Emily Ratajkowski Shares Abs-Baring Photos as she stands up to trolls
Emily Ratajkowski isn’t going to let her life be dictated by internet trolls.
On Instagram Wednesday, the 30-year-old supermodel shared several photographs of her ensemble at the CFDA Fashion Awards earlier this month, claiming that she “almost didn’t post them” because she knew they would “stir up” controversy.
She wore a Miu Miu cropped sweater with a long, low-rise blue skirt, layered over a cropped collared shirt. She completed her ensemble with a black leather purse and natural hair and makeup.
“CFDAs ! thank you @miumiu and congratulations @ninagarcia,” Ratajkowski wrote in the caption. She added, per People, “(Almost didn’t post this bc I knew the controversy it would stir up but hey it’s my body and I’m not going to lean into shaming! God bless!)”
Emily also posted the in-feed image on her Instagram Story, as if her caption beneath the photographs wasn’t enough. She added a similar caption to the photo. However, this time she wrote, “But hey it’s my damn body and I’m not going to lean into the shaming! God bless!”

She recalls in My Body how her mother Kathleen Balgley instilled in her a love of beauty at an early age — and how much her parents, Balgley, a former English professor, and her father, John Ratajkowski, an artist, relied on her to get through their tumultuous marriage.
“Beauty was a way for me to be special,” Ratajkowski writes. “When I was special, I felt my parents’ love for me the most.”
Ratajkowski, who is married to Sebastian Bear-McClard and has a kid with him, also claimed in the book that singer Robin Thicke groped her on the set of the infamous “Blurred Lines” music video in 2013.
In the book’s preface, Ratajkowski says, “Whatever influence and status I’ve gained were only granted to me because I appealed to men. My position brought me in close proximity to wealth and power and brought me some autonomy, but it hasn’t resulted in true empowerment. That’s something I’ve gained only now, having written these essays and given voice to what I’ve thought and experienced.”
