Anfisa Nava from 90 Day Fiancé recently defended herself after an internet troll said she was wasting away. She has received polarizing comments on social media ever since she started posting her fitness progress.

Anfisa became the unlikely breakout star of 90 Day Fiancé after her contentious relationship with husband Jorge revealed that she was a loud and proud gold digger. In the seasons since her debut, the cameras have chronicled her attempts at assimilating into American culture while navigating the ups and downs of life with her husband (who is currently in jail on drug charges). What’s a girl to do when living in a strange country under even stranger circumstances? Build her own empire, of course! With Jorge’s multiple convictions and incarcerations, Anfisa took to social media, posting her body-building and fitness progress, while endorsing various health and weight loss products.

That’s when the troll left a comment, criticizing the controversial reality star, according to InTouch Weekly, saying, “I’m not trying to be rude, just honest. You are wasting away to nothing and starting to look unhealthy. The human body needs a percentage of body fat to be healthy.” Anfisa quickly clapped back, educating the troll about healthy body fat. “Absolutely true, but that percentage doesn’t have to be extremely high. Having a healthy amount of fat doesn’t equal being overweight! I have enough fat for all parts of my body to function properly, don’t worry about it.”

During the 90 Day Fiancé season 2 tell-all episode, Jorge hinted that Anfisa was actually earning her living as a sex worker while the two were separated. More trolls took to social media, posting links to webcam sites that allegedly showcased the Russian brunette in sexually explicit poses and interactions. Anfisa vehemently denied it was her in those videos. Jorge has since walked back those comments, admitting that he was just hurt and angry that she had moved on. However, Jorge’s lies only added to Anfisa’s infamy.

Anfisa is a deeply controversial figure in the world of 90 Day Fiancé. Some viewers have vilified her for her openness about requiring financial security in relationships. Then there are the other viewers who love Anfisa’s straightforwardness. She stated her intentions toward Jorge early on and was authentic about her expectations. Love her or hate her, it’s that direct approach that keeps everyone watching Anfisa’s next move. Therefore, branding herself a fitness guru is a commendable step toward her development into a self-sufficient cottage industry. Furthermore, it’s completely inappropriate for anyone to make comments about what she should be doing with her body. To say that Anfisa is melting away is an exaggeration. She appears fit, with highly toned musculature. Moving forward, people should understand that Anfisa’s body belongs to her and if she decides to alter or augment it, she has every right to do so. Furthermore, if they find her body offensive, they can simply skip her social media feed altogether, rather than fixating on every curve or detail of her shape.
