Later, the girl said that on Twitter she was constantly criticized for her natural appearance: hair, skin color and weight. Former model contestant Winnie Harlow even compared the girl's head to a cauliflower.
In 2016 , in an emotional interview with Teen Vogue magazine , Toth confessed: "I received quite a lot of blows for a 17-year-old girl, and it was difficult for me to understand why."
Then she found a mentor in Top Model judge Charlotte Dawson, who was also bullied on social networks. In 2014, Dawson committed suicide, but her advice supports Him to this day. "After the show ended, that was my driving force."
She disappeared from the public field for two years, and now she has returned again, moved from Australia to New York and continued her modeling career.
In an interview , Toth also said: "Absolutely everyone influenced me. When I started listening to my own voice, everything fell into place. People will always say bad things about you, but their opinion does not define your personality."
Ducky Toth has 300 thousand followers on Instagram. When subscribers suggested that the girl release a personalized doll, she supported this idea and even wrote a corresponding tweet mentioning the Barbie brand.
