In fabulous news, we are seeing more body representation than ever! Even in magazines like Sports Illustrated. Still, it was completely joyful to see Hughes looking gorgeous with her c-section scar on display.
Hughes wrote on her Instagram, “I struggled with insecurities from my scar being that I’m a model and my incredibly difficult recovery but it wasn’t until I “embraced my scar that I experienced the true power in it “
Here at B&T, we love to see it.
