The Walking Dead’s Alanna writes a slamming post to BODY shamers

by

Alanna Masterson made her return to The Walking Dead last Sunday, and the episode was based solely on her character, Tara, and her adventures since last season.

She absolutely killed the episode, doing the fight sequences and stunts herself – and that's after having a baby!

 

Dear Instagram trolls, body shamers, and the men and woman who think it's ok to comment on my weight: I hope that you don't have children. And if you do, I hope you teach them about kindness and acceptance. I hope they learn that it isn't ok to make fun of people or call people names. I hope one day YOU learn what it takes to be a parent. A kind, selfless parent. A working parent. A parent that puts themselves in someone else's shoes. Maybe you can't get it through your thick fucking skull, but nursing a baby for a year (and pumping in a van between takes, in the dead of summer in Georgia) is a lot of work, determination, and scheduling. So before you decide to make a comment about my chest being "too large" or how "fat" I've become, just know that this little girl got the best start to life. I wouldn't have changed it for a second. I would've gladly continued to eat enough calories to produce milk for her little bones to grow. Also, grow the fuck up. Your mother should be ashamed for raising such a judgmental bully. I'm sure she knows how "courageous" you must be for trolling and hiding behind your Iphone and computers. P.s. I would LOVE to see any man or woman give birth to a baby, nurse the baby, and then work 17 hour days and NAIL their own stunts. P.s.s. Be kind to each other. We need it now more than ever.

On The Talking Dead, the follow-up show, Alanna revealed that while she was shooting the episode, she was also breastfeeding her baby girl in the dead heat of summer.

But that didn't stop trolls from commenting on her weight.

She was heavily shamed for her appearance, but decided that she wasn't going to put up with it, and took to Instagram to write a slamming post to the body trolls.

"Be kind to each other. We need it now more than ever," she added.
