Jade McSorely, 21, has battled the disease since the age of eight and weighs under seven stone. Jade's role on the show comes amidst ongoing criticism of unhealthily skinny models in the fashion industry.
Living, who broadcast the show, have defended Jade's inclusion, saying that taking part in the show has helped her and given her access to dieticians and physicians.
A friend of the wannabe model told Heat: "Taking part in the competition has given Jade's life a real focus, and she's determined to make it in the modelling industry in some way."
