In an interview with Fabulous, Olivia Messina shared that despite the negative comments, she flaunted her plus-size legs, belly rolls, size 22 body, and 44H bust in a revealing outfit and confidently moved her body.

“I refuse to work out daily like the bullies tell me I should. If I did, I’d end up like some people who lose weight and are unhappy with their bodies and lives – when I’d much rather be fat and fabulous. I’d lose my social media followers and income, and I’d be miserable. By taking on my trolls and flaunting my size, I was showing them they could do their worst.”

Olivia Messina stated that she refused to conform to societal expectations of how her body should look and continued to confidently showcase her body as a plus-size woman, despite the negative comments.

She added: “Within days, the video posted in June 2021 had racked up over five million views. I’d gone viral and become a social media star. I was getting hundreds of thousands of messages of support from people all over the world telling me I was ‘uber-glam,’ inspirational, a Queen, and a Goddess.”

She received comments from some individuals telling her she was a bad influence and urging her to drink bleach, and was also called stupid.

“That makes me laugh because I have two university degrees including graduating in 2019 from York University in Canada with a Master’s in Social Studies. I’m not bothered by the criticism, people can say what they like. I won’t be fat-shamed, plenty of people love the way I look; in fact, I get dozens of marriage proposals a week,” she added.

Despite her current confidence, Olivia Messina’s journey to self-love took over 25 years.

As a teenager, Olivia Messina was a size 16 at 14 years old. By the time she graduated high school in June 2013, her size had increased to 18-20.

She said: “I was always the ‘fat friend’ accepted by the girls because I was overweight and not a threat. Boys, especially young lads were viciously labelling me a cow, fat arse and lard butt. In July 2017 I was my heaviest, hitting 24st and at five foot nine which does make me technically morbidly obese with a score of 50. If you believe the BMI index that puts me at a greater risk of diabetes, heart disease and early death.”

Eventually, Olivia Messina came to understand that being skinny was not the key to happiness and that self-love, both inside and out, was necessary to be contented.

Currently, Olivia Messina is single. However, the men who have expressed interest in her have typically been athletic and of average build, and have expressed attraction to her plus-size figure.

She said: “They can’t get enough of my confidence and body positivity. And yes I often get jealous looks from girls struggling to work out why the man is dating me. I have thousands of big girls telling me I inspire them and they wish they could have confidence. I get frustrated because people automatically assume people who are plus size aren’t healthy. I walk, I eat healthily, and in my opinion, obesity is a state of mind.”

Overall, Olivia Messina’s career as a plus-size model is thriving. Her fans enjoy her body positivity, dance videos, makeup tutorials, and fashion styling.
