Chanelle Hayes showed off her impressive nine stone weight loss in a black crop top as she kicked off her wedding preparations on Sunday.

The Big Brother star, 35, showcased her slim frame in the casual number as she posed for an Instagram snap selfie in a bridal store.

Chanelle revealed that she has ‘said yes to the dress’ as she prepares to tie the knot with fiancé Dan Bingham next year.

The reality star, who met her beau in 2021 and got engaged a year later, in April 2022, gushed that she ‘can’t wait to get down the aisle now’. 

She penned: ‘I SAID YES TO THE DRESS!!!!!!! Swipe to see the dress style I chose! (kiddinggggg)

‘Thank you so so much to Louise at @lovecherishbridal for making me, my mum and my bridesmaids so welcome. I have had the best day today. 

‘Can’t wait to get down the aisle now! How can I keep this dress a secret for a year’. 

The star lost a staggering nine stone after undergoing a gastric sleeve operation in August 2020, which saw her drop from a size 18 to a size 10. 

It comes after Chanelle shared a series of loved-up snaps with her fiancé Dan Bingham last month.

Though she typically keeps her partner out of the spotlight – never sharing a picture of him until after their engagement – the mother-of-two shared a touching tribute gushing over her partner.

Posting a video to her Instagram, the star shared a slew of snaps of the pair from their engagement and since they met.

In one photo, the pair snap a selfie cuddling up to each other in bed. They appeared more smitten than ever as Chanelle places her hand on her fiancé’s chest and snuggled up to his cheek.

In another, dressed up for a big night out, Chanelle closes her eyes as she plants a kiss on his cheek.

Chanelle also shared a picture of herself pointing at her ring as they show off their sun-kissed tans.

The TV personality shares her son Blakely, with her ex-partner Matthew Bates, who she was in relationship with between 2009 and 2010.

She also has Frankie with Edward Oates, who she was with on-and-off from 2016 to 2017.

And showing off her new blended family, Chanelle shared sweet pictures of the couple spending time with her children.

The foursome could be seen beaming as they cuddled up on the couch while Dan snaps a selfie.

Sharing the adorable collection of photos, Chanelle gushed over her partner, admitting she never thought she would meet ‘someone like’ him.

She penned: ‘Didn’t think I would meet someone like you, but somehow I did.

‘I love you @danbing93 …. You are the best person in the entire world. ❤️ #love #couple #memories #engaged #family #happy #forever’.

The TV star underwent her gastric operation in 2020, and explained at the time that the operation was a ‘last resort’ after battling with her weight for years.

Following the operation, she explained the reasons for going under the knife, writing on social media: ‘It was an accumulation of things: medical issues related to obesity, mental health deterioration, I hardly left the house. I needed a second chance at my health.’

Chanelle was asked if she felt she had any options, to which she wrote: ‘Yes definitely. I would have continued eating myself into an early grave had I not tried surgery. It isn’t for everyone and I researched it extensively and it changed my life.’

And this month, she appeared on a podcast and explained that she believes the toxic unhealthy cycle she found herself in a few years ago was harder to break than if she had been addicted to heroin or alcohol.

The mother-of-two admitted she was in a ‘really bad place’ with finding how to create a healthy relationship with food and ended up going down the surgery route as a last bid resort.

‘I was in a really bad place with my eating,’ she tells Johnny Seifert on Secure The Insecure podcast.

‘Other people who haven’t experienced food addiction or the cycles of unhealthy eating and binge eating disorders would be like ‘oh my god, it’s some biscuits calm down ‘We all have some biscuits every now and again like chill out’.

‘But if that was alcohol or if that was heroin or some sort of drugs, and you just had one little bit of it, you would know for sure that that is your break in your sobriety.

‘It’s no different when it comes to this, you’ve really got to have the support to be able to stay on a lifelong healthy eats and are eaten in moderation with the occasional treat.’
