Hailey Bieber reveals 'self-hatred' over post-pregnancy body

Hailey Bieber has revealed she experienced "self-hatred" for her body after having a baby.

The model and entrepreneur opened up about reaching a place of acceptance for her new shape after feeling "self-hatred" driven by reading online comments about her body.

"Every day I have to talk to myself, like, Hailey, you had a baby," Hailey, 28, told Vogue. "You grew a human. You birthed a human. It's okay. Give yourself grace. Give yourself time."

The Rhode founder added it took time to accept that giving birth to her and husband Justin Bieber's son, Jack Blues Bieber, last August, had changed her for good.

"When people talk about 'bouncing back'," she said, "?back where, because my hips are wider, my boobs are actually bigger than they were before. They did not go back. And great, I'll take it, but it's not the same body that it was before."

Hailey explained she'd also had to acknowledge that motherhood hadn't only altered her figure.

"You're not the same person that you were before. You change head to toe," she noted.

"And I think there was a minute where I kept really hyper-?fixating on getting back to what I was. And then I had to go through that acceptance of, I'm not going back. So it's really about how do I want to move forward? Who do I want to be?"
