AFL WAG Chloe Pink, the wife of North Melbourne star Toby, has fired back at online trolls who left shocking comments about her appearance on social media.
In March this year, the 25-year-old received a torrent of cruel abuse that left her in tears after posting photos of her wedding day.
In a powerful stand against body-shaming and online harassment, Pink called out the trolls and found support from thousands of people.
Last week, Pink was targeted again after she posted a heartwarming clip of her and the Kangaroos defender.
'Soulmated so hard I moved interstate 4 times for him,' she captioned a video showing herself and Toby at different footy events.
Most of the comments were respectful, but a few trolls once again posted shocking remarks - and were promptly shot down by Pink and other commenters.
One TikTok user commented: 'Respect to him but I don't understand how an AFL player dates someone so out of shape. Surely that would kill him being so different to his partner. Quite sad.'
Pink replied: 'Not all peoples body shapes reflect their lifestyles buddy, so keep your thoughts to yourself!'
Another user posted: 'AFL players bagging 4's will never make sense to me.'
Pink made a separate video to address that individual, telling him to leave her alone, while lip-syncing the popular TikTok sound 'What an odd thing to say'.
A huge amount of comments backed Pink to the hilt.
'What a lucky fella he is to have you Chloe. You keep being wonderful beautiful you,' posted one.
'They are just jealous that you got a AFL player and they didn't,' replied another.
'This comment section is just filled with the most insecure muppets to ever exist,' said a third.
Pink, who has been in a relationship with her man for more than seven years, has detailed how the abuse she received about her wedding photos impacted her.
'I didn't think they'd be so horrible,' she told News Corp.
'It is easier said than done to ignore them. It is just a natural thing to read something about yourself.'
'People say bad things about footballers, but they talk about how they play, not their appearances.
'We both sat there and cried. He has been really good, really supportive, and he tells me he loves me and that I'm beautiful.
'The comments were so vile and disgusting that they had to be deleted, and eventually, the comments were turned off completely. All because I don't fit the typical "WAG mould".
'Being married to a professional athlete does not give anyone the right to comment on my body or size.
'My weight is influenced by underlying health conditions – though frankly, that's no one's business, and it shouldn't matter either way.'
Pink says the behaviour will only really be stamped out if men get involved in standing up to it.
'I was having a conversation with my husband and he said, "It's up to us men to call it out". It's not going to stop,' she told Will & Woody on KIIS FM.
'We need more men, unfortunately, guys. Sorry, I need you to call it out because these women are sticking up for me, but it's not the women who are making the comments.
'It's not going to stop if men aren't calling it out.'
