Lucy Mecklenburgh has taken to social media to hit back at trolls who called her a 'dirty cow,' and criticised her for sharing a breastfeeding snap.
The former TOWIE star, who shares son Roman with her partner Ryan Thomas, posted a screengrab of one of the nasty messages sent to her.
A troll wrote: "You have one child, get a grip of yourself," after Lucy had shared a picture with her little'n.

We mean, really?!
"Gotta love a Karen!!," Lucy wrote in response to the horrid message, taking it in her stride.
But then (would you believe it) another troll chipped in, writing: "I agree with Karen. Get a f*ck*ng grip luv".

As it turns out, the online bully had also left a string of abusive comments to Lucy in the past, too.
In one, responding to a breastfeeding snap, they wrote: "Cover up while breast feeding. It's f*ck*ng disgusting.
"Dirty cow. Poor little boy".

Meanwhile, they said in another: "Omg you are so fat".
Wow.
Lucy shared the messages alongside a string of crying laughing emojis, proving she wasn't going to let the trolls upset her.

The next day she said in a video (which you can watch above): "Thank you for everyone who sent kind, lovely messages after what those two horrible trolls said to me.
"Do you know what, one of the main reasons I wanted to put it up is because I think that a lot of people on social media - influencers and maybe mums, not necessarily - are just scared of being too open and honest because then you're sort of putting yourself out there for people to say really horrible, nasty, personal things.
"If you don't show much of your life, and just a lovely photo here and there, you're less likely to get attacked like that."
You keep doing you, Lucy... the Karens can get in the bin!
