'inspiration' Model Roz Purcell praised on social media after sharing unedited photos
Roz Purcell has been declared an “inspiration” by her social media followers for her honesty on the “reality” of getting the perfect snap.
The Tipperary native has been praised for sharing unedited photos on social media and pointing out that "a picture does not say thousands (of) words."
“You’ve no idea if that person is actually having the time of their life or not, good or bad day,” she suggested.
“Ah sure look we all know by now it’s all smokes and mirrors. Behind every photo you see is about 50 in between shots, a patient friend & a filter.
“Also a picture does not say thousands words you’ve no idea if that person is actually having the time of their life or not, good or bad day.
“If we go into 2021 taking this place with a pinch of salt it’ll surely help while we’re stuck inside scrolling”, Roz added.
The former Miss Universe Ireland received numerous messages applauding her words, with one thanking her for her honesty.
“These posts are so amazing @rozannapurcell and I love that you have the courage and honestly to share them and make everyone feel normal..keep up the great work.”
Roz recently shared a hilarious snap of her Christmas Day.
Alongside a series of photos from the festive season, the cookbook author shared a snap of her lying on the floor with her trousers unbuttoned.
One follower commented: “You have no idea how much I relate to the last pic of all of the potatoes & zero regrets.”
