Blue’s representative confirmed the birth to Us Weekly on August 30. Her announcement carried the caption: “And then there were 1058 of us.” Earlier, she had claimed she became pregnant after a “breeding mission” involving 400 men.
Why did Joy Morrissey contact the NSPCC?
Joy Morrissey, who became Shadow Minister for Women and Equalities on September 7, wrote to the NSPCC three days later to raise what she called “serious safeguarding concerns.”
“Children are not adults. They must never be involved in pornography, used to promote adult entertainment, or absorbed into a parent’s sexualised commercial brand,” Morrissey wrote.
“Even the suggestion that a child may be placed in such circumstances is deeply disturbing.”
She added that children must be protected from exposure to pornography and other sexualised material. Her objection was not limited to whether the baby appeared in explicit content. It focused on using a child in promotional material connected to an adult entertainment business.
Morrissey’s intervention arrived only days into her new shadow cabinet role. Blue, predictably, did not interpret the timing as a coincidence.
How has Bonnie Blue responded?
Blue told The Tab that her child “will never be in 18+ content” and argued that discussing adult plans while holding a baby did not mean the child would be present when those plans happened.
“If you say you’re going clubbing tonight whilst holding a baby, that does not mean you’ll be taking the baby clubbing,” she said.
Responding directly to Morrissey, Blue added: “Oh, are the Conservatives still going? Bless her. I suppose name-dropping me is one way of trying to stay relevant.”
She said her baby was “loved, protected and incredibly well looked after” and insisted she understood where her public persona ended and motherhood began. Blue also accused Morrissey of using already stretched safeguarding services for political attention, potentially drawing resources away from children who genuinely need help.
Before giving birth, Blue told Us Weekly that pregnancy could be sexualised because it concerned her body, but said she intended to maintain “a very strict line” once the baby arrived. The latest footage has tested how visible that line actually is.
Is her C-section claim medically accurate?
Blue’s suggestion that having a Caesarean section removes the usual postpartum wait for sex conflicts with National Health Service guidance.
The NHS says recovery from a C-section can take around six weeks and advises resuming sex only when it feels comfortable and does not cause pain. University Hospitals of Morecambe Bay NHS Foundation Trust advises waiting until the six-week postnatal check because internal stitches need time to heal.
A Caesarean avoids vaginal delivery, but it remains major abdominal surgery. The condition or appearance of external genital tissue does not determine whether internal recovery is complete. Medical guidance, inconveniently, concerns more than appearances.
The NHS also warns that pregnancy can occur as soon as three weeks after giving birth, even if the mother is breastfeeding and her periods have not restarted. Presenting a C-section as a shortcut around postpartum recovery risks turning a promotional remark into poor health advice for anyone inclined to take it seriously.
Have the NSPCC or social platforms acted?
As of 3:06 pm BST on September 10, the NSPCC had not publicly confirmed that it had opened an investigation. TikTok and Meta had also announced no enforcement action, and no crime, safeguarding violation or platform breach had been established.
The Tab reported on September 8 that Blue’s second Instagram account appeared to have been removed after the videos circulated. Meta did not explain why the account had disappeared, leaving open whether the removal was connected to the footage, another policy issue or something less dramatic.
The unresolved question extends beyond whether explicit material appeared. Platforms must also decide how to treat content that places a newborn inside marketing for an adult brand, even when the child’s face is obscured and the video itself contains no sexual act.
For now, Morrissey has filed a complaint, Blue has rejected the criticism, and the platforms have offered no public explanation. The video has generated plenty of certainty online, while the organisations responsible for making formal decisions have supplied very little.
