And now the controversial mum has been slammed as negligent in a recent recipe video.
Taking to social media, Nara, who is currently pregnant with her fourth child, shared her recipe for cookies.
All was going well as she showed the delicious soft-baked cookies until she revealed what she was drinking with them.
Most people like to have a glass of milk with their cookies, and Nara did just that, but this time, with raw milk.
"These hit the spot with some cold raw milk," the mum said as she finished her video, sparking a horrified response from concerned viewers.
The drink has been illegal to buy in the UK for forty years due to dangerous bacteria found in raw dairy products.
One wrote: "Raw milk while pregnant is actually unhinged."
"Raw milk while pregnant is crazy... why is pasteurisation a problem?" added a third.
Meanwhile, a fourth said: "Raw milk for why?? You are taking an enormous risk for no reason."
Viral trad wife Nara Smith pregnant with 4th child aged 23 - as trolls say 'that's insane, as I'm sure the name will be'
The U.S. Food and Drug Administratio said pregnant women run a serious risk of becoming ill drinking raw milk.
Listeria, a germ often found in raw milk can cause miscarriage, or illness, or death of the newborn baby.
"If you are pregnant, drinking raw milk - or eating foods made from raw milk - can harm your baby even if you don't feel sick," they warned.
Nara has gained a massive following on social media due to her 'trad wife' lifestyle.
She's often seen in the kitchen baking extravagant meals from scratch while wearing designer dresses worth thousands of pounds.
She shares Rumble, four, Slim Easy, three, and Whimsy Lou, one, with Lucky, 27 - whom she tied the knot with in 2020
What is raw milk and the dangers?
Most milk goes through pasteurisation before it is consumed.
This is where it is cooked to below boiling point to kill off bacteria and micro-organisms.
However, raw milk is not pasteurised and can be harmful.
As more people drank milk in the 20th Century an increase in milkborne diseases ripped through humans.
Tuberculosis, typhoid, scarlet fever and diphtheria were just a few of the serious illnesses spread through raw milk.
These diseases were virtually eliminated in humans with the implementation of pasteurisation, in combination with improved management practices on dairy farms.
Raw milk can carry dangerous bacteria such as salmonella, e-coli, listeria and campylobacter.
A 2019 Public Health England review finds raw milk responsible for 26 outbreaks of intestinal infectious disease in England and Wales between 1992 and 2017.
These involved 343 people and resulted in 41 hospitalisations. There were no outbreaks between 2003 and 2013, but seven occured between 2014 and 2017.
It's been illegal to sell unpasteurised dairy milk in supermarkets or high street shops in England, Wales and Northern Ireland since 1985 and it's outlawed in Scotland.

Dr. Phil launching new media network of ‘citizen journalists' after his first one goes bankrupt
Celebrity psychologist Dr Phil McGraw is launching a new media network that will provide opportunities for 'citizen journalists' to share their stories, less than two weeks after a similar venture went bankrupt. Envoy Media Co. will include 'live, balanced news, original entertainment programming, and immersive viewer experiences,' according to a press release shared by The Hollywood Reporter. It comes after McGraw's conservative-leaning cable network, Merit Street Media, filed for bankruptcy earlier this month, barely a year after its launch, while also suing its distribution partner, Trinity Broadcasting, for breach of contract. THC reported that Envoy Media will also include library programming and original shows from McGraw and his friend and fellow TV star Steve Harvey, who also collaborated on Merit Street. The release included that the network's app would also 'provide an opportunity for citizen journalists to share news and stories from their communities while seamlessly integrating curated user-generated content on a national scale.' In a statement following the announcement of the new network, McGraw said: 'As always, my commitment and that of the Envoy network team is to focus on real people, facing real challenges, seeking real solutions. 'By talking about things that matter to people who care, presenting facts, encouraging people to think critically, they can make up their own minds. Our disruptive technology will engage Envoy viewers at an unprecedented level in real time.' McGraw's previous attempt at a multi-platform media company came in late 2023, following his successful two-decade run as a popular daytime talk show host. Merit Street Media featured a Dr. Phil primetime program as its flagship show. 'Merit Street Media will be a resource of information and strategies to fight for America and its families, which are under a cultural 'woke' assault as never before," McGraw said in a statement at the time. 'I love this country and I believe family is the backbone of our society. Together we are going to stand strong and fight for the very soul and sanity of America and get things that matter back on track.' However, roughly four months after its official launch in April 2024, Merit Street laid off roughly 40 employees – around one-third of its total staff. In a Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing in the Northern District Court of Texas, Merit Street cited a 'severely strained liquidity position' and the inability to secure additional capital as reasons for the declaration. The subsequent lawsuit against Trinity alleged that the broadcaster 'reneged on its obligations and abused its position as the controlling shareholder of Merit Street,' leaving the channel with over $100 million in debt. 'These failures by TBN were neither unintended nor inadvertent,' the lawsuit read. 'They were a conscious, intentional pattern of choices made with full awareness that the consequence of which was to sabotage and seal the fate of a new but already nationally acclaimed network.'

