On her latest episode of ‘Playing a Round with Paige Renee,’ Spiranac opened up about her stalking and abuse. She had another account, with her full name, that people in college would stalk and send her hate on. They would troll her for it and leave her upset. So, she instead created another account, naming it Paige Renee, and began posting golf videos. “Because who can make fun of that?” she claimed.

The influencer’s decision was a blessing in disguise as now her page has 3.7 million followers. She revealed that as part of her posts, for about three weeks, she had a Thursday ritual called “Thirsty Thursday,” where she would post the “craziest DMS” that she had received and laugh about them with her fans.

One week, she posted a DM that she thought was funny, but her fans were horrified. The ex-pro golfer stated, “They were offended. It was highly weird, creepy sexual.” Spiranac realized at that moment how desensitized she was to the disturbing messages and responses she received.
She further added how funny and ironic the incident was and said, “Which is also funny because people say that I hate being objectified, yet I’m so desensitized to, you know, these comments that happen every single day.” The social media icon’s fans then realized how difficult her life was.
