Paris Hilton Fires Back After Internet Trolls Mocked Her Baby Boy’s Physical Appearance

ADVERTISEMENT

Y2K It Girl, aka Paris Hilton herself, welcomed her first child, son Phoenix, on January 16, 2021, via surrogate, and has become the ultimate mama bear ever since.

Supermom is just another label the iconic socialite can now add to her long list of accomplishments, especially following updates on her family life, which she shares with her husband-entrepreneur Carter Reum who has a daughter named Evie from a previous relationship.

Last Friday (October 20), Paris posted an endearing set of pictures on her Instagram account, showcasing nine-month-old Phoenix during his first visit to New York City, the city where the starlet was born.

The model was holding her adorable baby, who was wearing a cute Burberry assembled outfit.

However, what was meant to be heartwarming news shared with her 24.9 million Insta followers turned into a joke, as hurtful remarks concerning Phoenix’s appearance started to overtake Paris’ comment section.

People were particularly referring to the size of the baby boy’s head, making comments that were too vicious to be granted further exposure, especially considering that the subject of these comments is too young to defend himself.

There were also individuals on the internet who went a step beyond and criticized the 42-year-old mom and her abilities as a parent.

Online trolls made extremely harsh comments about nine-month-old Phoenix



As some individuals mocked her son Phoenix’s head size, Paris said he had gone to the doctor and that he was perfectly healthy

The negativity surrounding the post made its way across the internet, prompting TikToker Stephanie Tleiji to call out the cruelty.

“What is wrong with humanity,” Stephanie conveyed to her 272.9 thousand followers, as she went through some of the heartless comments.

“Now people resort to bullying a baby, a baby that probably gets the best healthcare ever,” she said, in her video that received 314.8 thousand views.

Paris went on to directly address the comments in the post, writing: “There are some sick people in this world.

“What is wrong with humanity,” a TikToker said in defense of Paris

@stephwithdadeets Dude if you’re bullying babies you should be getting your head checked. 🤦🏻‍♀️ 🙄 #parishilton #paris #phoenixhiltonreum #greenscreen #parishiltonbabynews #popculture #phoenixbarronhiltonreum ♬ original sound – Stephanie Tleiji

“My angel is perfectly healthy. And yes, of course, he has been to a doctor, he just has a large brain.”

Fortunately, Paris appears to have drawn strength from her unwavering family support.

“[My parents] are just so obsessed with him,” The Simple Life star said whilst appearing on Jimmy Fallon’s The Tonight Show earlier this week.

“I’m always calling my mom and my sister [Nicky Hilton] for advice, and I’m really lucky that I’m so close with my family, so I have such a big support group,” she added.

Haters were also criticizing Paris’ parenting skills

The tabloid expert also further opened up about motherhood in an interview with People last week.

She said: “I always make Phoenix my first priority, and I’ve learned how to say no.

“I’m constantly saying no to things, because I just want to spend as much time with him as possible, and I just don’t want to miss any of these special moments in his life and all these milestones.

“He’s my everything, so I always put him first.”

Nevertheless, Paris’ fans were quick to jump to her defense

Lots of people apparently really dislike babies and children, so I guess they figure it’s open season

When my youngest was having his skull measured during his well baby checkup, his doctor exclaimed "holy hell - his cranium is huge!". He then measured his 2 year old brother's skull and found that it was the same size as my youngest. I worriedly asked if this was bad, and he said "no - he just has a big brain". I don't know if there is a correlation between size and intellect, but if there is, my baby lived up to his brain's potential. He's scary smart.

I'm not the biggest fan of young children (you know the joke, couldn't eat a whole one) but he looks like a lovely little fella.

I've seen plenty of different shapes of baby heads. Some really flat on one side from laying in the same position all the time. Some are very round because of a C-section birth. Some are quite elongated. In this picture, it could be the "fun house mirror" effect some cameras have that are making his head more light bulb-like than in real life. But his head is not THAT abnormal. People just still like to s**t on my girl Paris.

"He just has a large brain" gee, wonder where he inherited that from. /s (clearly paris is smarter than her image portrays her, but I've just never liked her much, especially after hearing what she did to her dogs)

Let's be honest here. 1) his head does look bigger than usual 2) baby doesn't care about anyone's comments, it's the mother who feels sad or hurt 3) no one has to pretend all children are beautiful 4) he may be perfectly healthy and grow up to look normal. Stating the obvious doesn't mean someone hates children. Women making drama out of it are even more annoying than people who laugh at the baby.

If you learn only one thing in life, let that be not to mess with a mothers child. Any mother, any child. Just ask a grizzly bear.

It’s not just because she’s a “celebrity”. People are making fun of a baby. How low can someone be to make fun of an innocent child’s appearance? Paris- your son is adorable. He has beautiful eyes and a very sweet smile. There’s some nasty people in this world to make fun of your, or any, child. He’s perfect.

I personally hate kids, but this kid is as normal as the day is long. Not so much for a lot of the commenters.

My infant son also had a large head. The 1st time someone made THAT comment, I rushed to the pediatrician. No, he had no problem. Yes, his body will catch up so there will be balance. It did and he has. At 27, he is a good-looking man with much going for him. But, I will never forget how horrible and painful that comment was. It has kept my mouth closed whenever a comment that could be misconstrued peeks out. Part of being a good mom is ignoring those comments and never letting your child hear them.

I mean I don't give a sh!t about PH, but that doesn't mean you go and attack her baby's appearance. He's a cute, big headed dude. I personally love big headed babies. They grow into it eventually. It doesn't mean anything is wrong, as if her rich a*s hasn't taken him to the pediatrician anyway.

With Paris Hilton's history being on public display, I'm thinking she still had no problem delivering that baby and his popular cranium..
