A California mom has complained about a British Airways host who allegedly lifted her nursing blanket while she was feeding her baby, leaving her breasts exposed.

Shayanne Wright said she was trying to nurse her seventh-month-old daughter on the overnight flight when the male attendant intruded, leaving her feeling 'violated'.

Wright, of Costa Mesa, near Los Angeles, told Fox Business she informed the crew before meal service that she would be nursing her daughter to sleep and asked for her food to be served later.

She said they denied this request, and the flight attendant rudely tapped her on the leg several times during meal service to rush her into eating dinner.

'I stuck my hand out to wave him away,' she told Fox. 'Then, without asking, he lifts the nursing cover up completely. It wakes her up. Both my boobs are out.
