Gracie Bon, a renowned plus-size model and fitness influencer, is once again making waves on social media by embracing her natural curves – including stretch marks and cellulite – and encouraging her fans to celebrate their bodies unapologetically.
In a recently posted video, Gracie confidently struts in a leopard-print swimsuit with a powerful caption: “Cellulite is beautiful – lipidema included.” Her message is a bold affirmation that all bodies are worthy of love, regardless of shape or medical conditions.
Gracie, who has been open about living with lipedema – a chronic condition that causes abnormal fat buildup primarily in the arms and legs – refuses to let the illness define her.
Instead, she’s using her platform to raise awareness and empower others to love themselves just as they are.
While she has denied undergoing facial surgery, Gracie hasn’t confirmed whether she’s had procedures done elsewhere on her body. Regardless, her followers admire her for her honesty, strength, and unshakable confidence.
In a delightful twist, Gracie recently revealed her new passion: tennis. She shared a clip of herself dressed in activewear and a sweatband, stepping onto the court with excitement and energy. “A plus-size girl working out in my healthy era,” she wrote.
This isn’t her first athletic venture. Gracie previously went viral with a jogging video in which she wore a printed sports bra and leggings, captioning it: “Who said us chubby girls don’t run?”
More recently, she’s added cycling to her fitness routine, further proving that health and strength come in all shapes and sizes.
While some fans express concern in the comments – wondering, for instance, if she experiences back pain – Gracie remains positive and transparent about her journey, reminding everyone that beauty comes in every form and that confidence and self-love can flourish despite life’s challenges.
