Just heard from a 100% reliable source that she has indeed been dropped by The Collaborations Agency……as a result of all the negative information and apparently they advised her to take a break for a week and she went against their advise……they were very concerned about the screenshots of the messages with me and what she said to Tea Spill. So really they should have done the professional thing like what Ciaran Byrne did and make some sort of statement……but I doubt they will.
What a lovely bit of news to start the week!!! .
Happy Monday my lovely Tattlers

We fundraised for my cousin (who is the same age as Shannen) who got his terminal diagnosis this year, due to ES which developed into secondary lung cancer. We found trials and treatment abroad that he could do but we needed to fundraise over 100k which would be purely for treatment. It took us a little over a month to get this money together and since then my cousin has been back and forward receiving multiple types of treatment. That fundraising we done was life or death, if we didn't get the money, there was no chance of him fighting this. Yes he is terminal but least now there's a small glimmer of hope that maybe these treatments might work.
When she fundraised it eluded that she was in a similar situation to my cousin. I donated to it as i could sympathise as we were also trying to raise funds. Not for his house, not for his gf at home, not for anything else but purely treatment and treatment alone. And he updates his gofund me regularly with updates on his treatments etc.
He's now in Mexico receiving treatment, if you could all keep him in prayers and send good vibes his way, it would be very much appreciated

Thought it would be great to put together all the research and a timeline to package it up nicely for any new readers here since Tea spill or to package it up nicely for the media to pick it up and run a story on:

2019 - mid 2020
Shannen gets cancer for the second time. Starts an Insta page (the big c and me) because she wants to share her journey and help people.
Gets shared on Galz who snap, by the likes of Sue, Rosie and Grace - her following gets up to about 10k. She gets a Late Late Show appearance, a Voduz brand ambassador gig, radio and media attention and is the face of an Irish Cancer Society campaign. Her and Barry start a podcast. She’s getting a taste of the spotlight and the freebies from being in the spotlight.

Early- mid June 2020
First up was Shannen’s multiple attempts at creating drama to gain sympathy and boost following. Her first attempt was coming on ranting about “trolling”, saying she got a couple of nasty messages - she got shared by a couple of the influencer gang (outrage that poor Shannen the cancer victim was being trolled, go over and follow her to support her etc.) but didn’t quite gain the traction that Shannen needed to grow her numbers. Only got her from just under 10k to around 14k in a week.

June 30


Only 2-3 weeks later - she needed to think bigger - the golden ticket scam, pretending she got sent babygrows. Came on stories first playing dumb laughing saying I don’t why someone sent me these. Then within a few hours she was on crying saying someone random had sent her a dm saying “it’s a pity you’ll never get to use them”. Dramatics of her saying she wouldn’t be on social media for a while. However - no explanation of how some supposed random troll would’ve got her private home address. Remember she wasn’t an influencer at this stage. Got media coverage due to big outrage from some of the big influencers like MRS who came on her stories bawling about how awful it was, poor Shannen being trolled. Her followers started to really grow.

7 July 2020

Less than a week later, she dropped the news that she had relapsed publicly (which she would have known all the time the baby vest saga was ongoing). Then she gets propelled to the 100k mark in a matter of 2-3 weeks.

July 8 2020 - 1 day later! the famous GFM
Then her instagram friend Ciaran Byrne (had they ever even met in person) launched the GFM straight away (knee jerk reaction) before Shannen even knew for sure what her treatment was even going to be! Initial goal amount set at €10,000 - we all know the story, claimed it was needed for treatment and living expenses. However, within only a few days it had exploded to over €100k. Shannen came on saying it was going to be closed however it wasn’t closed for another few days and left climb up to €175k along with other public fundraisers (Voduz etc.) and private local fundraisers and private donations that there wouldn’t be any public record of. Safe to assume she got over €200k total easily.

Late July/August 2020
Within only a couple of weeks of the GFM, there was a fairly new car purchased as well as numerous hotel breaks away to places like the Castlemartyr resort. People started to raise eyebrows already about what the money was being used.

