Shutting down her haters, the Instagram influencer wrote: 'Apparently some silly mug is posting me on Twitter and it's going viral about me bleaching my skin.
"Omg I was on holiday before BB so obviously I'll be darker.'
She then shared a picture of herself as a child and wrote: 'So this is me, a spoilt brat when I was young with my dad.

Heartbreaking moment Diogo Jota jokes about the pressures of becoming a new dad as he says 'each day is a new day'
Diogo Jota joked about the pressures of becoming a new father in a heartbreaking clip and said 'each day is a new day' before his death on Thursday. The Liverpool star was travelling in a car in northern Spain with his brother Andre, 26, also a footballer, when it came off the road and erupted into flames. Both brothers were killed in the crash on the A-52 in the province of Zamora, with tributes pouring in from around the world. Jota's death tragically came just two weeks after he married his childhood sweetheart and mother of his three children, Rute Cardoso, in Porto. The couple had three children - son Dinis, four, son Duarte, three and a daughter who is just nine months old. Now heartbreaking footage has emerged showing Jota joking with teammate Joe Gomez about the joy and pitfalls of becoming a new parent, following the birth of his first child in 2021. As part of an initiative by Liverpool FC with business Joie Baby to give each newborn child at Liverpool Women's Hospital a gift for an entire month, the pair spoke to a midwife and shared stories of their children's births. Describing the moment he first found out he would become a father, the Liverpool player said: 'It was a bit of a shock at first. It was Covid's fault.' He told how the birth was a special experience, saying: 'You always think about that moment, but when it actually happens, I can't describe the feelings. 'One of the midwives offered me to cut the cord but I couldn't do it. I couldn't I'm too sensitive. When asked what advice he would give any teammates who became new parents, Jota quipped: 'If he comes to me I'll send them to Joe because he's more experienced!' But he added: 'Patience is the key, I would say... Each day is a new day.' Jota described himself as the luckiest man in the world in an interview released on Wednesday after he married his wife less than two weeks ago in Portugal. The couple frequently posted photos of their family online, seeming to have their whole lives ahead of them. Earlier this week, Jota sent Cardoso what proved to be a final public message on Instagram after his wife wrote 'my dream came true' following their wedding. In response, he wrote: 'But I'm the lucky one'. His death was confirmed by Pedro Proenca, head of the Portuguese Football Federation. Mr Proenca said in a statement: 'The Portuguese Football Federation and all of Portuguese football are completely devastated by the deaths of Diogo Jota and André Silva, this morning, in Spain. 'Much more than an amazing player, with almost 50 internationalizations for the National A Team, Diogo Jota was an extraordinary person, respected by all teammates and opponents, someone with an infectious joy and a reference in the community itself. 'On my behalf, and on behalf of the Portuguese Football Federation, I express my deepest condolences to the family and friends of Diogo and André Silva, as well as Liverpool FC and FC Penafiel, the clubs where, respectively, lined up the players. 'The Portuguese Football Federation has already asked UEFA for a minute's silence, this Thursday, before the match of our national team with Spain, in the women's European Championship. 'Lost to two champs. The disappearance of Diogo and Andre Silva represent irreparable losses for Portuguese football and we will do everything to, daily, honor their legacy'. Liverpool has cancelled the phased return of players for pre-season training following the tragedy. The first group of Arne Slot's squad were scheduled to attend the club's AXA training complex on Friday for the opening round of physical tests after their summer break. However, it is understood that has been postponed as the club deals with the aftermath of the shocking tragedy in the early hours of Thursday. Mourners gathered at a wake in Portugal on Friday morning, ahead of the brothers' funeral at the Igreja Matriz de Gondomar in Sao Cosme at 10am on Saturday.

