In response to the comment, she mad a new Instagram post with the following caption:

I don’t have time to get botox shots and due to a problem in my thyroids I have to be on medication for a year and it’s causing me to swell up. I don’t know why and I thought I was just gaining weight but I guess it was a problem with my health. I’m sorry for looking like this I will try to get better soon.
