Since the release of the hit Showtime series, Yellowjackets, Melanie Lynskey has had a lot more eyes on her, and with that has come a ton of unsolicited comments and criticism on her appearance.
The actress addressed body-shamers on Twitter, explaining that "skinny does not always equal healthy," and her husband, Jason Ritter shared a subsequent tweet supporting her.
And rightfully so. It's the very definition of binge-worthy, so long as you are not too squeamish.
Unfortunately, with extra fame comes extra unsolicited comments by trolls on her appearance.
She began by admitting that since Yellowjackets premiered, she has been facing needless, critical comments by viewers on her body.
The 44-year-old explained that the comments that bug her the most are the ones that insinuate that she is unhealthy. "Most egregious are the 'I care about her health!' people," she tweeted.
"... You don't see me on my Peloton? You don't see me running through the park with my child?" she tweeted, adding that weight is not always a reflection of health.
This wasn't the first time that Melanie has fired back at criticism of her body. In an interview with Rolling Stone she revealed that she not only felt shamed by fans of the show but also members of the Yellowjackets production team.
Melanie's tweet was met with applause and supportive messages from fans, but one response has stood out among the bunch and it was from her husband, Jason Ritter.
"If anyone has any further unsolicited comments about anybody else’s body, they can feel free to write them in permanent ink onto their own foreheads," he tweeted.
Hats off to Melanie for marrying someone who isn't afraid to stand up for her and fend off trolls.
"Your wife is beautiful. I’ve adored her since Sweet Home Alabama. She seems like one of the sweetest, most genuine people ever. There is nothing wrong with her body," one user tweeted in response.
"People who comment on other people's bodies need to stop and ask themselves, what they have to gain from involving themselves in someone else's life. Why does it matter to you? If a person is happy in their own skin, why do you care what they look like? Be Great Melanie!!!" another user tweeted in response.
"Great response! No one should be defined by their weight — period. Your wife is beautiful and talented. Have been following her for years," another user tweeted.
Jason is also an actor and the son of the late John Ritter. Throughout his career, he has appeared in shows like Raising Dion and Girls.
Melanie and Jason welcomed their daughter in December 2018. The couple is fairly quiet about their personal lives, save for a new candid family photos they occasionally share on social media.
