Speculation has begun about the mysterious celebrity who was forced to flee Gwyneth Paltrow’s home after suffering a strange side effect from the weight loss drug Ozempic.
A growing number of A-list patients are reportedly suffering from embarrassing and debilitating stomach symptoms, including loss of control of their bowels.
Now, rumours have surfaced about a recent “scandal” at the popular holiday destination The Hamptons, where celebrities are flocking ahead of America’s Independence Day next week.
An unfortunate guest rumoured to have been staying at Gwyneth Paltrow’s home has suffered a “catastrophic” case of diarrhoea.
According to rumor, one guest fled to New York City to avoid any awkward confrontations.
Speculation has begun over the mysterious celebrity who was forced to flee Gwyneth Paltrow’s Hamptons home after suffering a strange side effect from the weight-loss drug Ozempic.
“Ozempic-induced diarrhea is becoming a very hot topic of conversation among hosts there, because so many of their guests are using it,” the recent blind article stated.
‘Therefore, it is to be expected that the laundromats will be fully booked from July 4 onwards.’
MailOnline is not suggesting Gwyneth has used Ozempic or any similar medication, only that rumours are circulating that a guest at her home may have experienced side effects during their stay.
There is also no suggestion that any celebrity named or photographed in this story is suffering from the specific gastrointestinal side effect described in the Popbitch blind item.
Celebrities who have admitted to using weight loss drugs like Ozempic include Oprah Winfrey, Elon Musk, Sharon Osbourne, Chelsea Handler and Robbie Williams.
In June 2023, comedian Amy Schumer admitted taking it the previous year, but stopped due to side effects.
“I was one of those people who felt very sick,” she said.
Weight loss drugs work by mimicking GLP-1, a hormone produced naturally in the body that helps slow the passage of food through the stomach, making people feel less hungry.

It also alters the brain’s appetite regulation so that users feel satiated despite eating less and also do not experience cravings for sweet foods.
Clinical trials show that 30 percent of patients experience diarrhea with Wegovy, compared to 16 percent with placebo, according to the drug’s package insert. prescription information.
Common side effects of Ozempic include constipation, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain, according to the drug’s label.
Meanwhile, long-term side effects are also emerging. One concern is muscle loss: GLP-1 drug trials show that about 40 percent of the weight lost is muscle mass rather than fat.
This can have serious health implications. Not only is muscle needed to burn calories but, for example, in middle-aged and older people, loss of muscle mass (called sarcopenia) is strongly associated with frailty and premature death.
Less common complications of GLP-1 drugs include gallstones, increased heart rate, kidney damage, and pancreatitis, a condition in which the pancreas becomes rapidly and painfully inflamed.
Another serious concern is gastroparesis, a serious disorder in which the stomach muscles become effectively paralyzed and the stomach does not empty, causing sufferers to vomit up days-old food.
For some patients, the only remedy for gastroparesis may be a gastric bypass.
