Roberts grew a thick skin over the years and was unbothered by social media trolls over her dramatic weight loss.
The late actress and TV presenter said she grew up being teased about her dark skin tone and explained that this was one of the reasons why she remained unconcerned by trolls in an interview with Drum Magazine.
She also told the publication that the pandemic affected her appetite and mental state which contributed to her dramatic weight loss.
