One of the reasons Lily has done this shoot, is to make a statement against sections of the media, particularly in the UK, who have for the past 2 years had their claws into her, holding her up as the bad side of modelling in the whole silly Size 0 debate. Lily is far far from size 0 but at the last but one LFW, they used her as their bad icon to roll out anytime there was a story to be had, in the same way that Kate was always held up to be the waif and such a bad body role model. Poor Lily didnât deserve any of that anymore than Kate did. At this year's LFW they again latched onto Lily just for the sake of it and some of the UK press was just stupid with one paper we know altering her picture aspect ratio deliberately. Donât always believe the images you see in the press!

For those that know her and can be seen from these pics, she is beautifully healthy and also very intelligent, passing her A levels with really good grades and working on a degree. As a model she is hugely successful and was worth millions even before her 18th birthday,

Lots of love Lily:)

Good post vegina. How the press could hold her up as an example of poor body image, heaven knows.

For those that dont know Lily is filming in a new production of St Trinnian's with Rupert Everett and Colin Firth. Someone asked me after my last post, just what grades she did get at A level! Well it is no secret she got 4 straight As and is going to be reading Politics and English at Cambridge:)

Sorry if this picture doesnt work. I am new to here!
