Bonnie Blue has told her critics to "direct that anger elsewhere" following a backlash over her pregnancy announcement

She hit back at the criticism in a statement, explaining: "To the women showing anger towards me because they've experienced a miscarriage, that's wrong. It's terrible that they've gone through such a loss and I genuinely can't comprehend what they've had to endure. But I am not the reason for it ...

"It's my body and I can choose to share news about my pregnancy however I wish. It does not mock miscarriages at all. What they've experienced is heartbreaking, but it isn't my fault and it isn't my problem. If you're angry, direct that anger elsewhere."

She went on to add: "As a woman carrying a baby, you already have enough worries. Why add stress? It's not good for the baby and it's just wrong.

""There are pages and helplines to talk about miscarriage and get advice. A pregnancy announcement isn't one of them."

Bonnie previously revealed she decided to take a pregnancy test after suffering a string of illnesses on a holiday to Tenerife and was stunned to receive a positive result.

She said in a video diary: "I've been being sick, a headache, and when I say headache I mean like mega migraine.

"Foods have been making me feel sick, but then also some foods I'm wanting to eat instantly else I will be sick."

After days of trying to feel better with baths, face masks and sips of Pepsi in her Airbnb, Bonnie decided to take a pregnancy test.

She said: "I'm a little bit nervous. One line pregnant, no line if I'm not pregnant. I'll be back in two minutes."

The 26-year-old star then returned in shock. She said: "That is a pretty ... it's like half pink, half white. Kind of looks like a drumstick actually. Yeah, definitely pregnant. Like fully pregnant."
