Getting back into your old jeans after having a kid is a thing, but trying to squeeze into your preschooler's clothes? That's a whole new world of pain—unless you are Bethenny Frankel.
According to an article in Huffington Post, the 43-year-old creator of Skinny Girl cocktails and former Real Housewives of New York star posted photos of herself proudly wearing her four-year-old daughter's Hello Kitty PJs on Instagram. There was backlash almost immediately, with Twitter users shouting that she should be ashamed of herself and that she's gross and she's body-shaming her daughter.
As somewhat of an explanation, Frankel says that she was just listening to her daughter, as you do when you have a pre-schooler in your home.
When ur 4 year old peanut says "mommy please put my dress on" & giggles uncontrollably, u do what ur told. @Squirrely007

A case of Instagram sillies—as our blogger Kat Armstrong thinks, or a sad commentary about the lengths some women will go to stay thin?
