The halterneck triangle two-piece featured a gold ring in the middle, and came in sizes from three to four years old.

"I can't understand why you'd want to put your young child in a bikini, it's so wrong IMO," one person had written on a previous TikTok video.

With Courtney adding: "It gets worse!"

"Smallest size was three to four years," Courtney added in the caption, alongside a green-faced vomiting emoji.

And people were quick to comment on the video, with one writing: "No no no absolutely no need!"

"Nothing I hate more than seeing little girls in bikinis," another added.

"No, nope and not a cat in hell's chance," a third commented.

"That’s outrageous!!" someone else said.

"No chance!" another wrote.

"The only two piece fine for kids is tankinis," someone else argued.

"My daughter is 10 and a half and I still don’t let her wear bikinis," another revealed.

As someone else said: "My child will neverrrr wear a bikini."

"See I get this with belly top as well, no way, find it weird," another agreed.

"No this is so real," someone else wrote.

"I see little bandeau tops for toddlers, like no!"

"Absolutely not," Courtney replied.

"I walked in Primark for a swim suit for my 3 year old and was gobsmacked at the bikinis," another raged.

"I bought the Stacey Solomon costume that has fabric to the knees, sleeves and a collar.

"Who the f is buying bikinis for babies and toddlers?"

However, others insisted there's nothing wrong with children wearing bikinis.

"I always wore bikinis as a kid," one wrote.

"It’s only weird if you make it!"

"I wore bikinis at 4 on holiday," another added.

"I’m so torn, I hate crop tops and kids wearing adult clothes, sports bras the lot think it’s gross," a third said, before writing: "But a little bikini is so cute!"

"I come from Greece and all kids wear bikinis or are naked when going swimming," someone else commented.
