Ashley Graham has no time for haters! She's all about body positivity and undoubtedly a queen, every time she steps on the runway or the red carpet.

The 29-year old model took it to Instagram to clap back at internet trolls that came in strength when she posted a video of herself working out.

"Every time I post a workout video I get comments like, 'You'll never be skinny so stop trying' and 'You still need your fat to be a model'," she wrote on Instagram.

"I workout to stay healthy, feel good, get rid of jet lag, clear my head, show big girls we can move like the rest of them, stay flexible and strong, have more energy. I don't workout to lose weight or my curves, because I love the skin I'm in," she added.

Graham has been a leading role model in teaching young girls to love and accept themselves as they are. She has repeatedly emphasised the need to stay healthy and be confident.

Sadly, a lot of people confuse working out with a way to get skinny rather than staying healthy. We love Ashley for standing up for herself and countless other women who love their bodies as they are.

And, to be honest, why would you even care about haters if you're Ashley Graham? I mean..
