“It’s just weird because usually her work is more subtle,” one user posted. “She’s clearly had something done between her brows.”

Some comments were harsher, bordering on judgmental, with one person writing: “Bad, bad Botox. You’d think she, of all people, could afford better.”

Still, among the critiques were gentler observations — and reminders that what we see online is often a fraction of a fuller reality. Some noted that she looked “tired,” while others expressed concern that “her eyes aren’t smiling.” A few commenters linked her expression to the physical and emotional demands of recovery, especially amid ongoing public scrutiny.

Amid the speculation, supportive voices pushed back. “I love the happiness on her face — a true gardener,” one admirer commented. Another wrote simply: “What a beautiful woman.”
