Paige VanZant and husband Austin Vanderford are well aware of the social media sensations they’ve become since stripping down in quarantine.
“My wife and I have been called ‘The Van Nudists’ during lockdown and it is definitely appropriate,” the MMA fighter
chronicled for The Telegraph,
via The Sun.
VanZant, 26, and Vanderford, who have been married since 2018, have made the most of a unique situation,
devising daily shoots in their birthday suits to share with their Instagram followers.
“Every day we tried to come up with something new, whether we were working out, naked meal planning and cooking, gardening, out on the balcony, or just lounging about. We are having fun with it, for sure,” Vanderford shared, noting “it has got a bit wild at times.”
In addition to baring their buns in the kitchen, VanZant and Vanderford have also sent “subtle” messages to haters using props. Vanderford also said he feels right at home with minimal clothes.
“Not wearing much is normal for me. I am from the countryside in Alaska. I would say 90 percent of my life I have not had clothes on,” he said. “Going wild and naked in the wilderness is where I feel the most comfortable. I smell like a wolf right now. I am very animalistic, for sure.”
