Olivia Bowen hits back after being mummy-shamed over posting lingerie snap

Olivia Bowen has hit out after being judged over sharing a lingerie snap of herself following the birth of her baby boy.

The former Love Island star, who welcomed her first child with husband Alex in June this year, took to her Instagram feed to post three snaps of herself posing in lilac floral-themed underwear in her bathroom.

Stating that this is an ad for company Boux Avenue, she captioned the post: "I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again @bouxavenue always makes me feel body confident! Pretty lingerie is always a must," followed by a purple heart emoji.


One of her 3million followers immediately responded: "As a new@mm i@would wear and @post these images. Not being nasty but ur a mum now." alongside a kissing emoji.

Unimpressed with the swipe, Olivia hit back: "can't stand this mentality. Makes no difference whether I'm a mum or not Jesus Christ," with a crying with laughter emoji.

Olivia, who recently beamed as she breastfed her son on her first day back at work, added: "Don't put me in the 'mummy' box it ain't for me," with another crying with laughter emoji.

Not everyone was quick to judge though as many gushed over her postpartum body. One person wrote: "Wow Olivia real postpartum body, stunning," with a heart eyes emoji, fire emoji and a celebration hands emoji.

"You look absolutely amazing,can’t believe you gave birth to Abel 6 weeks ago," another posted with a fire emoji, clapping hands emoji and two red heart emojis.

While a third added: "How have you not long had a baby?! Stunning girl and yaaasss to posting, as someone who struggles with my body image after each of my pregnancies this is so good to see," with two celebration hands emojis.
