The TV personality reacted to the cover writing:
As Britain battles an ever-worsening obesity crisis, this is the new cover of Cosmo.
Apparently we’re supposed to view it as a ‘huge step forward for body positivity.’ What a load of old baloney.
This cover is just as dangerous & misguided as celebrating size zero models.
Piers got a lot of support for his position, but some people called him out and told him that he is fat-shaming Jess.
In reply, Tess said:
To everyone saying I’m a burden to the British health care system, I’m american so you don’t have to worry about my fat ass. Worry about what horrible people you are by whining about how me being on the cover of a glossy magazine impacts your small minded life.
Tess' Cosmo article is about her battling depression over her weight. She also opens up about being sexually assaulted when she was younger. Tess posted the cover of the mag herself, saying she was proud of the way it looked and hoped it would change the attitude of young girls who might be ashamed of the way they look.
