Eva Amurri recently shared her emotional reaction to mean comments she received online about her wedding dress after marrying chef Ian Hock in June. The actress expressed feeling reminiscent of middle school when she read hurtful remarks aimed at shaming her. Despite selecting photos for People magazine that made her feel beautiful and authentic, negative attention arose once the images were shared online.
Amurri highlighted that her natural breasts, which have changed due to motherhood, were a focal point of criticism. She defended her body, emphasizing that she is not ashamed of it and that clothing choices should not be a cause for public scrutiny.
Various derogatory comments about her appearance, particularly her breasts, were distressing for Amurri, as she felt that strangers were attempting to undermine her family's happiness captured in the wedding photos. She expressed surprise at the strong reactions to her dress selection for her special day.
Choosing a strapless, corseted gown with a column shape and a billowing skirt, Amurri aimed for a sexy and elegant look. Despite her intentions, she faced backlash for her attire, prompting her to reflect on the societal pressures placed on women regarding their fashion choices.
Amurri also defended Olivia Culpo, another bride who faced criticism for her modest wedding dress, highlighting the unfair standards imposed on women regardless of their style preferences. The actress questioned the societal norms that dictate what is deemed acceptable attire for brides.
Amurri's experience resonated with Natalie Joy, Nick Viall's wife, who also faced ridicule for her bust-baring wedding dress. Joy explained that her breastfeeding journey influenced her appearance on her wedding day and urged critics to refrain from making inappropriate comments.
