Charlotte Dawson praised for making mums feel 'so normal' posing in underwear with stretchmarks on show

Praise has been pouring in for new mum Charlotte Dawson as she proudly displayed her stretchmarks in her underwear.

A smiling Charlotte, 28, looked stunning as she posed for the camera modelling a green underwear set paired with slippers.

"Feeling bank holiday fabulous/flabulous," the Manchester model and reality TV star captioned the snap shared with her 1.2 million Instagram followers.

Fellow mums thanked down-to-earth Charlotte, who welcomed baby boy Noah in January with her fiance Matt Sarsfield, for sharing such a relatable image.

"Yes gal my stretch marks were the same pet xxxx" one follower told her.

"This makes me feel so normal," said another.

"You have no idea how many women you'll help by posting this. Amazing and you look fab," commented another fan.

And another wrote to Charlotte, the daughter of the late Collyhurst comedian Les Dawson: "You really are a real woman! Love it."

As the heart-warming comments racked up, another mum told her: "You are absolutely gorgeous! Thank you so much for sharing your post-baby body and helping us fellow mummies to feel beautiful too."

Another told her: "I absolutely admire you, thank you for being you."

"I wish more people like you did more posts like this and took over social media more than photoshopped pictures.

"Normal bodies need to be shared more," said another fan.

"Thank you, you are an inspiration to all women and you look incredible, well done, I wish I had the confidence to be as proud as you xxx"

Another penned: "There is nothing more true and perfect in the public eye than you are!!

"People need to take a leaf out of your book then maybe this world would be a nicer and more happier place!! xx"

And another mum told Charlotte: "You look like me."

Charlotte's celebrity pals also praised her post.

The Only Way Is Essex star Amy Childs said: "You look beautiful."

Former I'm A Celebrity queen of the jungle Vicky Pattison said: "Gorgeous girl."

And The Real Housewives of Cheshire star Tanya Bardsley said: "Beautiful inside and out."

Charlotte is regularly seen embracing her 'beltin belleh' in comical videos.

Last month she Instagrammed about trying bikinis on and having 'a giggle shaking me bank holiday belleh.'

And, displaying her stretchmarks in another underwear shoot, she said she was 'embracing my tiger chuffin stripes.'
