It’s only been a matter of hours since Geordie Shore star Marnie Simpson announced her pregnancy, but she’s already receiving criticism.

Many of Marnie’s Instagram followers have slammed the reality TV star for promoting weight loss products while pregnant with her first child.

The 27-year-old is expecting a baby with her boyfriend Casey Johnson and is currently four months pregnant.

However last week, she shared an Instagram photo of herself holding a pack of V24 Gummies which claim to suppress your appetite.

In the caption, Marnie said: ‘V24 Gummies are delicious and when taken with water they suppress your unhealthy cravings. Which is critical to stay on a healthy regime.

‘They contain glucomannan which is clinically proven to help with a healthy weight loss diet, You guys have to try them.’

Perhaps anticipating the backlash, Marnie added: ‘Note to trolls: Positive vibes only.’

Then just yesterday, Marnie posted a video in which she promotes weight loss capsules from Skinny Caffe.

Alongside the video, she wrote: ‘Looking for safe natural program to help you lose weight fast? You need to try @skinnycaffeThermosyn Capsules they’re EFSA Weight Loss Approved and are helping people lose up to 7lbs in 7 days [sic].’

According to The Mirror, Marnie was hit with backlash with one of her followers commenting: ‘Why you promoting weight loss when you’re pregnant,’ while another said: ‘Promoting bullsh**t products she’s clearly not taking because she’s pregnant.’

One other follower reportedly added: ‘Anyone is going to buy the products you promote, you fake … Her life is fake though, at least when I’m pregnant I won’t be fake about it.’

Comments on Marnie’s video have now been turned off.

Marnie announced her pregnancy in OK! magazine and said: ‘I don’t think you’re ever ready until it happens, but we’re so excited. It feels amazing.’
