Robbie Williams Instagram – Thank you for your lovely messages of support yesterday. I feel I must clarify that I actually wasn’t hurt by any of the mean stuff posted. Truthfully, I just noticed them and thought ‘’This is not ok’’
I showed them to Ayda in the car on the way back from the pop-up premier thing. Our general feelings towards them were more ‘’Wow, tough room, people are weird’’ These were messages on my own insta page too.
Considering I have body dysmorphia and low self-esteem the fact that I wasn’t hurt by them shows how far I’ve come. That or being skinny-shamed feels better than being fat-shamed. Yeah, thinking about it its probably that.
A journalist once wrote a story about me. We had a face-to-face interview. When I read back what he’d written. The effects would last a long time. He went into every facet of my appearance and in the end concluded that I was in effect ‘’Grotesque’’.
That interview was in 2005. Yesterday when I walked around the pop-up store for my Netflix doc and all the pictures of me over the years were on display.
All I could hear or think was ‘’Grotesque’
And then afterwards I got into bed and watched Big Brother and Mafs and had a lovely time.
That’s the thing my low self-esteem doesn’t run the show anymore.
It just pops up in my pop-up from time to time.

Namaste ❤️🙏 | Posted on 03/Nov/2023 15:01:35
