Former Royal Ballet School student wins body-shaming lawsuit but seeks wider inquiry into ballet abuse.

Ellen Elphick, a former Royal Ballet School student, has settled a legal case over body-shaming that allegedly led to her developing an eating disorder. The school did not admit liability or offer an apology. Elphick, who attended from 2009 to 2012, is now advocating for changes in how ballet schools treat their students, calling for a government inquiry into body-shaming and abuse in ballet.
