But on Wednesday, Kate Upton, 27, took to Instagram to ‘clarify’ the comments published in Editorialist.

Alongside a photo showing her breastfeeding her daughter, Upton wrote: ‘I tried to push myself early to get back to the gym, eat perfectly and try to achieve this alleged “snap back”. But, after realizing how ridiculous these pressures are I quickly gave myself some slack and lived in the moment as a new mother.’

The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit cover girl went on: ‘I realized quickly that between breastfeeding, healing, little-to-no sleep, off-the-charts hormone changes and experiencing everything for the first time that those weight-loss pressures are extremely unnecessary, and I decided to turn my energy towards my family.’

She then concluded: ‘My energy was drained but my heart was extremely full, and I decided to not let others’ opinions and expectations get in the way of my own personal timeline. In my opinion, enjoy the moments with your new baby and growing family, allow your body time to heal and make sure to go at your own pace.’
