"We’re quite happy for men to parade around revealing their saggy boobs.
"We admire the taut pecs of the men on Love Island on our TV screens every night. But if a woman goes topless, all hell breaks loose."
Ulrika also opened up about having a breast reduction and being 'desperate' for smaller boobs.

Florence posted to her Instagram about wearing the sheer dress where she posted a statement about the backlash she'd received.
