Proud of my flaws, says Hilary DuffLos Angeles, Aug 6 (AZINS) Actress Hilary Duff has lashed out at critics and said she does have flaws in her body but she is still proud of her body.

Duff was trolled by people on her bikini body during a Hawaii holiday.

She took to Instagram on Friday to share a photograph of herself in swimsuit carrying her five-year-old son Luca, reports aceshowbiz.com.

"I am posting this on behalf of young girls, women and mothers of all ages. I'm enjoying a vacation with my son after a long season of shooting and being away from him for weeks. Since websites and magazines love to share 'celeb flaws' -- well I have them," Duff wrote alongside the image which shows her backside.

"My body has given me the greatest gift of my life: Luca, five years ago. I'm turning 30 in September and my body is healthy and gets me where I need to go.

"Ladies, lets be proud of what we've got and stop wasting precious time in the day wishing we were different, better and un-flawed. You guys (you know who you are!) already know how to ruin a good time, and now you are body shamers as well," she added.
