She told The Sun the jibes were "hurtful" after feeling the most confident she’d ever been when applying for the show.
"I was single, living life just for me and I believed the show would be an experience of a lifetime," said Millie.
"Knowing millions would be tuning in, I wanted to look and feel my best, so in the months before, I got as fit and healthy as possible.
"During three and a half weeks of quarantine in Mallorca, I worked out daily, ate healthily and avoided treats, which was a change from normal.
"By the time I entered the villa, I was a size 8 – probably a dress size smaller than usual – and felt good.
"At home in Essex, I’m the most confident one in my friendship group, but on Love Island, suddenly being surrounded by all these people who were beautiful and oozing confidence, I began to question myself.
"I’d joined the show late, so while I was feeling insecure, it seemed like everyone else was having so much fun, which made me feel low.
"The food in the villa wasn’t my favourite, and you tend to eat less when you’re in the heat, so when I left Love Island I was a size 6 – the smallest I’ve ever been.
"After the show, I gradually put weight back on and rediscovering my curves made me feel sexy.
"But recently, I’ve received nasty comments on social media about my size-10 figure, with some people even asking if I’m pregnant.
"Can you imagine if I couldn’t have children or I was trying for a baby and not succeeding?

"I hit back at trolls on Instagram, saying it was insensitive to comment on what I looked like and that I’d been torn apart by the things people had said.
"Even though I’m now happy with the way I am, inside and out, those comments hurt. I’m human – nobody likes to feel judged."
