A fitness influencer says she was removed from a gym after a staff member told her that her outfit was 'embarrassing' and 'too revealing'.

Jessica Freitas explained that she was approached by a gym employee just a few minutes into her typical workout routine.

The 33-year-old shared that the employee called her attire 'embarrassing' and pointed out that she wasn't even given a chance to explain or talk through the situation.

Jessica believes she was unfairly singled out, noting that 'other women in the gym who were dressed the same as me weren’t told to leave.'

"It's like they were waiting for me to do something that goes against the rules," the Brazilian influencer mentioned.

She described her outfit as tight pink shorts and a black sports top, adding that she was not recording or filming anything in the gym located in her hometown of São Paulo.

Jessica told What's The Jam: "I wasn't naked or anything like that."

"I only went to train as I feel most comfortable."

"There were other girls there training in shorts and bra tops like me and they weren't told to leave."

The influencer stated that the gym staff seemed to be 'on the lookout for any small issue', which could explain why they chose to approach her and ask her to leave.

These actions left Jessica feeling 'watched and under pressure' as she tried to complete her usual workout routine.

She even described the employees as 'people from the last century' and labeled them as 'malicious, false moralists'.

Jessica compared the incident to asking a woman to leave a beach for wearing a bikini.

She added: "This incident has damaged my image."

"It's not like I was looking to show off or provoke anyone."

Amid all this, Jessica took to Instagram with a bold post where she confidently posed in the 'controversial' outfit, sharing a message with her followers.

On October 27, Jessica spoke to her followers, saying: "Complain all you want, it doesn't pay my bills."

Things have since taken a more positive direction, as Jessica shared that she received a call from the gym on October 28.

It appears that the matter has been settled, with both sides reaching an 'amicable agreement'.

Jessica said she would be 'happy to return' to the gym in the future.
