Hilton’s message comes one week after she posted aseries of photos of her son, whom she shares with her husbandCarter Reum, on Instagram to mark Phoenix’s first trip to New York City. Shortly after sharing, aTikTok userpointed out the negative responses on the post, prompting Hilton to reply that her “angel is perfectly healthy” and “just has a large brain.”
Hilton wrote that the public’s response “deeply” hurt her. “This hurts my heart more deeply than words can describe. I’ve worked hard to cultivate an environment that is all about love, respect, and acceptance, and I expect the same in return,” wrote the new mom.
TheParis in Lovestar added that navigating motherhood as a social media personality has put her under scrutiny.
