Rebel Wilson has spoken out about her weight loss journey as the celebrity comedian is set to become a mother for the second time.
The Pitch Perfect star, who made headlines after randomly appearing alongside The Kooks at Reading Festival last year, has been open about her experience with Ozempic.
Since it became public knowledge that the GLP-1 medication, which was initially designed as a treatment for Type 2 diabetes, led to significant weight loss as a side effect, it's become far more popular across the world with anyone wanting to shed a few pounds.
Although celebrities such as Jeremy Clarkson and Amy Schumer have both spoken out about the sometimes serious side effects they suffered while taking the drug, it seems as if Wilson was more tolerant of it, and has stuck with it since starting on the drug during her 'year of health' back in 2020.

Posting on Instagram stories, the 46-year-old made an honest admission about herself, suggesting that she may never 'have a bikini body'.
She wrote: "I don't think I'll ever have a bikini body — that's just not me.
"But my body has carried me through this life and I am so grateful for it!"
Although she was able to lose around 80lbs by 2022, the Aussie actor has also made some lifestyle changes to be as healthy as possible, after doctors warned her that her fertility could be affected by her weight.
She was able to have a child alongside her wife Ramona Agruma, first thanks to a surrogate mother, while they also confirmed that Ramona was pregnant with their second child in December 2025.
Rebel added: "I'm trying to get in my daily steps, do a Pilates class once or twice a week, some strength training when I can, eat as healthy as I can."
"But let's face it I love sweets so I need those GLPs from time to time to give a little help."
She also pointed out that while she didn't have to lose any baby weight, she did have to deal with a lot of stress when she became a mother for the first time.
"Being a working Mum, you just try your best! Shout out to everyone trying to be the healthiest versions of themselves while dealing with a LOT," she said.
Speaking to PEOPLE back in 2020, she said: “You never want it to be about the number, because it really isn't about that. It's about: I was doing some unhealthy things to my body and I just wanted to change it and become a healthier person.”
"I did gain weight once I had my baby, because although I didn’t give birth to her and I didn’t need to lose any baby weight, I had just gained weight from the lack of sleep and from the change in my lifestyle," Wilson told Daily Mail in 2023. "For instance, now I can’t go to the gym as often as I used to. I’m just not working out as much, so that has slowed me down."
