    Ava Phillippe has called out "toxic" bodyshamers who called her "too fat" and "too thin"

    The 24-year-old daughter of actors Reese Witherspoon, 48, and Ryan Phillippe, 49, has revealed she was told to use celebrity weight-loss drug Ozempic by one troll and accused of starving herself by another - at the same size


    In a TikTok clip soundtracked by a cover of No Doubt's 'I'm Just A Girl', she wrote: "NBD but I just achieved a major milestone as a woman online.

    "I saw 2 different strangers commenting on my body.

    "The first said I should get on Oz*mpic because I'm too fat. The second accused me of starving myself because I'm too thin. My weight did not change in the time period between their comments. (and it wouldn't be any of their business if it did!) It's such bull****.

    "No one deserves to be picked apart for what they look like. You don't always know what someone's gone through or what they struggle with. But no matter who you are ... Your beauty exceeds superficial measures."

    She captioned the post: "Pretty is as pretty does, babes ... and bodyshaming is simply toxic behavior."

    Meanwhile, Ava recently shared how she used to use beauty products and make-up to "cover things" and "change" her appearance, but she thinks differently now.

    She told Nylon magazine: "My relationship with beauty is ever-changing. It started off by wanting to cover things or change things, and as I've gotten older and more mature, it's been more about highlighting things I like or being creative and playing with new colours and ideas.

    "It's more fun when you make it about something other than hiding. I think the way I present myself outward is a big reflection of what's on the inside, that creative spirit."