Diogo Jota's loving relationship with ‘number one fan' Rute Cardoso from meeting at school to heartbreaking wedding post
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) TOGETHER since their teens, Diogo Jota and new wife Rute Cardoso chased a footballing dream. When his burgeoning career in their native Portugal resulted in a move to Spanish giants Atletico Madrid, she described herself as his 'best friend' and 'number one fan'. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 6 Diogo Jota and Rute Cardoso married on June 22 Credit: Not known, clear with picture desk 6 The couple were together for 13 years 6 They were joined at the ceremony by their three children 6 Rute supported Jota from an early age Credit: Instagram 6 Their youngest child was born in December Credit: Instagram 6 The pair were childhood sweethearts Credit: Instagram It was a shared ambition that would take them back to home town club Porto and then Wolverhampton Wanderers before his trophy-laden glory years at Liverpool's Anfield. A couple who met at school aged 13, their marriage a mere 11 days ago sealed a romance that had already produced three cherubic children. Joyous wedding photographs, showing a young family on life's great journey, are now heartbreaking to look at. Sons Dinis, four, and Duarte, two, are in the same dark blue jackets, cream waistcoats and blue ties as their footballer father. A baby girl, not named publicly, wears a miniature tiara and ivory-coloured gown to match her mother. Now Ruta is a widow at 28. The children lost both a father and an uncle in the terrible early hours crash on a lonely Spanish motorway. Just 20 hours earlier, Diogo and Rute wrote on social media that their wedding was a 'day we will never forget'. Under one photo, she wrote, 'My dream came true' — to which Diogo had replied: 'But I'm the lucky one.' Social media images show family life including trips to Lapland and Sardinia, photos with pet beagles and in red strips of Liverpool on the pitch at Anfield and at Wembley. It was a love forged in Portugal's beautiful second city Porto where forward Jota was born in December 1996. His birth name was Diogo José Teixeira da Silva. As a promising, pacey young footballer he dropped his surname and used Jota which is the local pronunciation of 'J'. 'Heartbroken' Ronaldo leads tributes to Diogo Jota as football mourns Liverpool & Portugal star Soon, his talents outgrew his local club Gondomar and, aged 16, he moved to lower league club Pacos de Ferreira. Scout Ivo Rodrigues remembers watching Diogo in 2013. He said: 'My eyes were drawn to him like a magnet. He was the youngest on the pitch but I saw he was going to be a star. He could do things that other ones could not.' But attempts by Ivo to sign him for Guimaraes proved fruitless. The year before, an Instagram image showed him with Rute in hoodies and jeans acting like typical teenagers. In 2015, Jota's career might have stalled before it really began. Pre-season tests revealed a heart problem. Showing maturity beyond his years, he wrote: 'I knew it could mean quitting football, but I didn't believe for a second it was going to happen.' A natural goalscorer, he would earn selection for Portugal's international youth teams and soon the big time beckoned. He was snapped up by Spanish giants Atletico Madrid in 2016 when he was 19. Rute wrote of his move: 'I'm anxious. Diogo only left this week, but I already miss him. We've been dating for four years and . . . it makes sense to follow him. In addition to being his girlfriend and best friend, I'm his number one fan, I want to be there.' However, Diogo would never play for the Atletico first team and a month after joining went out on loan to Portuguese giants Porto. At the time, his brother Andre Silva, 25 — also killed in yesterday's fireball crash — was with Porto's youth set-up. Scoring eight goals in 27 appearances, Diogo's performances earned him another loan move the next season — this time to England with Wolves, then in the Championship. His 17 league goals helped Wolves win promotion to the Premier League and secured a permanent move for a reported £12million. Wolves finished seventh the next season as they qualified for the Europa League — a competition in which Diogo bagged an 11-minute hat-trick against Turkish side Besiktas after coming on as a sub. In now poignant comments, he said after that game: 'It makes me proud. It's a story to tell my grandkids when I get old.' He and Rute were able to enjoy the fruits of his success. Instagram photos she posted show her posing on his shoulders at Disneyland Paris and sight-seeing at the London Eye. Captioning an image of them together on a sun-kissed beach in the Maldives, she wrote: 'And suddenly you see your entire future in one person.' In September 2020, Liverpool snapped Diogo up for £45million. He and Rute had made it to one of world football's greatest clubs in the richest and most glamorous league. Then-Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp said of Diogo: 'He has the speed, he can combine with other players, can defend, can press. It gives us real options for different systems. 