Jess Wright Seen in Essex After Apology Over Podcast Remarks on Thong Bikinis

The deleted clip continues to spread on TikTok, driving criticism over hypocrisy and the policing of women’s clothing.

Overview

  • The former TOWIE star, alongside her mother Carol and sister Natalya, described thong bikinis as “gross” and “unsexy” on their Wright At Home podcast.
  • All three issued a joint Instagram apology stating they had listened and were sorry, and they removed the clip from the podcast’s account.
  • Despite the takedown, the segment circulated widely on TikTok, where users called the comments degrading and resurfaced old images of Jess in similar swimwear.
  • Tabloid coverage, relying on unnamed sources, claimed Carol’s remarks targeted daughter-in-law Michelle Keegan, a suggestion that has not been independently verified.
  • On Wednesday, Jess was photographed leaving a gym in Essex in her first public sighting reported since the apology.
