Halle Berry hits back after she's trolled for letting son, six, wear high heels

Halle Berry has hit back after she was viciously trolled for letting her son, six, wear high heels.

The Hollywood actress shared a video of her little boy Maceo-Robert dancing around wearing a pair of her shoes as they tried to keep themselves amused during lockdown.

Halle, 53, captioned the post: "Quarantine Day 12."

She was bombarded with cruel comments, including a message from one troll who questioned her child's gender, writing: "
Is this your daughter or son?"

Halle responded: "Well it’s a he and he is having a ball. Tryna cope the best he can. Laughter helps a lot right now!"

Another added: "clearly he's not supposed to be in heels," and one more warned the youngster could end up with "broken bones".

However, Halle hit back insisting the family were just trying to have a laugh while stuck indoors.

She wrote: "Harmless fun. Tryna survive right now. You feel me?...Being shut in gets more comical everyday."

She added; "No broken bones ta-day. Thank God. But this quarantine is Real REAL !"

The Monster's Ball star the added: "It’s tight on these kids right now. Let’s have a laugh and some compassion yawl."

Many fans backed Halle and revealed their own kids also played dress-up.

Another joked that families in isolation across the world are collectively "losing it" during social distancing and Halle responded, "Yes we are.!!!!!"

Halle, who is also mum to daughter Nahla, 12, has previously insisted she wants to keep her kids out of the spotlight and never shows their faces on social media.

She told America's Today show: "I just don’t want to plaster them all over the internet.

"That just doesn’t feel right for me. They’re gonna do that soon enough. That’s gonna be their life when they grow up, and they will choose when that starts.

"I’ve fought really hard to protect their privacy, and I just want them to have their life and have it be theirs."
