Fans Defend Joseline Hernandez After Critics Blast Her for Looking Good But Dressing Daughter Like a ‘Lil Old Lady’

Former “Love and Hip Hop: Atlanta” star Joseline Hernandez is receiving backlash on her parenting skills once again and this time fans are critiquing how she dresses one-year-old Bonnie Bella.

The reality star took to Instagram on Monday and shared a sweet picture of her baby girl grinning from ear-to-ear. Little Bella was dressed in an over-sized “Moschino” hoodie with a teddy paired with a white skirt, pink ankle socks, and blue strap-on shoes.

Hernandez captioned the image, “To all the babies in the world! Have an amazing day in school 😁😁 From #bonniebella.”

Instagram users gushed over Bella’s adorable outfit and said “she looks so cute.”

However, other fans slammed Hernandez for dressing the one-year-old in “baggy” and “old” clothes while she dresses super-fly.

“Why the hell do you dress her so tacky,” asked one fan.

“This little girl is adorable but her mom doesn’t know how to dress her lol she is a cutie tho,” said another.

“Joseline what does she have on and why you don’t dress like that.”

“Her mother & daddy need they ass whooped she need a stylish.”

Other fans instantly jumped in.

“Well at least she’s not dressing her with tight clothing or dressing her too grown,” said one fan.

“She’s a baby…you forgot?? Wow…smh,” said another fan.

“You are a big fool,” commented one fan.”

“I love that Joseline Letts Her Be A Real Kid,” said a fan.

In the past, the 31-year-old also received a lot of smack about Bella’s hair from fans. Nevertheless, the Internet skewered Hernandez last week for posting a series of provocative photos online and accused her of setting bad example for her daughter. One person even told the star, “Joseline put on some clothes you’re a mother now. Set an example for your daughter.”

Independent journalism doesn't fund itself.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
