Mary Catherine Starr is an artist, mother and yoga teacher. She has built a following of over 225,000 people on Instagram through comic-book style illustrations that depict married life and motherhood.
Last week however, Starr began receiving abuse and death threats after some of her comics found a new audience on Twitter.
Many of her pretty illustrations have been widely shared on all corners of the internet and according to the Know Your Meme website, her most popular post to date from January 2022 depicts a dad buying fast food and being labelled as a ‘fun dad’, versus a mum labelled as a ‘lazy mum’.
