Elle Macpherson responds to troll who accused her of ruining her 'beautiful face': 'I'm me — healthy, happy and nearly 60'

Elle Macpherson is 55, fabulous and not afraid to show it. The supermodel recently shared her fitness secrets while simultaneously posing in a bikini, but this week, Macpherson had to chase off a troll who tried to shame her looks.

In a Sunday Instagram post, the wellness-minded star shared a picture of herself and Dr. Will Cole, a functional medicine expert and consultant.

Though she received much love from her fans, someone appeared to be unhappy with the former model’s looks.

“Whatever your [sic] doing to your face STOP IT! You don't look like yourself anymore! WTF Why do people with money & not want to ruin their beautiful faces. Please stop you were beautiful now not so much,” the commenter ranted.

Macpherson had the best response.

“The only thing I’m doing is aging gracefully without interference. Sorry if it doesn’t work for your vision of what you think I should look like. I’m me. Healthy happy and nearly 60. Go figure,” she said.

Fans quickly came to Macpherson’s defense.

“You have been an inspiration for me for half my life. I only hope I can age just as gracefully, and be half as healthy,” one fan wrote.

“Naturally beautiful before, now and always,” another wrote.

“Honestly people don’t think about what they say,” added a commenter. “You are the epitome of aging beautifully, you are looking fantastic on the outside and I know you’re doing all you can to be healthy on the inside. It’s the inside that counts especially as we get older.”
