Ashton has little sympathy for blogger

Disgraced blogger Belle Gibson has fronted the cameras for the first time since admitting she lied about having terminal brain cancer while promoting her wellness app and book The Whole Pantry.

In a new television interview to be aired on the Nine Network this Sunday, Ms Gibson admits: “I have lost everything.”

She appears to show little remorse while speaking with journalist Tara Brown: “I’m not trying to get away with anything. I’ve been really transparent.”

Ms Gibson has now admitted the story was a hoax and last month it was revealed she failed

to donate $300,000 in revenue from the sale of her app to charity as promised.

Geraldton woman Ashton Taylor had little sympathy today saying: “You have to look at what she has done, of course people are going to be upset.

“Everything she has set up has been a lie and people are angry, I’m just one of those people.

“I find it hard to sympathise with her that she has lost everything, I sympathise with her that she needs help.

“I have given up things in my life and put my university degree on hold because I have a condition.

"People with serious illnesses have no choice but to give everything up, and Belle has lost what shouldn't have been hers in the first place.”

The 21-year-old communications and marketing student knows the struggles of battling a brain condition.

In 2013, she was diagnosed with Dural Fistulas, an abnormal connection between an artery and the tough covering over the brain.

She has had 16 surgeries in the past two years and there are more she must endure.

There is an arteriovenous malformation (fistula) in her jugular which needs to be removed.
