Chelsea player has claimed she ‘gets called fat all the time’Emma Hayes says subject must be treated with sensitivity
Chelsea’s manager, Emma Hayes, has called for greater education around body image after Fran Kirby’s matter-of-fact admission that she covers up because she “gets called fat all the time”.
Kirby made the statement in a Chelsea documentary on her return to playing after a knee injury. “Fran, how are you wearing a jacket?!” someone off camera asks her. “Because I get called fat all the time, so I have to cover it up,” she says.
