Notorious for her appearance on 2017 program “Extreme Diet Hotel” – she referred to herself as a self confessed “diet dominatrix” – which originally aired on British free-to-air network Channel 4.
Grainger then went onto host “Celebrity Fat Fighter” which aired on TLC featuring a bunch of British celebrities.
She has also helped out celebrities including “The Only Way Is Essex” and “Celebrity Big Brother UK” star, Gemma Collins.
She made headlines after charging £1,200 a week to stay at her weight loss hotel, where she fed people cabbage, called them ‘fatty’ and whipped them with birch leaves.
