Ashley Benson<\/strong> <\/a>did not use Ozempic to shed pounds, the former Pretty Little Liars<\/em><\/a> star, 34, confirmed in a new statement. A social media commenter presumed she had used the semaglutide to lose weight after welcoming her baby girl, and Ashley responded via her Instagram Stories on Monday, June 17. Earlier that day, the online user commented underneath Ashley\u2019s Instagram<\/a> post with a GIF of the Ozempic injection.<\/p>\n \u201cI know a lot of people taking Ozempic and it\u2019s totally fine. To each their own,\u201d she wrote across a screenshot of the comment under her recent Instagram post. \u201cBut don\u2019t discredit people who also work very hard to get their body back like I\u2019ve done with mine. Getting back to work forced me to focus on my health and working out and I wanted to feel confident and good about myself.\u201d<\/p>\n Ashley isn\u2019t the only celebrity who\u2019s been accused of using the weight loss drug, which is commonly given to patients living with type 2 diabetes. Over the past year, multiple stars have addressed whether or not they\u2019ve used Ozempic to shed pounds.<\/p>\n Ashley welcomed her daughter in February with Brandon Davis<\/strong><\/a>. This is the couple\u2019s first child<\/a> together, and the Spring Breakers<\/em> actress has shared a few snapshots of their baby girl to her Instagram account. In honor of Mother\u2019s Day, Ashley posted photos of her cradling her baby in the hospital.<\/p>\n \u201cBeing your mom is the best gift of all,\u201d she captioned a carousel post in May.<\/p>\n Earlier this month, Ashley gave her followers a small glimpse at her daughter in a Father\u2019s Day tribute to Brandon. However, she covered her baby\u2019s face with a flower emoji for privacy.<\/p>\n \u201cHappy first Father\u2019s Day my love,\u201d Ashley wrote in her caption. \u201cFrom the moment I was pregnant, you never left my side. Came to every single appointment because you knew how scared I was. You showed up for me every time, and I knew you were going to do the same for our daughter and be the best daddy to her. We are so lucky to have you and we love you so much. She has the best daddy in the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n<\/blockquote>\n
