"We'd been at a football game and she was looking really cute. She had a little clip in her hair. I put a picture of her on social media and someone responded. I don't think I've ever read anything as disgusting. I was distraught and we got the police involved straight away," Rebekah told British tabloid, The Daily Star yesterday.
"I feel like I don't want to go out of the house, like I don't want to go anywhere that someone would recognise me, especially if I'm with my children. The most recent comments I got was when a football fan tweeted to say that he wished our son had been born stillborn, which was just awful. I don't even think our son was two weeks old then," she added tearfully.
