Paris Hilton has clapped back at rude commenters for judging her baby’s head size in a recent Instagram post.

TV personality Paris Hilton first gained popularity in the 1990s social scene while best friends with Nicole Richie. She has also starred several in television series and came out with a studio album in 2006.

Paris has been at the center of many tabloid controversies over the years, considering she dedicated most of her life to partying.

However, in 2021, Paris married businessman Carter Reum and they welcomed their son in January 2023. She has recently discussed how much comments about her child’s head size “deeply” affected her.

Paris Hilton responds to hateful comments about baby’s head size

On October 19, Paris posted pictures of herself and her 8-month-old son Phoenix on Instagram. “My precious angel baby Phoenix’s first time in NYC,” she captioned the image.

In response, some commenters pointed out the size of Phoenix’s head, making jokes by comparing him to Family Guy’s Stewie. However, others seemed concerned and wondered if the child had encephalitis or hydrocephalus based on his head’s circumference.

“IMAGINE being an adult making fun of an innocent baby! Sad world we live in,” one person wrote in defense of Phoenix. Also, Paris then posted an Instagram story to explain how the criticism “deeply” hurt her.

Tiktoker stephwithdadeets also reacted to the rude commenters Paris’s Instagram post. “Dude if you’re bullying babies you should be getting your head checked,” she captioned the video.

Paris then commented on stephwithdadeets’ video, saying Phoenix had been to the doctor and “just has a large brain.”

“Living life in the spotlight, comments are inevitable, but targeting my child, or anyone else’s for that matter, is unacceptable,” she explained.

“If I don’t post my baby, people assume I’m not a great mother and if I do post him, there are some people who are cruel and hateful. I’m a proud working mom and my baby is perfectly healthy, adorable and angelic.”
