Reese Witherspoon’s daughter won’t stand for haters!
On Friday, Ava Phillippe took to Instagram to share a stern message for trolls criticizing her body online. In a since-deleted Story post, she posed alongside her dog Benji and wrote:
“Bodyshaming is toxic behavior”
The 24-year-old added:
“(Asked Benji & he agrees) So maybe just… Don’t do that??”
What a concept, right? If only everyone shared the same mindset on that!
Later, she hopped on TikTok to double down in a follow-up video set to No Doubt’s Just A Girl. She stood in front of the camera as a sarcastic message appeared on screen:
“NBD but I just achieved a major milestone as a woman online… I saw two different strangers commenting on my body”
The celeb kid revealed:
“The first said I should get on Oz*mpic because I’m too fat… The second accused me of starving myself because I’m too thin”
WTF.
She added:
“My weight did not change in the time period between their comments (& it wouldn’t be any of their business if it did!) It’s such bulls**t. No one deserves to be picked apart for what they look like. You don’t always know what someone’s gone through or what they struggle with.”
Seriously! But Ava concluded with a helpful message:
“But no matter who you are… Your beauty exceeds such superficial measures.
”
She added in her post’s caption:
“Pretty is as pretty does, babes…& bodyshaming is simply toxic behavior.
#loveyouasyouare (P.S. I put ‘woman’ because I see this type of thing happening disproportionately to young girls & women, but let me be clear; bodyshaming is toxic no matter who the subject is. We all deserve to feel safe & at peace in the vessel we live in.)”
