Taylor’s mum Dawn took the time to comment a string of love heart emojis, despite it coming to light earlier this week that she has two charges against her.
Both charges carry the potential of six months in prison or an unlimited fine.
The charges read: "On 29/10/2019 at Euston Railway Station, Eversholt Street, Camden, London with intent to cause Jake Jacobs harassment, alarm or distress used threatening, abusive or insulting words or behaviour or disorderly behaviour thereby causing that or another person harassment, alarm or distress and the offence was racially aggravated."
