Liz Hurley has been accused of exploiting her five-year-old son Damian.
The actress and model has caused outrage after asking Damian to model a neon pink bikini for a photoshoot. One shot was placed on Liz's website to promote her swimwear range for kids, but it has since been removed.
A source told the News of the World: "It's an outrage Liz made her son do this. He's not old enough to make that sort of decision. Imagine the teasing he could suffer at school. Why would any parent do this to their child?
"Liz suggested Damian pose in the bikini. Other people were uncomfortable with it but she insisted."
