An Australian betting firm have come under fire for a “disgusting” tweet about the girlfriend of a Manchester United player.
James Wilson attended the recent Player Of The Year awards with his girlfriend Frankie Barwell, who looked stunning in a beautiful dress by Self-Portrait.
However, the couple were later targeted by the Oddschecker Aus account on Twitter, who called on Wilson to ‘abuse’ his position and find another partner.
The tweet immediately drew criticism online, with many blasting the company for their “disgusting” attempts to “body shame” Barwell.

The “Oddschecker Australia” staff member responsible for that disgusting, offensive tweet the other day, better have been fired.

Wilson has taken the jibe in her stride, taking to Instagram to post the below photo with the caption “Remember, people only rain on your parade because their jealous of your sun and tired of their shade”.
Fair play to her!
