An influencer has insisted her curves are “completely natural” after fans insisted she has undergone plastic surgery and a Brazilian butt lift (BBL).
Gracie Bon from Panama has over seven million followers on Instagram as she films herself hitting the gym, travelling the world and sunbathing on the beach.
But it also shows the challenges she faces as a plus-size woman, including being stared at on the street and having difficulty buckling up on airplanes.
Although Gracie receives positive comments about her body on her posts, she also receives many trolls who say that she has manufactured her voluptuous figure.
The 26-year-old responded to these negative comments with an online post in which she claimed that her body is “what God gave me.”
Gracie Bon posted old photos of herself alongside more recent ones as she attacked trolls.
Gracie defended her voluptuous figure in the caption, claiming it was what “God gave her.”
The content creator took to the platform and wrote: ‘You can clearly see in the first picture what my “natural” body looked like and guess what, at that point I got looked at weirdly and (I) was also body shamed because I look different and I dress different.
“So because I’m a plus size girl I can’t wear whatever I want and go out?
‘I’m sorry, I’m not ashamed of my curves anymore and I don’t hate my body because you hate it.
‘Some of you normalize hate towards girls for nothing, just for being themselves.’
Gracie then ended the post by writing “note the thighs match,” as a criticism of those who claim she’s had a BBL, as sometimes thighs can be disproportionate to the buttocks after the surgery is performed.
Along with the post, she shared three old photos of herself alongside three more recent photos to show off her curves.
The post racked up more than 377,000 likes and 14,000 comments, with commenters expressing divided opinions.
One wrote: “There’s definitely no need to be ashamed of your curves, but don’t lie. You’ve clearly had some work done and that’s fine, just don’t lie.”
Another wrote: “What God gave me, I didn’t know there was a BBL surgeon named God.”
Gracie then ended the post by writing, “mind you, the thighs match,” as a criticism of those who claim she’s had a BBL.

A third said: “I’m a man who has always dated curvy women without shame. Just ignore the haters. I think you’re beautiful.”
A fourth added: “The before pic is also doctored. I’ve seen your before pics. They’re not so mad that you had surgery, it’s that you’re lying about it so now they’re calling you out.”
A fifth commented: “I can’t speak for others but I definitely appreciate your curves. Such a nice physique!”
Earlier this year, Gracie took to Instagram to talk about the difficulties of taking a flight as a plus-size woman.
She was seen walking through the airport on a moving walkway, looking back to smile as she showed off her figure.
The January clip shows the plus-size 26-year-old pouting on the plane as she struggles to put on her seatbelt.
The post racked up more than 377,000 likes and 14,000 comments, with commenters expressing divided opinions.
The Instagram model exclaimed: ‘Planes should have bigger seats.
‘I had a flight today and even if I flew first class I wouldn’t fit on the plane. This is a petition to all airlines so that big girls like me can fly.’
Gracie insists: “It’s not my fault I have such a big butt. Please make it bigger.”
She shared the clip on Instagram to her 4.5 million followers, where it went viral with 1.3 million views and 3,500 comments.
However, not everyone agreed and viewers were quick to argue that her problem was self-inflicted after she decided to undergo body modification surgeries.
One user wrote: “What you need is a bigger brain,” while another wrote: “It’s your fault. You paid for the surgeries.”
