The social media user had wrote: ‘Hi just wondered if you’d ever acknowledged the hurt and pain you cause people with your “perfect” posts.
‘I don’t follow you but sadly they come up on my explore page. Your perfect demonstration of life has cost other people’s lives, quite literally. Perhaps something to be aware of with your future posts.’
The Love Island host revealed she had already reported the troll, adding that their comments were ‘not a one off’.

She added: ‘Instagram is not real life and you cannot blame other people for your feelings. But sending messages like this is dangerous. Take responsibility for yourself.
‘Don’t judge people by an Instagram post. No one knows what people are fighting privately. I choose to use social platforms for work and positivity.’
The Irish beauty then shared a though-provoking message which read: ‘A little reminder that you are responsible for what you put out in the world. Make it good.’

However, the presenter confirmed her baby’s gender in an excerpt from her new self-help book, No One Can Change Your Life Except for You.
She said: ‘As I finish this book, it doesn’t end at chapter nine, there’s a new chapter coming into my life – in the form of a baby girl currently growing inside me and that scares the s**t out of me.’
The media personality has documented her pregnancy on social media and previously said she is due in ‘early 2021’.

Last month, the former MTV star revealed she has no plans to give up working when she becomes a mother.
The model told how her mother Carmel having a child ‘out of wedlock’ in 1980s Ireland taught her ‘there’s nothing you can’t do’.
Speaking to The Telegraph, she said: ‘All my friends from school are doctors or teachers. The fact that I even thought it was possible to go off and work at MTV came from my mum because her attitude was: “If you want to, then why not?”
‘When people ask if I’m going to give up work this year because of the baby, I’m like, “Why? Mum did it in ’80s Ireland!”‘
