NEWPORT BEACH, CALIFORNIA: Heather El Moussa can’t get enough of her baby boy, Tristan Jay! The mother shared a post on Friday, April 7, cuddling her little one and captioned, "My baby and my bestie 👼🏻🤍. "We're inseparable and he's loving desert life 🫶" She could be seen vibing in a matching gray sweatshirt and sweatpants with white sunglasses. Meanwhile, eight-week-old Jay wore a light blue onesie with bear and cake motifs. It was in March when the 35-year-old shared photographs from her son’s newborn shoot on social media for the first time.

At the time, El Moussa was dressed in a blue-gray gown while holding her baby boy to her chest. The infant was curled up wearing just a diaper during the shoot. The 'Selling Sunset' star wrote, "His newborn pics are making my heart melt 🥹Everyone said they grow so fast. And it's so true. My little bundle of heaven… can he stay like this forever!!? 🤍🤍🤍." The proud mother talked about her new life after welcoming the baby with Tarek El Moussa in January. Heather wrote on her Instagram last week, "As much as I would like to do it all, he is my everything and my priority❤️”

'Hard, but very gratifying'

Stepmom to Brayden James, 7, and Taylor Reese, 12 from Tarek’s ex-wife Christina Hall, Heather had previously talked about the difficulty Jay had to face since he had tongue, cheek, and lip ties after birth. "Breastfeeding, for me, is definitely harder than I thought. Hard, but very gratifying. I love it," she said. While most fans love the fact that the mother is excited about her new role and love posting pictures of her baby online, some accused her of being 'attention-seeking' and posting photographs only when she had vested interests, such as promoting magazine articles, as per People.

'Do not like this attention-seeking stunt'

One Instagram user wrote, "I would make money while I could too!" while another pointed out, "Do not like this attention-seeking stunt". "Yeah, but you had to wait a month to show him to your followers because of the magazine articles. Still not cool. Now, of course, you won’t stop showing him. I guess your love bubble only lasted until the article was published," wrote one blunt user.
