Model Daisy Lowe slams Theresa May just hours after celebrating news she will become the country’s second female Prime Minister
The 27-year-old quickly changed her tune about the future PM after fans reacted angrily
MODEL Daisy Lowe has branded Theresa May a "nasty piece of work" just hours after celebrating news she is to become the next Prime Minister of the UK.
The 27-year-old told her 167,000 Twitter followers she was "so excited" for the current Home Secretary to move into No10.
But after being bombarded with criticism, Lowe was quick to retract her comments.
She then thanked her followers for “enlightening” her about May’s voting history.
In a tweet that has since been deleted she wrote: “So excited for Theresa May to be our new PM!!!! #whorunstheworld #girls #femininityrules.”
