Love Island star Dani Dyer has responded to people who shamed her over an outfit she dressed her baby son Santiago in, hitting back at the "mad" messages she has received.
Dani, who welcomed her first child with her boyfriend Sammy Kimmence in January, shared a video on Instagram of the baby boy wearing a woollen hat and a warm winter onesie.
She is heard laughing and calling her son "perfect" in the clip, which she captioned: "This video really warmed my heart. My baby boy you are so special to me".

However, Love Island 2018 winner Dani was forced to defend herself after some followers told her that she was going to overheat her baby if she took him out in the car wearing the outfit.
Addressing the remarks on her Instagram Stories, Dani said: "It's mad the messages I get as a new mum. My child was not in the car in the outfit. He just goes on walks with that outfit on. I'm not going to overheat my child, don't worry about it."
Santiago arrived on January 23, with Dani announcing that she and her family were "in a complete baby bubble and enjoying every moment".
Her own dad, EastEnders actor Danny Dyer, shared his joy at becoming a grandfather on Instagram, saying: "So my baby had a baby. F**k me we needed some joy this year. So proud of you @danidyerxx cannot wait to meet the little beaut".
After announcing her new arrival's name, Dani explained her and Sammy's choice for their little one, with Dani saying: "I know a lot of you are probably thinking 'What?!' but that is his name, but we are going to be calling him Santi. I think it sounds nice on the birth certificate."
Dani's former boyfriend Jack Fincham, who she won Love Island with after the couple stuck together throughout the 2018 series of the show, welcomed his own first child last year when daughter Blossom was born.
Love Island is available via catch up on ITV Hub.
