Celebrity chef Gino D'Acampo has hit back at haters who criticise him for kissing his daughter on the lips.
The This Morning chef posted a snap to Instagram of him giving his eight-year-old daughter Mia a kiss on the lips, calling out 'all the haters out there'.
The grid post shows Gino kissing his daughter on the lips, while a second pic shows the father and daughter laughing.
He captioned the post:
'To all the haters out there……yes I still kiss my principessa on the lips, get over it and get a life 😎….. GDx.'
But although Gino fully expected a controversial reaction to his post, many commenters were supportive.
TV presenter.Fearne Cotton responded with three heart eyes emojis, while Gino's son Rocco, 17, also responded with two hearts.
Others wrote that, they too, saw nothing wrong with the kiss.
One wrote:
'Anyone who sees this as anything other than the love between a father & daughter is what’s wrong and the issue. if you’re sexualising this you’re not well😅.'
Meanwhile, another wrote:
'Anyone who says it's wrong to kiss your child on the lips says more about them 🤔 Beautiful picture & a beautiful family 👪 ❤️.'
And a third commented:
'Blooming Nora, please tell me this is a joke?
My son is 20 and I still kiss and cuddle him! 😂❤️.'
'People are too uptight these days. Love your precious bond! ❤️,' said another.
Gino's not the only celeb parent to kiss their child on the lips and spark a debate among parents.

He'd previously been trolled over it being 'weird' and 'wrong' to kiss your children on the lips but the football star continues to proudly share images of himself kissing Harper, now 10.
