Lmao are people expecting Sam to become a freedom fighter or something? She is a visibly mixed race woman who grew up with predominately white people and no stable black family influences in her life. She grew up hating the hair that grows out of her head and only really identifying with white people and white culture, despite the fact that being visibly non white in the UK means you will forever be somewhat ostracised and will never fully fit in with white people. This is partially and potentially even the main cause of her very low self esteem and emotional and mental issues she's dealt with most of her life. Sam very clearly lived in a bubble, as most people with childhood trauma and emotional neglect tend to do and just went through life struggling but unable to identify the causes of her issues. She herself has admitted she was very ignorant about a lot of things with race, ethnicity, and her own identity. This year she had the major shake up of the breakdown of her marriage, a global pandemic and a movement about black racial justice that took the world by storm. The fact that all of these things have allowed her to explore her identity, grapple with her issues and to try and make sense of them is .... fine? In what universe could that constitute as virtue signalling? She isn't suddenly writing a book about Black Lives Matter or launching a T-Shirt line? I can't imagine how her posting about injustices on her ig stories is bad or 'armchair activism'. Spreading awareness to her 1000's of followers, some who (like herself not too long ago) might have been totally unaware of a lot of this stuff.

quite cheeky of him considering that’s how his ex makes a living and he was pretty comfy when he was living off all her money.

he was a kept man because of her! Cheek!

Jason despises social media, but had the nerve to make a gofundme page for new video and photography equipment lol

This is obviously not new but interesting to see that Ricky & Jason had a fight about the whole situation on tumblr. Didn‘t know that that happened!

I wonder where that attitude was when Jason decided to throw one of Indie's toys into Sammi's face hard and posted the video TikTok thinking it was hilarious. He's such a little weasel. All too happy to look like the knight in shining armour for Sammi on Tumblr, yet a few years later decides to throw an object at the face of the same girl, now his wife, who has been a victim of abuse.

You have got to be so careful of men who swoop into your life with a saviour complex after you've just come out of an abusive relationship. So many are narcissists with emotionally abusive tendencies themselves.

This isn’t about Sam specifically but not sure where else to post it. So, Sammi’s sister’s partner has followed me on Instagram for a good while now, I think since they started going out pretty much. Not sure how he found my account, maybe I commented on Danni or Sam’s Instagram posts all that time ago.

Anyway, he‘s always liked and commented on my photos here and there, but yesterday he went through some of my selfies from over the last year he’s also creeped into my DMs a couple times which I’ve ignored. He seems like such a sleaze.

!!! :O

I am so fucking over botox and filler being marketed towards young women as some kind of empowering thing to do. She can't even raise her eyebrows anymore, and her eyes don't crease when she laughs. That's just depressing. There's something seriously sad about women getting these treatments to the point where they can't even express emotions properly anymore. I hope she gets therapy.

I'm so happy for her - she deserves so much better

New to this thread purely because I can't believe she has a thread.
Obviously I'm going to catch up an read but I don't see a problem with her and I've been watching her yt for so long but then I cut yt off, and recently found out she broke up.
I love her new found confidence to be HERSELF you can see completely how much happier she is. Even watching I was like who is this person!?
My two pence worth anyway, I'm a fan

1. She has abandoned 2 dogs. First, she gave up her dog Riley after Indie was born. Clearly couldn't handle 2 dogs + a human baby. Made some excuse about how the two dogs (who had been living together just fine for a while) suddenly became aggressive and couldn't cohabit together. Shortly thereafter they bought Odin from a breeder (which she went on to promote publicly) because they wanted a designer puppy with 'rare coloring'. Buying overbred dogs is completely unethical in itself, but in Sammi's case it was even worse considering they had given up Riley specifically for the reason that Franklin wasn't fit to live with other dogs. Why would it be better with Odin? As expected, she didn't bother training Odin or even walking him. Only 6 months later she gave him up and, for a while, tried to get away with not telling her audience, hoping if she ignored his absence people just wouldn't notice. She deleted all comments asking about him, but the refuge who rescued him posted pictures on Facebook so she was exposed. She basically treats her animals like she does her handbags -- she gets that initial dopamine rush from purchasing something new, but then that feeling dissipates almost instantly and they become disposable.
2. She let her (ex)husband take advantage of her audience. Jason set up a gofundme for himself asking for £30,000 and Sammi promoted it, asked her audience to donate money to him, encouraged him to pursue this venture. Supposedly he wanted the money so he could make a documentary, but sure enough the doco's never seen the light of day. Not the first or only time she was complicit to Jason's dodgy behavior. Whenever he made offensive comments or did problematic things she would complain about people not understanding, haters, cancel culture, or whatever, and actually be very condescending to her viewers.
3. Even just focusing solely on her 'work' and putting her private life aside (even though in her case her work life and private life are intrinsically connected so the latter is still a very relevant topic in my opinion) -- her content is vapid, empty, irregular, and repetitive. She hasn't progressed at all in all the time she's been on Youtube, in fact she's been declining for years (in terms of views, relevance, engagement, creativity -- everything). She has nothing of substance to talk about or share. It's been the same lookbooks and mental health vlogs (the whole "I'm lost", "I feel stuck on youtube", "I don't know what to do with my life" spiel on repeat) for years. She has no drive, no work ethic, no passion for what she does. She's the least eloquent person I've probably ever seen on Youtube. She can't form coherent sentences so it's pretty astounding to me that she speaks on camera for a living. She also never keeps up with any of her projects or ideas. She never sees anything through.
4. I don't think she's a very good example for someone who has hundreds of thousands of young women following her. She clearly has major confidence issues that transpire through her social media presence. I'm not even going to go into the issues she's had dealing with her identity and race because that's a whole other topic -- so putting that aside, she's obsessed with cosmetic surgery and procedures to an unhealthy degree, and literally can't seem to be able to post a picture of herself without putting a filter on it or editing the shit out of it. She has ruined her face/body over the years to the point that she doesn't even look like herself anymore. In that respect she's posted some very questionable videos talking about the 'golden ratio' (the 'perfect' face) and some other shit, which is very problematic in my opinion.

