Egypt Sherrod, the star of "Property Virgins," has openly addressed rumors and body shaming comments regarding her body and potential plastic surgery. Sherrod gave birth to daughter Harper Skye, who turned 3 in February 2019.
In response to the speculation, Sherrod took to social media to express her views on body image and postpartum changes.
"I am just gonna let this sit right here for a minute because I have absolutely NO SHAME about my body."
Addressing Body Shaming
"Body shaming is something we should never do, especially when you have no idea what you're talking about," she wrote.
Sherrod continued, "When you have a baby over 40 it hits different. You don't just snap back. Especially because I couldnāt breast feed since the docs had to dry me out due to fluid in my lungs."

In February 2019, Sherrod told PEOPLE that she was put on "a heart-healthy cardio diet" following her second daughter's complicated birth. "My body was holding all the fluid to the point where I got edema ⦠but then it had also gotten into my lungs," she explains.
She firmly stated, "So YES I am dragging a continent behind me. And it is what it is⦠Deal with it!"
Clarifying Plastic Surgery Rumors
Sherrod also clarified rumors about plastic surgery, specifically regarding breast implants. She stated, "And NO I did not get implants.. I actually got a reduction."
āBut the damn things grew back after Harper," Sherrod continued. "And YES one day I may get a mommy makeover. But IF I do, it is my decision and I will NOT be shamed over it."
Sherrod concluded her post with a series of hashtags, including ā#DealWithIt," "#CurvesInAllTheRightPlaces" and "#ThickWomenCount.ā

Support from Husband Mike Jackson
Sherrod's husband, Mike Jackson, also defended her against the body shaming comments. He shared a summary of his thoughts on the matter in a short list.
"What I was trying to get across on our ig live," Jackson said, "is that:
- my wife has always had a healthy rear end
- No she hasn't (had) work
- What other people have to say don't matter
- Yes I love every inch, circumference, slope etc of it
- She's super sexy
- In my opinion, Asking if someone with a natural body has had some work done is compliment, because you like what you see!
Jackson added, āIāll never respond to folks again, because I never pay attention to negative nonsense.ā
Balancing Career and Family
At the end of December last year, Sherrod reflected on how much her family had grown, penning a sweet message in the caption about balancing motherhood with the rest of her life. True SUCCESS for me has been in finding balance.ā

āTrust me, running my real estate business, tv career and family in a way where my family and career goals are fulfilled has been a juggling act," Sherrod added.
The television and radio personality recalled years where she felt like all she did was work but ended up discovering she ultimately lacked ālove or fulfillment at home.ā
āThatās when I realized it couldnāt be all grind, and I had to balance my priorities,ā she explained. āHaving a family was definitely one of them. Hang in there mommas!! You can indeed have it all, but it will be a constant recalibration of priorities. You may have to allow a few work opportunities to pass for a while, but theyāll be there when u are ready to grind again. For now, be there for the small family moments and the big ones.ā
