NextImg:I’m only 52 — but ‘vile’ trolls comment that I look 82 and ‘haggard’

A 52-year-old mom who was trolled for looking 82 and “haggard” says women don’t like to see others doing well.

Nerys Middleton was shocked at the comments when she put a TikTok video up asking ‘how old do I look?’. 

She said the comments ranged from people saying she looked as young as 30 to 82.

Nerys says “vile” trolls told her she was “full of Botox” and to “show us your neck”.

The mom-of-one is confident in herself but was saddened by the abuse online – especially from other women.

Nerys, who works in nursing, from Chester, Cheshire, said: “The comments raged from early 30s to 82.

“They said I’m full of Botox and fillers – which I’m not.

“Some people say your face is not moving. They said I’m 72 and haggard.

“Women are not supporting other women anymore.”

Nerys was able to dismiss the nasty comments but says she did realise she sometimes used filters too much on Instagram.

She said: “People are afraid of putting pictures on without a filter.
