David Gandy gets trolled over his looks on Instagram.

The 41-year-old model has revealed he has to deal with cruel comments from people on social media when he shares snaps with his followers.

As quoted by the Daily Mail newspaperโ€™s Eden Confidential column, he said: โ€œOn Instagram, thereโ€™s this thing about age now โ€” age is used as a weapon. I get, โ€˜Youโ€™re so old now, look at all your wrinkles.โ€™ โ€œ

However, David tries not to take offence to the comments, and heโ€™s able to laugh off the online digs.

He added: โ€œIt doesnโ€™t bother me, as Iโ€™ve always been an old man in a young manโ€™s body anyway.โ€

Meanwhile, David โ€“ who welcomed daughter Matilda into the world with his partner Stephanie Mendoros in November 2018 โ€“ admitted his life โ€œrevolves aroundโ€ his baby girl.

He previously said: โ€œMornings revolve around Matilda. Sheโ€™s a good sleeper, but she wakes up between five and six, so Iโ€™ll go into her room to be with her for an hour or so. My partner, Steph, calls it a teddy bearsโ€™ picnic because I end up with bears all around me. Then Steph will take over and give her breakfast, while Iโ€™ll go back to bed for a nap.โ€

David isnโ€™t used to having a routine as he spent so much time on the road whilst modelling, but now strives to stay at home as often as possible in order to be with his daughter.

He added: โ€œItโ€™s strange having a routine as I didnโ€™t really have one for 17 years [while I was modelling]. You always had a bag packed ready to go, but I donโ€™t think itโ€™s fair to travel so much now Iโ€™m a dad.โ€
