Camilla Thurlow slams troll who called her 'classless' for breastfeeding daughter in car

Camilla Thurlow has slammed an online troll, who called her "classless" for breastfeeding her baby in her car.

The Love Island star, 33, shared a selfie of herself feeding two-month old Nora Bell with the caption "it's important to share that and not just the perfect moments".

However, the mum-of-two then revealed she'd been criticised for the post, fuming she'd told the troll to leave the "business of behaving like a baby to the babies".

Taking to Instagram, Camilla said: "I shared this on my stories earlier and someone sent me a message saying how "classless" it was.

'It's easy to end up sharing the highlights of parenting on here, but between the pretty reels are many moments, like this, that are part of the reality.

'Like feeding in carparks, or pumping in bathroom stalls or using the five minutes you had for a cuppa to sterilise bottles."

Camilla continued she often leaves early for meetings to try and find the right time to feed her baby, despite getting no sleep.

She then added: "Or stay up late when you're utterly exhausted to wash your pump parts before work tomorrow, or try to screw a bottle top on one-handed whilst rocking a pram so you don't disturb anyone.

"There's constant planning, and prepping and admin that you do to try and make things work for everyone (usually while trying to make it look easy at the same time), and then there's enduring the critical looks when inevitably one day it doesn't quite go as smoothly as planned despite all the effort you've put in.

"I put that story up thinking there would be so many parents in a similar position today - feeding their baby, multi-tasking and making things work - because that's the reality..."

The star's post went down a storm with fans with many congratulating the former reality star for her honesty.

One fan wrote: "Couldn't agree more!"

While another said: "Well done for sharing this!"

Camilla shares two kids with Jamie Jewitt, who she met on the third series of Love Island.

She recently opened up about being mum again having given birth in 2020 to daughter Nell.

Taking to Instagram with adorable pics of her girls, she explained: "[The transition] has been hard to compare. One to two [children] has been nowhere near as big a shock to the system.

"Nora is a very different baby. We have a lot of support in place this time (we went into lockdown after Nell was born, so that was very different and I haven't been ashamed to accept any help that was offered."
