The ‘How I Met Your Father’ sitcom star says she’s learned to deal with the media and now has a healthier relationship with her body
34-year-old actress Hilary Duff spoke about her “battle” with an eating disorder when she was a teenager, at the age of 17.
Duff gave an interview in the January issue of ‘Women’s Health Australia’ and there she revealed that she faced this serious health problem. The actress became famous when she was only 14 years old, thanks to the Disney series “Lizzie McGuire”.
Although the show only ran for two seasons, it was a worldwide success and made the then-young actress known around the world. The series was so successful that today, 20 years after its first airing, a new season is to be released. While starring in the hit series, Hilary Duff also launched a successful music career.
It was during this time, the star explains, that she became obsessed with her body image. “Because of the trajectory of my career, I was thinking, ‘I’m on camera and female actors are thin,'” she revealed. He added: “It was terrifying.”
The “How I Met Your Father” sitcom star said she learned to deal with the media and now has a healthier relationship with her body. “I value my health, I do activities that make me feel strong instead of just improving my appearance.
I spend time with people who make me feel good and share similar views on health and body positivity, I get enough sleep and I eat a balanced diet,” concluded Hilary Duff.
The interview comes just months after the actress appeared nude on the cover of the US edition of ‘Women’s Health’ and also opened up about her battle to live up to Hollywood’s beauty standards.
“I feel like the older I get, the more confident I am. I think at 34, I have gained a lot of respect for my body. He’s taken me to all the places I need to go, he’s helped me build a beautiful family.”
Hilary Duff is a mother of three. She had her first child with former ice hockey player Mike Comrie, whom she split in 2014. The two youngest are from her marriage to her current husband, musician Matthew Koma.
