Instagram is usually the place to go when you want to show off the best and “prettied-up” parts of your life. Chyler Leigh took a different approach when she shared an emotional post on Instagram back in April 2020. The picture and accompanying caption unveiled why the actor hated modeling early in her career.
In the photo, we see a younger Leigh, age 12 or 13, grinning heartily at the camera as she poses amidst a tree’s limbs. “It’s little me!” Leigh’s caption began. “This picture was part of a modeling composite that I had to hand over whenever I went on a casting call for a print ad.” Leigh’s post then took a sad turn as she shed light on the story behind the photo. She wrote: “I’ll be honest, I hated modeling. I hated anything that brought attention to myself because I didn’t feel worthy of the attention. I didn’t like people seeing me. I didn’t feel worthy of anything.”
Leigh’s reason for sharing this specific photo from her past had us emotional. According to her post, this was one of the few “rare moments” when she felt happy with who she was and where she was.
