Her excitement regarding the news was quickly cut short after her tweet was subjected to homophobic comments on the social media platform. Following the homophobic comments, Taylor decided to slam the trolls who targeted her post.

Educate yourself before passing judgement: Taylor

Yes I am a lesbian, and have been for a very long time. No it's not a choice. I am in love and happy, that's what matters.

Every family is different...how it operates and how it looks. Educate yourself before passing judgement. The baby will be loved and supported...

Due to homophobic comments on her partner’s pregnancy news, Sara Taylor decided to come forward and blast the trolls who targeted her and her partner. She took to Twitter once again and reflected on the fact that people should educate themselves before passing judgement on others.

"Yes, I am a lesbian, and I have been for a very long time. No it's not a choice. I am in love and happy, that's what matters. Every family is different, both in how it operates and how it looks. Educate yourself before passing judgement. The baby will be loved and supported," she tweeted.

We are all brought up differently with differing beliefs, I do not pass judgment on other's. I will however pass judgment on hate, mocking and abuse. You do not belong here.

Love who you want as long as you're happy. Thanks to all who sent love and support 😘. Love is love 🏳️‍🌈