I could keep going but it’s all documented in these threads. Shannen’s treatment was all free, she could’ve used a free apartment in Dublin supplied by the hospital. The apartment that she needed to rent for 6-9 months was only rented for 3-4 months and in fact if they stayed in it for a month in total it would’ve been a lot as she was released from hospital and left go home to Youghal very quickly and then they were only staying in 1 night a week or a fortnight when they were coming to Dublin for appointments.
Her Dad was driving her to all the appointments (Where was the new car that had to be bought for all the trips to Dublin and where was Barry who they needed the money for to be off work taking her!?)

In the meantime, Shannen continues to try and be an influencer and gets signed to an agency in August 2021.

Shannen then gave an update in January 2021, available to view on the GFM - only because people were talking here on Tattle and I think because she was blocking anyone who commented or messaged her asking her about the GFM, people started to contact the Byrnes who were the instigators of the GFM. Shannen was shamed into giving an update on the page. Made a statement that she would keep the money until January 2022 in case of relapse and then donate it. No evidence of any donations made to date.

Shannen in the mean time trying to make it as an influencer. Lived very carelessly as a post cancer and transplant patient during COVID, money being splashed on runners, Nike jumpers, eyelash extensions, nights away, nights out. Bold as brass refusing to be accountable or answerable about the GFM.

Which leads us to now. The traction is building and people have had enough of Shannen. She’s losing followers. She’s been called out by Tea Spill. Her agency look to have dropped her. She was highlighted for abusing a terminally ill cancer patient for asking about the GFM.

I would love to see the Irish media put spotlight on how the unregulated Go Fund Mes have to stop in this country. Shannen is the absolute worst example of it but there are many more. Irish people are too trusting and generous. This girl is literally the reason many of us on here will never donate to go fund mes again. That’s her legacy.

Also - can I just add that the Tattle thread is now the 4th top Google result when you Google Shannen Joyce. Well done everyone, let’s ensure anyone Googling this scamming piece of work finds these threads so she can’t pull the wool over anyone’s eyes anymore. So include her full name as much as you can - especially in the thread titles.

This whole shit show is really affecting my health. It’s cut me to the core the lies and way Shannen has spoken about me. I need to mind myself. There she is living her best life while a consignment of loungewear is waiting for her to launch until I keep quiet and I’m here nearly on the floor from her lies and vile behaviour. I’ll go away now and guaranteed in the next few weeks she will launch her loungewear. And the sad part is there will be so many who will buy it. I can’t watch this shit show anymore. I just can’t. I couldn’t get pit of bed today with Pain and anxiety. I can’t live like this.

And my name s Brenda………and I will try and stay strong. I’m proud of outing her and proud of how I had the courage to go public. I’m proud……end of. I just need to look after myself

I went to school and played camogie with Shannen,she was a horrible person back then but is 100 times worse now,my mother always told me she'd end up trouble and to stay well clear of her.Her car rant on Wednesday made me lol when she said I'm not a bitch I'm a really nice person,she was never a nice person,I can never remember her ever having a nice word about anyone,was always bitching in a spiteful way.Before she ever had cancer she told me her dad had saved 20,000 in the credit union for her that she could Access at 18.She went through that 20,000 in a matter of months,literally pissed it away on god knows what and was afraid then her dad would find out,I didn't believe her but a cousin told me it was true.So I've no doubt that GFM is well and truly pissed away.A young boy in youghal is going to England for the same treatment Shannen had a GFM was set up for him,she donated 10 euro.refused to promote his GFM money on her stories as she told one of the fundraising committee she couldn't as it was a sore point.Shannon is only well known for having cancer and going public with her journey and now her cancer has gone she can't let go and go back to being a nobody.What she can't grasp is she's now only well known for being a nasty,money grabbing, attention seeking pity party.Youde think at her age she'd get off social media and live her life as she should be after surviving cancer instead she's constantly telling whoever will listen what she has for breakfast,dinner and tea then how she fills every waking and sleeping minute as if anyone gives a shit.Shes addicted at this stage to social media and just loves the sound of her own voice.Im glad I took my mother's advice years ago to stay away from her and break free.id absolutely hate to be associated in anyway with her cringe life.Shannen how does it feel to be the talk of town,the talk of every tea break in people's work place,the talk of school yard mammies.Oh you're well known like you always wanted but for the wrong reasons Shan.When you grow up to be an adult you might look back on how you scammed people with your GFM.

