Bunnie Xo spent this Thanksgiving giving back to a community of women and children affected by domestic violence.
As she did so, she opened up about her own story with suffering partner abuse from a period of years between 2013 and 2016. The Dumb Blonde podcaster and social media personality also shared a photo of herself with a black eye, taken during this relationship.
In an interview with Extra , Bunnie explained that she hopes women going through domestic violence now will see that photo, and know that they're not alone.
"I shared that photo in hopes that women could see, 'Okay, she's been where I'm at and she gets it,'" she explains.
"I want somebody that I can relate to, and I hope these women know that I have been exactly where they are, and I just wanna lift them up,"
