Chrissy Teigen wasn't prepared to let online trolls off the hook for their cruel comments surrounding a recent social media upload.

The model, 37, was vacationing in Italy when she shared a snap of her, hubby John Legend and their third child Esti.

The tot was in a baby carrier attached to the singer, 44. She uploaded the image to Instagram alongside a story from a throwback visit to the country.

Chrissy wrote: "just a couple of crazy child-free kids," regarding their 2007 trip.

Referring to a clothing retailer, she continued: "It was the dead of winter, absolutely freezing cold and john fondly remembers my single faux urban outfitters fur hat that adorned me every day and night.

But the cute story and accompanying image paved the way for online criticism from a number of angles. First up came a comment about the baby's positioning close to John's chest.

The user slammed the pair and said they needed to figure out "how to wear the carrier right".

Chrissy wasn't up for the criticism though and hit back: "'right' is how she is comfortable," before adding: "she doesn’t like to be high and tight and likes to look around and see her daddy."

The model then reiterated her point and said their child is "safe and happy".

Despite the odd negative comment however, the majority of Chrissy's followers praised the snap and story.

Chrissy and John welcomed baby Esti on January 13. They also share Luna, 6, and Miles, 4.
