Songstress LeAnn Rimes has revealed that despite persistent media rumours, she has never struggled with an eating disorder of any kind.

The star has been shown with a significantly thinner physique over the past couple of years and has been under constant press scrutiny, but confessed to the Daily Mail that she lost weight naturally and also at the hands of stress from her personal relationships:

"People said I was [anorexic], but I didn't have a problem with eating, as I ate a ton all the time - I could eat my husband under the table! But I was going through a time when I just wasn't sleeping -- my mind wouldn't shut off and my heart was breaking."
