Emily Atack’s dramatic transformation continued as she showed off her new bob on Instagram on Thursday.
The actress, 36, who was hit by claims she’s using weight-loss jabs earlier this week after displaying a slender frame, showed off her shorter locks in a new snap.
Emily decided to ditch her longer hairstyle in favour of a voluminous bob as she paid a visit to hairdresser Paul Edmonds in London.
Dressed in a simple black outfit, The Inbetweeners star posed up a storm for the camera and captioned the post: ‘Bobviously’ (sic).
Catherine Tyldesley ‘Fit’; while others commented: ‘Oh Em!!! Stunning’ and ‘You look stunning’.
It comes a carousel of photos that Emily shared sparked an outrageous reaction from her followers.

Her comments section was brimming with messages but many fans rushed to defend the star after some suggested she had turned to weight loss aids.
‘Skinny jabs are jabbing’ wrote one follower as another asked ‘on the jabs? Looks good tho.’
Others questioned: ‘Are you on Mounjaro?’ and ‘That jab is making its rounds!’
One fan pointed out in defence of Emily: ‘These comments! Aren’t we over talking about women’s bodies?’
‘The thing is, women can’t win. We are either too fat or too skinny. While I appreciate you admiring her a bit larger, her size or any woman’s size is not for public comment. Let’s just say she is stunning,’ agreed another.
Another said: ‘Its amazing that she’s posted a whole reel of lovely Xmas photos and 80% of the comments are about her body.’
Emily’s celeb pal Katherine Ryan also had her say, simply writing ‘GIRL’ with a string of fire emojis.

A representative for Emily has been contacted by the Daily Mail for comment.
The actress welcomed her first child with her scientist fiancé Alistair Garner, in June 2024, a baby boy named Barney.
Just months after the birth Emily revealed she had been inundated with questions about her weight, but had refused to rush back to the gym.
Speaking to Jamie Laing on his Great Company podcast in November 2024, Emily shared: ‘There’s something quite liberating about having a baby. Your body goes through so much and you genuinely look at your body as a completely different vessel.
‘Being pregnant and being desexualised, looking at your body, you create a human inside you, then you give birth to your child – which by the way is mental – you get home and the first thing people say to you is, when are you going to get back in the gym?’
Emily laughed: ‘Are you kidding? I’ve just created a human, I am exhausted! I’ve just tried to push a human out of me and had it ripped out of my stomach.

‘The last thing I want to do is go to the gym but the first thing you’re expected to do is get back into shape.
‘Where’s the congratulations for being a mother? Instead it’s when are you going to get the baby weight off… I’m not back at the gym at the minute, I’ve actually put on more weight since giving birth. I’m just enjoying this bit.’
Emily revealed that she’s always had a ‘healthy relationship’ with her weight but was unprepared for the comments she’d receive in her breakout role as Charlotte Hinchcliffe in The Inbetweeners.
‘Everybody started talking about my weight,’ she explained. ‘There was a whole Facebook page dedicated to me/Charlotte Hinchcliffe. I couldn’t believe how awful it was, people talking about my weight.
‘People would then try and be positive and say “at least we’re seeing curvier girls now playing sexier roles on television”. I didn’t even know I was curvy!
‘I was a size eight, a tiny little body, but to some people it was the first time they’d seen a girl that wasn’t really, really skinny. They were used to seeing very underweight actresses playing the sexy girls.’
Speaking about the juxtaposition of posing for lads’ mags while simultaneously being trolled online, she added: ‘Some people were saying I’m sexy and beautiful and others saying I’m fat and ugly. It was so confusing.

‘Luckily I’ve never ever had any unhealthy eating habits, or dieting, I’m so f***ing lucky that I’ve never in my life.
‘I don’t go on diets. There have been times in my life where I’ve thought I’ve got to lay off the wine for a bit and get in shape for this new role or for my mental health I’ve gone to the gym a bit more but I’ve never become thinner because of being called fat. I’ve had to train my brain.’
Emily revealed her engagement news last summer on Instagram, with a loved-up snap with her shirtless fiancé Alistair, 40, showing off her dazzling diamond ring, with the caption: ‘It’s Friday, I’m in love’.
The couple have known each other for almost three decades as her mother is the sister of Alistair’s stepmother Jane Garner.
They were introduced after Emily’s aunt started dating Alistair’s father Stephen Garner in the early 90s, eventually getting married in 1994, before Stephen tragically passed away in 2023, leaving Emily devastated.