A bit early but next thread title. Snug by SJ, a chancer, a taker, a candle stick maker. it’s in my head since the other day at the big reveal.

Hi lads, don't have the patience or time to read the past six threads or thousands of messages. Could someone give me a very quick summary of what we know about her? No speculation, just facts!

Jesus!! And hello to you too. Anything else? Would you like a massage or anything?

@Missymeister I will be thinking of you all day today. You are so brave and an absolute warrior. Should you need anything please feel free to reach out.

@The jigs and the reels you are so kind as is everyone of you who have me in their thoughts today.
My apt is at 2pm……I’m ready for it……and in a strange way knowing that I won’t have to have anymore poison pumped into me every single week since last August has given me a sense of peace. I am not spending whatever time I have left sick and debilitated from chemo. I’m never going to be cancer free so I’m now going to get my strength back both mentally & physically and live out whatever life I have left with a smile on my face and joy in my heart……I’ve cried lots over the past few days but I know I’m making the right decision.
Again thank you all so much for all the love & support

I’m actually embarrassed for you Shannon not her. For anyone who didn’t see the comments here it is I’m shocked that someone who has been through as much as she has would speak like this about a terminally Ill woman. Maybe she should have a look at jemhow on instagram there is a woman who could do with 200,000 she is fighting to stay alive her youngest child has just turned one

Everytime I read her reply to me I get so emotional……I’m not looking for sympathy but as I’ve said before I thought long and hard whether I would share the exchange of messages here and now I know with every fibre of my being that I did the right thing. I did the right thing for anyone who has ever had to or still is fighting cancer……I did the right thing to bring attention to the shadiness around the whole GFM greediness and fraud that she committed.…I did the right thing to highlight how infallible and untouchable some if these so called ‘Insta huns’ think they are……and I did the right thing for myself because I was genuinely sick to my core of her attitude and pure undignified way she used cancer as a money making tool. I am dying from cancer……and then she had the audacity to slander my character in her messages to Tea Spill.
I might not have €200k in my bank account and I might not have gotten notoriety on the Late Late Show or numerous other media interviews she did but I have one thing Shannen will never have and that is dignity………and that is priceless.

Not derailing but just taking a moment to remember and appreciate Bowelbabe who lived a life full of love and charity up to her last breath. A woman who fought with dignity and grace in the face of adversity and just gave gave gave. RIP your name will live on in the good that you’ve done.

Hi my lovelies……just checking in. I’m doing good at the moment thankfully .
I started taking cannabis oil drops about 2 weeks ago and all I can say is the stuff is just incredible. I have to take way less of my strong pain meds and my energy levels the past week are hugely improved. I was waiting about 6 months to get the drops from this guy who makes them himself. And I ordered 2 bottles so he told me because it’s helping me so much I won’t have to wait anymore The taste is vile but my it’s honestly given me a new lease of life. My anxiety has improved my sleep has improved and most importantly my pain has reduced significantly. It will be I interesting to see if it had any affects in my tumours. My next scan is in February. And I have started seeing a really lovely guy……early days but he is kind and makes me laugh
And as for the scammer and her candles………I would genuinely love to know how many she has sold??? And I hope she is happy in herself. She really has no shame. We all know the money used to fund, her hopefully a flop of a business, was from the GFM……karma Shannen karma. Your partner left you………he wised up and saw what a vile narcissistic woman you are. Actually woman is too good for you………cunt is perfect.
Hope all my amazing tattle bitches are doing ok.
Love B xxxx

Thread suggestion: shannenjoyce_ : Big C for Con, your attitude is not on. Explain yourself Shannen, where has the money gone?

