Recently, 44-year-old Hewitt spoke openly about the hate she receives on social media.
When she was a guest on the podcast Inside of You, she said that she shared a photo of herself with a filter on Instagram - just because she didn't have time to put on makeup that day - and received harsh criticism for it.
"Aging in Hollywood is really hard," she told podcast host Michael Rosenbaum. Unrecognizable, so she puts on filters because she doesn't want us to know how bad she actually looks now in her 40s.''
In response to the criticism, she shared another photo, this time with excessive filters and wrote in an attempt to laugh at it: "Everything is natural, without a filter."
This post, which has since been deleted, was also disliked by her followers: "Then I realized that no matter what I do, it's impossible to get along with them. Fans tend to imagine you a certain way forever or as Taylor Swift once said: 'People freeze you,' which makes it difficult Celebrities change or age."
When asked why she cares so much about people's reactions, she replied: "Because pretending we don't care, would be a lie. Sometimes you have to care about what people think of you."
