She’s one of Australia’s most well-known models and earlier today, 26-year-old Robyn Lawley took to social media to respond to claims that she’d considered an abortion because she didn’t want stretchmarks.
She posted a picture on her Instagram in her underwear with her stretch marks visible or, as she calls them, her ‘badass tiger stripes’.
It comes after a story was written a year ago, reading, “Robyn considers abortion to avoid stretch marks.”
“I was shocked not only because that is not what I said, not to mention I already had a tonne of stretch marks like 90% of the world, but to read that entire article and be already heavily pregnant, that’s their angle?” she told her Instagram followers.
She confessed: “I’m familiar with being bullied, once for not having a thigh gap (insert face palm) but to bully me for something I never said, not to mention my decision would need to be more based on the fact that I will be taking care of someone’s life, a heavy decision to make, would never rest on getting stretch marks alone.”
She spoke directly to her followers, telling them to, “F**k them, who cares, be you, be loud, be proud. And put your efforts into skills that rely more on your physical self.”
