The latest episode of Bigg Boss 19 took an emotional turn as Ashnoor Kaur broke down while sharing her journey with body-image issues.

Ashnoor Reveals Her Struggles With Hormonal Imbalance and Stress
Ashnoor Kaur confessed that she has faced body-image challenges since her teenage years. “This has been a very big part of my life. As a teenager, I did suffer from body-image issues. I’ve never shared this before. I’ve always had hormonal imbalance, and my body tends to bloat in stressful situations,” she said emotionally. She explained that before entering the Bigg Boss 19 house, she lost nearly nine kilos, but the stressful environment caused her body to bloat again. According to Ashnoor, everyone’s body reacts differently to stress—some lose weight while others gain it—and her body naturally reacts by retaining water and appearing fuller.

In her heartfelt revelation, Ashnoor shared that she had battled eating disorders in the past. “There even came a stage where I had eating disorders. I wouldn’t eat, I used to starve myself,” she confessed, her voice trembling. The actress mentioned how she’s been conscious of her food habits for years. “Since I was 14 years old, I’ve grown up in front of the camera. Since then, I haven’t even touched junk food.

Ashnoor directly addressed Tanya Mittal during the episode, expressing her disappointment. “If you claim to be spiritual and caring but still shame others behind their back, that’s hypocrisy.

Her statement received applause both inside and outside the house, as many viewers commended her courage to speak up against body-shaming.

Gauahar revealed that Tanya had called Ashnoor “haathi” (elephant) and made hurtful comments like “She doesn’t look 21” and “She’s so chubby.” Gauahar’s words struck a chord as she added, “If you put others down to make yourself feel prettier, then you’re not beautiful at all. True beauty comes from kindness.”
