Y&R Star Susan Walters Bullied By Trolls Over Her Looks
Susan Walters says that some of The Young and the Restless fans out there seem to be focusing more on her looks than her acting. But that’s certainly not going to stop her from doing her job.
Speaking to TVNewsCheck in a new interview, Susan admitted that it hasn’t been easy reading all of the commentaries that some of her critics have left about her on social media. A lot of critics commented about her age. Susan Walters said that it was also shocking to read what some people had to say about her looks.
Susan said that the last time she was on The Young and the Restless, social media was not around. She said, “So I made the mistake of going on Twitter after I came back to the show. It will be very empowering for people to see that I’ve aged. It wasn’t pretty at all.”
Susan Walters Regrets Reading Comments On Twitter
The actress continued, “I was blown away by how nasty people were about the way me, Susan, looked. And now that the character of Diane has taken off and they’ve been reintroduced to Diane, now comments would be about Diane if I was still looking at Twitter. Which of course, I never do. It’s not healthy for me.”
Susan Walters went on to say that she tries to not think about the negativity she sees online. She explained that her primary focus is to make sure that she portrays her character to the best of her ability. The actress also doesn’t want to lose any sleep over what her trolls have to say about her looks. At the end of the day, it shouldn’t really matter.
She added, “Constantly worrying doesn’t serve me as an actor at all. Especially if people are discussing negative things about the way they think you look. That doesn’t do me any good.”

Social media is a perfect platform for mean-spirited people to show who they really are.
I still think she is very attractive and has not changed much. Most of the people that criticize her is because of the role she plays. Instead of saying she plays her role very well, they find something to criticize. The reason they criticize her is because they don’t look half as good as her. We deal with people like this every day.
It’s just the hatred of some people who have nothing better to do. They post remarks about characters’ looks because they can’t separate fiction from reality. I’ve seen awful things said about Courtney Hope, Michelle Stafford and Eric Braeden too. The folks making the rude and ignorant comments are probably on a laptop somewhere stuffing down Pepsis and Little Debbie cakes 24/7. Susan Walters is beautiful. I wish I looked like her.
Susan would look great with all blonde hair and spring colors for clothing and peach lipstick.
