The comments disheartened Spiranac. She has always received criticism online, but this was worse. The ex-golfer understands that her physique is the biggest part of her brand. Therefore, people expect to see her online in a certain way. But practically it is not possible to look the same all the time. In reality, cellulite is a natural thing even though it is not widely accepted on social media.
Spiranac lost to body-shamers
This was not the first incident when she suffered humiliation and was heartbroken. People trolled her online for her body and weight, which took a toll on her. As a result, it forced the golf beauty to delete around 30 comments. She was wearing a tight pink piece which led body-shamers to storm the comment section.
The comments were troubling for Spiranac. As an influencer, she put a lot of effort into maintaining her weight for a very long time. But reading ‘fat’ on her post was not something she wanted.
