Paris Hilton says she was “heartbroken” by the “vicious” comments about her son Phoenix, from Instagram trolls that made fun of the size of his head.

In an interview with People, Paris addressed the rude comments that were left on photos that she posted of Phoenix. “I couldn’t believe that they could be mean and vicious about a little innocent baby. You can say what you want about me, but this is my little angel”, said Hilton.

The DJ explained that she usually ignores the hateful messages she receives, but that this time she couldn’t stay silent while her child was being attacked. “Usually, I wouldn’t even dignify anything like that with a response, but I was just heartbroken that there are such cruel people in the world”. She also said that she “feels sorry” for the people who feel the need to bully a baby. “They’re that miserable in their lives that they would go and speak about a child in such a way”.
The “vicious” comments Paris spoke of were made last month when she posted a photo of Phoenix on her Instagram account. The post was flooded with comments making fun of the size of Phoenix’s head. “There are some sick people in this world. My angel is perfectly healthy”, Paris said in a TikTok video calling out the trolls. She also confirmed that the baby had seen a doctor, and joked that he “just has a large brain”.
Paris and her husband Carter Reum welcomed Phoenix via surrogate in January. Last week they announced the arrival of their second baby, a daughter named London. They surprised their families with the announcement during Thanksgiving dinner.
