Of course Twitter being Twitter, her post was trolled over the name Mars and her “right to life” views.

Congratulations on the birth of a healthy son.
Naming him Mars has made him a target of ridicule for a lifetime.
Sorry to be so blunt, tbh.

Congratulations. We can only hope this might impact your right to life views.
