Myleene Klass gave birth three weeks ago to a little girl who she named Hero. 

The unusual choice of name has received a mixed reaction amongst her fans, leading the presenter to defend it on Twitter on Wednesday.

Following a comment asking the brunette beauty to "change her mind" about the name, Myleene replied: "Are you crazy?! Her name's amazing!".

But another fan showed their support and wrote: "Congratulations. Her name is beautiful by the way."

And the 33-year-old was quick to respond: "Thank you. It appears to have divided some people! We absolutely love it!".

Myleene and partner Graham Quinn are also the proud parents of daughter Ava, three.
