Personally, if I had to rank them all on a scale from least to most dysfunctional/deranged, it would go like this:

9) Mika the cat (the most sane member of this household by far)
8) Matthew (he's just a dude man... just let him have fun on his damn holiday, Holly)
7) the less visibly disturbed/hyperactive of their two dogs (Bali?? idk I can never remember their stupid names)
6) Emily's Vegan Boyfriend (idk, he seemed nice but then again he's into antivaxx Emily so who knows really)
5) the more visibly disturbed/hyperactive of their two dogs
4) Holly actually
3) Esoteric Emily
2) Holly's mom (obsessive-compulsive, controlling, toxic)
1) Holly's dad (same as with mom pretty much, except he seems even more vicious?? idk he just scares me tbh)

I wish tattle had some sort of voting function, that would be fun xD

Do you think part of the reason she didn't pull out or even toy with the idea is because of the backlash/ridicule she may have had from her family?
Her father wpuld probably drop another pearl of wisdom abputvthe importance of perseverance and how she's a wuss for dropping out. I can imagine her mum going "it doesn't seem that bad" as Holly writhes in pain while her sister vlogs the thing like a prank video. I swear her whole family consists of closeted sociopaths. She needs to get out.

For those who haven’t seen, here are the images from her story.

She’s visibly thinner. Like she actually looks super ill. In the second screenshot, her collarbones in the bottom right hand image remind me of Cambridge Holly, like, first year Cambridge Holly. Or at least how she would become visibly thinner during her exam periods.

Genuinely have never been more concerned for this girl.
I literally never comment on these threads but I found those photos Holly posted jarring.
I looked like that before Christmas and I had to move home from uni for my health because I was eating so little and was completely over exercising and to be honest life was torture.
I’m doing better now but it’s hard.
But Holly if you’re reading the PLEASE do something. YOU are in control. Your hair will stop snapping and falling out, you will feel warm, your skin will brighten again, you’ll have energy. You won’t hurt all day long and wish time away. No one will change this for you. But nothing is worth the damage your doing to yourself. The world will wait - people don’t need you to be perfect and nothing will happen if you go at a slower pace for a bit FOR YOURSELF. Please please please do something Holly. If you keep going the way you are you won’t be able to keep up everything that your doing.
Be honest with yourself.
Elzani Singleton’s video documenting her hospital stay inspired me to change my life and I recommend you watch it.
From one exercise-loving vegan student to another - there is a better way.

Are you in England? Its been made so clear that in lockdown you should only exercise outside once.

Yes Jade is awful. But this is bad too. Especially since Holly has a huge garden. She doesnt need to do it. Shes just selfish.
Hey sorry! I’m currently in South West London, just outside of London, in a similar area to where Holly lives (surrounded by a few country roads and fields). I go on 2 walks a day, one in the morning before I work, and one with my family. We see *nobody*. I’m not usually one to defend Holly, but she literally is walking through the middle of no where, and sees no-one.

You cannot compare Holly, who hasn’t seen anyone apart from family in the last 3/4 months, to Jade, who has been travelling non-essentially travelling the globe. Not trying to sound rude here but let’s not get at Holly for walking in the middle of nowhere.

This is why its so unfair on those in poverty, living in cramped flats, they have no indoor or outdoor space to exercise. Yet Holly is extremely fortunate to live in a large home with plenty of outdoor space, her own spin bike and various other workout equipment with space to use.
And Holly staying inside and not going on 2 walks, locally, around deserted fields, is going to solve poverty how?????

I'll be honest, I think Holly mentioning she has an STI is incredibly disrespectful to Charlie.

I get that Holly has a platform and she has the right to share whatever details she wants about her life. Similarly, Charlie would have agreed and been comfortable to some extent to be featured on her channel in the capacity he was when they were travelling.

