Katharine McPhee's bikini photos are fighting back at the "haters" after causing an uproar online.
On Monday, McPhee's husband, David Foster, 72, posted a photo of the actress wearing a black two-piece suit as she wandered around a patch of grass.
After some social media users disputed Foster's comments about her wife's post-pregnancy body, she shared another photo of herself in a swimsuit on her own Instagram and offered some strong wording to those who criticized her husband.
"I'm sorry, but we're not sorry. This could help for all those who can't handle it," McPhee wrote in a long headline. "I struggled with weight throughout my 20s and 30s. I've moved up and down 10 times. Does that make you feel better? There's nothing wrong with that – most people do.

McPhee, 37, added that she reached her postpartum weight without dieting.
"I lost the weight of this baby without dieting. zero. Dieting is the worst, and the pressure on me by anyone is zero. I let my body do its thing and found a good workout. That's it. You know what? I will probably gain weight again at some point as well. Who cares? She continued.
"But people are terrified of my husband's headlines and take life seriously ... Don't be so offended by content posted by people who have zero impact on your life and move on. Maybe you should have more of an attitude and let's say...'Oh well, he thinks his wife is hot.' I can't adapt to this overly sensitive society right now. But as Taylor Swift said, haters hate byyeeee," McPhee's post concluded.

McPhee previously spoke openly about becoming one in an interview with "Becoming One."
"It feels natural," the singer/actress told the media. "I have a very nice kid; he's been fine. I love it! ”
She also revealed that she never felt any "crazy pressure" to restore her pre-pregnancy body.
"I thought I was going to have this stress [bounce], but I'm very grateful and happy because I have a healthy child and I feel really good emotionally and physically," McPhee explains. "I'm glad I haven't had this crazy pressure to fit into any of the jeans in my closet."

The two first met in 2005 when McPhee was an American Idol contestant. Foster and McPhee formed a friendship and maintained a friendship.
Three years after breaking up with ex-husband Nick Cocas in 2014, McPhee was found having dinner with Foster. The two insisted they were close friends, but confirmed they were an item from the 2018 Met Gala.
McPhee announced that the two were engaged in July 2018 and married in 2019.
