I've not generally been a fan of Kate Spicer, apart from when she pipped someone else I dislike (a fellow student at City University's post grad diploma in journalism - she's now a very successful novelist. Humpf) to a sex columnist job on GQ. I think perhaps it is her natural facial expression as seen on Masterchef, eyes bulging and nose turning up with pomp and circumstance at the poor contestants' food. Also perhaps because it seems to me that most of the women I dislike show traits that are very clear in myself. (I don't have bulging eyes, but then, neither does Kate...)
But I was engrossed in Super-Skinny Me: The Race to Size Zero on Channel 4. Kate was an overweight girl in a mostly boy boarding school (I'm guessing Marlborough?) and, like pretty much every woman I know at one stage or another has a propensity towards eating disorders major or minor.
Her journey was vile. Read it in The Times. I hope she has got over it.
