A 52-year-old mum who was trolled for looking 82 and "haggard" says women don't like to see others doing well.
Nerys Middleton was shocked at the comments when she put a TikTok video up asking 'how old do I look?'.
She said the comments ranged from people saying she looked as young as 30 to 82.
Nerys says "vile" trolls told her she was "full of Botox" and to "show us your neck".
The mum-of-one is confident in herself but was saddened by the abuse online - especially from other women.
Nerys, who works in nursing, from Chester, Cheshire, said: "The comments raged from early 30s to 82."

00:00How old do I look? What's my age? I've got no filter, no foundation, I've got no contour,
00:25no nothing like that, I've just got some white eyeliner on because I'm tired
00:31and I've got some Vaseline on my lips so this is my natural skin.
00:43How old am I? I'm not understanding why people think that to look okay at a mature age that
00:53we have to have loads and loads of work done and things like that. There is such a thing of
01:02just looking after yourself all through your life. I mean that is what I've done, that is what I've
01:09always done. I eat very healthy, I don't eat processed foods, I don't drink alcohol, I don't
01:16smoke cigarettes, I try not to go in the sun, I keep my weight down to my BMI.
01:31You have just got to look after yourself, you can't expect to abuse your own bodies
01:38and then expect somebody to fix it for you because you're the only one who can
01:46do that, you're the only one who can look after yourselves.
