Chelsea Vaughn Shares Unedited Photo and Gets Real About Body Positivity in New Post
Bachelor Nation fans met runway model Chelsea Vaughn on Season 25 of “The Bachelor,” and she returned to our screens for Season 7 of “Bachelor in Paradise.”
As fans know, Chelsea was an established model before making her debut on “The Bachelor.”
She has walked in countless New York Fashion Week shows, modeled for major campaigns, and quit her corporate job a few years ago to pursue modeling full time.
And while it’s no secret that Chelsea is beautiful both inside and out, she still deals with insecurities and compares herself to others on social media.
She’s been open with fans about how the modeling industry has taken a toll on her mental health at times and how she’s grateful to be where she’s at now versus where she was when she first started modeling.
And now, in a new unedited post, Chelsea also just got real with her followers about body positivity and why she decided to leave her photo untouched.
Alongside a striking pic of the Bachelor Nation star in Puerto Rico, Chelsea started off her caption writing “@si_swimsuit I’m ready whenever you are!”
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
But she continued on, candidly saying, “PS- Every time I see pics of women with perfectly smooth and even bikini lines / underarms, it makes me feel self conscious AF about my very imperfect, dark, scarred ones. So, as much as I wanted to edit this, I’m leaving it as a reminder that Instagram isn’t real and my body is fab just the way she is.”
Many of Chelsea’s fellow Bachelor Nation stars flooded the comments showing their support for this message and for her stunning photo.
Serena Chew wrote, “🗣 🗣 THIS!!!!!”
Anna Redman chimed in, saying, “Every part of you is FAB 🔥😍.”
Rachael Kirkconnell added, “THANK YOU Chels. You’re incredible!”
And Elyse Dehlbom said, “Good lord woman!!! You are beautiful exactly as is!”
And we couldn’t agree more! Thank you, Chelsea, for always keeping it real!
