The Source: Influencer and TWAG Morgan Riddle reveals she’s ready to let fly

American influencer and queen of tennis Morgan Riddle may have failed to fulfil her Vegemite pledge but she looks set to ace another big part of Aussie culture.

Putting the squeeze on Victoria’s movers, shakers and headline makers.

She failed the Vegemite test, but TWAG favourite Morgan Riddle looks set to adopt another Australianism that’s not as nutritious, but has a very high count of naughty.

The popular US influencer, and girlfriend of tennis star Taylor Fritz, visited a Melbourne acupuncturist who, as part of the treatment, told Riddle to let the expletives fly.

“I’m here to fix my multitude of issues,” Riddle said in a video of her acupuncture adventure.

After the session, Riddle enthused: “Acupuncture! Who knew? It was an intermix of acupuncture and therapy.

“The lady told me I have really bad digestion, which, like, we knew that already. I’ve gotten food poisoning five times this year,” she added. “I get food poisoning the most, (in) of all places, Paris.”

Riddle said the Melbourne acupuncturist also “felt” her “pulse” and “tension” and “told me I’m holding a lot of rage inside.

“She asked the last time I let any rage out, or the last time I cried. I was like, literally never. I’m on (the antidepressant medication) Lexapro — it doesn’t happen,” Riddle said.

“She told me I’m too nice and I need to tell people to ‘f--- off’ more. I wouldn’t say I’m a people pleaser, but if someone does something to me, I don’t really retaliate. I’m like, OK, I’m gonna let you do you.

“I’m not an emotionally reactive person, but I need to be better … about standing up for myself,” Riddle added. “Sometimes it gets to a point where I’m like, I’m not letting this s---fly anymore!”

Riddle was also given a colouring sheet from the acupuncturist, adding: “They said I should colour it in to release emotion and tension.”

The sheet, with pretty floral swirls, featured the foul-mouth mantra: “Smile and say f--- off.”

Riddle’s acupuncture adventure followed her failed attempt to honour a bet to eat a jar of Vegemite.

She made a vow to chow down the yeast extract if Fritz won his Australian Open match against Stefanos Tsitsipas.

Fritz beat Tsitsipas, but the jar of black gunk also defeated Riddle.

She gagged after one teaspoon, making it the perfect time to drop that two-word combo gleaned from her sassy needle session.
