Vogue Williams has opened up about criticism she received for continuing to exercise while she was pregnant with her son, Theodore.
The Irish beauty and lifestyle blogger is known for her commitment to fitness and health, which she continued while she was expecting her first child last year, but now Vogue has revealed that she came under fire from followers of her and online comments for training during her pregnancy.
“I used to get comments off people saying, ‘I think it’s a disgrace, you need to be relaxing, you’re pregnant, you need to take the next 10 months off!’” The 33-year-old told Women’s Health Magazine.
“But that doesn’t suit me or my lifestyle or the way I feel about myself. I train a lot for anxiety, it makes me feel good and I like it.”
“There was one (article) like, ‘I pity her for having to get back into shape so quickly after a baby’, and it’s like, I didn’t have to get back into shape.
“Who am I getting back into shape for? Don’t waste your pity.”
Vogue, who married reality star Spencer Matthews in a private ceremony in Scotland last year, has also previously spoken about how important body positivity is, and how you shouldn’t believe what you see on Instagram.
“Lots of people asking how I have no stretch marks… every woman has stretch marks. I have them up my thighs and all over my tush.” she told her followers.
She continued, “There’s nothing with stretch marks, it’s a part of growing.”
We think Vogue looks as amazing as ever!
