A pregnant amputee has overcome bullies to become an online star with millions of fans who watch her dance.

Ella Cabutaje Aguilor, 23, said she was born without legs but that did not stop her love of dancing in Cagayan Valley, the Philippines.

Footage captured this month shows 39-weeks pregnant Ella swaying her body and making hand movements to perform in front of the camera.

She usually does the routines on the mattress in her bedroom but sometimes presents in her yard.

Ella said: 'I love to dance and when I became pregnant it became a way for me to exercise. It is so hard to carry a baby in my belly.'

Despite having many supporters, Ella said she also encountered a few bullies.

They have taunted her for having no legs due to a congenital disease while others have criticised her for having a baby.

She said: 'They ask me why I had to become pregnant and judge me that I will not be a good mother. They say I should not be having children because I am not capable of being a month.

'I do not listen to them. I am happy that I have a husband who loves me and my supporters who tell me otherwise. We are a family and we will raise our daughter together.

'I may not have legs but I have a heart and a brain. That is enough to raise a happy and fulfilled child.'

Ella added she will be having her baby girl anytime soon.

She said: 'I'm excited to finally see her and introduce her to the world.'
