Roxy shared that ahead of her big day she was worried her glucose levels could drop while she was walking down the aisle, and she even had to schedule one of her insulin injections before tucking into her wedding cake. The influencer now uses a continuous glucose monitor, which is attached to her arm and monitors her glucose levels, alongside hybrid closed-loop system device which injects insulin into her leg.
Roxy revealed her wedding concerns stemmed from difficulties she had while she was pregnant with her daughter Elsie, two, when her glucose levels became 'crazy' and unpredictable, and forced her to have scans every week. She said: I was very anxious about managing my diabetes on my wedding day because I was thinking what if my glucose levels go really low while I'm walking down the aisle.

Roxy shared that she was diagnosed with diabetes after battling debilitating symptoms such as extreme thirst, hunger, weight loss and exhaustion.
The fashion star finally got answers when she went to A&E after using a finger prick monitor she bought from the pharmacy and learned her glucose levels were ridiculously high. She said: It is a terrifying thing being pregnant with type 1 diabetes. Your glucose levels do crazy things. My glucose levels were going really really high really really low all over the place.
I had to go in every week either to have a scan or make sure baby was OK or I was OK. Since their wedding, Roxy has shared snaps from the fairytale day with her followers on Instagram.

In the UK about 90 per cent of diabetic adults have Type 2 diabetes Diabetes is a lifelong condition that causes a person's blood sugar level to become too high. There are two main types of diabetes: Type 1, where the body's immune system attacks and destroys the cells that produce insulin.
Type 2, where the body does not produce enough insulin, or the body's cells do not react to insulin. Type 2 diabetes is far more common than Type 1. In the UK, around 90% of all adults with diabetes have Type 2. Reducing the risk of Type 2 diabetes can be achieved through healthy eating, regular exercise and achieving a healthy body weight.
