Celebrity twitter outrage over Barlows’ tragedy
Twitter user @MrKennethTong, believed to be former Big Brother contestant Kenneth Tong, posted a number of offensive statements on his account about the grieving musician’s late daughter, Poppy.
His comments, which provoked angry responses on Twitter, have been widely condemned by other users and celebrity friends of Barlow and his wife Dawn, who delivered her fourth child stillborn in London last Saturday.
