Plus-size supermodel Ashley Graham loves her body no matter what.

Ashley Graham, who is expecting her first child, recently shared a photo on Instagram showing off her pregnant body, stretch marks and all.

“Same same but a little different,” Graham captioned her photo.

She received an overwhelmingly positive response from her Instagram followers, who commended her for being willing to share photos of her unretouched body.

“I’m a man and I love seeing this. My Mom she had 10 of us. I remembered as a child seeing her tummy. She explained what they were and it made me felt sad for her. My wife now is on her third trimester. I can see how my unborn son is changing her physical look. Love to all women out there and what you’re going through for us men. Any man can drive a straight line, takes an expert to master the curves!” a user named @vavau_viking wrote.

“I CANNOT WAIT for you to be a mother and teach another human being that ALL bodies are beautiful. You’re going to be such an amazing mother,” 17bravo_sierra76 wrote.

Graham promotes the message of “Beauty Beyond Size,” and hosts a podcast promoting body positivity called Pretty Big Deal.
