Catherine Tyldesley left speechless by ‘mum-shaming’ Twitter troll

OHMYGOSSIP — Catherine Tyldesley has been left “speechless” by a “mum-shaming” Twitter user, who slammed her for posing for photoshoots.
The former ‘Coronation Street’ actress – who recently departed the ITV soap, partly to spend more time with her three-year-old son Alfie – hit back after the social media troll slammed her for “seeking self gratification” while her child was “at home without their mother”.
They wrote: “Why do you feel the need to post pics and selfies of yourself online? You are a Mother and a responsible adult. How do you have time to have photo shoots etc? Don’t you feel guilty seeking self gratification while your child is at home without their Mother? (sic)”
A shocked Catherine replied: “Wow… I mean I’m speechless. Is it 1950?? Mum shaming??? Really??? I have no need to justify or explain my actions to you or anyone. So much for parents empowering and supporting each other. May your heart find joy and gratitude . Blessings x (sic)”
In April, the star admitted part of her reasoning for quitting ‘Corrie’ – on which she played Eva Price – was so she could travel more with her son Alfie and husband Tom Pitfield.
She said: “The timing seemed right. My son Alfie doesn’t start at school for another two years so as a family we wanted the chance to travel.
“I have relatives in Australia, but we didn’t want to go for just a couple of weeks, we’d like to go over there and spend six weeks or more over there and then visit as many countries as possible.
“Tom and I had always talked about travelling and we are keen for Alfie to visit different cultures.
“In between there will hopefully be some exciting projects for me as well.”
