Marion Bartoli turned down rumours that were spreading over the net about her being anorexic. The 2013 Wimbledon champion has gone through an impressive body transformation since quitting tennis few days after winning the title in London.
Rather than gaining weight after the end of her professional career as an athlete, Marion started to lose weight, as visibly and evidently portrayed on her social media accounts of Facebook and Instagram.
Here are some pictures of Marion taken by the French herself recently:
The difference in Bartoli’s shape is evident compared to how Marion used to look like back in the days when she won her first major title. Have a look:
The drastic change pushed people to start wondering if something was wrong with the French tennis champion. Soon after rumours started to spread about an alleged anorexia of the Wimbledon champion.
Finally, Marion decided to speak up in her defence, turning down the critics and making it clear that she has no eating disorder nor she is obsessed with her image.
“I am doing well. That is what people don’t understand. I am not skinny, I have muscles and am in good shape. I just started to eat more healthy, is not like I am not eating anything. I started to lose weight gradually and I am engaging in light physical activities such as yoga. People can’t say that I am anorexic. I am not obsessed with my body image. My priority is my job and I want that to go well. If I were to have issues with my body and shape I would have been home weighing myself every day” said Marion.
