Amelia Hamlin has denied ‘blackfishing’ after appearing several skin tones darker than usual in a recent Instagram picture.

The 19-year-old regularly posts selfies and modelling shots on her Instagram, which is followed by 784,000 people.

However, her latest post attracted attention for all the wrong reasons, due to the much darker shade of make-up she was sporting.
