Jessie James Decker praised for showing 'mom skin' in bikini pic: 'It takes a strong woman to do that'


In the new age of mom-shaming, it’s pretty nice to see mom-praising every now and then. Fans flooded Jessie James Decker’s Instagram on Tuesday with positive comments after the star showed off her “mom skin.”

Decker — who gave birth to her third child with former NFL star Eric Decker this spring — shared a bikini pic from her South Beach Diet photo shoot Miami. In the snap, the Just Jessie author can be seen lounging in a black two-piece with her abs on display.

Fellow moms praised her for the unretouched shot. “Thank you for not photoshopping the mom skin!!!” one woman wrote with the hashtag, “#realmommas.” Another added, “You are so raw and unedited. Love you for that. It takes a strong woman to do that now a days.”

Pretty much everyone agreed Decker was serving major inspo. “OMG MOM BOD GOALS,” one person wrote, with another adding, “You look awesome! Inspiring all the mamas out there to rock those mom bodies!” Another user commented, “YES MAMA!!!!!! I love you for showing what it looks like to really carry a baby.”

“I pray I look like this after a few kids!!” another Instagram user wrote.

And one woman thanked Decker “mama to mama” for “showing that beautiful mama belly. It’s beautiful, you’re beautiful and I envy women who make the decision to be honest about their bodies after having their little people.”

Decker’s 3 million followers love the country singer for always keeping it real. In September, she addressed concerns head-on about why she looked “different.”

“I don’t have time to take care of myself,” she simply explained. “I haven’t had my hair colored in I don’t even know how long. I’m like all brunette again. I’m pale. I can’t seem to keep a tan, or a spray tan. And honestly, I just haven’t been wearing as much makeup lately. Because what’s the point?”

Preach, girl!
