An influencer has insisted her big curves are ‘all natural’ after fans insisted she had plastic surgery and a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL).
Gracie Bon, from Panama, has more than seven million followers on Instagram as she videos herself going to the gym, traveling the world and sunbathing on the beach.
But it also shows the challenges she faces as a plus-size woman, including showing up a lot on the street and struggling to wear a seat belt on planes.
Although Gracie receives positive comments about her body in her posts, she also receives many trolls who say that she has built her voluptuous figure.
The 26-year-old hit back at those negative comments with an online post claiming her body is “what God gave me”.

The content creator took to the platform and wrote: “You can clearly see in the first photo what my ‘natural’ body looked like and guess what, at that time I was being looked at strangely and [I] I was also body shamed because I look different and 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’m[ not hating my body because you hate it.
‘Some of you normalise hating on girls for nothing, for just being themselves.’
Gracie then ended the post by writing ‘mind you, the thighs match,’ as a dig at those claiming she has had a BBL, as sometimes the thighs may be disproportionate to the buttocks after the surgery takes place.
Along with the post, she shared three older photos of herself next to three more recent pictures to showcase her curves.
The post racked up more than 377,000 likes and 14,000 comments, with commentators expressing split opinions.
One wrote: ‘There’s definitely no need to be ashamed of your curves, but the lying though, just don’t. It’s clear you had some work done and that’s fine just don’t lie.’
Another penned ‘What God gave me, I didn’t know there was a BBL surgeon named God.’

A third said: ‘I’m a man who [has] he always dated curvy women without shame. Just ignore the haters. I think you are beautiful.’
A fourth added: “The previous image has also been tampered with. I have seen your old photos. They’re not mad that you’ve had so much surgery, it’s that you’re lying about it, so now that’s getting them to call you out.’
A fifth commented: “I can’t speak for everyone but I sure appreciate your curves! Nice physique.”
Earlier this year, Gracie took to her Instagram to discuss the struggles of flying as a plus-size woman.
She was seen walking through the airport on a moving walkway, looking back to smile while showing off her figure.

The post garnered more than 377,000 likes and 14,000 comments, with commenters expressing divided opinions.
The Instagram model exclaimed: “Planes should have bigger seats.
“So today I had a flight and even if I flew in first class I couldn’t fit on the plane – so this is a request for all airlines that big girls like me can fly on.”
Gracie insists: “It’s not my fault I have a *** this big. Please just make them bigger.’
She shared the clip on Instagram for 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 issue was self-inflicted after choosing to undergo body modification surgeries.
One user wrote: “What you need is a bigger brain,” while a second wrote: “It’s your fault. You paid for the surgeries.”
