Love Island's Hannah Elizabeth hits back at critics over glam look to give birth

Love Island star Hannah Elizabeth received backlash from her followers after she wore a full face of makeup and had a glam blow dry while giving birth

New mum Hannah Elizabeth has hit back at critics who weren't happy with her getting all glammed up to give birth to her first child.

The Love Island star welcomed baby boy Reggie two weeks ago and has now responded to the "haters" who weren't happy with her glam look.


The 29-year-old took to Instagram with a length caption, in which she defiantly explained why she chose to get her hair and makeup done.

She said: "Yes haters I did have makeup on after giving birth. Actually I had had a curly blow, pin curls, the lot.

"I wasn't gonna meet my son for the first time and best day of my life rough was I?"

She went on: "I had a C-section so birth was planned, chilled and amazing."

Later, on her story, she wrote: "Because apparently you shouldn't take time from your baby to 'cake makeup on' so when the nurse says to get up and go for a shower, freshen up, you're meant to just lie in the bed sweating?


"And it's 'offensive' to other mums, lol wtf?"

A photo of Hannah with her little boy attracted a lot of negativity from fans questioning her glam look.

Just a week ago, Hannah announced the name of her new baby boy in a gushing Instagram post.


Alongside a photo of the tot, she said: "Never known anything like the happiness and love you have brought me. The love of my life and best thing that ever ever ever happened to me.
