April 2024 · 2 minute read

A popular Australian parenting blogger as taken aim at “trolls” who have scrutinised pictures of his wife that were posted on Facebook.

In a post that has attracted more than 20,000 reactions, Brad Kearns, the inspirational dad behind the DaDMuM team, which has 323,000 followers, branded the bullying of wife Sarah, aka Mrs DaDMuM, “disgusting” and said it had to end.

He revealed the bullies had even gone so far as using the couple’s photographs as their own profile images, all while criticising his wife’s body.

Speaking to news.com.au, wife Sarah said when it comes to dealing with the bullies: “I try and remember that if I wouldn’t ask for their advice, then I shouldn't let their negative opinions bother me.”

The courageous Facebook post by Brad read: “Something I will never understand is when a group of nasty trolls decide to get together and poke fun at the body of a woman.

“Call me a midget. Say my teeth are bad. That I look 10 years older than I am. I honestly don’t care. I’ll still head down the beach and dance past your sorry ass in my budgie smugglers.

“But to subscribe to a group. To use our photographs as your own profile images and to go to the daily effort of scrutinising the body of a mum is absolutely disgusting.

“The woman y’all are teasing is the most fulfilled person in the world. She is happy. She is surrounded be amazing friends and family and she does her absolute best for others.

“She’s so f***ing classy she would never even acknowledge it. But I refuse to let that go unnoticed.

“You are revolting. You are vile. You are faceless and you are gutless. You aren’t half the person my wife is. And I know that because not a single one of you would dare reveal yourself and fall on your sword.

“The only person she needs to impress is herself. Not you. Not me. Not anyone.

“This is my beautiful wife. Look at her smile.”

The comments section on their Facebook page spilled over with support, and Sarah said: “When they go low, we go high.

“I wouldn’t trade places with any of them – no matter what I look like. To be so miserable as to subscribe to a forum to hate and judge others so viciously and watch them so obsessively – they must live very, very sad lives.

“Happy people don’t do that. I hope they find some happiness.”
