Meet the Australian baby that earns $1,000 a day from Instagram.

And has more followers than Sophie Monk and Pixie Curtis.

Meet Millie-Belle Diamond, she’s guaranteed to have more followers on Instagram than you and all your friends combined, and commands up to $250 per post.

She’s got a designer wardrobe stocked with items that would make a grown fashion addict weep. I’m talking Burberry and Fendi type stuff. She’s been gifted all of it, including personalised diamond jewellery and designer baby sized handbags, all in the hope that the items may feature in one of her Instagram posts and create exposure amongst her 115,000 followers.

This is the life of 14-month-old Millie-Belle, the adorable tot from Sydney’s beach side suburb of Warriewood who holds the title of The most followed baby on Instagram in the world.

Her account has more followers than some international celebrities, with people around the globe ‘liking’ and commenting daily on pictures of the gorgeous baby.

What initially began as an online photo sharing account to connect with family interstate sent Millie-Belle into international baby stardom when another kids fashion account shared a photo of the blue eyed beauty. What came next was completely unexpected. “They shared a pic of her in a cute little leopard-print bow and outfit and it went around the world. That photo is still being reposted today,” mum Schye Fox told the Daily Telegraph.

Nowadays, Millie-Belle commands up to $250 per sponsored post, and up to $600 for half a days work. This work has included modelling for kid’s wear labels such as ‘Rock your Baby’ and Natalie Bassingwaithe’s recently launched ‘Chi Khi’.

Millie-Belle is still very much a normal child though, and mum Schye doesn’t pretend otherwise. While some pictures on Millie-Belle’s Instagram showcase designer labels, it’s still evident in other photos that she has typical 14 month old moments with grubby faces and meltdowns and it seems that’s what makes her so relatable.

This kind of exposure doesn't come without trouble though, with Millie-Belle's mum explaining that she felt the need to close down the toddlers Facebook page as "it all got a bit too much".

With daily messages and requests from all over the world, it's easy to see why. Not only does Schye need to be wary of people sharing her daughters photos unlawfully but she is also fully aware that people may have ulterior motives when it comes to following a child's photo sharing account.

“We were asked if she could Snapchat someone in China — it’s a bit weird,” Ms Fox told The Daily Telegraph.

“Then there’s the baby role players, which you’ve got to look out for."

For now, Millie-Belle and her family are enjoying her success as the world's most followed baby on Instagram and Millie-Belle continues to conquer the world.

Her latest achievement? Recently, learning how to walk.