However, sharing intimate details about someone you've slept with is completely unfair. STIs shouldn't be shamed or stigmatised but that doesn't mean they're not embarrassing for some people; I doubt it's a detail you want openly shared on the internet. It's all well and good saying "please don't speculate" but when she's shared absolute every minute detail of her life and we all know she's only ever been sexually active with two people, it doesn't take a genius to figure out who she's referring to.

Can't imagine she asked Charlie or got his consent before posting this either as doubt they're on speaking terms, especially when she heard that news. That leaves a bitter taste in my mouth. Presumably there's a good chance Angelo also has the STI now, is this information he wanted publicly shared?

On a side note, this is exactly why Holly advocating for no condoms was incredibly naive when she has an impressionable young audience. Condoms aren't only used to prevent pregnancy; they're a barrier for sexual infections. It's all well and good having a science degree but she's nowhere near qualified to talk on these subjects, let alone dish out advice to teenagers.

She'll be 26 in December. The way she handles herself in some capacities is alarming.

I'll forever remember the reason I found this forum was because she deleted my comment suggesting she use a sharp knife when cutting her vegetables because she asked for tips on how to cut vegetables properly 😅

I cannot comprehend why she insists on exercising while on vacation. It's not like she spends the day sitting at a desk, she's walking in the heat, carrying heavy backpacks... Is that not enough physical activity for a day?

I finally figured out what I don't like about Angelo. First of all, I'm biased because I don't find him very attractive. There's nothing wrong with him per say, I'm just not into him. He's also really bland, but we also have very different interests, so again biased there. The main thing that weirds me out is that he seems to egg Holly on with her unhealthy behaviors. I liked Charlie a lot as a partner for Holly because they balanced each other. She got him to eat some vegan dishes and workout more and he got her to relax a little and try new things like drinking in moderation. Angelo seems to just exacerbate Holly's worst qualities like her know-it-all-ness, the whining and attention seeking, the childishness and acting like a teenage boy, the overexercising and undereating. She had all of these qualities before Angelo, but Angelo's own interests and issues magnify Holly's issues.

3 years for a BS and 1 for MSc ?
Is this system for real?
How come they don’t all suffer from imposter syndrome ? 😳
Let’s not get into university wars here. These courses are intense, especially at the top unis Holly’s been to. Just because it’s shorter doesn’t mean the content isn’t covered as well as a longer degree programme in the US/elsewhere.

Some graduates do have imposter syndrome but it’s unlikely to be down to lack of subject knowledge.

So, this was the first video of holly I’ve watched in a long time and purely because I like Nasir (guess she got me with her stupid click baiting 🤭).
And it was absolute torture. She has gotten so obnoxious and unlikeable. Who does she think she is?!

Holly.
If you are complaining about the routine the whole time, then don’t do it? Stop pretending like your behaviour/life is soo much better? Not drinking coffee or not having had a relationship is not a personality trait nor does it make you any better?! Why the fuck did you apply to Med school if you can’t watch him doing stitches on A DUMMY?! wtf 😂 and ps: your hair looks like that because you are probably quite severely malnourished

I don’t think it’s fair to associate (or imply an association) between veganism and anti-anything (other than animal cruelty). There are extremist accounts across every kind of “group” and this kind of post/assumption actually pees me off. Would you say the same you replaced “vegan” with a religion, political group or race?
I don’t see how they were associating veganism with antivax in their post? They just said that hollys sister follows freelee who is a well known extremist vegan antivaxer, they never said anything about any other vegans or veganism as a whole.
Also pls, veganism is literally a lifestyle you choose to follow, you can’t compare it to race lmao

I just can't cope with any of those influencers lately. Ruby, Jade, Holly... they are so toxic for their young audiences.
I was just thinking about this, the seclusion of the pandemic has really taken all three of them so much further out off touch with the reality of people's lives. all three are so rich and so privileged and understand aspects of that to varying degrees but thinking about it, holly has interacted with very very few people outside of her household and fans she hired to tutor for her and people who pay her to teach them in almost a year. it's very sad
