Former TOWIE star Sam Faiers divided opinion this morning when she breastfed her son Paul live on TV.
Sam appeared on today’s (Wednesday 12th October) episode of This Morning and after arriving late to the studios, the reality star admitted she didn’t have time to feed Paul so did it as she was interviewed by Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield.
As Sam covered herself with a towel, Phillip made it clear to viewers that it was Sam’s decision to use the towel and was not a requirement by the show.

Viewers of the show took to Twitter to express their opinion on Sam’s decision. Some thought it was a refreshing choice and supported her…
However, some viewers were more critical and suggested she had only done it for ‘publicity’.
Sam appeared on the show to talk about her brand new show, Sam Faiers: The Mummy Diaries, which airs on ITVBe this evening (Wednesday 12th October).
Watch the full inteview below:
The series is a follow up of The Baby Diaries which aired last year to document Sam’s pregnancy and whilst it was mostly loved by fans, some viewers found Sam’s partner Paul very ‘rude’.
When the first episode aired, Paul received tons of backlash from fans who didn’t enjoy his first performance in the spotlight. Many called him ‘arrogant’ and ‘rude’ towards Sam.
Meanwhile, Sam told Holly and Phillip that she is loving motherhood and plans to have another four children with her partner. She said 'Paul and I want five children. We don't want too long a gap between babies, but I want to wait until we're married.”
Sam Faiers: The Mummy Diaries airs on ITVBe.
