Before I delve into Ashley’s beautiful response to the troll, let me share how it all went down. Ready? Let’s go!
On Sunday, Dec. 18, the journalist posted a picture of Ashley on Twitter. The since-deleted post featured Ashley rocking a beautiful gold-colored backless gown, and a picture of Irina Shayk. The journalist captioned her post, “The fat positivity movement is getting out of hand.”
Well, Ashley had her fans fighting her battles for her by immediately commenting under the troll post with comments like, “I refuse to give this woman a retweet, but I have to point out that Ashley Graham is a goddess and s****ing on other woman for their looks is passe,” and, “We aren’t having that kind of energy anymore. Get a therapist” flying in the comments section.

Well, Ashley didn’t let the troll slide. The following day Monday, Dec. 19, she responded by reposting the same picture used by the journalist. This time around was one taken from a different angle which showed her curves.
Ashley proceeded by telling her fans who are of her size or bigger to upload a picture of themselves as a form of promoting the “fat positivity.” Her post reads: “Quote tweet this with a photo of you taking ‘fat positivity’ too far.”
Not long, several women jumped into the game and posted their “fat positivity” pictures online.
