Model and influencer Arabella Mia has fired back at body shamers after receiving cruel comments branding her as “fat” for posting a bikini video.
The 27-year-old, who has over three million followers across platforms and goes by @greengirlbellauk on Instagram, shared a clip of herself walking along the beach in a yellow bikini with the caption: “Guys, is this fat to you? Be honest.”
The video, shared with her 381,000 followers on X, quickly went viral, racking up nearly 300,000 views and attracting both support and abuse.
Despite her slim and curvy figure, Arabella says she’s regularly hit with misogynistic and hurtful remarks online.
To be honest, I get called fat all the time,” she said. “It doesn’t affect me much because I used to actually be considered overweight. My body is naturally curvy. I’ve always had wide hips. That’s just how I’m built.”
She’s using her platform to highlight the unrealistic expectations placed on women’s bodies and to encourage body acceptance. “People need to realise women’s bodies aren’t trends they’re real, and they come in all shapes and sizes,” she added.
Arabella, who recently made headlines for attending an Arsenal match covered only in body paint, says she’s often targeted simply for being confident in her skin.
Some trolls even compared her unfavourably to singer Lizzo, but many fans rushed to her defence, praising her as “perfect,” “gorgeous,” and “the kind of beauty Renaissance painters adored.” Others reminded her that she looks healthy, confident, and stunning just the way she is.
