She received death threats?!? People are insane. Humanity needs a reboot. Stat.

[WordOfLife]

I think the hate is coming from envy mostly from those stuck in unhappy relationships with kids they can’t afford and perhaps even wish they never had…especially with the person they are with!! There is not one happy person who would be bothered about this woman’s lifestyle! Happy people enjoy seeing others happy!!

Support to you girl. I'm 69 and traveling right now in Milan alone to celebrate my 70th birthday in Italy. I'm single, no children and have had a great life doing exactly what I want to do which is travel and enjoy life. This life is not for everyone but some of us thrive with this lifestyle.

Death threats and being investigated by authorities just because people are jealous beyond comprehension! The hate for women, happy women, free women is absolutely insane!

[Harley_Vampy_Sis_Quinn]

I'm a mom, and if they want to be single and without kids..then kudos to them. Their happiness is what matters in their life, not any judgement from other people. We are not meant to be what everyone else expects of us. If we live like everyone else wants, then we wouldn't be living life at all.

[karasays]

How can anyone be offended by a woman being single and childfree? Seems like jealousy to me.

[lorrilewis]

Death threats should result in automatic prison time.

As an attorney, I've done enough wills and estate planning to know that who you choose as a spouse and parent of your children is by far the most important decision you'll make in this lifetime. And the stakes are high if you make poor choices. The problem is people want the life they want immediately, and their sense of urgency leads them to make rushed decisions that are not in their best interest. I'm not saying wait until 70 to settle down. But TAKE. YOUR TIME.

[reneemathis]

Wow, people are pathetic! Let this woman live her life her way!!

[Keisha-sziy]

I'm glad that Tamron is highlighting this issue. There are people who become extremely violent when they see a woman just enjoying her life. They want women to live an imprisoned miserable life.

[lorrilewis]

Can you imagine a single man posting the same and getting ... DEATH THREATS?

[Serenti]

The shaming and targeting is intended to cause distress and take away her peace. They see she is happy, in her autonomy and (some) viewers have taken it upon themselves to try and take that away from her. It's a real mirror to what society including women, will do to other women. We are socialised from birth to follow societal and cultural 'norms' this is what can happen if you choose your own path. Go, Emily!

[Choucoune]

I'm 39 with no kids. Just walk away from a toxic relationship. I will post how I enjoy life when I'll have some money as for now I have hardships. People can say whatever they want, I don't care.

[meagain]

Why are people so desperate for single and/or childless women to be miserable??? 😖. I wish she didn’t apologize or clarify anything. Married women don’t apologize for posting their flowers or date night. Mothers don’t apologize for posting their kids. They don’t have to be sensitive to others feelings about their lives. But single women have to make sure we don’t trigger married women or mothers 🤔. If being married or being a mother is so amazing and the be all end all to happiness, why are they the ones who can’t handle seeing the grass on the other side…..

[willieleecooper]

Enjoy your life, this is not a dress rehearsal. There is no do overs.

[marjoriecoleman]

People are soo mean and miserable, smh. They’re jealous because they have all these kids and can’t enjoy their own lives, it’s a shame. Live your life girl, have fun on all your amazing travels and don’t worry about the haters. ❤

[SweettoothMarie]

What this teaches me is to enjoy my single season! 😜

[marthaoschwald]

Tamron, your outfit is fire! Love it! I'm an American living in Costa Rica and have never gotten so much hate for being a single woman with no kids in my life at age 39. It's absolutely disgusting how much people try to suffocate happy independent women out of their own misery. Keep thriving!

[Amethyst]

Men (mostly) react this way bc she is showing other women (and women are resources to men) that we can be happy without being in relationships with them.

As a woman who spent most of her 30s single and childless I can 1000% say this is jealousy and projection. I'm now 39 and got married this year and expecting a baby. Prior to all of this, I lived all over the world and travelled very often...the comments I would get from the people around me that chose to start all that in their late 20s seethed of envy and judgement, except for the good honest friends who openly said what they would give to have waited a little but the societal pressure is real and I never let the fake shaming pity of "oh you're single? you'll find someone" stop my joy of living live! My husband and baby are getting the best version of myself now that I feel like I lived so much and such fulfilling things outside of them, and the adventures will not stop for me, now it will just be an "us".
