‘Baywatch’ alum Donna D’Errico on being told she's 'too old' to rock a bikini: ‘Good Lord just wear it’

Donna D’Errico believes you’re never "too old to wear a bikini." The "Baywatch" alum recently took to her Instagram page and shared a snapshot of herself rocking a pink string bikini after critics claimed she is "desperate" for modeling a two-piece on social media.

The model told Fox News Digital exclusively she hopes her photos will encourage other women to celebrate their bodies – no matter their age. "Once upon a time I used to allow what others thought of me to really bother me and even dictate my actions," the 54-year-old explained. "And those ‘others’ I speak of were almost exclusively other women.

Strangers in public or haters online, so many women just seem to love tearing other women down. It affected me pretty badly over time.

No matter how great I felt about how I looked when I left the house, if I got photographed while out I’d be absolutely torn to shreds by mostly women making fun of everything about me in online comments." Donna D'Errico told Fox News Digital she is not going to let trolls on social media stop her from celebrating her body.
