‘Bachelorette’ Ali Fedotowsky Fights Back Against Online Bully, Fans Jump In
Ali Fedotowsky from The Bachelorette managed to stay in the spotlight following her time on the popular ABC dating reality series. Ali now works for E! News, and she is very active on social media. On social media networks, such as Twitter and Facebook, there is a surge of online bullying attacks and celebrities are far from immune. The Stir reported on a recent attack on Twitter Ali Fedotowsky experienced.
A fan tweeted Ali with a comment about her weight, and Ali quickly responded to the tweet with one of her own. She even revealed her dress size. Ali often shares photos of herself on her Twitter and Instagram, and fat is not the first thing that comes to mind when one sees the woman.
I’m a size 4/6 & healthy. Thx RT @SamiaNikkhah @AliFedotowsky for God’s sake you’re on TV. Loose weight. Your arms & waste look disgusting!

Ali Fedotowsky was not alone. Fans also jumped in to defend Ali. One fan commented on the spelling of the online bully’s message to Ali.
@AliFedotowsky @SamiaNikkhah Her “waste” should look disgusting because you know its “poop”. Her “waist” does not look disgusting. GTFO

Since her time on The Bachelorette, Ali’s life has changed. Her relationship with Roberto Martinez from her season did not last long, but she has found love since their split. She has lived with Kevin Manzo for several months, and fans of the former reality star are waiting to hear wedding bells. Ali needed to speak out earlier this month to discount recent reports that she was desperate to marry her long-time boyfriend.
According to Wetpaint Entertainment, Ali Fedotowsky defended herself on Twitter there too after a fan tweeted Fedotowsky a tabloid report from Star Magazine. Ali laughed off the report in a tweet.
Social media does have both positive and negative sides to it. With the creation of Twitter, Facebook, and other social media sites, the door was opened for online bullies to attack people with their words. They can even send celebrities their attacks on Twitter.
However, there is an upside to social media. Celebrities like Ali Fedotowsky can immediately squash rumors and fight back against online bullies when attacks happen. Ali has never been one to shy away from talking on Twitter or other social media networks.
Ali is focusing on the positive in her life. She also enjoys helping out others when she can. the Inquisitr previously reported that Ali Fedotowsky helped dogs during her trip to Sochi for 2014 Winter Olympics earlier this year. She even brought home a dog of her own. Before and during the event, stray dogs were being killed to prevent issues with visitors to the area.
In today’s society, online bullying is a way of life. Ali Fedotowsky handled her bully quickly, but not everyone can do the same. What do you think? Have you been the victim of online bullying?
