Paris Hilton has hit back at "sick" trolls who took aim at her baby son Phoenix as she states that he is perfectly healthy.

Hilton welcomed her first child with husband Carter Reum on January 25, as she joyfully announced it across her various social media platforms. Sharing a heartwarming photo of the newborn's tiny fingers wrapped around hers, Hilton wrote: "You are already loved beyond words" with a blue heart.

In an interview with People, she described becoming a mother as her "dream." Hilton said: "It's always been my dream to be a mother, and I'm so happy that Carter and I found each other. We are so excited to start our family together, and our hearts are exploding with love for our baby boy."

Paris shared some snaps of Phoenix on Friday, and while a lot of the comments were full of praise for the mom and son duo, some vile trolls made their way into the comments.

Without giving the trolls airtime, the comments were about Phoenix's head - but mother Paris has since clapped back at those who took aim at her son.

People took to TikTok to shine a light on the comments, and Paris replied: "There are some sick people in this world. My angel is perfectly healthy. And yes, of course he has been to a doctor, he just has a large brain."

She has since released a larger statement on the matter on X (formerly Twitter), saying: "Living life in the spotlight, comments, are inevitable, but targeting my child, or anyone else's for that matter, is unacceptable. This hurts my heart more deeply than words can describe."

Paris finds herself backed into a corner, as she claims that if she doesn't post images of her baby then people will state that she's a bad mother - but when she does post the photos, she is subjected to cruel trolling.

"I'm a proud working mom and my baby is perfectly healthy, adorable and angelic," Paris went on. "I've dreamt of being a mom for as long as I can remember."

"Phoenix is my world and has been the biggest blessing of my life. Every day with him is a reminder of what truly matters. It's hard to fathom that there are people in the world who would target such innocence."

Paris ended her statement by hoping that people would treat others with more kindness going forward.

Just after giving birth, Hilton shared in an interview with Us Weekly that her priorities have shifted since becoming a mother.

"My baby is my top priority," she said. "All of my priorities have shifted. I am saying no to so many things because I want to be able to spend as much time with [my son] as possible. He's just my little angel."

Hilton also highlighted the importance of cherishing precious moments, citing her sister Nicky Hilton Rothschild's advice. "My sister always says you don't want to miss those moments. All my free time, I'm doing that. And then also my music and my art. I love to paint and cook and just be with my husband and my baby boy."
