Kristina Romanova showed stretch marks after childbirth and opposed body shaming: "Everyone has drawbacks"

Less than a year ago, 27-year-old model Kristina Romanova - the companion of 57-year-old Russian entrepreneur Vladislav Doronin - became a mother for the second time. Since then, she has regularly shared videos of her workouts on Instagram, helping her get in her usual shape after giving birth. Romanova does not hide that she has cellulite and stretch marks did not go away, but she treats them calmly. Today she showed them in close-up on her Instagram, speaking out against body shaming.

"Throughout my life, my body has been criticized. When I was a child, I was told that I was too tall and thin. Then I became a model, and I constantly had to torment myself with terrible diets to fit into the standards of the runway model. Then there were changes in the body after pregnancy (and they are still there), and this is a different story. When will this end? Yes, I want to be the best version of myself. I like to eat healthy and exercise, which makes me feel better. But this is no longer a diet, but a way of life. Nobody is perfect, and this photo is my confirmation ( hereinafter, the spelling and punctuation of the author are preserved. - Ed. ), - wrote Christina.

Confirming her words, she posted a picture showing her stretch marks. Romanova explained that they appeared on the buttocks and chest and have not passed yet.

There is nothing wrong with that. The female body goes through puberty, childbirth, menopause eventually. And it is natural that such metamorphoses occur. They all have disadvantages. Everyone has. And if now you are experiencing some changes in your appearance, know that you are not alone, and the beauty of every woman is unique, - said Romanova.

She and Vladislav Doronin, with whom she began dating in 2014, have two daughters . In February 2016, the couple had Jasmine, and at the end of the summer of 2019, Alexandra was born.
