Are you not here for it?

I know you all said the sink was small but I wasn’t expecting it to be that small!!!!

Anna's carbon footprint, going back and forth to New York in a matter of days.

I'm surprised (given her recent form!) that she's made the pregnancy announcement alone. Mark only makes a brief appearance. Thankful not to have 12 minutes of him grinning away.

She got pregnant only a few weeks after moving into the house. I guess that's what happens when you spend months at the Airbnb of Mum & Dad!

The 'boob situation' definitely gave her away early on!

She's stuck in 2019. Glossier review, Fenty review, Capsule makeup bag with the same stuff she's had for years. Can't be arsed to watch, feels like a Déjà vu....
Also what it the fuck is a capsule makeup bag? It's the normal amount of makeup for someone who's not an influencer or a makeup-collector, stop making banal things into something special ffs

The whole “unexpected childcare” is another bullshit lie. As someone who lives with a trainspotter… that green steam engine on the edge of one of the photos is the Flying Scotsman, which is at the Bluebell Railway right now. Tickets to see it sold out ages ago. So this day out was very much planned.

If it is the case that Anna has to run every single house purchase by Mark for his approval, then I can see this breeding resentment further down the line. It seems like he's the one holding the purse strings, even though she's the one earning the money. I don't know if that's how things really are, but that's how she's making it seem, and I know I couldn't live like that. She has said that she hates confrontation, so it's possible she just submits for an easy life.

It's interesting that Lily and Rich seem to have the same sort of dynamic; Lily clearly makes all the decisions in their relationship. I wonder if Mark & Lily, as the dominant personalities, always used to getting their way etc, clash a lot?

I was in an abusive and manipulative relationship and one of the issues was money. I earned more. Luckily we lived apart and never lived together the whole of the relationship, but he’d nitpick what I chose to spend my money on and say I didn’t give + spend enough to/on him. It was a contentious part of the relationship. I had to run all of my purchases by him and get approval or else it’d be painful for me (literally). And he’d often tack items on to my purchases.

I’m now happily married and I still have issues with money. My husband does not care how much I spend or what I spend it on, and I’m the higher earner again. But I still ask him + run it by him even though I know I don’t need to, and he says so. It almost feels pathological now for me to get approval to buy something. It’s absolutely fucked me up and I try really hard to break the pattern.

While I believe there’s no physical abuse with Anna + Mark, the possibility of mental/verbal/psychological abuse could be just as bad. Don’t get my wrong, I’m not accusing either of them of abuse, and I’ve said it before about her victim language w-r-t “he let me” “I had to ask Mark” before that it’s super problematic. And even more so if it’s not true and she’s trying to sound relatable.

Let me tell you Anna, there’s nothing laughable or relatable about living under one’s thumb, whether true or not. And it’s actually quite sickening that you think acting like a victim makes you relatable and (insert comic sans) ~ * QuIrKy ReLaTiOnShIp *~ goals.

She’s a self-professes budgeting guru so work disposable income for each of you each month in to the budget and STFU about what he lets you and doesn’t let you purchase. Unless, of course, that’s ACTUALLY the case.

Say "managed to squeeze in" one more time!

I’m beginning to dislike Anna more than Lily. At least what you see is what you get with Lily, she’s mean, moany, unaware of her privilege, and totally stupid. But I feel like everything Anna has been doing recently really points to her being duplicitous and manipulative - the fake online persona is wearing thin...

Let’s give a Lily a hug.

Lily -

Yup, that baby is ALL Mark. He's a cute baby, of course, I'm just saying he's fair-haired and definitely takes after Mark in that respect rather than Anna.
Mark thought of the name Ralph. There is no family significance etc. to it - it's just a name he/they liked.
There won't be a whole lot of baby content in her videos going forward.
She says to go watch Jenn Im's vidoes if you want to know her birth story/recovery as their stories are really similar. Anna doesn't get into details but she said her labour was quite long.
She said she found sharing stuff about her pregnancy made her feel really vulnerable and every time she shared something she felt she wanted to take it back (hence the disappearing first trimester video, I guess). Doesn't sound like she'll be sharing a lot of 'mum stuff' going forward.
She won't feature Ralph much and this is to protect him. He didn't ask to be shared online with the world. Good call, Anna! I'm glad she's doing this especially having seen how other influencers are using their newborn babies for ads etc (Jim Chapman).

her style is best described as all dressed up to go to the kitchen.

I know it’s early but “all dressed up to go to the kitchen” has GOT to be the next thread title

I watched the vid cos I was bored. I ended up being more bored after wards.

I’ve never been pregnant before but is there really that much of a difference between 6/7/8/9 etc pregnant? I mean when she said ‘6 weeks is the time you normally feel sick’ and then going ‘7 weeks pregnant and I haven’t been sick’. And using the notepad to write down what’s in the app. More time and money than sense.

Please don’t let this be a thing until the bébe is born!

Anna really does need some company. I’ve never been pregnant so I should probably STFU, but genuinely does any normal person have time to literally log their farts in a specially purchased notebook? It just seems bizarre and the height of navel-gazing.

I totally get where you're coming from and I can relate! While Toteme is very popular, several of their pieces don't really hold the quality of their price tag if that makes sense? And I mean, cotton button downs and black suit trousers is something you really can get at a good price and of good quality on the real, not 130GBP, high street haha. It's been mentioned here many times before but she keeps arguing that things are an investment because it is expensive but then ends up on Vestiaire. I liked her style when her capshool wardrobe was still a capshool and not a capshill, and even got a few pieces from Whistles after her recommendation. Good times, eh?

I I googled Mark Newton the other day and this came up, obviously a different Mark Newton, but I was shocked at how much this looks like him. Maybe this was his first wife?

I wonder what Anna would think of our collective repulsion of marvellous Mark who is perfect in every way. Remember she said something about not being able to cope with negative opinions of things close to her hence why she only shows certain things on her channel and IG shop. None of us are buying Mark nanna & wouldn't take him if he came free with binoculars and dad sandals included.

Ive said it before but he’s the reason I started having unwatchable moments and then an unsubscribe situation. I hate influencer husbands and much of my ick comes from him muscling in to the content when I didn’t ask for it. Trying to get a slice of the influencer pie WELL NO ONE WANTS YOU MARK. Get your own job. I also directly attribute it to Anna’s decline from stylish normal eyebrowed woman to the hessian sack wearing Ming the Merciless she has become.

A quick Pinterest search to find old Anna, this is why I followed her. Where has she gone?
