"Hate on me as much as you like! But I like being curvy! #ShakeWhatYourMummaGaveYa," she wrote.

One fan said: "Too right and there's nothing of you, you're a size 6 to 8! Grrrrrr it makes me soooo mad."

Harmer replied: "Oh I know! No wonder there's so many girls that feel insecure!"

She told another supporter: "I know people are ridiculous! But I've never let it get to me and it won't start getting to me now!"

Harmer also revealed that she had a "lovely" training day with Simone, which featured an appearance from her younger sister Betsy.

She told Strictly co-star Lisa Riley that her only problem at the moment on the show was "being sexy". "It's not coming naturally!" she wrote.

Strictly starts on Friday, October 5 on BBC One.
