    TVB artiste Christine Kuo (苟芸慧) took a hiatus from work last year to recover from hypothyroidism, a hormonal disorder that led to her significant weight gain. Christine’s weight fluctuated over the months and she faced media scrutiny for her weight gain. This summer, after successfully shedding a few more pounds, Christine went to Brazil to host the World Cup event for TVB. However, Christine was not offered any more lucrative jobs since then.

    Reportedly, TVB was not very pleased with Christine’s slow progress in weight loss and decided to put her career on hold until she slims down further. Christine made an appearance on August 30 with Ruco Chan (陳展鵬) at the Changchun Film Festival, but reports say that Christine’s invite was last-minute. It was said that the organizers invited her because she was fluent in Mandarin.

    Christine’s career has suffered due to her weight gain. A source close to Christine said she had lost many sponsors and TVB could not find suitable jobs for the former beauty queen. The majority of Christine’s monthly salary is used to pay the rent for her apartment in Tseung Kwan O. The source added that fortunately Christine had savings from previous jobs. “She can still hang on for a little longer.”

    Her future unknown, Christine is under a lot of stress. Rumors say that her mental health is compromised and her depression worsened. The source said that Christine had been so depressed that she gave up on losing more weight.

    Poor girl. I never really liked seeing her in TVB dramas because of her horrible Cantonese, but this is sad.

    The media need to get a life, on what planet is she considered fat? Most of HK actresses don't have a set of AAA cups between them....

    There's nothing wrong with a bit of junk in the trunk ...
