“What the hell?”

The Only Way Is Essex star, Kate Ferdinand has been brutally mum-shamed after she posted a series of photos and videos of her kids while on holiday.

She captioned the post: “Had some time out with the family and it was so needed.

“Precious memories made in a place we love. Feeling very grateful.

“PS how we managed to keep Crees hand sand and water free I will never know, but our little solider still had the best time.”

Kate received a lot of backlash after she shared a video of her two children playing on the hotel balcony.

It showed her stepson Lorenz who is 16, lifting his younger brother Cree who’s two, in the air beside the railings.

Despite being right beside the pair, Kate’s been criticised since.

One fan wrote: “My anxiety of how close to the balcony them lifts are.”

Another said: “Omg so close to the balcony banister..what the hell?”

One woman commented: “Gave me the hibbie jibbies watching that video.”

Many people were quick to defend the reality TV star saying the kids were “nowhere near the edge” and that it was just a funny camera angle.

One fan wrote: “It’s the camera angle, poor girl, she’s wonderful. As if you would put the picture up if it was on the edge knowing the criticism you come under.”

Kate is expecting her second child with former footballer, Rio Ferdinand and shared sweet bump pics while soaking up the sun.

However, a lot of her followers didn’t think the photos of her children were appropriate to upload.

One comment read: “Pic number 6 is really uncomfortable to see. Inappropriate.”

Kate was praised for having a close relationship with Rio’s daughter, Tia who is seen rested on her baby bump in one of the photos.

Rio shares Tia (12), Lorenzo (16) and Tate (14) with his first wife, Rebecca Ellison but Kate is absolutely smashing stepmom duties.

One fan wrote: “I love the photo with Tia. She absolutely adores you and the new baby. You’ve done an amazing job with those children.”
