SHAUGHNA Phillips has hit back after being mum-shamed for a “dangerous” parenting move with baby girl Lucia.
The former Love Island star, 29, announced in April she’d welcomed her first child with ex-boyfriend Billy Webb.

Today Shaughna shared a sweet snap of little Lucia trying baby porridge – and was inundated with messages insisting it’s too soon.
The NHS recommends introducing your baby to solid food when they’re around six months old and to never start before four months.
Explaining Lucia is “only having a few little spoons here and there”, Shaughna added: “I’m also no expert (like some out there HEHE) and every baby is different, so do whatever at your own pace and check with your midwife if you’re unsure.”
Hitting back at the mum-shamers, Shaughna said in a clip posted to her Instagram story: “Honestly, you would think that I’ve started telling people that I’m making Lucia’s bottles with vodka now instead of water.
“She’s trying four to six months porridge and she’s just over four months, she’s 18 weeks. So you can report me to the police but I think I’ll get no further action, thanks huns.”
It’s not the first time Shaughna has hit back at cruel comments over her parenting.

Earlier this month she shared a critical message she received after revealing Lucia was getting her vaccines.
Shaughna’s follower asked: “Why put these toxic chemicals in the baby? I wonder if parents actually ask to read the labels/ingredients of these vaccines.
“These amounts are not deemed safe for adults yet we are willingly giving them to babies and then wonder why no one can explain SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome).”
Shaughna decided to reply back, telling fans: “Morning. Just for anyone considering sending me a message about my child, please refer to the above as a response.
“Also not an aesthetics practitioner telling me about the dangers of vaccines. Do you not inject people with chemicals every day?”
Shaughna’s reply read: “I can’t believe you went out of your day to message me this lol.
“This last time I checked you didn’t give birth to my daughter so next time you have an opinion on her health, write it in your notes and save it for a rainy day.”
Routine vaccinations are offered free of charge on the NHS to all babies and children in the UK.
Jabs are common for young children in order to build their immunity and protect against a variety of illnesses.
