Now Daisy Ridley has shown she won't put up with body-shamers. Daisy had posted this meme on her Instagram page, which criticises her body image.

The meme included a speech bubble next to an image of her in character as Rey, stating: "I can't believe the unrealistic expectations I'm setting for young girls. Who cast me anyway? Don't they know real women have curves?"

Daisy responded with the caption: "'Real women' are all shapes and sizes, all ethnicities, all levels of brave, have families, don't have families. I am a 'real woman' like every other woman in this world."

She has since deleted the picture, after seeming to realise she had included the name of the original Instagram user.
