Married At First Sight's Nadia opens up about eating disorder: 'I suffered from bulimia'

Married At First Sight's Nadia has revealed she lived with an eating disorder from the age of 18.

"I remember struggling with my weight, and I suffered from bulimia from the age of 18 to 21," the Brisbane model and flight attendant told OK!.

"I’ve been modelling since 1999 and it was a very different era of modelling. It was about being anorexic-looking and I was obsessed with rowing, so I struggled to do both."

On Monday night's episode, Nadia's husband Anthony outraged viewers by critiquing her body as he picked out an outfit for her to wear on their date.

"Nadia doesn't have the boobs for that," he said on the show. "She's got no boobs."

But Nadia says that she's now content with her body and in a healthy place.

"I’m a fit, healthy person. I can’t remember the last time that I was concerned about what I ate or my size," she told OK!. "I love my doughnuts and still pay myself out when I eat too many, but I’m happy."

And she has previously told TheFIX that Anthony's attempts to stake his claim over her on the show do not sit well.

"My eyes were twitching [when he said 'Nadia's mine' at an early commitment ceremony]. Straight away, I thought wow, no you cannot say that," Nadia told us. "I'm an independent woman. I am my own entity. You're you. I am me."
