Louise Thompson SLAMMED for posting a snap from the Maldives alongside Remembrance Day caption

Louise Thompson has been slammed by fans for using a snap of her holiday in the Maldives to commemorate Remembrance Day.

The former Made In Chelsea star, 30, was criticised after posting a snap of herself on the beach accompanied by an excerpt of Laurence Binyon’s 1914 poem, For The Fallen.

It read: ‘They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old. Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.

‘At the going down of the sun and in the morning. We will remember them.’

She added: ‘Thanks for sacrificing so much for our freedom.’ 

While many celebrities opted to share images of the poppy – the symbol of the annual Remembrance campaign – in her photo Louise posed in a black playsuit on the beach, with a straw bag emblazoned with ‘Happy days’ placed behind her.

This ignited fury among fans with one writing: ‘Glad to see you changed the caption. Completely inappropriate and disrespectful.’

Another typed: ‘I’m a fan but not right sentiment’ while a third wrote: ‘If she felt it was appropriate why did she delete it?.’   

Amid the backlash, Louise then changed the caption to a simple butterfly emoticon.  

Some followers supported Louise, with one writing: ‘I think the caption and sentiment behind it is she has the freedom to travel and live the life she wants too because of the sacrifices made by the war heroes. 

‘If she wants to put a pic on of her holiday then why not? It’s remembrance Sunday, people can remember, reflect etc how ever they like or indeed choose not to! Social media comments exhaust me at times!’

Another wrote: ‘Well tbh at least Louise Thompson is posting something about remembrance and acknowledging it. There are a lot of influencers her age who are not even recognising it.’

Louise was among a host of celebrities – including David and Victoria Beckham, Tamara Ecclestone and Martine McCutcheon – to pay tribute to the war dead on Sunday. 

Louise recently took to her Stories and showcased her incredible physique after getting ‘distracted’ by her ripped body while discussing her business. 

Explaining the definition in her physique, Louise wrote: ‘Been active and following macros.’

The reality star revealed she was surprised she was looking so good after being ‘greedy’ with her food over the past two months. 

She wrote: ‘I was videoing for a reason but got distracted when I realised by bod doesn’t look too bad, when I’ve been very greedy for pretty much all of August and September.’
