Shay Mitchell savagely mum-shamed

Fans are pissed. - by Bianca Mastroianni
  • 28 Oct 2019

Shay Mitchell announced the birth of her baby girl last week, but homegirl is ready to party now that the bun is out of the oven.

WATCH: Shay Mitchell parties at Drakes birthday just days after giving birth

However, fans weren't impressed with the Pretty Little Liars star leaving her newborn daughter at home while she, and boyfriend Matte Babel, attended Drake's birthday party.

Fans weren't happy that Shay let her hair down.

Instagram

Shay made it clear on her social media that she was letting her hair down for the night, posing with Matte on her Instagram Story. 

"Parents," she wrote as the caption.

"She captioned her video parents but she's not even being a parent."

Instagram

People were incredibly annoyed about Shay taking a breather from motherhood.

"I understand parents need a night out once in a while, but days after giving birth??" one person wrote. 

"Sorry but who even wants to be out days after giving birth? Post partum pads aren't hot. Stay home and rest your body and bond with your baby," another commented.

Yikes.

One Twitter user even accused Shay of having postnatal depression - a condition that can last from several weeks to several months after birth.

"This just screams some postpartum depression, no need to go out so quickly unless u gotta keep an eye on ur man or prove something. You know how much fluid is still leaking lol."

"You picked Drake over your days old newborn?"

Another wrote: "What could possibly be better than staying home with your 3 day old newborn ? A party ? Really ?"

"Never letting go..." Shay captioned this beautiful photo.

Instagram

Judgment levels: high.

Thankfully, there were some fans who had Shay's back.

"Man some of the people in this comment sections are SO judgmental and are being rude," they wrote.  

"She wanted to have one night to celebrate Drake's birthday. She felt comfortable having HER daughter watched by a nanny or family member so that she could go out with her husband. Newsflash many moms are around the first week or so to help out so that we can rest or do things."

Amen sister.

Shay revealed to the world that she delivered her baby on Sunday, 20th October. She accompanied the delivery update with a video on YouTube on Monday.
