In 2012, Kate Upton had her first cover on Sport Illustrated Swimsuit Issue and the press started to hound her. While some were positive about Kate Upton’s body and shape, many were negative, some calling her fat. The negative comments tugged at Kate Upton’s insecurities and tarnished her body image. After the experience, Kate Upton didn’t want to wear a bikini in public for fear of the finger pointing and the creepy comments.
Now Kate Upton is 27 and a mom. Being positive about her curves and striving for fitness over thinness, Kate is making an impact with her #ShareStrong Instagram campaign. She believes curvy women need to be body positive and use fitness not as a way to get skinny, but to be healthy. Being a sexy model starts with attitude and belief in yourself. Nina Agdal also uses fitness to stay healthy, without being in the gym constantly.
Kate Upton joined the Skimm’d From The Couch hosts Carly Zakin and Danielle Weisberg to talk about her experiences as a model, being a mom, and reaching fitness to help with being healthy and curvy. Is Kate learning to use fitness and health as a way to find fulfillment?
