"I posted a gym workout on my stoy today and someone replied 'you are fat'," the TV star wrote. "In the past this comment would of still triggered me.
"I've always told myself I was fat and that if I could only get rid of my hip dips or get a boob job so I can see my waist more, I would be accepted in my mind and everyone else around me."
She went on that she had been "condition to hate herself" and felt that today's society made any display of self love was judged as "egotistical".
"I'm here to make it clear, I am full of myself, and what?" Bethan hit out at the cruel troll. "You're getting triggered because I actually like myself?"
Bethan said that she felt it was important for her to "love every inch of her body, mind and soul" as she insisted she felt "sad" for the troll.
"My whole perspective on trolls has completely shifted, I feel nothing but sadness for people who are clearly in pain about something deeper," she wrote.
