The expectant-mum has hit back at trolls who commented on her appearance online.

Giovanna Fletcher is currently pregnant with her third child, however, that didn’t stop someone from commenting on one post telling her she looked “a bit of a mess”.

Well, Giovanna has since responded to the person who posted the comment in a lengthy post on her Instagram page.

“An online stranger commented on my appearance the other night,” read the caption on her post.

“Talking about me being ‘a bit of a mess’… having just spent the day entertaining the boys, after a weekend of doing the same, I just looked in the mirror and thought, ‘Fair point!’.


“See, the thing is, I really don’t have the time (or desire) to pile on the makeup when I’m in my own home. In fact, I don’t even look at my makeup bag.

“Neither do I manage to do more than gather my hair and tie it up on top of my head. My clothes are baggy and ones I can run and play in.

“In the mornings I go for speed, ease and comfort because I have other things to factor into my morning routine. Like getting the boys fed and dressed, and dealing with the morning toothbrushing wrestle.”


Giovanna’s post has been liked by over 140,000 people, many of whom are mothers themselves and praised the mum-of-two for her honest post.

“The most important thing to note though is that this is my face. The actual face I was born with. And I’ve NOT ONCE heard the boys complain that mummy isn’t better put together,” she added.

“I am, in absolutely no doubt, that they love me in whatever state I happen to be in. I think their opinion carries far more weight.”
