"I think it’s important because at the end of the day I think a lot of people forget that no matter the industry or what job you have, we are all human beings. It’s nice to be able to connect with my social media followers and once I opened up about it," she revealed in a recent interview with People. 

The daughter also said that she was "really surprised" at the outpour of positive feedback from fans. “I wasn’t sure what the response would be at first, but I was so surprised and so proud of myself for helping people. That’s something that I love to do,” she added.

While the 16-year-old undoubtedly has a tight relationship with her mama, Amelia shared that she made the decision to public with her past eating disorder on her own.
