Victoria Larson Slams Comments About Her New 'Paradise' Look: 'I Was Always Beautiful'
The queen has spoken! Victoria Larson headed over to Instagram on Monday to clap back at social media trolls who have criticized her new look for Season 7 of “Bachelor in Paradise.”
“Guys it’s called, sleep,” the franchise star captioned a composite of her headshots for “The Bachelor” Season 25 and “Paradise.”
“And not having a swollen eye,” she continued, noting a stubborn stye that persisted while competing for Matt James’ final rose.
Victoria — who entered the franchise with brunette hair but now rocks bright blonde tresses — also acknowledged that she “got [her] lips done.”
“But they’re also over lined in that photo,” she added, referring to her “Paradise” portrait.
“Going on the bachelor straight from covid and the pandemic, my priorities honestly were not wrapped around external beauty,” Victoria elaborated. “I’ve gotten to focus on both internal and external beauty since then and would appreciate the hateful, hypocritical comments about my appearance and ‘behavior’ while on a tv show to cease.”
The Jet Set Glo founder went on to say that her self-image has never suffered because of strangers’ opinions. “Plus I was always beautiful,” she concluded. “So don’t always judge someone from one season.”
Well said! Check out Victoria’s entire post below.
