Sam Faiers finally fires back at trolls over calling her a bad mum

Reality star is constantly criticised for her parenting skills

Former TOWIE star, Sam Faiers, has hit back at internet trolls who branded her a bad mum.

The Essex beauty welcomed her son Paul in December 2015 with her other half Paul Knightley.

Her life as a new parent has been documented on TV show The Mummy Diaries, as she opened the doors of her home to cameras.

But with her skills as a new mother out there for the world to see, some internet trolls have criticised her.

Sam was also criticised by other mums for using her car seat “incorrectly” back in December after sharing a video on Instagram.

She uploaded the video of the cute tot and captioned it saying: “Words can’t describe my love for you my baby…You make me laugh all day long.”

But it wasn’t long before the haters struck again, accusing Sam of using baby Paul’s car seat in an incorrect manner.

One online troll said: “Wow! Some serious lack of proper car seat safety training going on here!!!”

Another added: “She can’t be that well advised when several of us have seen her use the seat sideways when it isn’t meant to be (and the headrest is too high)!”

But fans were quick to bash the online haters and defend Sam.

One said: “Can’t believe people go out there way to try and judge your parenting. Sam just keep doing what your doing baby Paul is a very content happy little guy an that’s all down to you and your family.”

Another added: “Some people are so quick to judge. Nothing better to do?”

Now Sam has hit back twice as hard to confront the online haters!

She told The Sun: “Twitter is the worst. I just get criticised for everything I do.

“For example what my baby is wearing. I get criticised for weaning and feeding too.”

The 26-year-old admitted she was left “upset” over the remarks made towards her partner Paul, too.

He ended up in the firing line after The Mummy Diaries aired, when viewers on Twitter called him, “weird” and a “chauvinistic pig”.

The model added: “That’s the father of my baby,

“So it really upsets me that there’s no support.

“You would just think that people would show more support. It’s my family and I’m very protective over my family.”

The reality star is determined the criticism will not ruin her enjoyment of family life.

She said: “I’m not going to cry about it because I’m a strong person, but sometimes you just think something has to give.”

Just a few weeks ago, she revealed on Loose Women the couple would love to have another baby, but they wanted to wait until they married.

She said: “We both want to be married first and we have both discussed it. But it’s Paul’s call.”

Time for the trolls to lay off!
