Kerry Katona has jumped to the defence of her 16-year-old daughter after she was blasted for promoting weight loss shakes on Instagram.

Kerry has defended her daughter against the backlash, writing in her new! magazine that Lilly-Sue is 'feeling great' now.

She added: “As you may have seen on Instagram, my Lilly has lost weight after using Herbalife.

"She's done so well and she looks amazing. I don't know exactly how much she's lost because we don't have scales in the house."

“I know it's controversial, but I think the Herbalife protein shakes are actually good for you.

"Lilly ate so much c**p during her GCSEs and she wanted to feel better, so I told her to try the shakes along with eating healthy meals. She feels great now."

"Thanks to my mum and Frankie encouraging me to have a healthier breakfast rather than my usual cereal toast or cup of tea with sugar ! This will be perfect going back to college too in September 💪 if you want more Info dm me, my mum or Frankie xx".

Herbalife has in the past caused concern after a number of experts claimed that the supplement could cause health issues - such as liver problems - in consumers.

However, Herbalife have refuted these claims.
