Helen George has issued a defiant response to cruel critics after they attack her for being pregnant while filming the new series of CAll The Midwife.
Helen, who stars as Trixie Franklin in the much loved BBC drama, is in her much loved role for its 11th run but, on Sunday night, had to defend herself after some viewers took exception to the fact she was clearly pregnant on screen, while her character isn't with child.
After seeing some of the horrendous comments, Helen, who competed on Strictly in 2015, took to Twitter to post: "I’ve seen too many ridiculous comments about my pregnancy whilst filming @CallTheMidwife1 ( also thank you for the lovely comments!)"
