Candace Cameron Bure hits back at body shamers with new skin-baring photo after swimsuit drama

Candace Cameron Bure is hitting back at body shamers with her latest skin-baring photo.

The “Full House” alum showed off her midriff while posing in a white Artfish crop top ($15) for a mirror selfie shared to her Instagram Stories Tuesday.

She paired the top with some loose-fitting tan trousers from Splendid ($110 to $158) and TKEES’ Gemma style braided sandals in suede ($95).

She followed up the snap with another fashion-forward photo of herself sporting a chic ’90s style miniskirt set from Show Me Your Mumu. She wore the brand’s Cher Mini Skort ($98) and Cher Cardigan ($128).

The post comes a week after the “Fuller House” star, 49, admitted to deleting a swimsuit photo of herself after she received an influx of body-shaming comments from trolls on Instagram.

At the time, she explained on her Instagram that she wore a one-piece swimsuit in the original picture, “not a bikini,” while “soaking up the end of summer” and “having fun.”

“It wasn’t about the bathing suit or my body,” she recalled of the criticism she received. “But the comments became flooded with people discussing my body.”

“It wasn’t worth it. I took it down,” she closed.

The sensitive topic is a sore spot for the actress who previously struggled with eating disorders and body image issues, which she opened up about in her 2010 memoir, “Reshaping It All.” She admitted that her unhealthy relationship with food later developed into bulimia.

In April, Bure tearfully recalled how “harshly” she treated herself during her early years before she found help through her religion.

On her eponymous podcast, she shared that she had “very vivid memories of being in 5th grade and 6th grade” when she first began to feel “so bad” about her body.

She went on to explain that she had “been on every single diet plan since [she] was 12 years old,” exploring everything from Jenny Craig and Weight Watchers to Nutrisystem and more.

Given her “history of eating disorders,” Bure explained that she has always struggled to maintain a healthy relationship with food.
