Hilary Duff: 'I regret being skinny'

Hilary Duff has reportedly revealed that she became too slim during her later teenage years.

The singer and actress admitted that she does not think she was happy with herself while she was slimmer.

She told Health: "I got pretty skinny when I was between 17 and 19.

"At the time I was starting to become aware of what people said about me and how I looked in pictures. I regret it because I don't think I was happy then."

She explained: "It really helps to have a partner that loves everything about you and makes you feel really beautiful."
