WWE‘s Rhea Ripley shares workout update after revealing her struggle with an eating disorder.
Reigning WWE Women’s Champion Rhea Ripley received some criticism from fans following a significant weight loss. A fitness influencer had previously posted a video on his Instagram page discussing Ripley’s transformation, comparing her old muscular look with her current one.
Ripley replied to that video, saying that she has been dealing with an eating disorder and is trying to manage it.
“Just a little eating disorder that I’m actively trying to handle,” Rhea Ripley wrote.
Many fans came to Ripley’s defense:
“Leave female bodies alone,” one fan said.
“You look amazing no matter what, always prioritize your health above all else,” another wrote.
“When did it become OK to comment on people’s bodies?” another fan asked.
Amid the criticism, Rhea Ripley shared a workout update on Instagram, posting a picture that highlights her impressive lean muscle mass and definition. The caption read, “Nice lil pump.”
Rhea Ripley fired back at fans criticizing her appearance
Rhea Ripley recently took to X/Twitter to directly respond to fans who had been criticizing her appearance and called them out for judging her looks.
“Too manly. Too bulky. Too muscly. Too much sex appeal. Too lean/skinny. It’s comical really. 1. You know nothing about me and what’s going on in my life or my mental. 2. Post a photo of yourself. You won’t,” Ripley posted.
Rhea Ripley defeated Jade Cargill at WrestleMania 42 to become the new WWE Women’s Champion. The Storm, who had been absent from television since the loss, made a surprise return on last week’s SmackDown. It will be interesting to see whether the promotion will book a rematch between the two powerhouses at the upcoming Saturday Night’s Main Event or Clash in Italy events.
