Kaitlynn Carter Blasts Critics For Questioning Her 'Revealing' Outfits Now That She's A Mom

Kaitlynn Carter is a well-known social media influencer, boasting nearly one million followers on her Instagram account. She also joined the cast of reality series "The Hills: New Beginnings" in 2019 alongside her then-boyfriend Brody Jenner, as per Marie Claire. Since they both had to continue starring on the show, this could have been incredibly awkward after the break-up, but Carter told Hollywood Life in October 2020 that they "actually transitioned very smoothly from a couple" to friends. 

In May 2020, the blogger met her current boyfriend, fashion designer Kristopher Brock, as per Us Weekly. Their relationship moved quickly and a year later, the couple announced that they were expecting their first child together, which Carter opened up about on a June 2021 episode of the "Hillscast" podcast, per People. She revealed that the reason for diving straight into having kids was that it was "something that [she] wanted for so long." Fortunately, Brock shared the same goals.

On September 30, 2021, Carter gave birth to a baby boy, named Rowan. She shared the happy news with her Instagram followers in a post that showed her breastfeeding the newborn, alongside a message that read, "everyone is happy and healthy and so in love." Since becoming a mom, the television personality has learned an important lesson that not everyone will be understanding and accepting of her choices. In her most recent Instagram post, she called out haters who have criticized the clothes that she chooses to wear post-baby.

Kaitlynn Carter will express herself in whatever way feels right for her

Kaitlynn Carter took to Instagram on January 5 to send a pointed message to anyone who disapproves of her outfit choices now that she's a mom to a bouncing three-month-old baby boy. According to the blogger, she has received hateful messages from her followers on certain posts in which she is dressed in a way that some feel is unbecoming for a mother. For a New Year's Eve party, she decided to send these critics the middle finger by choosing a risqué outfit that showed off plenty of cleavage and posting a reel of photos showcasing her sexy look. 

Alongside the photos, Carter wrote that she had always heard stories "about women being criticized for their choices once they'd become mothers" and finally understood what that meant. She explained that prior to giving birth to her son, no one had a problem with the "revealing" outfits she wore in her social media snaps. However, that's since changed. She defended her choice to continue dressing how she pleases, penning that she will embrace her post-baby body and do what makes her happy.

Backlash about her outfit choices isn't the only criticism the new mother has faced. In an Instagram post promoting cord blood banking, Carter offered a discount to those who purchased through a specific company with her personal code. Some of her followers condemned this, including one who wrote, "And time to start monetizing your newborn. Didn't take long."
