Ben Higgins - Lauren Bushnell - Bachelor 20 - Discussion - #7

He's busting out MLK for some internet trolls? Yeah, she's super unbothered by the comments I like the sentiment though, out of everyone that's spoken out on her behalf, he's the one i'm not bothered by. He SHOULD be out here riding out for his woman.

Good for Ben for sticking up for her. I love the MLKJr quote. Powerful!

Well yeah, of course the comments have gotten to her. That's pretty obvious, and to me, understandable. I don't think anyone is disputing that, or saying this stuff never bothers her and she's teflon.

I'm glad Ben is sticking up for her and being publicly supportive. That's his job.

Sweet of Ben to stick up for his fiancé, but why is he comparing Lauren getting skinny shamed/bullied online with a MLK quote? Celebs get worst stuff posted about them everyday. Lauren needs thicker skin asap. The fact that even Ben had to publicly say something means she's really really affected by all of this. JMO

Hate is hate regardless of to what degree and what the hate is about.The quote IMO conveyed his msg and thoughts clearly.

Of course Ben was going to publicly say something, when the trash is brought to his ig account, even when he's promoting a charity. Lauren isn't 'only' body shamed, she's degraded as a human, basically called trash. The lunatics are tagging Ben's and Lauren's friends, too. Imo body shaming is a really serious issue, people actually revert to self harming over it. Telling someone to grow thicker skin is Imo brushing the problem under a rug. Imo nothing Lauren has done warrants this, and imo if Ben feels the need to quote MLKjr to get his point across, then that's good for him. Jmo.

That is good that ben is doing that.Although I have to admit lauren should grow with thick skin and continue to ignore all these nonsense stupid comments and stop wasting her time. The truth is whatever she is posting on her sm people will going to be stupid . She cannot control them . Yeah she can say something and called them out . But I bet these stupid people will stop there. She already did it and called them out several times on her sm . And nothing happens . I don't tolerate bullying but that is the nature of sm, crazy world .jmo

I'm glad Ben said something. A lot of those people claim to love Ben while bashing his fiancée to her face. Who needs enemies with fans like that?

Even though Ben posted that quote, it won't stop people from criticizing Lauren. Welcome to SM folks. The place where people can spew insults and hide behind their phones/computers. It will never stop.

It's still nice to see his support though. Probably won't work but still.

I see that most of the people making negative comments to Lauren are JoJo fans. Good gravy! JoJo is much more suited with Jordan. Some of these Bach girls need to re-evaluate their SM pages though. Quit with the duck faces, the sexy outfits, the weird poses and people might start to take you more seriously. Jmho.

Actually, you would be surprised to see the amount of trolls that go after Lauren that are actually Ben fans. I think after HEA, they decided they didn't want him with Lauren anymore. They sadly don't think she's good enough for him. That's when the hate became crazy for her. HEA was not a good idea for multiple reasons. 

The person who harassed JoJo about her being connected to bad groups in other countries because she's half Persian is also a crazy Ben and Lauren fan. It's a vicious cycle. I blame Ben!
