Lindsay Arnold is famous for her role in Dancing With the Stars. Now, however, she has come under scrutiny after posting a picture of herself lounging beside the pool in a red, two-piece bikini. However, the professional dancer was skewered on social media because her C-section scar was visible in the bikini shot. Nevertheless, Arnold turned to Instagram to let her fans – and critics – know that she is proud of her bikini photo because it shows off her “favorite” body part.
Back in November, Arnold gave birth to a baby girl with her husband, Sam Cusick. Their baby girl is named Sage and has added so much love and happiness to Arnold’s life since her birth. Since the baby’s birth, fans of the dancer have been questioning how much content and the type of content she has been posting to social media.
She added: “I seriously want to show my scar to everyone I see cause I think it’s so insane and crazy cool that Sage came out of that little cut in my belly?! I mean, come on, how incredible is that?! What’s also incredible are amazing doctors that make it possible to do a c-section and have the scar be so low it is not even visible in a bikini (I had to pull my suit down low for this) which is why you all are not seeing it in my pics. I would never and have never photoshopped any part of my body and wanted a dedicated post to my beautiful scar that I truly love so much.
Her viral post was met with a massive response. More than 102,000 people liked her post, which has only been on social media for three days at the time of this writing. She concluded her viral post as follows:
“So hahaha for those who care or even read this far, no, I am not photoshopping my scar out of anything, and in case anyone forgot, WOMEN’S BODIES ARE INCREDIBLE.”
Fans were delighted that Lindsay Arnold would put her feelings out there like that.
“This (could) really help someone struggling with their scars and learn to embrace them. Such a beauty.”
“The fact you have to even share this. Keep on rocking, momma!”
