Woman Hits Back At Trolls Who Say Her 'Fat and Ugly' Boyfriend Is Punching Above His Weight

Ashley Stevens, 21, from Georgia, snapped an adorable and hilarious moment with her boyfriend Christopher Reed, also 21, after she caught the bouquet at a friend’s wedding.

In the selfie, a grinning Ashley can be seen holding the flowers while sitting next to Christopher who is putting on a stunned expression as her father shoots him a stern look. The sweet set up was silly enough that Ashley's friend thought she'd post it on Reddit so others could share in the joke.

But commenters called her boyfriend 'fat' and 'disgusting'. 

'That fatty would be lucky to marry that hot b***h,' wrote one, with another adding: 'If I looked like him...and l was dating her... l wouId wife her up real quick.'

'Hey Tubbo... marry that girl... you're never going to find better!' advised another.

One cruel joker wrote: 'Do you know why she's with him? Gravitational pull.'

One user even suggested that Ashley's dad was making the stern face because 'as a good father he wouldn't want his daughter to be saddled with the crippling medical debt that enormous boyfriend of hers would no doubt accrue in his life'.

The cruel taunts were mainly aimed at Christopher's size but some also suggested that his appearance made him look like he was 'missing a chromosome'.

'Is her boyfriend somewhere behind the fat and mildly retarded gentleman?' asked one user, while others just asked if Christopher had Down Syndrome.

The awful comments were not taken lightly by Ashley, who has been with her boyfriend for more than two and a half years.

Horrified, she took to Facebook to defend Christopher, writing that she was surprised at how quickly he was judged by absolute strangers.

'Well let me just tell you, I won the jackpot with Christopher,' said Ashley. 'He may not have rock hard abs like the world tells girls to want in a guy, but really, why does that even matter when you are trying to really find someone to spend the rest of your life with?

'He is so thoughtful and patient, he always shows me how he loves me in little ways, he is my best friend. I love him for who he is and he loves me for who I am. Understanding, loving, and hilarious, which is so rare to find these days!!'

She goes on to say how she felt that: 'God saw the desires of my heart and blessed me with Christopher.'

Support has poured in for Christopher following Ashley's post. He's received over 200 friend requests.

He says he simply 'laughed' the comments off. 

'People were saying she was too good-looking for me and that it looks like I have Down syndrome', he said. 'Some comments said there was no way I could be her boyfriend and they made fun of my weight.'

'When we looked at what people were saying, we laughed,' he added. 'We both have the mind-set that that we understand who we are as individuals and what we have for each other.'

As for the wedding? Christopher explained he's 'excited' but it will have to wait until after college.
