Vogue Williams responds after being criticised for returning to work following son’s birth

Vogue Williams has spoken bout her choice to return to work a little more than a week after she gave birth to her first child.

The TV presenter and her husband, former Made In Chelsea star Spencer Matthews, welcomed their son a little more than a week ago. On Wednesday this week, the new mum returned to work - and kept her followers up-to-date with some behind-the-scenes pictures from the photoshoot. However, she had to follow it up this morning with a statement defending her decision. She began the statement by explaining that she had gotten "so many messages" about going back to work - and she wanted to clarify a few things. She wrote:

"It's my choice [to go back to work] and I feel happy to. I'm not fully back to work yet, it was one shoot. "I don't get maternity leave in my job so I'll obviously be going back sooner than others."

The TV presenter went on to explain that she would only be taking jobs where she can have her son with her, as she is breast feeding "so we shall be glued together for a few months." She ended the Instagram Stories post by asking her followers to "not start the parent shaming already" and that her son is "8 days old and a VERY happy, loved baby." The couple announced their happy news on September 5, just hours after their little one's arrival.

"This morning at 3:55am, we welcomed our son into a quiet London hospital... He is beautiful and healthy. We feel truly blessed".
