Lewis Hamilton has been slammed for publicly shaming his nephew over wearing a princess dress.
On Christmas Day, the Formula One champ took to his Instagram story, posting a video of his nephew dressed in a princess costume.
“I’m so sad right now. Look at my nephew,” Lewis says to the camera, before asking his nephew, “Why are you wearing a princess dress? Is this what you got for Christmas? Why did you ask for a princess dress for Christmas? Boys don’t wear princess dresses.”
Lewis has since deleted the video, but not before it started circulating on Twitter. See how people are reacting below:

Lewis Hamilton likes to shout in the faces of kids to make them feel uncomfortable when they express themselves differently.

This is horrible. Children should feel safe to be themselves around family, not attacked for it. Lewis Hamilton might want to spend some time on that private jet thinking about his fragile masculinity. https://t.co/a1Iahn0ARI

The fact that’s not even Lewis Hamilton’s own child is spinning me. If you put my child on your insta story to humiliate them it would be lights out
