Kate Ferdinand hits back after being cruelly mum-shamed over holiday pics
KATE Ferdinand has hit back after she was accused of sunburning her baby bump.
The 31-year-old, who is expecting her second child with Rio, shared a series of snaps from her holiday and her very bronzed body.
But the images left some fans concerned, with one person writing: “Your bump sunburnt.”
Another added: “Sunburned.” While someone else said: “I thought this too! Looks sore.”
Kate quickly hit back, telling the trolls: “I’m not sunburnt at all, my belly is just much browner than the rest of my body!”
The star is currently counting down the weeks to give birth after revealing that she is 33 weeks pregnant.

She has recently written a book about her experiences of being a step mum.
Explaining her decision to do so, she told The Sun: “I had no idea how much time and effort it would take to create a fully blended family.
“I struggled with being a stepmum at first, partly because I had no one to share my experiences with and felt that no one understood what I was going through.
“Although sometimes our life may look perfect, I can assure you it’s not.
“I’m so grateful now for my big blended family with another – baby girl on the way this year – but it’s been one hell of a journey to get here.”
