Fitness Comments Off on Love Island’s Claudia Fogarty shuns glam fame as she eyes up fitness career – The Mirror

Claudia Fogarty may be riding the Love Island wave but she has explained she has no intentions of living the glamorous influence life and would rather help people

Love Island star Claudia Fogarty has revealed she would rather focus on her fitness career than be an influencer after leaving the ITV villa.

The daughter of motorcycle racer Carl Fogarty opened up about life after appearing on the dating programme and admits that she hopes her platform will allow her to help others.

Claudia, 28, entered the villa on day 23 but was subsequently dumped on day 45 alongside Keanan Brand after the pair were evicted by Maxwell and Olivia.

In a candid revelation, the Blackburn-born starlet has shared how she hopes her appearance on the show will help others change their lives.

"I think coming out of something like this, it's nice to kind of help others," she said before adding: "Tell people your journey, tell people what you struggle with in life and hopefully reach out to people and inspire people to do the same.

"I think this platform gives you the chance to reach out to people and tell your story and hopefully help other people out there."

Claudia went on to explain that before going to South Africa to star in the show, she didn't want to become the typical influencer and follow in the footsteps of other previous Islanders.

"I wanted to come out and follow my journey and get to grips with what I want to do," she added before going on to explain: "Fitness has always been a big thing for me and battling with my weight from time to time so I think it's good to come out there and be a little bit of an inspiration to people, hopefully."

Ahead of entering the villa, Claudia struggled with her body image and initially rejected the offer from ITV bosses several years ago due to not feeling secure enough.

But now, she's more comfortable in her skin than ever before and believes the show is rapidly becoming more inclusive as they showcase a different variety of bodies.

She said: "I'm not going to compare myself to people as much as I used to and it's nice to see people there that have got different shapes.

"Not everybody is the same size and it's nice to see that but knowing you're going to be in a bikini all day every day with millions of people watching you on TV, you are always thinking about that as well."

Claudia, who recently recorded an episode of fellow Love Island star Scott Thomas' Learning As I Go podcast went on to explain that during her time on the show, she was "subconsciously always" thinking about the cameras.

"A lot of people have said to me, 'you look better in real life'," she added.
