Last year, the actress shared a new photo on social media, which clearly caught the attention of her followers. Comments focused on her thinner hair and the yellowish tint of her eyes. The upset actress reacted nervously to being attributed with various illnesses.

Explain to me where I look sick. Did you lose track of time and not notice I’m not 14 anymore? It's sad that you left such a comment - she addressed one of the internet users.
