Jenna Kutcher, a 29-year-old photojournalist, has been happily married to her husband, Drew Kutcher, for ten years. Drew, a fitness instructor, shares a deep bond with Jenna, and their love story has been an inspiration to many.
Recently, however, the couple faced unexpected backlash on social media after sharing a photo from a beach day in Hawaii.
The photo, which featured Jenna and Drew both in swimsuits, quickly garnered negative attention. Critics cruelly attacked Jenna’s appearance, with comments suggesting she was “big and unattractive” and questioning how she could be married to someone as “lovely and attractive” as Drew.
Many of the remarks focused on their differing body types, with some saying that Jenna didn’t “deserve” her husband because she wasn’t as physically fit as he was.
Jenna keeps her grace and strength
Despite the hurtful remarks, Jenna chose to respond with grace and strength. In a heartfelt post, she shared how being married to Drew, whom she lovingly calls “Mr. 6-Pack,” has sometimes led to struggles with her own body image.
She candidly expressed, “Why should I get him as a curvy girl? I construct stories in my brain about how I’m not worthy of him because I’m not skinny.”
However, Jenna also highlighted the unwavering support she receives from Drew, who has always embraced her just as she is. The response to Jenna’s post was overwhelmingly positive, with many applauding her courage and authenticity.
She reflected on the irony of their story going viral, stating, “We’ve spent the last few days laughing at the fact that society thinks seeing two people in love (who happen to have different body types) is newsworthy, but we are embracing it wholeheartedly because it means we get to share our message with YOU, with the world.”
