marks & Spencer ad campaign said: "I have gone against the accepted wisdom that the best things happen to women when they are at their thinnest.

"When I was at my smallest I was most unhappy. I was in a miserable relationship and my career was nowhere. The best things have happened to me when I am most natural and curvy."

She said her weight had ranged from size 8 to a size 14.
