THE girlfriend of Strictly star Nicola Adams has hit back at cruel trolls who called her "disgusting" for breastfeeding their baby in lingerie.
Model Ella Baig caused controversy when she wore sexy underwear with stockings and suspenders while feeding her five-month-old.
She was shamed with abuse under an Instagram snap – as she attempted to show how she juggles being a lingerie model and having a baby.
The 23-year-old wrote: "I make milk, what’s your superpower?"
But after backlash online, Ella insisted being a mum doesn't stop her being sexy – despite backlash from fans who called the picture "inappropriate".
"Seems like I ruffled some feathers with this one", she said.

"Yes, I'm feeding my child but that doesn't then extinguish my sexuality.
"The two are not interchangeable, they co-exist."
Ella has been dating her Olympic boxer girlfriend Nicola since 2018.
In 2020, the couple started IVF using Nicola’s egg fertilised via a sperm donor who resembled Ella.
Their little boy – who was born a month premature in July this year – was named Taylor Nate Adams.
Ella caused controversy with her latest lingerie snap with Taylor a post in which she discussed her boobs "being hot and still having purpose".
Ella wrote: "Honestly still find it crazy that my body literally makes milk and my baby lives off it, or for it in his case! Boobs are so over sexualised and breastfeeding has given me a whole new perspective on them, it’s such a wholesome feeling watching my baby feed and how content he is.
"Now don’t get me wrong, boobs are hot too but just like any other body part they shouldn’t be reduced to only being hot.. they have purpose and don’t need to be hidden away. On another note, how cute is this set."
Someone commented under the outspoken post, saying: "Having your baby in a sexy pic is very inappropriate."
Another said: "Nothing more beautiful than a mother feeding her baby but not in that type of pic sorry."
She was praised by a fan, who said: "You're doing amazing, people saying it's weird, it’s not – breastfeeding is most natural thing in the world."
