Felicity Huffman has confessed to suffering from eating disorders in her late teens but insists it helped her prepare for acting roles such as her character Bree in sex-change movie Transamerica'. The Desperate Housewives’ star explains, “The self-loathing that goes along with bulimia or anorexia helped me understand Bree’s internal journey.” Felicity adds, “I was bulimic and anorexic for a while, just hating my body. As an actress, I was never thin enough, never pretty enough. My boobs weren’t big enough.” Turning 40 helped Felcity come to terms with her body: “I think I’ve always had a 40-year-old body and now that I’m actually there, I’m like, ‘Hey, pretty good’.” [24 November 2005]
