Apart from the internal changes, Victoria’s Secret made, Bella told E! News that she decided to rejoin the brand due to her personal growth.

She said: “Another way that I realize my growth – which was super important for me – was being able to be in a setting that I once felt unpowered and to now feel so empowered and so reassured. I don’t know if people understand that just as much as you would feel that it’s uncomfortable to be in your underwear shooting a commercial it is uncomfortable. So the thing about Victoria’s Secret for me now is that they really, really care about us. ”
