Kelly, mother of five, from West London, said the mirror She was trolled for not teaching daughter Skye about birth control.

She insists she spoke to Skye about the birds and the bees – but their girl was not sexually active at the time.

“I won’t worry about what they say, they don’t know me.

“I’m proud of myself and the mother that I am. You are not the one raising my child, I am.”

Kelly added: “Skye is very mature for her age and she’s done amazingly well. She continued to go to school while I took care of Bailey.

“She got her GCSEs and hair and beauty credentials, she’s doing really well on Tik Tok now and has thousands of followers.”

With Bailey due to start school in September, Skye now plans to learn to drive so she can become a caregiver for disabled children.

Kelly was just 29 when she found out she was going to be a nan.
