Angie Kent has hit back at online trolls after they labelled her latest Instagram post as an excuse to turn the Australian bushfire crisis into an advert.

The former Gogglebox star’s followers were quick to chastise the star for apparently using the bushfire crisis to spruik Bondi Sands products for financial gain.
“This some f**ked up sh*t that you can turn the fires into an ad for fake tan. SMH,” wrote one angry fan.
“Did you donate your fee from this ad to the fires?” said another.
“You’re promoting sunscreen??!! Gees girl! Talk about being paid for the Instagram post….shame on you, shame shame shame #heartless,” raged another.
However, the Bachelorette star has since defended her post, stating she’d “do anything to raise money for the fires”.
“Not fake tan dolls. It’s sunscreen. I’d do anything to raise money for the fires yes. Seeing negative in a positive situation? Not what we want up in here,” the former Gogglebox star replied.
“How come people can’t make money to live and give their money to the fires? I’m doing both. Everyone has to eat,” she responded to another fan.
“I’m not asking you if you donated an entire pay check to the fires. We all do what we can in times of need and that’s what I’m doing.”
In her latest Instagram offering, the reality TV star posed in a plunging orange swimsuit and denim shorts whilst sitting next to a handful of Bondi Sands products.
“We have been praying for the rain. Our country needs it. So many amazing people, companies, business etc. have donated their time and money to supporting people in need across the nation,” began her caption.
“One of my favourites @bondisands have donated $100k to the @salvosau and @wireswildliferescue and have released products with proceeds going to the cause,” the 29-year-old continued.
“As much as we want the rain we’ve got to be thankful for our glorious sun too!” Angie then urged her fans to visit their local Priceline in order to purchase the products.
