She regularly posts her outfit choices and shopping hauls for her army of followers on social media (@jillyisabella).
And since sharing the news that she's expecting her first baby with Andy this year, Jilly has enjoyed styling outfits around her growing bump.
In a recent video, the mum-to-be - who has her own fashion brand Dula - paired low rise jeans with a white flowy crop top and blazer.
While most fans gushed over "how glowing" she looked, one hater commented: "Is it mandatory to have your belly out in every video when you're pregnant?
"We get it, put it away.
"I'm not hating. It's my personal opinion."
But Jilly instantly hit back with her typical humour and says she refuses to be left looking like a tent.
In a clip, showing off her bump in a white co-ord, she said: "Now aside from the fact that we had beautiful weather over the weekend, 23 degrees, I'm assuming you're from Britain, and you decided to spend that indoors commenting hateful things on people's TikToks. Could never be me.
"Although you said it's not hateful, it's not hate comments and it's just your opinion, I love when people say that. 'I'm not being a hater, it's just my opinion, like I'm entitled to it', it's just another way to say I'm an a***hole. But that's cute. Each to their own."
Pulling her skirt up to cover her bump, she then continued: "You can't tell me that looks good and that's how you want me to walk about?
I was dating the same guy for just over a year and he was hiding a secret pregnant wife - he even made jokes about her & lived by a fake name
"I look like a tent from Decathlon, I look like a tent that was left in the Glastonbury Fields from last year.
"You want me to walk about like this?
"This is giving your bed sheets on the washing line, so I won't be doing that, it's not stylish of me."
Jilly then insists "you can't tell me this isn't cuter" as she pulls her skirt waistband down again to sit below her bump.
"Much more stylish, much more freeing, and in the heat that we're having, I don't want to overheat", she said.
Jilly's clip has racked up almost 250,000 views with people jumping to her defence.
One person said: "Something absolutely chilling about telling a woman who's pregnant to 'put it away'."

"It's actually impressive the things that upset people these days", wrote a second.
A third cried: "DO NOT PUT IT AWAY!!!!! I demand to see the bump I'm loving seeing you style it."
"God forbid you style yourself well while pregnant", fumed a fourth.
A fifth gushed: "An absolute queen, I am screaming."
Meanwhile a sixth said: "You look beautiful you are carrying precious cargo why not show it off."
It comes after her footballer beau revealed he had to have his "phone on loud" on the sidelines in case Jilly went into labour while he was playing for Motherwell.
'I want to be there for the birth of my first baby — but hopefully she can hold off", he joked.
But he added: 'The time has come and we're absolutely delighted that we've got the first baby on the way. The timing is good at the end of the season.
'I will have a couple of weeks off to spend every day with my wife and the baby. I'll get to do as much as I possibly can before the madness of next season starts again.
'We've got a really good network of support with both our families being from Glasgow.
'We've got mums and dads, brothers, sisters and cousins around who can help out where possible."
We told earlier how Jilly was branded the "Lidl of WAGs" by a cruel troll.
But the red-haired beauty immediately got the last laugh with her funny comeback.
Replying with her typical humour, Jilly sarcastically hit back: "Do you mean Lidl as in little, like skinny? Wait, do you think I'm really skinny? [screams]."
She added: "Said Lidl like I should be offended???"

