Danica Patrick's Bold Response to Body Shamers: What Happened on Her Ibiza Trip?
Danica Patrick had a stern message for body shamers who told her to “eat” more.
“Since many have told me to eat after the last post, I shall show you more meals,” the former NASCAR driver wrote on her instagram Stories Tuesday, alongside photos of her food that day.
She said, “Lunch here, and breakfast was 3 eggs plus 2 whites and a large homemade slice of @brooke_selman sourdough with butter and blueberry jam. 🤤.”
Patrick, 44, also included a selfie of her holding an Eat Prima protein bar on the golf course.
In a second post, Patrick used her muscles to paddle board in the ocean while wearing a two-piece red bikini.
“If you don’t lift weights (like for real) and eat your damn protein (not 2 eggs), you don’t have to get muscles,” she told her followers.
“And the more muscle you have, the more you get to eat!!!!!! The end.”
Patrick sparked concern over her weight with bikini photos from her Ibiza vacation Instagram dump that she shared Tuesday.
In her first picture, the retired athlete showed off her skinny body while posing in a neon yellow bikini on the beach.
In the comments, fans made an endless amount of critical comments about Patrick’s weight.
“Danica I normally don’t body shame. But you have an eating disorder. EAT SOME FOOD,” one fan wrote.
“Please eat !!! Please eat!!” another follower said.
Someone else commented, “NOT TRYING TO BE MEAN!!! You look incredibly unhealthy.”
A different fan told Patrick she “should go on a retreat with ariana grande,” who is also facing online weight scrutiny.
“Please put some weight on,” another critic added.
Patrick’s vacation dump also included snapshots of her with her new mystery boyfriend.
One of the photos showed the pair kissing while hiking under a cave structure.
“We saw so many beautiful beaches… but the modes of transportation it took to get there was half the fun,” Patrick captioned the post.
Patrick revealed she has a new boyfriend in December when she shared photos of the two at a luxury hotel in Scottsdale on Instagram.
However, she has yet to reveal his identity.
Patrick famously dated NFL star Aaron Rodgers for two years until they called it quits in July 2020.
Rodgers is now married to a mystery woman named Brittani.
