Eva Amurri defends Olivia Culpo’s bridal dress after violent backlash

August 5, 2024

After both brides received criticism from violent trolls, Eva Amurri’s child, who defended the other bride’s wedding dress, said it was “impossible to be a woman.”

Eva, 39, and restaurateur Ian Hock tied the knot in late June, but she made remarks about how her breasts looked in her.

Model Olivia’s” traditional and conservative” outfit was similarly branded as when she walked down the aisle with Christian McCaffrey, a football player, the same day.

Writing on her blog Eva said: ‘]Olivia ] had done what she had set out to do, and her day was absolutely perfect for her and for her new husband,’.

When I looked at Olivia’s wedding photos ( and I do n’t know her at all, by the way ), I was n’t seeing how inappropriate or inappropriate her dress would be for me.

I was observing a person who was taking her own terms and acting with authority as she entered the second chapter of her living on HER DAY.

Olivia broke her silence after receiving criticism for her remarks from Christian’s new partner.

The former beauty queen received harsh criticism for her high-necked outfit and a Vogue meeting in which she claimed her husband found her “most beautiful when she wears something amazing, covered, and stylish.”

She told: ‘ I was certainly very surprised. Personally, I believe I like to offer individuals the benefit of the doubt. And sadly, I feel as though my statements were inserted into a wider purpose than what I had in mind.

I made the decisions I wanted to feel like choosing those choices would be ones I could be happy of in 50 times. I loved every aspect of my marriage because I love my husband and the persons we got to enjoy that day with. And that’s it.’

She stated about choosing the outfit that,” I wanted to feel like myself in every way possible,” And I believe that’s where my choice to be more down was made.

‘ Stylistically I had a perspective. Artistically, I felt like I was making a decision that was going to stand the test of time, and that’s it. I felt very comfortable in it, for what it’s for. I was on the ocean, and the weather was very good.

She previously said of the gown: ‘ I did n’t want it to exude sex in any way, shape or form.’

Writing on her Happily Eva After blog Eva said: '[Olivia] had done what she had set out to do, and her day was absolutely perfect for her and for her new husband,'

It comes after Olivia broke her silence over the backlash following new husband Christian branded an influencer 'evil' for their comments (pictured together in 2023)

Eva reconnected to her Instagram Story on Wednesday to more smear critics who had been left’scandalized’ by her extensive breasts.

She allegedly turned an classic 1957 pictures of Sophia Loren side-eyeing a busty Jayne Mansfield into a now-deleted image in response to the website reaction.

On her bridal day, Eva gently reminded critics that her “32F boobs” were merely “minding their business.”

She continued the fun with two more IG Story posts as she joked that she had her” t*ts out” at her rehearsal dinner.

Eva recently expressed her grief in an openly fair post that was shared on her blog, and she acknowledged that the powerful hate caused her to cry.

She stated that she was “on cloud nine” after the wedding and could n’t wait to show the world the photos, but the response she received immediately shocked her.

‘ When I checked in on the article… I was thus taken away by the notion that it was already viral… and for two factors completely out of my power: My Breasts,’ she wrote.

It had never crossed my mind that people would care so much about what I’d wear on my own wedding day, especially since I do n’t even know how offensive my body would be.

Eva, who Susan and Franco Amurri share with Italian filmmaker Franco Amurri, claimed that as the mother of three children and breastfeeder, her bust size had “variated” over the years and that she had “always been quite large-chested.”

Eva tied the knot with chef Ian Hock in late June, but said comments over the way her chest looked in her strapless Kim Kassas gown reduced her to tears

She returned to her Instagram Story on Wednesday to further prod critics who were left 'scandalised' by her ample cleavage

According to PEOPLE , she responded to the online backlash again by turning an iconic 1957 photo of Sophia Loren side-eyeing a busty Jayne Mansfield into a now-deleted meme; Loren and Mansfield seen in a similar image

She is a mother to daughter Marlowe, eight, and children Major and Mateo, both four, from her nine-year relationship to former football star Kyle Martino, 43.

Eva added that” the more your stomach is exposed and opened up, the more attractive clothing is to your entire figure”- something she particularly considered when looking for the perfect clothing to put the” I do” sign in.

I had deliberately gone to my wedding dress to buy body parts for myself, but I wanted to show my figure and definitely celebrate myself as a woman, she continued.

‘” Hot” and “elegant” were two thoughts that I mentioned at every clothing visit.’

She included a few of the’ callous’ comments in the post, which read,’ Yeah sleeveless gowns are n’t for everyone,’ ‘ Terrible, inappropriate dress,’ ‘ Terrible dress. So unflattering. Put them away,” That’s the weirdest display of tatas my eyes have ever seen,’ and ‘ Droopy]boobs].’

Eva reflected on reading the mean messages and felt hot tears spring to my eyes in a way that brought me right back to middle school.

Here were people I did n’t even know and who did n’t know me, who were wasting time and effort typing something that they hoped would bring me one thing and one thing only: Shame. And for a second, it worked.’

The actress claimed that she had received a lot of “horrible things” directed at her on the internet in the past, so she assumed she had thick skin.

Eva previously reflected on the nasty comments she received in an unflinchingly honest post shared to her blog, and she admitted that the intense hate made her cry

She explained that she was on 'cloud nine'  but immediately, she was 'taken aback' by the response that she received  from followers (pictured with mother Susan)

However, the “yucky feeling” of knowing that there were so many “people out there” whose immediate reaction was to try to hurt her was what really brought her down.

‘ I was being picked apart by strangers for things I try to never qualify about myself ( what my breasts look like in clothes ), because I’m a human being just trying to feel beautiful, be a good person, raise my kids, and enjoy my life,’ she continued.

It had never even crossed my mind that people would react so strongly to what my body looked like in a dress I chose for my own wedding, I thought, perhaps stupidly.

‘ When you are processing this type of emotional aggression from strangers, it is so unsettling.

I want to tear that person apart in public because I could never in a million years imagine seeing an image of them living their happiest moment. Even if I hated them.’

She theorized that the hate came down to ‘ fear, self-loathing, insecurity, and rage.’

‘ I stopped feeling sorry for myself and started feeling sorry for those people,’ she added.

Eva expressed shock at the idea that her daughter would be growing up in a time when women’s bodies are still a battleground.

Are my breasts still as cheery as they were when they were 20 years old before they spent the third time sustaining human life? Definitely not,’ she stated.

She continued the fun in two follow-up IG Story posts as she joked that she also had her 't*ts out' at her rehearsal dinner

She also let her followers know that her now-husband, chef Ian Hock, was a big fan of all of her busty wedding frocks

In 2016, Eva's mom Susan faced very similar backlash for baring her cleavage in a low-cut blazer and bra while presenting the in memoriam segment at the SAG Awards

At the time, critics slammed Susan's outfit as 'inappropriate' given the somber nature of the segment she was hosting

‘ Do I care? Some days more than others. But my body is n’t something I’m ashamed of.’

But ultimately, she viewed it as a valuable lesson and said she hoped that speaking out about it would make other women feel more at ease in their own skin.

‘ I do n’t really have a mission statement here, nor do I have an answer. But I do have a message,’ she concluded.

‘ Do n’t believe the hype. When you felt beautiful? YOU WERE. When you felt like a woman? YOU WERE.

When your body appeared to be carrying out its intended function? IT WAS. You do n’t need anybody’s permission to make the choices you make for yourself.

And when people comment on those choices? Well, that’s none of your business.’

At Windrift Hall in New York’s Hudson Valley, Eva and her three-year chef boyfriend exchanged vows.
