Maria Thattil has once again become the target of vicious homophobia.
The former Miss Universe Australia, 31, has received nasty messages since she started dating AFWL star Moana Hope, saying a hateful troll threatened to physically attack her for being in a same-sex relationship.
“I had someone comment on a video of my partner and me, saying I needed to be physically attacked to beat the gay out of me,” Maria revealed on her It’s All Her podcast.
“I haven’t talked about it, but it’s like you have to be defeated to get back to your standard. For example, these are the messages that people think are good to send me.’
Maria went on to say, “All you can do is laugh because there are people who think like that,” despite how scary it is.
