Tamara Ecclestone hits back at critics after posting divisive breastfeeding photo

The 32-year-old mother launched into a rant at “bitter people” who try to “sexualise breastfeeding”.

On Wednesday the socialite posted a picture of her breastfeeding her daughter – who will turn three in March – on Instagram which caused backlash among her followers.

She recently said she planned to continue to feed her daughter until she is four-years-old.

And after receiving backlash for the stunning picture, she has slammed those who criticised her parenting.

Find it a very sad and surprising sign of the times and the world we live in that the act of breast feeding your child evokes such hatred in so many bitter people. I am astonished that breast feeding mums get such a hard time as there is no reason why we should. I would never ask someone when they will take away their toddlers bottle or follow on formula or cows milk or dummy or comforter nor do I judge those who choose to formula feed their children of give them cows milk. I support and empower all mums and I personally believe hatred is so heavy and bad for the soul. I hope by the time Fifi is a mumma people who have chosen to be open about Their breast feeding journey will mean that seeing a picture of a mum feeding their child won't evoke any reaction and that it is seen only for what it is a mum doing her best. To me there is nothing but love in this photograph and I find is such a shame that it brings out anger in some of you it's sad for you that that's how you choose to live particularly those that have made comments trying to sexualise breastfeeding are particularly unwell. I chose love. I want my daughter to grow up in a better world where this is nothing but normal in a better world.

“To me there is nothing but love in this photograph and I find it such a shame that it brings out anger in some of you. It's sad for you that that's how you choose to live, particularly those that have made comments trying to sexualise breastfeeding are particularly unwell.

“I chose love. I want my daughter to grow up in a better world where this is nothing but normal in a better world.”

After people lashed out at the mother on her Instagram yesterday calling the picture “kinda creepy” and saying she “doesn’t live in the real world”, Tamara received more positive comments from her post.

One person said: “I loved yesterday's pic and I love this pic too. Thank you for doing your part for normalising feeding to natural term!”

“As mums we should all encourage each other, not continue to bash with 'my way of feeding is best because that's my opinion’,” said another rational user.

A third commented: “Love your photos. Thank you for raising the profile of breastfeeding toddlers.”

The socialite has previously posted many pictures of her breastfeeding Sophia before and only last month Rebekah Vardy was praised for “masterpiece” snap of her breastfeeding her newborn son.
