A Z-LIST celeb has been slammed after making disgusting ‘fat’ comments about a stunning TV presenter.

Fame-hungry Tong began commenting on a video of Amy playing tennis which she posted on her Instagram account.

In a string of abusive comments, he told the 5’ 2” size 10 beauty she had let herself go and looked like she was a size 20.

He wrote: “How did you get so fat!?

“You look nothing like before?”

After gorgeous Amy replied to say she was happy with the way she looks, Tong replied again saying: “Okay, thanks for that speech, but you built a career and name up on your looks and decide to throw it all away being a Size 20 or whatever you are now.

“I am advising you to change your lifestyle and go on a diet.

“Seriously.”

Stunned social media users chimed in to defend the presenter from the unprovoked abuse.

One described her as “one of the best looking reporters, if not the best looking”.

But Tong continued his tirade, telling her she “shouldn’t head out the door” looking the way she does.

He also wrote: “You honestly are telling me you do not think your fat?

“Be serious now.

“Stop lying.”

But Amy – who also appeared in Nuts, The Daily Star Sunday and Loaded before switching careers – brushed off the “sad” comments.

She said: “He’s just a very sad person – I mean he obviously has a problem with women.

“I’m actually quite flattered, because he’s known for trolling people but he usually targets quite big celebs.”

Tong has a reputation for his sick online taunts aimed at famous people in his constant quest for publicity.

In 2012 he made headlines with his disgusting comments about the death of Take That star Gary Barlow’s baby.

When challenged, he said: “When you’re as wealthy as I am, you can say, do, and think what you like without penalty.”

Tong was also slammed for advertising slimming pills on Twitter in 2011, which critics branded an endorsement of “controlled anorexia”.

Amy added: “Of course I’m less conscious of my diet than I used to be when I was a glamour model, but I still love the way I look.

“I’m a very healthy, active person and that’s what matters.

“Body shaming has gone too far.”

The journalist – who now co-hosts a Saturday sports show on The Hub 106 radio and is presenter on Sports Tonight Live – is now training for the British 10k run in two weeks.
