Chelsee Healey shames racist trolls who targeted her toddler daughter with sickening slurs

Chelsee Healey has gone public with the racist abuse she's suffered at the hands of sick trolls who branded her daughter, two, a "black monkey".

The Hollyoaks star, 31, took to Twitter to shame the trolls who sent sickening messages about her little girl Coco, who turns three next month.

Sharing a screengrab of a message she received from a racist troll, Chelsee called the slurs aimed at her daughter "disgusting".

The troll's message read: "Right, slut aren't ya? Daughter is a black money."

Chelsee added: "You know what, I get nasty messages all day mostly about me!

"I'm a big girl, I can handle that, but saying something so disgusting about my beautiful, innocent baby upsets me especially when their [there's] nothing you can do to protect them from people's vile words."

She went on to add that she was given the confidence to share her story because of the Black Lives Matter movement.

The actress added: "I want too [sic] post up because of the movement that's happening right now! Racism is real but so is BLM."

Chelsee welcomed Coco in July 2017, but she split from her dad, on/off boyfriend Jack Malloy, shortly after the birth.

They had been together since 2014, but the rocky relationship was dealt a blow when Jack was jailed for 12 months in 2016.

They reconciled after his release, and went on to become parents to Coco but the relationship didn't last.
