Gemma Ward might have a problem returning to the runway this year. Australian newspaper Sunday Telegraph ran a story saying Ward gained so much weight that she has been exercising madly. This is not the first time she has been put on the limelight due to her weight issues. When she walked the Chanel Spring 2008 runway in a denim bikini, she received so much backlash that according to the news, she wasn't able to book any other shows.
Other models have been on the news last year due to this weight issues. Two of my favorite models- Ali Michael and Coco Rocha- have been reported as well. When Ali got a bit healthier and gained five pounds, she found herself booking only 1 show and being rejected because "her legs were too fat for the runway." This is the girl who walked for Lagerfeld, Lacroix, Chanel, Galliano, Dior, Rodarte, and others. Coco Rocha was also reported for using laxative pills to help lose weight.