Passenger moans parent lets baby's feet dangle on lap while feeding tot on flight – but who is in the right?
Commenters had a very pun-heavy reaction to the post CABIN CLASH Passenger moans parent lets baby's feet dangle on lap while feeding tot on flight – but who is in the right? Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) IT'S an age-old problem every passenger is accustomed to - another flyer invading your cramped plane seat. One flyer wanted to know if he was the problem after posting a photo of someone's feet touching his leg with the caption "should I report it to the stewards?" Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 A Reddit user posted a photo of the baby invading his space Credit: Reddit Posting on the Reddit page r/CasualUK the user adopted a somewhat satirical tone when he posted a photo of a baby's feet touching his leg. He captioned the post: "On a flight and a passenger keeps putting his bare feet on me." Fellow Reddit users took it as an opportunity to make jokes about the all-too-common situation. One wrote: "Those piggies need to go to the market" while another wrote "They need Eenie-Meanying immediately." Read more News MESSY WEEKEND Appleby cleanup begins as burnt-out van among rubbish in field A lot of the jokes relied on baby puns to make light of the situation as one wrote: "They need to grow up." Another said: "I believe the agreed etiquette in these situations is to blow raspberries on them." Others had some slightly more outrageous suggestions, using the opportunity to comment absurd ideas for how to handle the situation. One Reddit users commented: "I would assert dominance by picking them up and using them as a phone, putting on a stupid voice." Another similar suggestion reads: "Completely unacceptable. Have you considered threatening to put him in the overhead locker?" There was a clear divide among commenters between those who like children, and those who don't. Tyson Fury among THOUSANDS of travellers at Appleby as horse fair kicks off Child-loving users were sympathetic to the situation, commenting on how cute the tiny baby's feet were. The not-so-friendly users continued with their edgy jokes, writing: "Just yeet the baby" accompanied by an animated image of someone throwing a baby. Another suggested they post it on the popular subreddit r/PassengerShaming. This forum is a safe space for passengers to vent about their worst aeroplane experiences. It includes shaming behaviours like being barefoot, having your hair over the back of the chair, and blocking the aisle. 2 Commenters were divided over their reactions to the post Credit: Getty It's not the first time that travellers have been left frustrated by their fellow cabin-mates' behaviour. An EasyJet flight recently drew attention for being turned into a 'mid-air nightclub' by unruly flyers. During a trip to Ibiza, a group of drunk Brits caused havoc as they banged on luggage compartments and yelled "come on Ibiza." Other passengers on the plane were clearly uncomfortable about the situation, with one saying she felt "scared". Unlike the much more agreeable baby, these British passengers were met by police on arrival.

Romeo Beckham moves on from girlfriend Kim 'with blonde model' in Paris
Romeo and Kim split just two weeks ago. Romeo Beckham only split with his ex, Kim Turnbull, a few weeks ago and has apparently already moved on. The second eldest Beckham child was spotted with a blonde model in Paris. David and Victoria Beckham's 22-year-old son has found himself surrounded by rumours of a family feud after his older brother Brooklyn, 26, decided to avoid their dad's 50th birthday. Brooklyn was reportedly 'uneasy' about Romeo dating Kim, as he was once close friends with her, and felt his parents were 'favouring' his younger brother, who was seen beaming in snaps from David's birthday, writes the Mirror. Amid the family rift, Romeo and Kim parted ways two weeks ago and now it looks like it's all-change again after the latest snaps coming in from Paris. Romeo was spotted in a car in the French capital, sporting a shaved head, wearing a black Champion sweatshirt and tracksuit bottoms. He was pictured in the car with German model, Caroline Daur, 30, leaving a bash at the swanky, Hotel Costes. Romeo jumped into a taxi with the influencer - who was rocking a strapless minidress and who has 5m followers on Instagram - and other pals after enjoying an evening together, before hot-footing it to Julia nightclub, where they stayed until the early hours. The pair sparked romance rumours as they went to great lengths not be snapped together as they left the venue separately. However, they then headed off in the same car alongside others, reports the Mail. It is said that Romeo and Caroline bonded over their love of tennis, with both attending the Men's Singles Semi Final at the French Open on Friday. Romeo's representatives have been contacted for comment. Insiders say that things remain 'amicable' between Romeo and his ex Kim, and insist that their split has nothing to do with the bitter Beckham feud, which is said to have been sparked by their relationship. Brooklyn is said to have felt Kim's reasons for dating his brother were 'disingenuous' amid rumours he used to date the DJ. However, in a now deleted Instagram post Cruz Beckham denied Brooklyn was ever in a relationship with Kim. Speaking to the Mail about Romeo's split with the DJ, who the model once referred to his as his "world", a source said: "Romeo and Kim are both young and they had a lovely time together but at that age things don't always last forever and they decided to split up. "They have been friendly since and have even been at the same venues. It's a huge shame, particularly as David and Victoria really adored her and thought she made Romeo happy but it wasn't to be. "David and Victoria would hate for the view to be that they split because of Nicola and Brooklyn because that simply isn't the case." Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!
