Your views: Rebecca Adlington's body insecurity fears

Olympic gold-medallist Rebecca Adlington has tearfully revealed her body insecurity fears on I'm A Celebrity ... Get Me Out Of Here!

Here a selection of ITV News viewers opinions on the subject:

It's very sad Becky feels this way - she is a gold medallist and world champion and an inspiration to millions, but as [with] most girls I know, seems to be trapped in a preconceived idea of what is pretty.

– Paul Smith

It's sad that Rebecca feels insecure because of her looks and I agree that the media has a big part to play in the way women and men portray themselves, but I don't think Amy should have been made to feel that she is in the wrong for being pretty and using her strongest qualities (her looks) to make a career.

– Mandy Rodgers

Attractive women shouldn't be made to feel bad because of others insecurities. I'm sorry!! That's my opinion.

– Rachel Gavin
