Earlier, Canadian reporter, Leslie Horton, was body-shamed and trolled live on television with comments such as: "Congratulations on your pregnancy."

"If you’re gonna wear old bus driver pants then you have to expect emails like this."

A video showed her responding to the troll. "So, thanks for that. Um, no, I’m not pregnant. I actually lost my uterus to cancer last year. And um, this is what women of my age look like. So, if it is offensive to you, that is unfortunate. Think about the emails you send," she said.
