Paulina Porizkova has hit back at those telling her she needs to lose weight, insisting she’s “more comfortable in this body” than she’s ever been.
The 61-year-old model took to Instagram to reply to critics who suggested she needed to lose a few pounds in response to a previous post about how she’s fine with having put on weight in recent months.
She wrote: “I got a lot of love and support from you all – and a few peeps who helpfully wanted to let me know that if I ate and exercised the right way, I COULD get rid of the weight.
“(Some also helpfully let me know for a small payment they would send me the program that they invented and worked awesome for them.)”
She continued to say that while “thank you, I know I can get rid of the weight”, that wasn’t the point of her previous post.
Paulina added: “I can eat less and work out more. I can get liposuction, or freeze my extra fat off in little bricks.
“My point was and IS: to resist to age takes an awful lot of time and money.”
She concluded by insisting: “At this point in my life I’m more comfortable in this body than I’ve ever been. More grateful for it.
“And I have a ton of other things I want to do with my time and money.”
Paulina accompanied the post with a video of herself showing off her figure in a red two-piece bikini.
With people in the comments section quick to praise her for her honesty.
One wrote: “The confidence of truly knowing and appreciating your body rather than viewing your body.”
Another added: “You look incredible, and not ‘for your age’ – I just mean strikingly beautiful, period.”
As a third commented: “Wish I had loved my body more when I was young. If I knew then what I know now.
“Hoping this body lasts another 60+ years. One of my grandmothers lived to 107 she had NINE children.
“Here’s to living fully loving our bodies.”
