Paris Hilton is sharing her heartache and frustration over the recent reaction to a photo she posted of her 8-month-old son, Phoenix Barron, on her social media.
On October 19, Hilton, 42, shared a series of photos of her son’s first trip to New York City, whom she shares with her husband, Carter Reum. However, the post garnered a negative response, with some followers making hurtful comments about her son’s appearance. A TikTok user pointed out the negative response, leading Hilton to respond and defend her child by stating that he is “perfectly healthy” and just has a “large brain.”
Expanding on her response to these comments, Hilton took to her Instagram Story on Monday to address the situation further. She expressed that while living in the spotlight invites comments, targeting her child or anyone else’s is “unacceptable” and deeply hurtful.
“This hurts my heart more deeply than words can describe. I’ve worked hard to cultivate an environment that is all about love, respect, and acceptance, and I expect the same in return,” wrote the new mom.
Hilton also acknowledged the scrutiny she faces in navigating motherhood in the public eye. She mentioned the challenges she encounters, with some people assuming she’s not a good mother if she doesn’t post about her baby, while others are cruel and hateful when she does.
Paris Hilton emphasised her love and pride for her son, describing him as “perfectly healthy, adorable, and angelic.” She called him the “biggest blessing” in her life and expressed how her dream of being a mother has come true.
“Every day with Phoenix serves as a reminder of what truly matters in life,” she explained. Hilton concluded her message by hoping for more kindness and empathy among people, as she found it difficult to believe that anyone would target such innocence.
Paris Hilton and Carter Reum welcomed Phoenix, their first child together, on January 16 via surrogate. Hilton, who married Reum in 2021, shared the joyous news of Phoenix’s arrival on Instagram eight days after his birth, expressing her love for him.