Sarah Michelle Gellar, 48, has a youthful glow next to husband Freddie Prinze Jr after sharing her diet secrets
Sarah Michelle Geller looked sensational on Monday evening at the Los Angeles premiere of the reboot for I Know What You Did Last Summer. The 48-year-old blonde had on a frilly mini-dress with a cheerful butterfly-inspired pattern that flashed the flesh as she showed off a summer tan and toned figure. The TV veteran added orange pumps and a matching boxy clutch purse that picked up the orange hue in her fancy frock. Her blonde hair was pulled back a bit as curtain bangs framed her famous face while she added whimsical earrings. The Buffy The Vampire Slayer veteran was on the arm of her 49-year-old husband of 23 years, actor Freddie Prinze Jr. They met in 1998. Prinze looked dapper in a navy blue suit as he displayed his silver fox-esque salt-and-pepper hair and goatee. Last year Sarah shared her diet tips as she credited meal preparation. She takes time to grocery shop and set aside exactly what she needs to get through the day. For breakfast she makes an egg that she pairs with avocado toast which provides protein and good fats. 'An avocado toast is a great way to get protein,' she told Eating Well. 'I love to put an egg on top of my avocado toast. And you can put a great burrata, a little cheese, on top for protein. That is certainly No. 1.' For lunch Sarah goes for a Buddha bowl which includes brown rice, chicken, cabbage and cucumbers with soy sauce and honey. Dinner might be a Mediterranean chicken quinoa salad or fish with vegetables. Then there are the workouts. Gellar's fitness routine is varied and includes Pilates, strength training, and hiking. She's been incorporating weight training more recently and enjoys Pilates classes using machines like the Megaformer. She also enjoys hiking with her family and dogs. Additionally, she uses streaming workout services when traveling. The TV veteran added orange pumps and a matching boxy clutch purse that matched the orange in her fancy frock In April she shared the secret to marital success. Apparently the answer has to do with having one's own personal space. The actress who was in Paris for Fashion Week in March, shared the secret when she stopped by the Today studios. She chatted with Jenna and Friends host Jenna Bush Hager and her guest host Tiffany Haddish. 'Separate bathrooms,' she state authoritatively to the astonished hosts. 'That's it? It's that simple?' Hager queried. 'It's that simple,' the Dexter: Original Sin star confirmed. Comedian Tiffany Haddish had a different idea, inspired by the golden age of television. 'See, I was thinking it was like the Lucy and Ricky thing [ from I Love Lucy] where you both had twin beds, and then when y'all want to get together, you push them together, and when you want to be apart, you push them apart,' she suggested. 'I had not thought of that,' the Wolf Pack star admitted, adding, 'that is actually a really good idea.' Geller and Prinze, 49, met on the set of 1999's I Know What You Did Last Summer, which is getting a reboot. The action star revealed on social media in November 2024 that she was with Prinze in Australia for production on the fright flick. A new trailer for the gory thriller was release on Tuesday. Geller's Helen Shivers was killed in the 90s film. Prinze, 49, reprises his role as Ray Bronson and Jennifer Love Hewitt, 46, returns as Julie James. Geller also admitted the long awaited Buffy the Vampire Slayer reboot was also in the works, but said she wasn't allowed to talk about any details. 'We won't do it until we know we're 100-percent ready and we're confident that we are giving you something that the audience is asking for, that's also original in its own right.' The rebooted Buffy will make it to the small screen sometime in 2026. The new I Know What You Did Last Summer debuts in theaters July 18.

I know the real Helena and the truth about her being a ‘good time girl' – Love Island have set her up to look bad
SHE has been cruelly trolled for letting Harry Cooksley walk all over her in the Love Island villa, for 'being open' and even for laughing too much. The reaction has left those close to Helena Ford shocked and saddened, and determined to clear her name. 5 5 5 One person who thinks Helena has been unfairly treated is her close friend and long time hairdresser, who says: 'She's had a rough time in there - the way that people are portraying her on social media, it's just so unfair.' Natalie Clayton, who owns NCWeave in Merseyside, has been doing Helena's hair for the last four years and did it just before she entered the villa. She has explained why people might think Helena is a 'good time girl', after Harry branded her that. She told us: 'I think she knows what Harry is like, and she's never been in a relationship before, and that's what people are forgetting, because she's just, she's just having fun. 'She doesn't take life too seriously. She is one for just having fun and living her best life.' The 29-year-old has been open about the fact she's never had a relationship before and Natalie thinks she's just embracing it all - rather than being bogged down in the details of relationships. 'Because of her job and her lifestyle, I don't think she's just ever thought about settling down yet,' Natalie told us. 'She loves travelling, she loves going out with her friends. So I think she's just never met that right person where she's wanted to settle down with them.' On Love Island Helena has mostly been coupled up with Harry but has gained the reputation of someone who is very flirty with the opposite sex. Bella Rose Hair & Beauty owner Natalie believes that Helena, who travels three hours just to get her extensions there, has been edited to look a certain way. She said: 'I think maybe the clips that have been heard have made it worse because I do think that Shakira has been worse with her than Helena has with Shakira and I don't understand why people can't see that coming across. 'At the end of the day they've just got a similar type and they've both gone for the same person and then she's been portrayed like she keeps going for her men. 'But you can see Helena was shocked at that because she's not even realised and just been like we've got the same type and she was joking about it. 'And then I think Shakira, from what's been heard, she's been talking about Helena a hell of a lot more.' Natalie said her reaction to laugh at so many things is because she isn't a fan of confrontation. 'She just likes to keep herself to herself in her own little bubble and she just wants to be friends with everyone and get on with everyone,' she told us. 'I know people are saying she said this and that, but you can see by the things that she's done, she just doesn't take life seriously.' And Natalie thinks she has what it takes to win the show, telling us: 'I would absolutely love her to win the show because it has been great TV. 'Whether people have liked her or not liked her, I think if she hadn't been in there it could have been very boring!'
