Mom Bullied on Instagram
Mom Bullied on Instagram Because Her Baby Bump was “Too Black”.
Porsche Thomas, the daughter of Real Housewives of Atlanta’s Peter Thomas Instagrammed a bikini photo of herself. Wearing a bikini when she was nine months pregnant with twin boys.
Getting down to the wire … Crazy excited and totally nervous. What a way to start #2017,” she captioned the photo.
While some commented on how great she looked, trolls were out to question why “her stomach looks nasty” and looked “so black”.
However, Porsche – who welcomed her twins, August and Berlin, on 7 January – hit back, on Instagram. Posted another picture of herself in a bikini with the caption:
‘While some of y’all been in my comments criticizing the blackness that is my belly and me during what shoulda been your holiday cheer, I have been over here enjoying life, growing tiny humans, performing miracles and hopefully getting even blacker #justsaying #melaninpoppin #twins#babybump #noairbrushneeded #love and be #loved.’
“We don’t really get to see black baby bumps and when we do, people have a negative reaction to it, for some reason, like it’s vulgar,” Porsche told BET on Friday, January 6. The 5-foot-9 beauty added that she was shaking off the hate. “I don’t hold on to other people’s opinions that have nothing to do with me. Just laugh at the ignorance. I know it exists, it’s there and it’s sad,” she said. “The fact that we’re in a Trump-era made it less funny.”
