Van Outen developing a 'telly belly'

Denise Van Outen fears that she has been piling on the pounds since she joined the cast of Where The Heart Is.

"The catering is good and so you eat proper meals," the former Big Breakfast host told Sky News. "It's healthy really but you tend to overeat a bit. You have a proper breakfast and a massive lunch. It's been fun. I've enjoyed stuffing my face.

"Normally when you're filming you just have a snack or a sandwich but there you'd have bangers and mash or curry."

She added: "Doing this means I've been eating a lot. Apparently this is the thing that I'm told you get called 'telly belly' - and I've got it."