'He's 23, still far away from being kind of a finished article — he has so much potential.' A player blessed with the knack of scoring vital goals, he soon became a Kop favourite. A terrace chant for him, including a reference to Portuguese great Luis Figo, went: 'He's a lad from Portugal, better than Figo don't you know, oh his name is Diogo!' In the 2021-22 season, he scored 21 in 55 games — part of an impressive 65 goals in 182 appearances for Liverpool. Hampered by injuries last season, his final goal for Liverpool showed just what a classy player he was. In the Merseyside derby, he slalomed past Everton defenders in a packed box before slotting the ball home. His final match was for Portugal — his 49th cap — a victory over Spain to win the Uefa Nations League. The close season gave him a chance to marry Rute. Beneath a photo of the elegant couple at the altar, the new bride wrote on social media: 'Yes to forever.' Diogo once described himself as 'a small guy that came from Gondomar, where I had this dream'. With Rute at his side, he perhaps achieved more than he possibly imagined. A tragedy that, at 28, this supremely talented player and dearly loved husband and dad had so much more to give.

Robbie Williams puts Noel Gallagher feud aside as he sends message to Oasis
The Gallagher brothers are sending the UK back to the 90s ahead of their reunion tour as pop legends Robbie Williams and the Spice girls come out to support the reunion tour Oasis fever is spreading around the UK once again as the hype builds before the Gallagher brothers finally take to the stage together later today. Having not graced the same stage in more than 15 years, the 75,000 fans lucky enough to get a ticket for Cardiff's Principality Stadium will be expecting big things – especially those who forked out a hefty sum through a resale who were hit with dynamic pricing hikes. Although Liam and Noel are probably the last musicians you'd thought would get nervous, that hasn't stopped some of the biggest artists of the prime Britpop era from reaching out to the band wishing them luck on the worldwide tour. Two icons leading the floods of celeb support are Robbie Williams and The Spice Girls. The former Take That star has revealed a fake blue plaque style graphic on Berwick Street in London's Soho, the setting for the band's iconic (What's The Story) Morning Glory? album cover. Posting to his Instagram earlier today, the plaque says: " Robbie Williams - heard it, saw it, loved it, lived it, wanted it and snorted it ... That's The Story." Robbie posted the image alongside a snap of two blurred out faces stood down the famous street to recreate the iconic album cover – this time the duo were in black and red tracksuits. As he shared the snaps, Robbie wished the brothers well as he wrote in the caption "GOOD LUCK TONIGHT LADS @oasis". Although today's stunt wasn't the first time the singer has spoken about the brother's tour. In an interview last year with NME, Robbie added: 'The soap opera alone will either be exciting and or ghoulish to watch. As for the shows? They're gonna be incredible, off-the-scale special.' The Rock DJ singer was seemingly inspired to bury the hatchet like the Gallagher brothers after his long-running feud with Noel after a comment where he referred to Robbie as "the fat dancer from Take That', which led to the pop star challenging Liam to a scrap during the Brits. Britpop fever seems to be coming back for a second round, with Williams' upcoming album, ' Britpop ' set to pay homage to the golden era of British music. But it's not just Robbie who's wishing the brothers luck ahead of tonight's gig with girl group superstars the Spice Girls also posting to Instagram. Reposting the classic 1997 Brit awards moment where Mel C shouted on stage "I just wanna say, Liam, come and have a go if you think you're hard enough!" – writing on top of the clip, the band's official Instagram account teased: "Still waiting @liamgallagher. Good luck with the tour boys." The boys are in for a jam-packed six months, with the tour taking them everywhere from Mexico City to Tokyo, although perhaps their most anticipated gig will be their third date as they return to Manchester in front of a sell-out crowd at Heaton Park.
