DEMI Jones has revealed that she’s gained weight and suffered from horrific mood swings since beating thyroid cancer.
The reality star, 23 – who shot to fame on the first winter Love Island in 2020 – was diagnosed with the disease in May last year.
Demi first noticed the lump back in 2019, but it was only after her stint on the ITV dating show that she decided to get it checked.
After a year-long battle, the redhead beauty was finally told she was cancer free and has given us an update on how she’s been feeling.
Speaking exclusively to The Celeb Report at the No7 Pro Derm Scan launch party, Demi said: “I got the all-clear before Christmas…
“I think I’m just learning to adapt with my body and the hormones.

“I’ve got really bad mood swings, my weight is fluctuating, I’m trying to balance it.”
“The Full Monty was huge because everyone had gone through a similar thing or knew someone and it was really reassuring.”
Thyroid cancer develops in your thyroid gland, which is located in your neck, and is usually noticed when a lump forms there.
The cells within the thyroid grow too quickly and create a lump.
There are four types which include: papillary carcinoma, follicular carcinoma, medullary thyroid carcinoma, anaplastic thyroid carcinoma.
Back in April 2021 April broke down in tears as she revealed that she had found a lump.
She had to undergo emergency surgery to have the potentially cancerous lump that was the size of a gold-ball removed from her neck, and was later told that she had cancer.
Demi was only diagnosed following months of delayed appointments due to the pandemic and after pushing doctors for further tests.
Over the past year, the influencer has been very open with fans about her journey and regularly kept them updated.
