Love Island’s Shaughna Phillips hits out at vile trolls after she is body-shamed and told to ‘lose weight’ | The Sun

LOVE Island’s Shaughna Phillips has hits out at cruel trolls after she was body-shamed and told to "lose weight".

The reality star – who welcomed daughter Lucia in April – has been praised for showing off her incredible real post-baby body in a khaki swimsuit last month in Mallorca.

But not all fans have been so positive and have cruelly DM'd the star about her appearance.

Shaughna, 28, took to social media to share private messages she had recieved, including one fan who told her "I think it's time you lose weight."

Shaughna was forced to respond and said that she "did not care" what people thought about her figure after "putting on weight" during pregnancy.

After sharing a string of messages from vile trolls, Shaughna said she was worried that she would get into trouble for naming and shaming them on her Instagram Stories.

"I then went in for emergency forceps but as soon as they put them on her head, she flipped around so they had to stop and go ahead with the emergency C-section."

Shaughna added: "I was really sad I wasn't able to give birth how I originally planned, but I always said I'll have whatever birth needed to get here, and that was the most important thing to me."
