Former Towie star shared a video which showed the teenager unwrapping the pricey purse
LAUREN Goodger has come under fire from fans after giving her young niece a pricey designer handbag for Christmas.
The Only Way Is Essex star shared a video which showed her niece unwrapping a Fendi purse, with prices starting from around £150.
The TV star uploaded the clip to Instagram showing the teenager smiling as she tore off the wrapping paper of her Christmas present.
Lauren captioned the clip: "Giving my niece #Ellie her first designer bag for Christmas from @childsplayclothing she loved it #Fendi #christmas2016 #presents #niece..."
Ellie looked thrilled with her present, which she held up to the camera.
But Lauren's fans were not as impressed and they flooded the star's Instagram account with comments about the pricey present.
Many insisted children that young should not be treated to designer gifts.
One wrote: "Good to see you're instilling your values into the child...#consumerism.
"You've put it out there so I'm going to say that at her age that little girl should be given toys not 'designer'".
Another added: "Buying a CHILD a Designer Bag!? RIDICULOUS! Looks like you only did it to show off though?
"Why else FILM IT,& put it on here!?..."
One fumed: "Anyone who supports giving a little girl a designer bag, with all its connotations, should consider their own values and moral compass."
