Amelia Hamlin Gray is opening up about her eating disorder. Lisa Rinna’s daughter admits that she was near death. Her doctor shared the horrifying news to her family. That’s when they knew they had to get their daughter some help.
Amelia first opened up about her struggles with her eating disorder in 2018 of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. However, it wasn’t a hot topic until this season. Garcelle Beauvais brought up the 19-year-old in her confessional when she talked about Rinna’s dancing videos on Instagram. She felt wondered if the social media posts contributed to Amelia’s eating disorder.
Now, Amelia is revealing what really led to her downfall.
Amelia Hamlin Gray recalls the moment when she realized she had an eating disorder
On Tuesday, August 25, via Yahoo! Entertainment, Amelia about mental health and body image struggles. She recalled the very moment when she knew that things went horribly wrong.
“[One day] I woke up looking in the mirror and being like, ‘Holy guacamole, you are really skinny and it is very scary.”
Amelia realized she needed help. She also noticed that her eating disorder started to take over her life. Even some of her family members confronted her about it, including her father Harry Hamlin and sister Delilah Belle Hamlin. They intervened on Amelia’s behalf and took her to her doctor.

“He looked at me and he was like, ‘so yeah, basically at this rate in about four months, you’re going to be 45 pounds and you’re going to be dead,'” Amelia said. “I just snapped out of it. Like I was so lucky that I was just like, ‘Yeah, I don’t want to be 45 pounds.'”
She doesn’t want people to blame her famous mom. Amelia says the comments “just really breaks my heart.” She also claimed that her mom is naturally skinny. Instead, someone else led to her eating disorder.

“They preach feminism so much, but I feel like it was one of those instances where they didn’t really practice what they preached,” Amelia continued. “And that’s when I first started having more of a negative mindset.”
During Year 9, her history shared a photo of her mom on the projector board. She was aware that Amelia was in the class and started “dissecting all of the bad things” that her mom has done to represent other women. She has since recovered from her eating disorder and wants to use her platform to speak out about mental health.
