Christina Applegate has gained 40 pound Since diagnosed
Christina Applegate has shrugged off the harsh troll’s insults that made fun of her MS battle.
The “Dead To Me” actress, who revealed last year that she was diagnosed with the degenerative neurological condition, acknowledged that she recently looked at online comments on photos of her from the Critics Choice Awards and was horrified by some of the hateful posts.
As a result, she responded to one of the posts and posted the troll’s response.
A screenshot of the comments – which Christina posted on Twitter – read: “MS didn’t make you look that way a plastic surgeon did. And you are a scammer and are not [Christina] Applegate.” A second message added: “And a bad plastic surgeon at that.”
Christina then wrote: “Sooooo I made the unfortunate decision to look at some comments on an article from people mag about me and my kids at the CCA. Of course I told her that it wasn’t nice. This was her reply.”
The 51-year-old TV star then added: “What is wrong with people. By the way, I laughed.”
After filming for the third season of her sitcom “Dead To Me” was put on hold so that Christina could process the news, she announced in August that she had been diagnosed with MS.
She recently told the New York Times: “There was the sense of, ‘Well, let’s get her some medicine so she can get better’. And there is no better. But it was good for me. I needed to process my loss of my life, my loss of that part of me. So I needed that time [off from the show].”
The actress went on to add she put on 40 pounds after her diagnosis and was worried about the reaction of fans when they saw her back onscreen in the Nertflix show. She explained: “This is the first time anyone’s going to see me the way I am. I put on 40 pounds; I can’t walk without a cane. I want people to know that I am very aware of all of that.”
