Charlotte Dawson has hit back at a mum-shamming troll who claimed she had put her newborn ‘on a shelf’ during a baby photoshoot.
The mother-of-two, 30, who welcomed her son Jude in July and shares son Noah, two, took to Instagram on Monday to post the sweet photos but had to quickly defended herself following a ‘daft’ comment from a fan.
The photos gave the illusion that Jude was propped on top of a shelf beside photo frames, but he was actually lying on the floor.
However a fan, who thought Jude was left to balance on a shelf alone, commented: ‘Please take Jude off the shelf- my anxiety is through the roof.’
Charlotte, who is engaged to the father of her sons Matt Sarsfield, hit back and wrote: ‘It was on the floor so you really think I’d leave my baby on a shelf [laughing faces]’.

In August, Charlotte admitted that she felt ‘so down’ since a troll called social services on her for a second time.

‘I’ve had so many messages checking up on me thank you so much for being the best insta fambo, love you all.
‘I’ve been so down but I’m not letting these weirdo freaks win. I’m bloody better than this & made of stronger stuff, they will get karma for what’s going on I’m sure. can’t wait to find out who you are, anyway enough about that negativeness.’
Concentrating on the positive aspects of her life, she went on: ‘I took our beautiful Jude out in the balmoral @silvercrossuk pram, so special as it was Noah’s & my mum and dad used to take me out in this pram when I was a baby round fairhaven lake.
‘Now here I am with our second boyo, precious. Not letting anyone pop our baby bubble.’