Little girl on the Toy Show had money raised for her prosthetic leg after amputation because of a tumour....Ryan asked them what they did with the extra money, buy herself something nice? No....they donated all the leftover money to charties around Ireland.
Shannen needs to learn a lesson from this little girl.

She is the most vile self absorbed nasty bitch. She is scum who was happy uses cancer as a chance to make money.
I am currently going through my 2nd battle with cancer and this will be my last as it’s terminal and I hate how angry and disgusted this bitch makes me feel so I’m posting this to try and get it off my chest. I am just back from 3 hours of weekly chemo I’m feeling sick and shitty but what she has done from the 1st day she set up her page is absolutely mind blowingly vile and abhorrent.
She will never stop using cancer as a way to make money and try to garner sympathy for herself. Georgie Crawford is no better. I’m in a womens cancer support group and her and Georgie just disgust most of us. She needs to be held accountable for all the money she fraudulently made from several fundraisers and I hope and pray that I am around to see her getting investigated and shamed.
Shame shame shame on her

@Missymeister thinking of you

Click to expand...

@Turmeric123 thanks so much. Bit of a rough few days……I have cancer in a few places one being a tumour in my sternum and unfortunately it’s gotten bigger and very painful so quickly since I stopped chemo . Also my weekly blood markers were not good yesterday so I’m feeling so low. I knew when I stopped chemo there would be a knock on affect but it’s happened quicker than expected. I have another 5 weeks of my current course of treatment and then the dreaded scan but I already know it’s not going to be good. It’s just shit and very scary.
I really appreciate you thinking of me

Awww girls the beautiful lady has been in touch with me about Coldplay!!! I am just blown away………I won’t lie the past couple of days with all this shit show my pain and anxiety are through the roof but this has given me such a lift it’s hard to put it into words. I’m so emotional and so bloody grateful. B xx

Shouldn’t have but I’ve just watched her stories. And I do feel bad for her……I’m too soft. But she only has herself to blame and that’s when I just appreciate the support on here for coming out with the story. They are crocodile tears. Yes her anxiety is through the roof but only because she has been outed. And I would imagine she has invested a huge chunk of the GFM into launching her brand and now it’s completely backfired. And she only has herself to blame. I was happily getting on with my life and then she dragged all the shut up and again slandered my name on the podcast and the RSVP etc sympathy bullshit. So fir me enough was enough. I went public and now I’m not just a nameless faceless person who tried to hold her accountable for the original question I asked and is the crux f this whole shitshow she has made of her own doing. I have zero regret. I’m only trying to do the right thing. So Shannen……I was rattled too……the night I got the threatening messages from the fake call out Teaspill page and over the past few days from the messages asking me to show receipts for the amazing PayPal donations to try and see my bucket list ticked.
I am proud that I, despite all I’m going through, had the integrity to keep this conversation going and I am proud of me. I’m dying from cancer. I don’t need this shit in my life. But I do feel sorry for you. But you could have simply prevented all of this by not blatantly lying about me and twisting the narrative to suit you. I might have cancer but my integrity and my honesty will always stay with me…… until I take my last breath. I’m bawling here typing this but I’m blown away by the love and support from all of you here and that’s because you can all tell, without having met me, I am a strong genuinely honest woman.
B xx

New thréad suggestion, rún rún as fast as u can, you will eventually be exposed for your gfm scam

Got an email today with a GFM update for Team up for Theo. Can't even remember when I donated but it basically said Theo is doing well, they don't need the money for treatment is US and are donating it to charity. They listed out about 5 charities which helped them and are splitting it between them. They also said if I wasn't happy for my donation to go to these charities then I could request a refund. I can't even remember how much I donated to Theo who was very ill at the time but I'm happy for my donation to be passed on. I was very happy to contribute to helping a sick child at the time but since the whole Shannen GFM I haven't contributed to one, nor will I. Team up for Theo is a perfect example of how a GFM should be dealt with but unfortunately the likes of Shannen have ruined it. Shame on you Shannen.
