Love Island legend Olivia Bowen ‘mum-shamed’ as fans spot ‘dangerous’ detail in son Abel’s bedroom

LOVE Island winner Olivia Bowen has been cruelly mum-shamed for her son's stunning new nursery.

The ITV2 star, 29, has taken on a new role as an interior designer and is busy re-vamping the home she shares with Love Island husband Alex, 32.

The pair share an incredible Essex mansion and Olivia recently revealed their one-year-old son's nursery transformation.

She told fan she was "crying" as she switched his crib for a toddler bed.

Yet fans have taken issue with the latter furniture, which is nestled at the side of the bedroom next to a jungle-themed wall mural.

The mum-shaming came after Olivia had already reassured her Instagram followers she had purchased "side guards" for the wooden beds.

One follower took to Olivia's home renovation account to write: "I believe you aren’t meant to beds against the wall?

"It’s a safety hazard. There’s sadly been a few children die because they have got trapped between the bed and the wall."

Another put: "I second this!! I’ve heard some real tragic stories of toddlers rolling over in a deep sleep and suffocating themselves between the bed and wall.

"I don’t know what an appropriate sized gap is, I just know there should be a gap between the wall and bed xx"

One also called out the star and put: "You need a bed bar Olivia, my daughter spent the first couple of weeks lying by the safety gate.

"Used to break my heart to see her lying there but then she got used to staying in her bed."

A follower then defended Olivia and claimed: "If she had it away from wall, people would comment child could fall and one wrong placed fall can kill a child …there is nothing that will be ‘correct’," followed by a rolling-eye Emoji.

Talking of her passion for interiors, Olivia exclusively told us: "So I studied interior design whilst I was in lock down, I took a few courses online.

"And then it just turned into something that I just absolutely adore.

"So, yeah, that's something that, I'm gonna continue to do."

She added: "We still do a lots of renovations of the house and, we own a couple of properties that we renovate and do up, so it's part of my life, which I absolutely love."

When asked if interior design was something that she did to take out time for herself, Olivia confessed: "This is the thing, like some people will take time and read a book or some people go for a walk.

"It just depends on what fills your cup. Do you know what I mean?

"For me - like painting, I love, it just really depends on you as a person, but anything can be me-time, anything can be self care."

Olivia rose to fame in 2016 on Love Island and found love with husband Alex.

The couple, who tied the knot in 2018, became a family of three after they welcomed their son Abel into the world in June 2022.
