Giving birth to your first baby should be a joyful time for any new mum, but Rolling in The Deep singer Adele has been targeted by sick internet trolls who have threatened to harm her newborn.
The trolls began throwing abuse at Adele moments after the birth of her baby boy was confirmed on Saturday.
One user Vanessa Bieber told her 4,000 Twitter followers: “Aw Adele gave birth to a baby. Is it fat and handicapped lol? Just murder it already lol.”

More of the abusers suggested that Adele would have inspiration for another heartbreaking album if her baby was to die.
Another troll discussed Adele’s news and wrote: “Adele was pregnant? I thought she was fat.”
According to The Sun, Siobhan Freegard of parenting website Netmums said: “What’s wrong with these people? This deliberate bile is disgusting.”
Adele and her boyfriend Simon Konecki welcomed their tot into the world on Friday.
A source close to the couple said: “Adele and Simon are ecstatic at their new arrival. She was over the moon that they were expecting their first child together.”
