Bella Hadid "conserves" herself on social media now.
The 21-year-old model used to really "over-share" on her Instagram account but has toned that back as she wants to "protect" herself and her heart.
She said: "I used to be a really big over-sharer. I learned that protecting myself and my heart is more important to me right now. I feel like at this point you sometimes start to believe the things that people say to you, whether it's good or bad, but I like to share things that mean a lot to me. I think to be able to conserve my own self, I need to be able to take a step back and keep my centre and keep my privacy."
And Bella tries not to respond to nasty comments on the site but finds it difficult to resist at times.
She told People magazine: "I usually never respond to anybody and I think that night I just really had had it. At the end of the day I don't want to mean, and I don't want to 'clap back'. We're all just human beings and it wasn't even about what they said about our faces, it was just that - don't attack my personality because you don't know me. That's what deeply hurts me."
Meanwhile, Bella previously admitted she struggles to sleep at night because she fears her modelling career will come to an end.
She said: "I want to enjoy the ride because you never know where the end is. That's what really freaks me out and worries me at night when I'm going to sleep. But then when I go to sleep every night I think I'm so grateful and lucky but even though it gets really hard. I am so blessed but I do worry that it could all come to an end."
