Former X Factor star Honey G has shown off her impressive weight loss as she shared her latest song release. The rapper, 44, rose to fame on the popular ITV talent show in 2016.

She has since candidly revealed she has struggled with her weight previously. However, she has now proudly confessed that she has dropped from a size 18 dress size to a size 12 – and claims it has upped her “body confidence”.

Honey, whose real name is Anna Gilford, was seen dancing to her new track titled Nothing To Me on a roof terrace in London. She was alongside TV presenter Hayley Palmer. It comes as the full Strictly Come Dancing lineup has been confirmed.

Fans were quick to praise the star for her fun post. One user in the comments section gushed: “honey g your [sic] still an icon.” They added two flame emojis.

Another user also added a comment of four flame emojis, while another added: “Aww check yooooo,” with a raised hands emoji.

The TV personality previously explained she had “changed her body” after a series of gym routines during the Covid pandemic. She added she had also taken up running.

Speaking to Daily Star in 2023, the musician said: “I had a personal trainer for a year and a half, almost two years and we worked a lot on strength training and I started to see, coupled with all the running I was doing, I started to see my body change.”

Honey confessed at the time: “That’s why not a lot of people recognise me in the street anymore, it says online I’m unrecognisable which is true.

“But yeah, I’m not saying I miss being chased through a shopping centre by school kids, but seriously, in all honesty, when I started to see body shape change, it spurred me on even more.”

She also told Closer magazine: “I used to wear loose and baggy clothes that went up to a size 18, but I’ve thrown most of them away as my taste has matured. Now I wear outfits I wouldn’t have dreamt of wearing, and I can fit into nice underwear from Victoria’s Secret.”

Despite not being a regular on television these days, Honey G has kept herself busy. She has been seen performing at clubs and festivals throughout the UK.
