Proud of the fact that I’ve deleted all those apps and chosen this instead. This is me and I’m embracing every inch, every curve, all of me” adding the hashtag “you are beautiful”.

D'Cruz revealed in 2017 at the 21st World Congress of Mental Health that she suffered from Body Dysmorphic Disorder and had suicidal thoughts as a result of it.

She had shared another photo without filters in October 2020, along with a body positivity note, “I’ve always worried about how I looked. I’ve worried my hips are too wide, my thighs too wobbly, my waist not narrow enough, my tummy not flat enough, my boobs not big enough, my butt too big, my arms too jiggly, nose not straight enough, lips not full enough.....I’ve worried that I’m not tall enough, not pretty enough, not funny enough, not smart enough, not “perfect” enough,” her caption read.
