Lots of Twitter users said their grandparents and mums were just as brutally honest.

“I didn’t think anything of it, my nana’s always like that and doesn’t hold back, she’s some women but we wouldn’t have her any other way.”

Straight talking Mary added: “I’m not very good on Facebook, I just go on there to see what’s going on.

“I probably should have private messaged it because it was just meant to be seen by her but I’m glad she took it well, I was only saying it in a nice way.

“The picture that came up was one of those modified ones so I thought ‘look how stunning she looks’. She’s got these beautiful big eyes like the ocean, you could just fall into them.

“She’s beautiful. It wasn’t meant as a dig. I was actually quite upset by some of the reaction because she got some digs, or well, I did.

“I’ve got ten grandchildren and one great grandchild and I’m very protective of them all. We are all very close so they all know me too well. I’m brutally honest if nothing else.”
