MTV’s Farrah Abraham slammed over selfie

Reality TV star Farrah Abraham has received backlash after putting up an Instagram picture that appeared to show her 7-year-old daughter drinking a weight-loss tea.
The post-Halloween selfie posted on Nov. 1 showed the 25-year-old star of MTV’s “Teen Mom” holding a packet of a tea she promotes next to her daughter, who appears to be drinking from a cup. In the caption she noted it was teatime for the mother and daughter “after all that candy.”
The post was quickly met with criticism from commenters. Many derided her daughter for what appeared to be a weight loss drink.
Abraham later said the picture isn’t what it looks like. She tells Us Weekly that her daughter had strawberry milk in the cup, but wanted “to take a pic like that.”
Abraham received public attention after being cast in the reality television series 16 and Pregnant in 2009, which documented the pregnancies and first months of motherhood for several young women. Later that year she was cast in the spin-off series Teen Mom, and appeared in each of its four seasons until its conclusion in 2012.
Her father is of Syrian and Italian descent, and her mother is of Danish and Sicilian ancestry
