'Disgusting!' Billie Faiers comes under fire from fans as her kids wear FUR trimmed hats

Billie Faiers has sparked outrage from fans after posting a sweet snap of her two children in fluffy pom pom hats – which fans suspect are real fur.

The mum-of-two took to Instagram to share a sweet snap of eight-month-old Arthur and her two-year-old daughter Nell, with her 1.4million followers.

The snap showed Nell and Arthur in a shop wearing cosy coats and hats.

Billie captioned it simply with: 'These two today... helping mummy at the farm shop'.

Since posting, the snap has been liked over 30k times and garnered over 100 comments.

But many were in shock that the 27-year-old mum had chosen the fur trimmed hats.

One follower informed the TOWIE star: ‘that company @west22uk uses REAL FUR- raccoon fur to be exact'.

While another fan admitted the snap was sweet but didn't agree with the fur: 'Beautiful but please don't promote fur ☹️ x'

A third follower implored the star to think again: 'Please can I ask @billiefaiersofficial why do you think it's ok to wear real fur? I'll accept your answer even if I disagree, I'm just curious to know if you've given it any serious thought? Thanks!'

Whereas this user didn't hold back, blasting the mum for the 'stupid hats': '@billiefaiersofficial teaching your children from a young age on how to be up compassionate towards animals , SHAME ON YOU ! What a disgusting trade to promote !! Skinning animals alive just to appear on a stupid hat !!!'

'Take those hats off those poor kids. Animals skinned alive for vanity and the kids have no choice', begged another follower, while this fan said: 'That's real fur I believe ? Real fur = unfollow. Celebrity status shouldn't be used for evil and promoting fur is just that.'

This fan simply questioned: 'why do you use animal fur when faux fur is available?'
