“The only things I share about my [life] with you all is through Instagram and Twitter. I do want my privacy. Especially in my relationships,” she wrote.

“I’ve made the mistake in the past on being way too open and talking way too much about them. This time is different. It’s special. And I will share what I seem ‘appropriate’ on social media because I still want you guys to be updated. Because you guys are the greatest fans in the world. I even hate saying fans…because you’re people.

“You’re people who had chronic illnesses, eating disorders, trouble[d] family situations that modern family helps you get through. People who share their stories with me and I love you all for that. So thank you all for always [being] so wonderful.”

She also explained that… “ONE MORE THING! I just realized I’m being criticized for being naked…which you don’t even know if I am!

“You can barely see any skin but it’s ok for Instagram models to roll around in the sand ACTUALLY naked? (I mean, I’d post that too if I looked like that). My point is don’t be hypocrites. Either be conservative on all fronts or FREE THE NIPPLE.”
