The Heart FM presenter was the target of vicious comments about her body after landing at Brisbane Airport last Sunday.

As she prepares to strip off for the famous Jungle Shower, Kelly, 46, a former model, urged viewers to be accepting of the way she looked.

The star said: "Obviously, I am not a 20-year-old bikini model any more. Life changes and your body changes.

"And I just hope people are accepting of me and how I look now, and not comparing me to how I used to look. You know, I am a very different person.

"I am older, but I am still strong and I am still fit, and that is the most important thing."

Healthy

Instead, she said she has embraced her curves.

"I feel really confident. I feel like my body is in good shape. I just feel great," she says. "I am 46, I embrace my curves. I embrace my body. I ran a marathon this year, so I am proud of that."

Kelly has been forced to address comments about her figure for years. She once said: "I have always been a curvy girl and I'm proud of that."
