Many fans attributed her dramatic weight loss to recent motherhood, with one writing: "Girl don't let these people make you feel like you not human with the body shaming..... You will feel better once you heal though."
However, before the news of her health even broke, some fans were already leaping to the star's defence. One supporter said: "She has always been petite.. and beautiful and us women should be the last people in her comments, to comment on another queen's weight. Y'all act like y'all haven't lost 10 pounds or gained 10 pounds and y'all whole entire life."
The comment continued; "People are so judgmental and love to break people down for no reason. Y'all don't know this lady from a can of paint, but continue to comment on her page negativity."
Once the Dr Phil alum shared her diagnosis, the comments shifted to a more supportive tone and many fans posted their well wishes for her following her Instagram post. One commented: "She just revealed that she is on cancer medication. People need to have more empathy instead of jumping to conclusions and assuming. Let's pray for her and send her strength not make jokes."
