She was warned about the backlash and was forced to stay off social media, though did eventually read some of the reaction.
In her first interview since the Olympics, she told The Project: “As soon as I finished my rounds my media liaison from the AOC [Australian Olympic Committee] said ‘there is a bit of a storm brewing on social media so you might want to go off socials’.
“I didn’t understand the scale of it and then I did preview some comments and I was like ‘oh no’ and this sick feeling started coming out.
“I was like ‘oh goodness what has happened?’”
Raygun, 37, was even mocked by American talkshow host Jimmy Fallon, with the Aussie likening the aftermath of the Olympics to being in a dream.

“I haven’t actually seen the sketch yet because I don’t think I’m in a place yet to watch it but I will watch it at some point.
“I am still in the process of being able to describe how I feel about all this stuff because it kind of feels like a really weird dream that I’ve been having that I am going to wake up from at any moment because what is life right now.”
