And on her show, Revenge Body, she opened up even more about his death, saying,“My dad died in 2003. I was 19. And when it set in, I was like, you spiral. For me, my spiral was food. I gained so much weight because I was so internally just suppressing so many things that it was like, eating me alive, and I was literally eating anything."
