SHE was happily dating a man she'd met online.
And while Kat thought things were going really well, she had no idea of his "concerns" about her weight.
She took to TikTok to share her heartbreaking story, failing to hold back her tears as she did so.
"It doesn't matter how old you get. It never hurts less," Kat began.
"I've been talking to this guy since early May – so two months – and we had a few dates, and I thought it went really well.
"We have everything in common, he texts me all day, every day, same shared values, same life goals, same interests, really good banter."

And as well as telling her that she was "smart and funny", he also told her she was "beautiful", with Kat adding: "Which is the first time that's ever happened in my whole life".
"We went on a few dates and then we were talking and he said he's just really concerned about my lack of physical activity and he's been trying to convince himself to find me attractive because I had such a good personality," she continued.
"And I told him that I didn't think he should have to convince himself to find me attractive, and that I'm happy with my body and it's ok if other people aren't."
Kat also revealed that despite reaching out to her friends, they weren't able to help as they're "all very beautiful and thin" and have "never had guys on the Internet or just in life to their face tell them that they were ugly before".
