Last week, Cavallari, 29, received criticism after posting anInstagram photoof her sonsCamden Jack, 3 1/2, and 2-year-oldJaxon Wyattenjoying a day at the beach on the Fourth of July.

“Even though we’re not in the states, were [sic] still celebrating hope everyone has a fun and safe 4th! #MyGuys,” the formerLaguna Beachstar captioned the photo of the boys playing with snorkeling gear in matching swim trunks.

Soon, social media users began flooding the star’s comment section, writing that the children looked too skinny.

“I understand you live a very strict dietary lifestyle but these children are very obviously nutritionally deficient,” one Instagram user wrote.

Cavallari shut down her critics with one response: “Yep, I starve my children. Just blocked the most people I’ve ever blocked in my entire life. Happy 4th hahaha.”

Cavallari welcomed her third child, 7-month-oldSaylor James, with husbandJay Cutlerin November.

Although Cavallari is a seasoned celebrity mother, Teigen is experiencing life as a first-time mom in the public eye — and she’s dealt with her fair share of mommy shamers.
