Jessie James Decker is clapping back at trolls who accused her of Photoshopping abs onto her young kids’ bodies.
The “Dancing With The Stars” alum, 34, shared a happy snap of Vivianne, 8, Eric Jr., 7, and Forrest, 4 – whom she shares with husband Eric Decker – enjoying a Thanksgiving getaway in Mexico.
“Vacation Decker style💪🥥🌴,” she captioned the Instagram post of the kids in their swimwear.
While thousands of people jumped into the comments section to applaud Jessie’s children for their “ripped” bodies, a few critics called their physiques “strange,” with many suggesting the country star heavily edited the pics.
“From one mother to another. Please don’t call my children’s appearance strange just because they don’t look the way you think they should? It’s unkind ❤️,” Jessie responded to one person.
“It’s a sad world we live in today when having healthy fit kids who are super active, play sports [and] build muscle naturally is ‘weird,’” she wrote in response to another commenter.
The trio were all smiles in pics and videos from their Mexico getaway.

When a third person chimed in on their appearance, the Kittenish founder sarcastically clapped back, “Yeah I used an ‘ab’ app on my small children wtf.”
The proud mom credited her daughter’s six pack to her passion for gymnastics.
“She loves it and puts her heart into it,” the “Just Jessie” author explained.
Meanwhile, Jessie’s former ”DWTS” co-star Selma Blair pointed out how the kids looked like they were having a lot of “fun.”
She added, “I love these smiles. The strength. So in their bodies. Fun goals.”
“How do they all have better bodies than me?????” Jessie’s former dance partner Alan Bersten joked, while Kelly Rowland wrote, “These abs on these babies, tho!!! I gotta step my game up! Lol.”
The new post came just a few weeks after Jessie spoke to Page Six about reuniting with her kids following her elimination from the dance competition series.
“Obviously it was a disappointment because I wanted to keep trucking along, but everything’s meant to be,” she told us after the Michael Bublé-themed episode where she was sent home.
“I’ve been struggling with [the competition], and this past week, Alan knows, this was just heavy on my heart. I couldn’t help it, but the first thing that popped in my mind was, ‘Well, the silver lining is I get to be home for trick or treating.’ That was something that was very important to my kids.”
She also said that fans might see her NFL star hubby, 35, hit the dance floor one day.
“Eric’s a really good dancer,” she said. “He takes direction well, he’s very competitive and I can see him doing it. I think he’d be good.”
