Piers Morgan has hit out at Emily Ratajkowski on Twitter and raged ‘that’s now how you hold a baby!’
The 56-year-old became angered when the model uploaded a snap with her gender-neutral child, who she gave birth to earlier this year.
He wrote: “That’s not how you hold a baby @emrata – and your millions of followers shouldn’t be encouraged to do the same. Happy to give you some tips if you need them.”

Many people agreed with the journalist, who quit his role at Good Morning Britain after refusing to apologise for comments he made about Meghan Markle.
One person wrote: “That poor baby, totally agree, she should not hold him that way, not good for his neck or spine, only bothered about getting a selfie!”
“She is holding it as if it’s a doll,” wrote another.
A third penned: “Looks like shes to busy showing her bits off @piersmorgan than holding the baby properly.”
However, others jumped to Ratajkowski’s defence and blasted Morgan as ‘shameless’ for passing judgment.
One person wrote: “A brief search of @emrata‘s IG account shows she posted that picture yesterday. What sort of a creep are you to take photos from her IG to post on your Twitter and then pass judgment. Shameless.”
Another added: “Just look through his timeline and you won’t be surprised at all. Any chance he gets to post someone scantily clad, he does.”
Ratajkowski has shared several snaps with her baby on Instagram since welcoming them into the world. However, she has kept their face hidden to protect their identity.
Emily Ratajkowski Jokes She’s ‘Always Breastfeeding’ Gender-Neutral Baby In Sweet Post
The Gone Girl star revealed she was pregnant with her first child in the October issue of Vogue magazine.
Alongside the announcement, she wrote an essay explaining why she and her husband, Sebastian Bear-McClard, had made the decision to raise their child gender-neutral.
It read: “When my husband and I tell friends that I’m pregnant, their first question after ‘Congratulations’ is almost always ‘Do you know what you want?’”
“We like to respond that we won’t know the gender until our child is 18 and that they’ll let us know then.
“Everyone laughs at this. There is a truth to our line, though, one that hints at possibilities that are much more complex than whatever genitalia our child might be born with: the truth that we ultimately have no idea who – rather than what – is growing inside my belly.”
She added: “I don’t like that we force gender-based preconceptions onto people, let alone babies.”
