Coco Austin slammed for G-string bikini at water park: ‘Inappropriate’

A famous mum has copped a barrage of criticism for wearing a skimpy G-string bikini while at a water park with her six-year-old daughter.

A famous mum is copping criticism after wearing a G-string bikini to the pool with her six-year-old daughter – but is she really in the wrong?

Coco Austin, who is married to American rapper Ice-T, is currently on holiday in the Bahamas with her husband and their daughter Chanel.

But after sharing a series of poolside snaps at Baha Bay Water Park, the 43-year-old has been accused of dressing “inappropriately” while splashing around with her daughter.

The mum and daughter duo rocked matching pink and blue bikinis on the water park excursion, with one major difference.

While little Chanel’s cossie had regular bottoms, Coco’s featured a skimpy G-string design that flaunted her butt.

But the images, which show other children in the vicinity, have angered other parents who have branded Coco’s bathers “inappropriate”.

“Your bathing suit is soooo NOT appropriate for a water park,” one of Coco’s three million followers wrote.

“So I gotta ask, don’t you ever feel like maybe at a kid-friendly place a G-string is inappropriate? Just curious if you ever feel like that,” another said.

While another wrote: “INAPPROPRIATE for a water park.”

The outrage continued, with others joining the pile-on when Coco posted another series of snaps, explaining that Ice-T had turned into her “paparazzi”.

“It’s disgusting that’s what you think is acceptable to wear around children,” one said.

“Girl put some clothes on when your child is around, smh [shaking my head],” another agreed.

And anther person said: “You’re at a water park in front of lots of kids dressed like that!”

It doesn’t appear Coco broke any water park rules with her skimpy outfit.

According to the Baha Bay Water Park’s website, attendees to the “luxury” attraction are required to adhere to a dress code that states swimsuits, pool attire and similar apparel are all acceptable clothing.

It does not state G-strings are not allowed.

Many of her followers pointed out she wasn’t doing anything wrong, leaping to her defence.

“She’s in a bikini in the Bahamas. Why should she have to adjust her clothing because there are kids?” one wrote.

“She’s in a two-piece, not naked,” another added.

As a third posted: “If you don’t like seeing her a**, then don’t look at it. She’s not hurting anyone.”

The famous mum is sadly no stranger to having her parenting skills criticised by strangers, with Coco and Ice-T copping it for allowing their daughter to use a stroller last week.

A photo taken at the Atlantis Resort on the exotic island showed Chanel looking less than enthusiastic as her parents enjoyed a touch of shopping.

“A stroll through the @atlantisbahamas shops,” Coco captioned her post.

“Chanel is so over it unless there’s something cool to see. Her face transitions instantly.”

But fans were not impressed by the pictures, as they narrowed in on the fact that Chanel was still using a stroller well into her childhood.

“I know she may be your last baby but you have to let her grow up. If anything, a wagon is more her age.

“I have a six-year-old smaller than her and she hasn’t been in a stroller in years. I would hate for your sweet baby to get bullied or something,” one parent wrote.

A second agreed and added a facepalm emoji: “In a stroller.”

“Isn’t she like six years old! Should she be out of a stroller by now?” a third wrote.

Queensland mum Sophie Guidolin endured similar backlash for wearing a bikini while posing for a photo with her son. Picture: Instagram

Recently Queensland mum Sophie Guidolin endured a similar backlash when she shared a bikini photo posing alongside her son Kai, 15 in April.

The 32-year-old mother-of-four, who is the founder of leading online health and fitness program The Bod, shared a photo of herself wearing a green leopard print bikini while hugging the teen.

However, some of her half a million followers had a “problem” with the photo saying it was “too sexualised”.

Sophie, who also has six-year-old twins as well another son aged 14, hit back, imploring people “stop sexualising female bodies”.
