London, Dec 29 (PTI) Hilaria Baldwin has opened up about how her obsession with latin and ballroom dancing caused her to suffer from anorexia and bulimia.
The 32-year-old star developed a passion for latin and ballroom dancing when she was a young girl but said it had an affect on how she perceived her body, reported Contactmusic.
"Without realising it, I started drifting away from the playful connection to movement I'd enjoyed as a young child and into a different and darker kind of dynamic: pushing my body to its limits and commanding it to perform through pain or fatigue. A long simmering struggle with anorexia and bulimia began to hold me firmly in its grip," she said.
"By the time I was 20 years old, my 5-foot-3 frame was at least 20 pounds under a healthy weight. My nails were brittle, my hair was falling out and my energy had tanked. I was miserable and desperate to feel better.
