On Tuesday morning, Elsa Hosk shared a snap of herself completely naked while cradling seven-month-old daughter Tuulikki Joan Daly in her arms for a series of Instagram pictures.
And soon after sharing the mommy and me snaps, her comments section was flooded by Internet mom shamers who criticized her for sharing a nude photo of her child – some even calling it ‘child pornography.’
Elsa, 32, hit back at the critics with a scathing response shared to her Instagram stories: ‘If you think it’s porn or a “thirst trap” shame on you, not shame on me.’

The Swedish-born supermodel reposted a comment someone wrote beneath the nude images, where they had claimed to have reported the image ‘for the baby’s safety and yours.’
The troll continued: ‘You know you can get in serious trouble for posting child pornography right? I know you’re a new mom but this is like basic knowledge.’
Elsa responded denying that it was child pornography and called it a ‘normal thing’ that ‘happens everyday’ : ‘And if I choose to post that, that’s my choice. If some sick person on the internet thinks it’s porn that’s that persons problem not mine.’
The former Victoria’s Secret star further explained: ‘I refuse to live my life according to or in fear of sick people on the internet. I don’t live in that fear…’

The star went on to say that she loves being naked with her daughter because the skin to skin contact makes their bond even stronger, helping them connect.
‘Being naked with my baby is the most beautiful and my most favorite thing.’
Elsa said that growing up in Sweden she was ‘naked all the time’ including at the beach, home, and in public, which ‘was so natural to us.’
The model said that in her country they were not taught that your body was ‘something you had to hide away in fear of what strangers might think.’

This type of view of the nude body is what she thinks ‘created a very healthy relationship to nudity and to my own body.’
Adding that nakedness is part of every day life ‘if you have a baby.’
The trio of photos that caused the uproar among the comments were taken by her longtime boyfriend Tom Daly.
‘This photo was a beautiful moment captured by my boyfriend. If you think it’s porn or a “thirst trap” shame on you, not shame on me.’

She closed it out by saying she respects people’s choice with what they do with their bodies, what they choose to post or not post.
‘Don’t worry about the safety of my baby, she is right where she belongs, literally in my naked arms.’
The trio of images featured the stunning views of New York City along with the caption: ‘Let me tell you about the city where I fell in love with your dad…’
In addition to the shot of her cradling Tuulikki, a second picture shows them on the bed looking at the views of the city.
The final image shared featured Elsa lounging on the bed with her daughter playing besides her, the cityscape now off to the side.
Elsa welcomed Tuulikki on February 11, 2021 with Tom, whom she began dating in 2015.
She announced the birth with a sweet snap of the family of three adding in an explanation for the name: ‘2.11.21 Happiest day of my life meeting you. Proudest moment in my life giving birth to you. Named after two strong women, my mom and my grandma-in-law, you came into this world like super-woman with your fist next to your face.’

Elsa revealed her pregnancy news in September 2020 with a series of snaps taken by photographer Sante D’Orazio.
She wrote: ‘Been keeping this angel in my belly a secret for a while. Feeling beyond excited and lucky to be having a baby and begin the next chapter of life with the man of my dreams!!!!’
