Rachel Gorry has shared a string of hurtful and abusive messages she received after posting a photo of her new partner online.
The creator and mum-of-three has been in a new relationship for a few months, and has shared some photos of she and her boyfriend’s recent trip to Rome together.
This new romance comes after the tragic death of her husband, Daniel, who passed away in 2020.
Rachel has said that she is now happy, “for the first time in a long time.”

“We were in Rome and I just thought, I’ll share a picture so you know who it’s not,” she said. “So that’s what I did anyway. I was very happy to do that. He’s very easy on the guy. He’s handsome.
“So I thought that will stop people maybe taking photographs of him in public and saying ’this is him’ or my friends won’t be getting tagged. Some of my friends had got some pretty mad messages. So I thought that I would just put an end to it and that would be it.
“However, I got these messages. I think I’m probably better off showing you the messages first before I come on and then say what I’m going to say.”
Rachel then posted a series of messages she had received from followers, complaining that she had shared her new partner online.
Rachel went on: “I can tell you now I am so happy and I have been through six years of absolute hell. And for the first time in a very long time, I feel very happy. I’m in my little love bubble at the minute.
“My family’s happy. My girls are happy. I’m happy. And to me, that’s all that matters.”
We’re only delighted for you Rachel – you deserve this happiness!
