BUCHAREST, ROMANIA: Tristan Tate took to X to criticize the New York Post's claim that 'Baywatch' icon Yasmine Bleeth appeared "unrecognizable" at 55.

For example, Tate's defense of his brother, Andrew, and his comments regarding 'Britain's Got Talent' judge Amanda Holden confidently donning a bikini in her 50s was met with strong criticism from Holden's fan base.

In a recent post X, Tate shared the article from New York Post and began his statement by acknowledging that, irrespective of any jests or criticisms, Bleeth was a 55-year-old woman who continues to lead a vibrant life, smiling and walking.

His personal experience as a former addict led him to commend her for overcoming her challenges and not doing poorly.

Drawing attention to what he saw as a double standard, he criticized The New York Post for previously attacking his brother over a remark about gender and driving skills.

Tate wrote, "Nah all jokes aside this lady is 55. She’s smiling, walking, as a former addict she isn’t doing badly."

He added, "She’s not supposed to be smoking hot at 55. For a 'news outlet' that attacked my brother for misogyny for saying men drive better this is hypocritical. Poor form @nypost."



 

In a separate tweet, Tate expressed his intention to respond to one person in his "other" direct message (DM) inbox, extending his well-wishes to them and wishing them good luck.

Tate wrote, "I’m going to respond to 1 person in my “other” DM inbox tonight. Good luck."
