Fern Britton has admitted that she does not feel happier following her weight loss.

The This Morning presenter sparked controversy earlier this year when she revealed that she had a gastric band fitted to help her shed the pounds.

Despite losing 70Ibs, Britton said that she does not feel any better about herself.

"Am I happier this size than I was before? No," she revealed in a radio interview.

"Am I feeling better about myself this size than I was before? No."

However, Britton insisted that her weight loss has had its benefits, saying: "Shopping really was the biggest thing apart from the fact that I have done my health a lot of good.

"I can go and buy clothes now - and that is a lot of fun!"
