Amy Willerton has received plenty of support from her devoted online followers after she posted an intimate breastfeeding photograph.
The model, 27, looked radiant as she fed her newborn with a smile on her face.
She grinned at the camera with her drink raised to her lips, clearly thrilled to be taking the plunge and breastfeeding her little one in a public place for the first time.
Amy held her young daughter in her arms as she enjoyed a drink in The Ivy.
The I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! star shared the intimate photo with her 355,000 followers on Instagram.
She wrote a heartfelt caption saying: “Yesterday was my first PUBLIC feed with Dem. Seems mad as she’s six weeks old but I’ve been pumping so always had bottles for when I was out and basically I haven’t been brave enough yet… But since I’ve got back from Dubai I’ve hardly been producing any milk!

“My pumps came out empty every time. And I thought wait, to go from so much to so little seemed mad – there must be a reason.
“I assumed dehydration, and started downing water and taking vitamins but still nothing! Until my friend said how much time as she been on the boob recently and I realised out of fear and stigma whilst I was away I had mostly been pumping and feeding by bottle… and the times I had tried giving her the boob she got stressed because she missed the fast flow!

“So I had been giving up. Anyway I decided to give Demz a little nursing holiday and start giving boob all the time again in hope of regaining the flow.
“Committing to this has meant braving the whack out boob moments. So thank you Ashley Graham for drinking coffee with your baby the other day so I could feel more comfortable drinking tea with mine.

“I’m already producing more milk again after one day of relentless boob offerings so I can still make bottles and share those night feeds – the nights have been so much easier when we can use a bottle too and really helps prevent mastitis so pump too if you can milk mamas and if you don’t want to give your baby bottles you can always donate your extra breast milk to help.”
Amy’s devoted followers flocked to the post, showering the gorgeous mum with praise.
One said: “Well done lovely mama, the most natural thing.”
While another wrote: “Love this!”
“So good to finally see this happening more often!,” said a third.
