Never backing down! Jessie James Decker has no time for anyone’s negativity when it comes to her body, her marriage and more.
The outspoken reality TV personality is no stranger to hateful comments on social media, but she handles each and every troll like a total pro. Whether she’s defending her parenting choices or hitting body-shamers where it hurts, the Kittenish founder is never afraid to clap back.
After taking heat in August 2018 for sharing a photo of herself drinking a glass of wine while breastfeeding her son Forrest, then 5 months, Decker told Us Weekly exclusively that she had no plans on apologizing — even though “a lot of people had a problem with it.”
“I have three children. I know what I’m doing now. And it’s totally OK to toast to a celebration and have a drink while you’re breastfeeding,” she said one month after the photo made headlines. “After three children I’ve learned about what things to worry about and what things not to worry about and a sip of wine isn’t one of them!”
At the time, haters on social media thought the “Flip My Hair” singer was “asking” to be mom-shamed. One year earlier, however, the fashion brand owner opened up about how she and husband Eric Decker deal with backlash over their parenting skills.
“It is kind of hard sometimes to feel like you have to filter what you post,” Jessie told E! News in August 2017. “There are some times where you just have to let it go and not let it bother you because, you know, whatever works for your child is what works for your child.”
While Jessie and Eric admit they aren’t perfect, the couple strives to spread positivity online, especially when comments involve their three kids: Vivianne, born in March 2014, Eric, born in September 2015, and Forrest, born in March 2018. “I try not to focus on the negativity and I try to focus on the positive, because there’s so much positivity in the world,” Jessie previously told Health magazine. “I think we should focus more on that than the negativity.”

After sharing a beach pic of her kids’ toned abs, the “Flip My Hair” singer was criticized over how they looked. “It’s a sad world we live in today when having healthy fit kids who are super active, play sports [and] build muscle naturally is ‘weird,’” she wrote via Instagram comment in November 2022. In another message, James Decker wrote: “Please don’t call my children’s appearance strange just because they don’t look the way you think they should? It’s unkind ❤️.” Andrew H.

After Decker discovered that there was a hate page on Reddit dedicated to insulting her image, she took to social media to call out the haters. “I know that I’m not perfect, but you pointing out my flaws — the things I’m already insecure about — it hurts me. And it doesn’t feel good to be picked on or bullied or ripped apart,” she said in a July 2021 Instagram Story. “If you don’t like me, then leave me alone. If you don’t like what I have to say, what I do, anything about me, then stop paying attention to me. Just leave me alone.” Courtesy of Jessie James Decker/Instagram
The "Flip My Hair" singer joked about how she and her husband "keep the spark and spice alive" at home while posing nude in a bath filled to the brim with soapy suds. "Hey babe, come to the bath tub," she wrote in December 2020. "I'm nekkid and wanna show u somethin." When one commenter called the flirty moment "TMI," Jessie fired back, "I can't imagine what's on your computer history. Hopefully nothing as risqué and repulsive as my bubble bath gown."

The fashion designer shared a picture of herself in nothing but a white tee, underwear and slippers — and faced the wrath of mommy-shamers on Instagram. "No different than a swimsuit," she wrote back in April 2020. "I teach my children the body is beautiful. Nothing to be ashamed of." Courtesy of Jessie James Decker/Instagram
"I think we all should focus more on cheering each other on and positivity, because being a mommy is one of the most wonderful things in the world, but it also is hard," Jessie told Health magazine about dealing with trolls in January 2019. "We should stick together and lift each other rather than bring each other down." Courtesy of Jessie James Decker/Instagram
"I know how happy and healthy my children are, and I know how amazing my life is, and I’m proud of it. So I don’t let other people’s negativity join into our family, because we’re happy," the country singer told Us in October 2018 after widespread speculation that her husband had been unfaithful. "It’s all silly. It’s all very silly, and it’s very insignificant to us." Broadimage/Shutterstock
When fans called her out for a "disgusting" photo of herself drinking while breastfeeding, Jessie told Us that she refused to feel bad about the post. "After three children I’ve learned about what things to worry about and what things not to worry about and a sip of wine isn’t one of them!" she said in September 2018.

Though she faced negativity online for the way her body changed after having her three kids, Jessie told Us that she "honestly doesn't think about it" anymore. "Why bother?" she said in September 2018. "Your body is trying to just come back together from just having a human being taken out of [it] ... You’ve got to have some time to heal."

Shortly after the birth of her son Forrest, Jessie opened up about feeling like she had a long way to go with her body in the wake of some harsh comments. "In the end all that matters is he’s healthy and eating well but I’m not going to lie, obviously I would love to see some changes physically," she wrote via Instagram in July 2018. "We have to be patient with ourselves and just do all that you can’t to feel healthy and good in your own skin!!" Courtesy of Jessie James Decker/Instagram
While Jessie admitted that it was sometimes hard to have to "filter" her online life, she told E! News in 2017 that she tried to take it one day at a time. "There are some times where you just have to let it go and not let it bother you because, you know, whatever works for your child is what works for your child," she explained.

In March 2017, the songwriter clapped back at Instagram followers who called out her "imperfections" after she shared a bikini pic and opened up about her breast reduction surgery. "Thanks for pointing out my flaws," she wrote back. "Thanks for also deciding when I should share something personal about my breasts." Courtesy of Jessie James Decker/Instagram
After posting about her experience with breast reduction, Jessie thanked the fans who were spreading positivity on her page. "Love y'all because you accept my scars and dark pits," she teased after defending herself against haters. "Y'all accept me." Courtesy of Jessie James Decker/Instagram
The "Boys in the Summer" singer isn't the only one in her family to face backlash. Jessie went to bat for her husband in January 2017 after a troll told the then-injured NFL star that he let down his team. "I totally agree!" Jessie replied sarcastically. "He really needs to walk out on this family and just focus on football for sure! He is such a piece of s--t. And even though he tore the rotator cuff he should still be out there attempting to catch some balls even though he's been advised to hold off from those silly doctors! Thanks for your thoughts we are really going to think about them now!!" Courtesy of Eric Decker/Instagram
