We thought the complaint about a pregnant Jenny-May Coffin on TV would have been a one-off - it wasn't. 

A 'TODAY' television presenter in Australia, Deborah Knight, politely dismissed an email from a viewer claiming her baby bump is “repulsive”.

The woman said she does “not need to look at her pregnant body, especially sideways”.

“If you must have her on… keep her sitting down,” the email continued. “It looks repulsive.”

Knight said she wasn't offended by the comment:

“I was quite surprised by that email. I wasn’t offended. I thought it was kind of funny that someone would have that opinion,” Knight said.
