Do some research. Her metabolism was ruined by WW2 starvation. Her second husband was a psychiatrist who specialized in eating disorders and said she did not have one.

Get the fact before you speak.

Yes she was malnourished but still training to be a ballerina so of course she's teeny tiny!!!

@racourdav yes she is very thin, it's almost shocking. But Audery Hepburn grew up during WWII and she was malnourished. She was thin her entire life. Her ballet teacher even told her she would never be a prima ballerina because of her slight frame (ironic, since nowadays ballerinas are so tiny! But that wasn't the style in the 40s/50s).

And THAT is how you make an acceptance speech!

What r YOU talking about???? Some of you kill me...was she a relative of yours? Personal friend? NO! I offered up MY opinion and I stand behind what I wrote, IMO she had an eating disorder. WTF cares if she did or didn't? I just happen to think she, like thousands of others in that community---had one.It took away nothing from her grace and the fact that she came across to ME as a decent human being...STFU and chill the eff out....
