Madelaine Petsch Hits The Deck In A Barely-There Bikini
Madelaine Petsch continues to prove that effortless moments can still stop the scroll. The "Riverdale" star has been lighting up social media feeds for years, and a recently resurfaced photo shared by a fan account is reminding social media users exactly why Petsch has such a strong following. In the fan-shared snap, Petsch is seen lounging across a wooden deck while soaking up the sun in a sleek black bikini.

Madelaine Petsch Lets The Sun Do The Talking In Laid-Back Bikini Snap
Her ease in the moment reflects a confidence that’s been built over time, one she’s spoken candidly about developing through both personal growth and public scrutiny. “I’ve been lucky and haven’t had too many issues with body image, but when I was younger there were definitely times when I had some body dysmorphia,” Petsch admitted in years past. “I think a lot of young girls go through that but don’t quite understand it.”
She’s also been open about how fame intensified those feelings early on in her career. “And when 'Riverdale' first came out, there would be these crazy people, fans who called me a whale,” she shared. “And to be honest, there were times when I would question myself, like why do people hate me?”
Ultimately, Petsch said she learned to reframe the noise. “You have to take a step back and realize that all that matters is feeling good about yourself, knowing that you’re a good person, loving, and taking care of yourself," the actress admitted.
