Love Island star Zara McDermott explored disordered eating and social media in a BBC Three film.
Katie, who's in her fourth year studying medicine at the University of Liverpool, was diagnosed with anorexia and bulimia in 2016.
"It's something that is hard to talk about," Katie says. "The actual illness itself is very secretive. "By having it as more of a common conversation and people being more open about it, hopefully more people will be feeling comfortable in starting those conversations."Zara opens up in the documentary about her own experience with disordered eating
In the film, Zara also opens up about her concerns about whether she was influencing her followers in a negative way by sharing her meals and exercise routines."I think a lot of us with social media followings have triggered someone in some way at some point so it's really important for me to take accountability."She also has an Instagram account which she uses to chart her recovery, sharing her own exercise routines, recipes and weight loss updates.
"However, it's important to remember that the relationship between social media and eating disorders is complex."
