"Everyone's into barely wearing clothes these days, huh? Not my style. I like to keep the good stuff covered up for the one who matters," another person commented, referring to Ayesha's controversial tweets from 2015.

"Is this the same person that was telling women to cover up a few years ago?" another user asked.

Welp, it looks like Ayesha had time today, as the kids would say. She responded to each of the aforementioned comments with a classy clapback of her own. And honestly, I was here for it.

In response to her and her hubby's faith, Ayesha stated they're "very much so" Christians.*

*In my head, I imagined the ellipsis stood for "and what about it?"
She also addressed her 2015 tweets, sharing that she was "talking about a person wearing nipple pasties leaving a Starbucks" and "thought it was hilarious."

The 31-year-old also made it clear that she "never" told other women to cover up, which is true. Valid points were made.

However, her most savage clapback was in response to someone who had the audacity to say they "smell[ed] a divorce" coming after she posted the photo. Ayesha wasted no time, writing, "You must have covid. Or didn’t read the caption, but go off."

For reference, Ayesha wrote in her caption that Steph is the one who chose the nude shot for the latest copy of her Sweet July magazine. Now THAT'S how you clear a troll.

Hopefully, this will be the end of her 2015 tweets resurfacing every time she posts a picture where she isn't fully covered from the neck down. *Eye roll*
