Daisy May Cooper made a striking impression with her remarkable 10-stone weight loss at the UK premiere of The Six Billion Dollar Man on Tuesday.
The 39-year-old comedian, who has slimmed down from a size 24 to a size 10, confidently flaunted her new figure in a sleek, black outfit.
Her ensemble was a chic combination of a fitted blazer over a simple tank top, complemented by flared trousers.
Accompanied by her friend Jennifer Robinson, a star of the film, Daisy exuded joy as they posed for photographers on the red carpet.
Over the past two years, Daisy has embarked on a transformative weight loss journey to enhance her health.
Initially, she adopted the Keto diet, known for its low-carb approach, yet later confessed that despite its effectiveness, she “would not recommend it.”

The TV personality told the Daily Mail she developed kidney stones, and explained: ‘Because all I was eating all meat and cheese, like Henry VIII. The pressure on women to lose weight – at any cost – it’s insane. It’s horrendous.’
Daisy recently lifted the lid on how her incredible 10-stone weight loss and lip filler treatment delayed the filming of season two of Am I Being Unreasonable?.
The actress said the brand new series of the hit BBC comedy show is supposed to continue seamlessly on from the previous run, despite it airing three years ago.
But things didn’t quite go to plan after Daisy underwent a dramatic body transformation and various cosmetic ‘tweakments’ in the intervening period.
Reflecting on how they dealt with the continuity challenges on this Saturday’s instalment of The Jonathan Ross Show, the comedian said: ‘Series one is meant to be 30 seconds before series two and in that 30 seconds I’ve lost about 10 stone and had my lips done.
‘I saw the rushes and I said to the BBC, “God, we’re going to have a disclaimer at the beginning saying – Daisy has had her lips done, go with it and please don’t judge”.’
Am I Being Unreasonable is a surreal comedy following two women who enjoy a fun-loving life, before things begin to turn pear-shaped.
Daisy also revealed she has since been flooded with messages telling her that she’s ‘no longer funny’ since changing her appearance.

Discussing her appearance, the mother-of-two told the BBC podcast How To Be In The Spotlight: ‘I’m so for body positivity but when I was at my biggest I was at my most miserable and I had a massive food addiction.’
Daisy – who split from husband Will Weston in July 2021 after nearly two years of marriage – went on: ‘I wasn’t healthy. I couldn’t breathe when I was walking up the stairs. I was so unhappy.
‘And I’ve had some messages like, “Well, now you’ve lost the weight you’re not funny any more.”
‘What the f**k? Why do women have to be f**king fat to be funny? That makes me so angry. I champion anybody. I think everybody should be happy with their body. But I wasn’t.’
In an appearance at the Am I Being Unreasonable premiere in January, Daisy was seen looking markedly different from her former self — sporting a more defined bone structure and a crease-free forehead.
The actor has previously admitted to undergoing cosmetic ‘tweakments’ including fillers and this year, said she was advised to stop getting anti-wrinkle Botox injections as the effect on her facial expressions could limit acting roles.
In 2024, the actress said she had had fillers but admitted it gave her a ‘horrible pillow face’ — when filler makes the face appear puffy — and she ‘couldn’t move [her] face’.

In June she told the BBC podcast she was banned by her agent from getting any more Botox or fillers over fears she wouldn’t ‘be able to act’.
She said: ‘I’ve had Botox and then I had fillers. It was just the worst, I looked awful. There’s me on the One Show and I’ve got that horrible pillow face. I can’t move my face.
‘My agent said to me: “You’ve got to stop because you’re not going to be able to f*****g act”.
‘I literally couldn’t move my eyebrows. It killed me because I loved not having any creases in my forehead. I stopped having that done. But I haven’t had any surgery.
‘I did go in to have a consultation for a tummy tuck and the surgeon just scared the s*** out of me. There’s that dog ear thing you can get — these flaps that come from the side. I just thought, I can’t. I’ll use my Spanx to hold all that in.’
