Some fans feel let down by the Channel 4 star after defending her when she was accused of using Mounjaro, despite the fact that she appears unrecognizable from her days on Gogglebox and Celebs Go Dating.
Gogglebox star Amy Tapper got herself into a furious clash with a disgruntled fan who accused her of lying about her 7.5 stone weight loss. The 26-year-old hit back after being branded a liar, with one fan claiming they felt “cheated” after she admitted using ‘skinny jab’ Mounjaro to lose her weight.
Amy, who previously promoted Muscle Food on her Instagram account, appeared on ITV’s Good Morning Britain on Thursday, coming clean about her decision to use the controversial weight loss medication. But one fan took aim at Amy, accusing her of deceiving her loyal followers.
The fan claimed on social media that she felt cheated because she frequently displayed her Muscle Food as being delivered and exercising on her Instagram page. Although she uses the injection naturally, don’t come on TV and say it when she is receiving moral support.

But Amy, who left the Channel 4 show in 2017, jumped to defend herself, replying: “If you watch the whole interview you’ll hear that I started the injections last June, I haven’t done the diet you are talking about since 2023 so there’s been no lying here.”
The fan continued to accuse Amy of deceiving the fans who had been standing up for her despite Amy’s insistence that she had been truthful. You didn’t say you were taking the injection, they replied, “but you didn’t say that.”
“I am aware that losing it is nobodies’ business if you are,” I say. However, when you posted those before and after photos the day before, someone [commented that you had been using] injections. A few of us said, “No, she has been doing it the natural way,” as we had assumed but were unaware that you had been taking it.
Amy didn’t reply to the comment, with many of her other fans jumping in to defend the star. One wrote: “The injections only help her to not overeat. The rest she has to do herself, diet and exercise. Lots of people take the injections alongside slimming world, weight watchers etc. You still have to eat the right foods and put in 100% effort.”
During her interview on GMB, Celebs Go Dating star Amy admitted: “That is what I’ve been advised by my doctor. Because I think a lot of the way that people look at the injection is as a quick fix.
“It’s quick, but it won’t fix you forever,” it is. My body will start acting like it did the first time, which means, yes, I’ll be on it forever. We’ll go over it and see what might happen, but I’m taking the most at the moment.
ITV Daytime star Dr Amir Khan was listening into the conversation, and he acknowledged that Amy had a ‘compelling story’ to tell with her health journey but did insist that two years was the maximum time an individual should take the injection for in general.
He continued, “That two years gives me plenty of time to make those changes, perhaps through movement, sleep, and stress, that all contribute to weight. I don’t believe you need to be on it because a lot of that will be excess weight if you only have about three stone to lose.
