Reality star forced to quit gym after making ‘creepy’ discovery

A British reality star revealed she was left in tears and forced to cancel her gym membership after uncovering a man’s “embarrassing” act.

A British reality has been forced to quit her gym after discovering a man had been taking photos of her without her knowing.

Amber Gill appeared on the 2019 season of UK Love Island and is currently living in Dubai.

But the 24-year-old broke down in tears when one of her followers alerted her to a breach of her privacy while working, The Sun reports.

Amber – who won Love Island the year she appeared – was taking part in a Q&A on her Instagram when someone posted: “Can you tell my friend to stop taking photos of you in gymnation please.”

Horrified, Amber replied: “I dunno why you’re putting laughing faces that’s super super embarrassing. I would be highly embarrassed to be friends with such a loser.

“This is actually severe bad vibes. So whoever is doing that stop you f**king creep. And now I will have to change gyms. F**king weirdos.”

Revealing her upset, Amber continued: “Sorry I was going to continue answering questions but that has genuinely threw me off and made me feel soooo uncomfortable. I even shed a tear.

“I always train in the ladies only section and come to the main gym and men have to ruin it.”

Amber previously said she spends most of her time in Dubai as it makes her “happier and less anxiety ridden” there.

She admitted she would never return to London if it wasn’t for friends or work there.

She still has her apartment in the UK, but has been looking to buy somewhere in the United Arab Emirates.

Unfortunately, she’s not the first woman to receive unwanted attention at the gym.

A personal trainer in the US was praised for standing up to a “creepy” guy at the gym who was staring at her while she exercised back in November.

Heidi Aragon, who posts to social media under the handle @fit_with_heidi, caught the incident on camera and shared the footage on TikTok, captioned: “Don’t sit there and tell me you’re not doing something when I have proof.”

In the video, she put her phone on a bench to film herself while doing squats, before stopping when she spotted the man walking over.

“This creepy old guy at the gym kept coming over and staring at me,” she explained.

“So I told my husband, and he came over and worked out next to me.”

Her husband’s presence, though, did little to deter the other man, who continued to stare at Heidi.

“I thought he got the picture. I attempted to do my set. Then I got fed up and went over and addressed him,” she added.

Heidi eventually has enough and can heard telling the man to “stop this” after he walks out of the shot.

“I told him if he’s gonna work out in this corner, he needed to stop staring and making me uncomfortable – his response was, ‘I’m just looking around’,” she said.
