“Since websites and magazines love to share ‘celeb flaws’ – well I have them!” Hilary captioned the photo, telling her more than 8 million followers that her body had given her “the greatest gift of my life,” her 5-year-old son Luca.

She signed off with a message to her haters and the body shamers of the world, writing, “#kissmya**.”
Hilary previously opened up about loving her body and accepting herself for who she is on the social media site with another inspiring caption back in February.
