In response to fans’ comments, the mum-of-five previously stepped on the scales to prove nothing was wrong. However, now, she has admitted she “doesn’t know why” she is losing weight, adding she hoped medical tests could work out why she is facing this issue. In Katie’s video, she confessed: “Gone to the doctors about my weight.” “I’ve been up early at the doctors so she could do some bloods and because my veins are so s*** they had three attempts. “They could only fill two tubes up, so I’ve got to go back in two weeks. “And I’ve got to have my stitches out then because they looked at my little stab wound that I did. The reason I’m going to the doctors is because I keep losing weight and I don’t know why. So that’s that.” On Saturday the former glamour model revealed to fans that she had been taken to A&E. “Not what I had on my Bingo card for Friday night,” she wrote on another Snapchat post, in front of a picture of an A&E sign lit up. She has yet to reveal any other details. The publication reached out to her representatives for comment and they insisted Katie was “absolutely fine” and was in hospital for a general check-up and to get her stitches removed, nothing more. Previously, Katie told fans the weight loss was what she wanted to happen, after concerns were raised about how much she was slimming down by.

Yes that’s what I’ve wanted to do, I’ve wanted to lose weight. “Because… three, four years ago when I broke my feet I was in a wheelchair for ten months because they said I’d never walk again, and obviously you put weight on being in a wheelchair. And then I did all the IVF stuff, that also puts on weight. So yeah, I did put on weight and I hated it, I felt uncomfortable and it wasn’t me.” Last year, she also spoke on the Louis Theroux podcast about her struggle with her weight and unhappiness about her body. “I always said I haven’t got body dysmorphia,” she said. “But there’s definitely something, I don’t know what it is. I’ve never looked in the mirror and thought I’m pretty.” Friends and family have also expressed concern about Katie after the star turned up late – or not at all – to a series of events. A source said: “Katie has been turning up late to events – or not turning up at all – and those close to her are worried that she might be getting out of control. “They’ve witnessed it before. She’s trying to do it all, but she’s burning herself out. It doesn’t seem to be sinking in.”
