Dr Alex George begs fans to quit saying he 'looks tired' as he fights on frontline

Dr Alex George has had enough of fans commenting on his appearance.

The former Love Island star, 28, and A&E doctor has spent over two months fighting the coronavirus on the frontline, and now, he's asked fans to stop telling him that he looks tired.

Alex has been documenting his long and difficult day in Lewisham hospital to give fans and followers alike an insight into the sheer devastation that the killer big has caused.

He also uses his platform to spread positivity on the matter, and tries his best to keep the spirits up for his admirers.

But it seems that last night, the former Love Island star had quite enough comments from fans based on the way he looks.

Taking to his Instagram Stories, Alex snapped a photo of himself looking slightly disheveled after a long day.

Alongside the photo where he plants a sad smile across his face, Alex begged his fans to stop telling him that he looks tired all the time.

While he admitted that he knows the comments are out of of pure kindness, he insisted that it's hard to hear every single day.

The celebrity doctor penned: "I know you all are trying to be nice by saying that I look tired.

"But I literally get told that every single day in my DM'S. And it's kind of not nice to hear that all the time.

"I know it's meant in the kindest way though" he added.

After putting out the message, it seems that Dr Alex was met with sympathy as his next snap read "Thanks for the kind messages".

It comes after the reality TV star was given some respite from duty as he found time for a socially-distanced date with his girlfriend this week.

Alex has been isolating separately from partner Amelia Bath since the country-wide lockdown went into effect.

But now the pair are allowed to see each other in line with the government's most recent set of lockdown rules - given they keep at a two metre distance from one another.

The loved-up pair headed for a socially-distanced picnic, and of course, Alex shared a selfie from the sunny spot to capture the moment.

An emotional Alex penned: "After SO long apart what a feeling to finally see you AB.

"So close yet so far staying 2 metres apart...but right now we will take what we can get."

Cute!
