The striking visual comes weeks after Badmus opened up about her weight-loss journey, revealing she had shed an extraordinary amount of weight, dropping from 170kg down to 83kg.
Rather than celebrating in silence, the actress used the moment to address a painful reality: that body-shaming followed her at both ends of the scale.
People criticised her appearance when she was plus-size, and those same voices have continued now that she has lost the weight.
Badmus on Self-Love and the Weight-Loss Journey
Earlier in the year, Badmus shared another set of before-and-after images alongside a message directed at plus-sized women.
Her words carried a clear point: carrying extra weight is not what holds a person back, but rather the self-doubt and self-hatred that can come with it. She encouraged women in similar situations to embrace who they are while working towards whatever goals they set for themselves.

The conversation around her transformation is not new. Last year, the actress reflected on her personal growth while sharing photos of her slimmer frame, describing herself as standing in a better place mentally and emotionally. She spoke of a renewed mindset and a deep sense of gratitude for where life had brought her.
Badmus continues to be one of Nollywood’s most recognisable faces, and her openness about her body image struggles has clearly struck a chord with many who follow her journey.
