Woman shares how she was body-shamed whilst on holiday

We are also quite shocked that in this day and age people still can't mind their words or their business...
Body-shaming isn't something we'd wish on anyone.
Sadly, a TikToker who was on holiday in Turkey fell victim to this form of abuse.
She was happily sharing videos on her page about her travels around Turkey and like most people on holiday, she was enjoying the cuisine.
Lauren Saddington, who is from the United Kingdom, shared how she was "flabbergasted" when a woman approached her at the buffet to ask her if she was pregnant.
She openly admits that she has been enjoying the food whilst on holiday and has been constipated, which has caused her to be bloated.
But that is no excuse for someone to feel the need to share their opinion about your weight. Your weight, your body = no one's business.

Lauren thought she was going to tell her that she recognised her from TikTok, but to her surprise, it was far from that.
It is so disheartening when someone takes the opportunity to bring others down, instead of lifting them up.
Take a listen to her share more details below, courtesy of TikTok.
