Youtuber Anna Saccone Joly has hit back at online comments made about her children.

The Irish born mum of three lives in the UK with her husband, Jonathan Joly, where they make daily videos all about their family life.

They have famously been very open, detailing the birth of their three kids, Emilia, Eduardo and Alessia, and the 30-year-old is now pregnant with their fourth child.

With their huge following, standing at over 1.8 million subscribers, the Cork native has now called out comments about her children that she has branded as ‘bullying.”

Anna shared a comment posted under one of the family’s Youtube videos, that described 11-month-old Alessia as ‘delayed’ and five-year-old Emilia as ‘overweight’ and ‘chunky.’

“This is the kind of garbage we have to deal with on a daily basis,” she captioned her tweet.

‘But for some reason it’s always worse when it comes to Emilia & Alessia…Eduardo never got as much hate when he was a baby…wonder why?

“And for anyone who’ll say “just ignore the trolls”, we did. For a whole year. We sucked it up, said nothing and it didn’t get any better, it got WAY worse. People showing up at our house, contacting social services, contacting our children’s schools, our doctors, etc. etc.

“It’s 2018, I’m 30 years old and I’m done just “accepting” internet hate. This isn’t just hate anymore, it’s poison, it’s dangerous and it doesn’t just happen to us.

“This is a huge problem and the more us bloggers/YouTubers speak up about it & support each other the better.”

Anna has received huge support from followers and other Youtubers since calling out the vile comments.
