Selena Gomez’s ex-boyfriend Taylor Lautner defended her against body-shaming critics after several commented on her figure at the 2025 SAG Awards.

On Wednesday, the “Twilight” actor utilized his Instagram Stories to repost comparison images of Gomez from the 2024 and 2025 awards shows that had gone viral, as some critics were asserting that she had lost weight over the previous year.

He stated, “The world can be a harsh place full of negativity. You can’t please everyone, and there’s no need to try. From my own encounters, the hurtful words don’t hurt any less, they simply guide you back to what’s truly important.”

“And that certainly doesn’t surround the form, hue, or look of your body. A daily reminder for all of us to remember our internal and external beauty… and to exhibit a bit more kindness,” the 33-year-old Lautner finished.

Reps for Gomez, 32, weren’t immediately available to Page Six for comment.

The actors briefly dated in 2009 while filming “Ramona and Beezus” and “Twilight: New Moon” in Canada, respectively.

Gomez stepped out in a blue off-the-shoulder dress for Sunday’s awards show and fans quickly hopped onto social media to claim the actress appeared slimmer.

“ozempic and plastic surgery are saving her career,” one person wrote on X, as another chimed in, “She must be on the ozempic bandwagon.”

Aside from Lautner, Whoopi Goldberg and Sunny Hostin rushed to the “Only Murders in the Building” star’s defense during Tuesday’s episode of “The View.”

Hostin called out the haters discussing Gomez’s body, saying she could’ve “lost this weight” because of her battle with lupus.

Goldberg agreed that it was “nobody’s business” to comment on the pop star’s figure.

The “Lose You to Love Me” songstress has previously touched on how her lupus treatment has led to her weight fluctuation.

“When I’m taking [the medicine], I tend to hold a lot of water weight, and that happens very normally,” she said on TikTok in 2023.

“And then when I’m off of it, I tend to kind of lose weight.”

Lupus is an autoimmune disease when the body’s immune system attacks its tissues and organs, according to the Mayo Clinic.
