In her caption, she further wrote, “Every time I post anything—and by the way, this has been the case since I was about 30—I am accused of having had unrecognizable surgery/using Botox using fillers/being obsessed with looking younger, and it’s really such a tiresome and subtly vicious way to bully a person.”

The Pearl Harbour star clarified that she did not have any surgery or use fillers, and yet she is constantly accused and gets hated on social media. Adding on the same line, the British native claimed, “I’m posting this knowing full well that it will have absolutely no effect. It isn’t going to stop.” She further added, “But I’m also posting it because whatever someone looks like, accusing them constantly of things they haven’t done, or being obsessed with youth when actually, currently, I’m obsessed with surviving loss, is bullying.”
