Former Love Island sensation Molly-Mae Hague has broken her silence after facing a torrent of online abuse about her parenting techniques with daughter Bambi.
The 24-year-old influencer, who shares her one-year-old with boxer Tommy Fury, took to social media to address what she described as "cruel" comments from followers questioning her capabilities as a mother.
Emotional Response to Parenting Critics
In a heartfelt message to her millions of followers, Molly-Mae didn't hold back when confronting the mum-shamers who've targeted her family life.
"The comments I've been receiving recently have been beyond hurtful," she expressed. "People seem to think they have the right to judge every aspect of how I'm raising my daughter."
Standing Up Against Online Trolls
The creative director of PrettyLittleThing emphasised that while she understands public scrutiny comes with her celebrity status, there should be boundaries when it comes to criticising parenting choices.
"I'm still learning, like every new mum," Molly-Mae explained. "But the constant negativity and unsolicited advice has become overwhelming. No mother should have to defend their love and care for their child."
Support from Fellow Parents
Since sharing her message, the reality star has received an outpouring of support from fellow parents and fans who've praised her for speaking out against online bullying.
Many have shared their own experiences with mum-shaming, creating a wave of solidarity across social media platforms.
Molly-Mae concluded her message with a powerful statement: "I'll always do what's best for Bambi, regardless of keyboard warriors who think they know better. My daughter's happiness and wellbeing will always come first."
