Daly: 'New mums are under pressure'

Tess Daly has insisted that she does not want to be "the poster girl" for losing baby weight.

The Strictly Come Dancing presenter has admitted that she is losing her pregnancy pounds but said that she understands that new mothers are "under enough pressure".

She told the News of the World: "I'm not trying to be the poster girl for losing baby weight quickly. I don't want to put anyone under undue pressure. New mums are under enough pressure as it is."

She added that she hadn't been dieting, saying: "Starving yourself slim is wrong. When I was modelling I became friends with girls who really did starve themselves."

Daly has also revealed that she is against plastic surgery.
