Lily Allen leaves Twitter after vile abuse about her stillborn baby

Singer and mum-of-two Lily Allen has told fans that she is taking a break from Twitter after being subjected to a torrent of abuse about her stillborn baby and mental health.

Trolls turned on Allen (31) after she tweeted about the prejudice faced by immigrants and Muslims. The abusive tweets led to the Smile singer revealing that she has ongoing mental health issues as a result of losing her son six months into her pregnancy.
