She explained: “The name launch was a difficult day for me. I disabled Instagram comments. I was very quickly brought back to my feet by how dirty this world can be.

“And I know it’s unusual and unique and it’s not going to be to everyone’s taste, but when we announced it I thought it’s just beautiful, it’s her, she’s Bambi and it’s a beautiful name, wonderful, wonderful.. .
And then, just two seconds after I posted it, I was like, “Oh my god!”
