LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: ‘Baywatch’ star Erika Eleniak, who featured in the iconic '90s show for the first three seasons, is unhappy with the intrusive articles about her recently. The now 53-old actress, who became a youth sensation after donning the red swimsuit in the hit show, was recently pictured walking her dog in the streets of Los Angeles. Following the celebrity spotting, the internet was awash with numerous intrusive content about her personal life, which angered the mother of one.
She recently took to her Instagram account to clarify the doubts and suspicions regarding her appearance. She started the video by thanking her fans who are genuinely concerned about her well-being. But soon, she castigated the media for intruding in her personal life. She also shared with her fans that she had to spend her last birthday under the supervision of law enforcement as a stalker was threatening her privacy. Fearing the safety of her child, she had to opt for the protection.
The ‘Under Seige’ actress further threatened the paparazzi by saying that next time she would return the favor next time. She warned that she would keep her camera ready and click their photos to compare them with their old photos.
