Willis has opened up about her body image struggles in the past.
In 2021, she shared an Instagram post about her experience with body dysmorphic disorder and said, "I punished myself for not looking like my mom."
She opened up about things that have that have helped her when she is in a "BDD spiral," which include going for walks, listening to music and taking a break from social media.
Willis also urged others to "be mindful of the special and impressionable minds around you," including those with access to social media, as well as "potential triggering imagery or the indicators that hyper-focusing on ones appearance goes deeper than just wanting to feel good in their own skin."
"Do not feel ashamed," she added in her message at the time, addressing others experiencing body dysmorphic disorder. "This is not a 'stupid, vain issue' this is a genuine psychological pain and I see you so clearly and witness the validity in your struggle."
