Pregnant Millie Mackintosh has slammed people who have been commenting on the size of her bump as their opinions lead her to "question her body".
The 30 year old, who is due in May this year, took to Instagram to share a stunning selfie of herself from a side-profile angle, showing off her growing baby bump.
The former Made In Chelsea star, who's expecting her first child with Hugo Taylor, looked stunning as she posed in a white bra and rolled down green overalls inside her bedroom.
A second photo sees the star from a few months earlier, where her bump looks considerably smaller.

Millie, who recently admitted her daughter's arrival is "getting very real" after she and her 33 year old husband built her cot, captioned it: "Something that has bothered me throughout my pregnancy is people commenting on the size of my bump.
"I started showing quite early and people have openly commented on my appearance and size from the moment I announced I was pregnant."
The mum-to-be continued by explaining the opinions of others made her question whether her due date is actually earlier than expected.
She said: "Opinions have only continued as the months rolled by, so much so I even asked my obstetrician if he was sure my due date was correct and then started quizzing him if was sure I wasn’t having twins?!" [sic]
To gain some insight, the brunette-beauty, who recently revealed which foods she's been craving throughout her pregnancy, turned to an app on her phone.
She continued: "Peoples statements were starting to make me question if my body was doing something out of the ordinary, so I turned to @peanut to get advice from other women.
"The app has been an amazing support system for me.
"As soon as I voiced my concerns, I was flooded with responses from women experiencing similar things and also mum's who have since had their babies but did go through the same bump-sized ‘shaming'.
"It’s so refreshing to be a part of a community where women are sharing advice and information (especially in the current situation we find ourselves)."
