Towie star Samantha Faiers has been slammed on social media for allegedly dressing her daughter in real fur.

The TV personality, 27, shared a family snap on Instagram of herself with her two children Paul, two, and Rosie, one at Port Lympne Safari Park and Hotel in Hythe.

The kids were wrapped up warm, with Rosie sporting a jacket with a fur hood, and a hat with a fur PomPom, yesterday.

In Samantha's caption, she said it was "faux fur" and wrote: "Having such a wonderful time at Port Lympne Park. Today we fed a wallaby and Rosie The Rhino.

"Such an amazing experience. Can't wait for tomorrow's adventures. Rosie wearing #fauxfur."

But baby and children's clothing brand, Petits Amours Clothing, later shared the photo and said: "It's real fur."

The £37.50 jacket and £19 hat are available on the brand's website, which states they are "100% natural fur".

It's the second post this week which critics claim show her daughter wearing real fur.

One critic said: "People need to be aware Sam Faiers is falsely advertising clothes that she is putting her children in as faux fur, when they are actually real fur.

"Mate, how can you take your kids to go see animals whilst wearing one?! Madness..." Keleighchick

"This is clearly morally wrong, and over the past three days Sam Faiers has done this twice.

"Surely this shouldn't be allowed. People wanting to copy that look will be unknowingly buying and contributing to the fur industry from what Sam is advertising."

The family were staying at the zoo when the photo was taken.

Dozens of Samantha's followers commented that the hat and jacket were "beautiful" and "adorable", and questioned where they could buy them from.

But one commenter, Keleighchick, wrote: "Mate, how can you take your kids to go see animals whilst wearing one?! Madness."

And another, called Alysha, added: "They are even lying about it being faux now, what a joke."

The family photo at Port Lympne follows a previous photo Samantha shared of Rosie on Tuesday.

The previous snap shows her daughter sat on a staircase wearing a fluffy Mongolian fur vest jacket, costing £99, and an Angora fur PomPom hat, costing £35, both from Mi Loves.

And many of her followers were "shocked" and "disappointed" with the photo, with some even unfollowing the star.

Gillygags commented: "Shocking what happens to poor animals (tortured and skinned alive) to produce a little PomPom for a baby’s hat.

"I’m astounded there’s still a market for these unnecessary accessories, especially in our mild climate."

"They are even lying about it being faux now, what a joke..." Alysha

Rachel Phillips wrote: "Someone needs to make a petition to stop these breeding farms from even happening.

"Celebrities have more authority than us to help put a stop to this but instead they are for it. Disappointed."

Louise Burnsey posted: "So there's one less raccoon in the world, cheers Samantha Faiers for helping to promote to kill animals, and thinking it's okay."

And Emma Davies added: "I’m honestly so sick of these so-called celebs. Self-important selfish idiots, how can they be so ignorant to this cruelty."

Meanwhile, Zoe O'Brien simply wrote: "Oh no Samantha Faiers, not you too. I thought you had better morals than this. Another unfollow from me."

Samantha Faiers' spokesperson has been approached for comment.
