‘I hope Santa left you an ice pack for Christmas this year,’ another commented as a third said: ‘It’s not an ideal Christmas without a minor outdoor injury.’
The post comes after Megan recently revealed the reason why she decided to become a Playboy model.
The former Bachelor star told Fox News, creating content for Playboy helped her cope after she was diagnosed with a rare degenerative neurological disease called Spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA6).
Megan, who shot to fame on Ritchie Strahan’s season of The Bachelor in 2016, admitted it’s been ‘a stressful period of time,’ but modelling has given her something to look forward to.
‘My confidence has been quite low trying to figure out your place in the world,’ she said.
‘I’m young and healthy, and I’m confident now but eventually, that’s not always going to be there for me. I just want to embrace life right now and part of having freedom and enjoying your body is making money.’
Many fans expressed their concern, with one writing: ‘Merry Christmas!! But damn how did you get the black eye?’
Megan shared her heartbreaking diagnosis in an Instagram post back in January, while assuring fans she’s remaining optimistic.
Spinocerebellar ataxia type 6 (SCA6) is a neurological condition characterised by late onset, slowly progressive problems with movement.
Symptoms of SCA6 can include struggling with coordination, stumbling, imbalance and in some cases, slurred speech.
The rare disorder, which affects 1 in 100,000, is not curable and there is no specific treatment to delay or halt its progression.
However, there are various therapies that can help to manage symptoms.
