Tamara Ecclestone angered her Instagram fans when she shared photos of her daughter Fifi’s 10th birthday present – a sloth.
The millionaire heiress, 39, captioned the photos ‘Special birthday morning’ with three love hearts, while her fans went wild in the comments.
The images all featured Fifi and the sloth, with a couple also showing her sister Serena who turned four a few days before.
Fifi and Serena are Tamara’s only children and she shares them with her husband of over a decade Jay Rutland, an art dealer.
Tamara, who recently spoke out about the release of her mansion’s burglar, was hit with comments such as: ‘I’m disgusted by this. I’m unfollowing.’

‘”Mummy – get me a sloth” – “sure princess, anything you say”.’

‘The world doesn’t revolve around your children. You don’t have to drag wild animals in to your house for your children amusement. This is just disgusting and stupid.’
‘This is so wrong on every level. I can’t follow this account any longer.’
‘I’ve enjoyed this page but unfollowing now as I can’t believe you brought a sloth into your home . Maybe spend the money seeing them in the wild next time.’
