Eruption Tai rumesbak sa mga  tumatawag na ‘yobab’ sa asawa

GRABE ang natatanggap na mga hate message at body shaming comments ng asawa ng dancer at content creator na si Eric “Eruption” Tai.

Inookray ng mga netizens ang plus size na katawan ni Rona Tai kasabay ng paghikayat dito na sabayan ang asawang si Eruption sa pagdyi-gym at pagwo-workout nito.

Sa kanyang Facebook page, niresbakan ng dating mainstay ng “It’s Showtime” ang mga body shamers kalakip ang mga litrato at video nila ni Rona na kuha sa kanilang weight-loss journey.

Dito, ibinandera ni Eruption ang kanyang pagiging proud husband kay Rona dahil sa tapang nito matapos sumailalim sa “sports surgeries, multiple miscarriages, and life-threatening childbirth.”

Sa simula ng kanyang caption, ibinahagi ni Eruption ang ilang comments ng bashers sa asawa tulad ng, “Ang taba mo na”, “Yan pala misis niya, parang yobab?” at “Isama mo sa gym ang asawa mo.”

Panunupalpal naman ng content creator sa mga haters, “Bago ka manghusga sa katawan ng isang tao, lalo na kapag mataba sila o nagbago ang itsura nila… tanungin mo muna sarili mo: alam mo ba ang buong kwento nila?

“This is my wife, Rona. 

“What they don’t see is that she’s  had 4 knee surgeries due to a snow boarding accident and the docs said she’ll never be able to run again. 

“She’s been through two miscarriages one year after the other. She carried life inside her twice and only to feel that life slip away. 

“We lost not just pregnancies, we lost hopes, dreams, and parts of ourselves. It was a huge struggle for us together mentally, physically and emotionally back then because the doctors informed us that she will never get pregnant again due to losing both fallopian tubes and an ovary,” ani Eruption.

Inalala rin niya ang pagsilang ng anak nilang si Legend noong 2019 na nabuo sa pamamagitan ng IVF o In-Vitro Fertilization. 

“Fast forward 4 years, a revelation occurred. Our awesome son Legend arrived. He was a one-shot IVF miracle baby. We really had only one chance, one shot and one answered prayer. But even then, it wasn’t easy. During childbirth, Rona almost died due to some unforeseen complications. 

“I almost lost my wife on the very day we became parents and that kind of trauma doesn’t just go away. We were so blessed indeed despite everything that has happened, God speed. 

“So people expect her to ‘bounce back.’ But how do you bounce back from near death? From two devastating losses before that?

“From postpartum pain, PTSD, hormonal imbalance, anxiety and depression?

“And on top of it all… We lost our three dogs, Lilo, Tyger, and Nalah, our family, our fur babies, one after the other. Year after year since 2022-2024. All passed by the ages 10 to 11 yrs and that kind of grief stays with you.

“So yes, her body changed.

“Because her life changed.

“Because her heart broke again and again, while she kept showing up, surviving, loving, and mothering. Hindi siya tamad. Hindi siya pabaya. She was surviving,” rebelasyon pa ni Eruption.

Paalala naman niya sa lahat, lalo na sa mga taong madaling manghusga at manlait, “You may see extra weight, but I see extraordinary strength. And now that she’s healing, slowly finding herself again… People begin to say, ‘Wow, you look great now!’

“And fact check: with our yearly doctors check up results, Rona has a healthier heart and blood works than me! 

“So let me say this, before you comment on someone’s body, remember: their story might be heavier than their weight!

“Behind every body is a journey.

“Behind every scar is a survival.

“Behind my wife’s strength is a woman who’s lost more than most… and still kept going. 

“Remember for some, it may take weeks, months or years for them to bounce back. And as husbands, family and friends, we have to be more understanding, supportive and patient. Not just say it, show it and eventually their time will come. Have Faith. 

“So let’s be kinder. Let’s be more considerate of others. Let’s stop judging what we don’t understand and choose to see beyond what’s visible.

“Because true beauty and love is not just how someone looks, it’s what they’ve overcome!!” mensahe pa ni Eruption.
