Charlotte Crosby has hit back at a troll who claimed she was she was showing support for the Black Lives Matter movement “for popularity” following her latest Instagram post.

The former Geordie Shore star shared an image which included the quote, “Silence is violence,” and asked her followers, “Does any1 no when or where the peaceful protests are in the north east?!”

While many fans praised Charlotte for her post and responded with details of protests, she also came under fire from some followers.

“Don’t bother… I don’t understand all you celebs trying to get involved for popularity! It’s a farce, the whole thing is a farce,” wrote one, while another branded her “a sheep”.
