A boy aged just 10 who weighs 17 stone fears he faces death if he cannot beat his food addiction.

Terrified Kyon Fritz Marriott, who is believed to be Britain’s most obese primary school child, said he feels like a “slave” to his weight and his out-of-control eating.


He is afraid to go outside and is in the grip of such helpless cravings he routinely binges in his family’s bathroom on crisps and chocolate he has stolen from the kitchen.

In an anguished plea the lad, who stands 5ft 1in and has a 47in waist, says: “I just want to be a normal 10-year-old. I just want help.”

But his desperate mother accuses the NHS of letting him down and says shrinking funding means he won’t get the help he needs to save his life.
