The post was punctuated with #AD to exclaim the reality tv star was paid for the post but her followers still claim the product is nonsense. One critic commented: "5 juices a day come on love think that’s a lie, stop selling nonsense"

Another commenter made a poignant remark: "I love how some Love Island stars are returning to care work, or working in the NHS during this pandemic, but Molly here is simply telling everyone to starve themselves, and lose weight by only drinking smoothies for a day - what an inspiration!"

And a third: "You can be healthy and eat as you please rather than just juice all day. Such a bad image to promote, have a think will you."

It is understandable though that Smith would want to keep her immune system going after boyfriend, Callum Jones reported having symptoms of the virus.

While Molly may be keeping the money coming in from social media, many Love Island stars such as Dr Alex, have been keeping their heads down at work in an order to help with the current pandemic.
