Lauren London Gained Weight during Filming of a Movie – Her Recent Look

After making her return to the small screen, Lauren London’s weight loss made headlines. It was not the first time the famous actress’s physique had caught the public’s attention; however, she revealed that she relied on a healthy diet and the support of her late partner to remain confident.

London starred alongside Jonah Hill in Netflix’s series about an interracial couple and caught social media users by surprise with her new appearance. While some people were surprised by her looks and claimed she was “fat,” other users favored London’s new physique.

London is not new to receiving backlash about her appearance, as she took to Instagram after welcoming her second child to address comments about her weight gain. However, London revealed that a healthy diet was key to losing weight.

This Is Not the First Time Lauren London Garnered Attention for Gaining Weight

In 2017, London put on a few pounds after welcoming her second child with her late partner, Nipsey Hussle. As Twitter users took to the social media platform to criticize her appearance, London’s fans quickly came to her defense.

One person wrote, “Y’ALL THINK LAUREN LONDON LOOKS FAT BECAUSE Y’ALL DON’T REMEMBER WHAT NORMAL WOMEN LOOK LIKE ANYMORE!!” Another shared, “Lauren London gave birth six months ago; why she still fat?’ Sis, you 20. What’s your mama excuse?”

A third typed, “Thick…I think she looks beautiful…? She has always been gorgeous.” London also took to Instagram to address the comments about her body after having her child and wrote:

“When I decided to have my son, I knew the internet would be cruel. I knew that casting directors would consider me out of commission for at least a year. I knew that my body would change, but I did not let the fear of these things effect me to the point of going against my spirit.”

Lauren London’s Late Partner Encouraged Her to Embrace Her Body

In 2019, London and her late partner were featured on the cover of QG, and during one of the fittings for the shoot, London realized that the clothes picked out for her would not fit. “All of it was a music video, modelesque clothing. I’m like, ‘I can’t fit in anything. I’m overweight,'” London said.

Their QG cover had been the first time London had taken pictures since giving birth to her second son, and after reassuring his wife that he would handle the situation, Nipsey Hussle set up another fitting for later in the day.

“He was so supportive—like making tea for me—and he sat through my whole fitting. Every time I would come out in new clothes, he would clap: ‘Look at how fly you look. You gonna kill it. ‘”
