Love Island winner Millie Court has hit back at trolls after she received ‘nasty’ comments on a series of bikini pictures she uploaded to her Instagram page.
The reality star was away on a ski trip in Chamonix Mount Blanc resort in the French Alps when she decided to brave the cold for a mini photo shoot in the snow.
During a segment in her latest YouTube vlog, the 24-year-old shared with her audience some of the abuse she was finding underneath her post and how it ‘hurt’ her to see ‘nasty’ comments.
Stopping to chat to the camera, the blonde beauty explained how she was dealing with life in the limelight and admitted she didn’t have as ‘thick’ a skin as what people thought.
Millie revealed people had called her a ‘pikey’ for posing in the silver metallic two piece that she wore underneath a white puffer jacket alongside white Moon boots and sunglasses of a similar colour.
She said to her vlogging camera: ‘I was going through my comments on Instagram, and some of you may not think that I do see what you write but I do.

‘There are some people in this world who aren’t as nice as others. I’m at an amazing snowy beautiful place Chamonix in France and I love a bikini pic.
‘I take bikini pics as I would in Thailand, so I thought I would take one in Chamonix because we have a literal heated pool outside and a hot tub, so we went in it afterwards.’

The star continued on: ‘But people just felt the need to comment calling me a pikey saying I need to get my kit off to get famous.
‘It is quite hurtful when I read comments like that and maybe I don’t have as thick a skin as maybe I should.’
Going on to admit she wasn’t prepared for what greeted her on the other side of the villa’s door, Millie shared: ‘I’ve never been prepared for being in the life that I am, and I’m very very grateful for it, but some people aren’t as thick-skinned as others, me being one of them and it’s not nice.’
Her upload came after the reality star announced her moving in with fellow islander Chloe Burrows following the pair’s split from their respective TV beaus Liam Reardon and Toby Aromolaran.
