Bobbi Althoff sets the record straight.
The 27-year-old influencer took to TikTok to respond to critics of her looks. In the clip, shared on Tuesday, August 27, Althoff claims she only had filler in her upper lip and explains that her face looks different because of the weight gain. “I’m so tired of all the comments from people saying, ‘she ruined her face’ and ‘no he can’t even move his face it’s so frozen, there’s so much filler.’ Let me get this straightened out real quick,” she says to the camera as she sits in her car. “The only thing I’ve done to my face is I have a little filler in my upper lip, okay? That’s it. I don’t have cheek filler, but you think I do because I’ve put on a lot of weight.”
Althoff goes on to explain, “That’s because a year ago I was breastfeeding full time and when I stopped I gained about 20 pounds. And a lot of that weight went on my face.”
The Really good podcast The presenter went on to say that the “bigger problem” is that people felt the need to comment on her appearance at all.

Althoff later adds, “I try not to care too much about the negative comments, but it’s like, can a girl get a little fat on her face without you saying, ‘She’s got cheek rubber?’ And can a girl be insecure about her upper lip?” and get some fucking lip filler without you commenting on it, we all know I did it, we can all see it.”
The influencer, who rose to fame in 2023 for her intentionally awkward podcast interviews with celebrities like Drake, Lil Yachty and Mark Cuban, began posting TikToks in 2021.
At the time, her content focused on her experiences with pregnancy and motherhood. Althoff has two daughters, Isla, 2, and Luca, 4, with her ex-husband Cory Althoff (the couple married in 2020 and filed for divorce in February 2024).

While she previously posted about her children, Althoff later made the decision to keep them off the internet.
“I feel like it started for a lot of reasons. One was that when you post your kids online, people are going to make a lot of opinions about your kids,” the influencer told PEOPLE in April 2024. “I didn’t like that. But also, I didn’t want to create my kids’ Google search history myself. That’s crazy.”
“I want them to have their own blank slate to kind of create something of their own,” she added. “It’s really nice that they’re not online because no one recognizes them. If my kids are in the park, without me, no one will recognize them. They’re fine. And I feel safe because of that.”
