Jonathan Ross’s daughter Honey has been left furious on Instagram after one of her topless snaps was deleted.
A warning flagged on her account showed that the snapshot of Honey with a friend sitting topless on the beach had been removed for violating nudity guidelines, even though it showed nothing but her bare back.
Official community guidelines state that snaps showing “fully nude sexual intercourse, genitalia, and butt close-ups” are not allowed on the site, including “some photos of female nipples.”
However, Honey’s post featured none of these things, as she donned a pair of black bikini bottoms to ensure her butt was covered and away from the camera, calling out Love Island for its lack of diversity of types. of body
Honey has now called the move “fatphobic”, posting on her Instagram Stories: “Hate to see a boss win. It’s a non-sexual vacation photo, the only difference is that I’m fat.”

“I could go and find a million examples of skinny equivalents of photos like this that are still standing and fine, but honestly, I’m so tired. Not an anus in sight, I’ll add!
“I don’t even need to find an example, Love Island is on TV right now. Insta is littered with photos of people in bikinis and bathing suits.
“My point is again shown, I would not be invited or go on a show like that as the world is still so profoundly fatphobic. My body is somehow considered more sexualized or vulgar because it is considered outside the norm.
She added: “My body is valid. My body has kept me alive. I’m going to wear a bikini on vacation and sunbathe (lathered in SPF) topless. Like people have done with European Christmas cards for years and years.”
Honey hit the social media platform
Posting the topless snap, in which Honey donned a pair of black bikini bottoms to show off her tattoos, she wrote: “There is nothing wrong with this. It is a body, on a beach, in summer”.
The body positivity campaigner was also keen to be a role model for other women, adding: “There’s nothing wrong with yours either if you find yourself sitting at home watching Love Island this summer, caught in a sea of comparison.
“I’m more than happy to live my life without Instagram, but it’s fucking bleak that bodies outside of what Mark Zuckerberg finds acceptable continue to decline due to their fleeting visit to the mainstream due to censorship.”
Honey then said she’s hosting a podcast episode on the subject, adding that she doesn’t want to “bang” Love Island as she knows a handful of “wise and compassionate souls” from the show.
She tagged the platform with fat phobia.
The star continued, “However, it’s moments like this that make me think of the people who took over the body positivity movement.
“I stole it from people who really needed the safe space. Community. The representation.
“We saw you hunched over gathering elastic skin to pretend you were a bum, and we see you now, as you slowly remove the plus-size sections of your branding.”
She clarified, “Also know that I am not upset or angry. Just exhausted by it. When she was a little younger, she had an endless fight for this, but after the last two years, mom is tired.
“I just want to be hot and fat in peace.”
