MAMMA MIA
I can’t win with mum-zillas – they say my outfits are ‘shameful’ even when I’m in jeans, I can’t help having a sexy body
The mum first hit headlines after faking depression to get a free nose job on the NHS
IT'S the new school year for millions of kids and just like most parents, mum-of-four Carla Bellucci will also be dropping her children off by the gates.
But for the 42-year-old beauty, from the leafy Hertfordshire, the daily school run will also come with dirty looks from ''mum-zillas'' who judge her outfits.

Carla, who's previously admitted to being one of the most hated mums in the UK, said that no matter what she wears, trolls will have something to say.
''I can't win with these mum-zillas,'' she said in an exclusive chat wit Fabulous.
Whether she opts for a more basic ensemble or something more vibrant, the fashionista - who won't leave a single penny to her kids - Carla always gets disapproving looks.
''I dress casual in dress or even maxi dress, and I get accused of wanting attention,'' revealed the mum who's often told she's desperately trying to seduce and ''tease other dads'' - despite being married.

In some cases, Carla claimed, she even gets called nasty names and accusations of ''trying to gain attention'' from fellow male parents by the school gates.
Posing in a figure-hugging midi dress with a flattering square neckline and a sleek ponytail, the 42-year-old said she's been branded ''a total slag''.
''So the next day I would wear a maxi dress and casual it down with a jacket and I get told I’m trying to look 18 and I’m so sad for dressing so young I’m trying to be 18!''
For the self-confessed ''gold digger'', who married a rich old man, there really is no winning with the haters, she said.

I think I look great and the other mum-zillas are actually minging.
Carla Bellucci
The following day, Carla arrived at school sporting ''a nice maxi colourful outfit'' - but it wasn't long until she was met with an army of rude remarks from others.
''I got called a fat wannabe in this dress and told my kids are ashamed to have me as a mum,'' said Carla who said the comments were ''absolutely appalling''.
Controversial Teacher Outfits: Fitness or Faux Pas?
But despite what other mothers say, the 42-year-old, who first hit headlines in 2019 after admitting to faking depression to blag a free £7k nose job on the NHS, knows her curves look sexy.
In her eyes, the continuous criticism is simply a result of one thing - jealousy.
''I think I look great and the other mum-zillas are actually minging, the ones that troll me look like crap, it’s so embarrassing.''
The influencer, who's had multiple tweakments over the year including breast implants, botox and lip fillers, even tried to hit back at the bullies, wearing a T-shirt with a slogan urging others to ''be kind''.

However, the move went unnoticed by the parents of her kids' school who said the outfit was better suited to a teenager more than 20 years younger.
''They still said I looked horrific and I'm trying to dress like a teen.
''I thought I couldn't go wrong in jeans and a T-shirt.
''But clearly I can't help it if my body is curvy and banging.''
The former glamour model, mum to Jermaine, 20, Tanisha, 18 and Jayden, 16 and Blu Gianna, previously revealed that she walks around naked around her kids because “it’s only a pair of t*ts”.

Despite having a whopping 170k fans on Instagram herself, Carla reckons that modern-day parents are producing ''moron kids” who just want to become social media influencers.
“This generation is totally screwed and I blame the [parents] 100%,” said the blonde beauty.
“It’s insane as we have the right to live our own lives but no, these crazy parents give it all to their kids to disrespect them.
“They’re sacrificing themselves for these kids to sit on TikTok and pretend they’re famous – come on.
“People say I’m a terrible mum but kids are ending up as morons who think they are going to [make it on there].