These are the first things that come to my mind right now. I could probably go on but can't be bothered to be honest. If you're such a 'fan' I'm not sure why you are here. As glad as I am that she finally left this scumbag husband of hers, I don't really see much of a deep change in her. Everything is extremely superficial and surface-level. It honestly doesn't seem like she takes her job seriously at all or has much respect for her viewers (without whom she would be nowhere and would not have the life she does now).

" has emotional intelligence and their shit together "; so his total opposite

Her new TikTok where she's lip syncing to a true crime documentary is so gross and weird to me. I don't get her. She claims everything is great and cool with Jason and that he's great, but constantly makes references to how terrible men are and how her life is so much better now. It's bollox.

I also think for an adult woman to be using a clip from a true crime doc is in very bad taste. She's admitted to being a true crime fan, so presumably she knows that that clip is from an interview where (I'll put this in spoiler tag. TW violence & murder)

Angela Simpson - a severely mentally ill woman - invited a disabled man who was a wheelchair user to her house for sex, then tortured and dismembered him for three days before murdering him and attempting to burn the body.

It's one thing for teenagers not to understand the weight of using a clip like that to look cool and edgy. This woman is 31, apparently she is "spiritually woke" and has a child. The more she posts, the less I like her. What is her problem?! It's like she left her husband and has regressed to a teenage state. I don't understand who these people are who keep bigging her up in her comments, I assume they are also women in their late 20s/early 30s who cannot deal with adulthood.

Manipulated by the BLM movement......what does that even mean lol. The girl is half black so if she has decided she wants to embrace a side of her that she up until now ignored, she's fully within her right. BLM movement is just timely but I promise we ain't tryna force people.

I’m really excited for her. Maybe some people find themselves and true happiness later on in life? And that’s great!

I feel like Jason was toxic for her, even when they lived together it was like this really dark and gloomy flat. Now she’s in her own place she seems to be healthier mentally, her place is nice, she’s a good mum. She’s still young tbh, she has her daughter, she could take her finances more seriously and this new guy I hope will treat her and Indie really well.

She’s had a shit time with men and I’ve followed her so long I would love a happy ending for her.

I think there’s way too much pressure to get all your shit together in your 20’s and she could be an example of the fact that it’s ok to be on your own timeline.

Absolutely this. I moan about her on here but I actually like Sam, she’s not as narcissistic as a lot of influencers are. The new guy looks super attractive from the few blurry pics we’ve seen, and more importantly Sam looks really happy.

She’s clearly done a lot of hard work on herself behind the scenes. Not to say being with a black partner means anything specifically, but she was always very removed from black ppl in general in the past and now the past few years she’s embraced her hair more, and seemingly become more comfortable with that side of herself. I def couldn’t have imagined 2010 Sammi or 2014 Sammi would be rocking braids and happily coupled up with a black man.

Plus she actually has female friends now and seems to be having a much more sociable and outgoing lifestyle which is so good to see. I’ll always roll my eyes at how she almost always only brings Indie up to complain about something, but she’s raising a happy, healthy and well adjusted child all on her own and I’ll commend her for that.

I’d actually love her to do one of those girl chat vids of hers to talk about all of these positive changes, it is absolutely lovely to see someone really blooming in their 30s when we women are taught to think life is downhill after 25.

I REGISTERED JUST TO WRITE HOW FUCKING HAPPY I AM. Sam is so much better off! He was SO TOXIC.

These people will really do anything to avoid getting a job

I think it’s just that she doesn’t post every time she has Indie. Jason, on the other hand, appears to be one of those guys that just has to tell the world he is doing his (obligated) dad duties, which gives the impression he has her more. Which I doubt. I remember one time Sammi went on a solo trip and suddenly Jason was posting loads of stories of him looking after Indie, showing him getting up early to feed her etc. It was like someone documenting their first babysitting experience... it was very bizarre. It was so obvious that he wasn't normally part of that routine.

Sammi was loud enough about supporting BLM but when it came to an old friend fighting for life she was quietly supportive? I cannot believe that. Sam is just as empty and hollowed out as we thought

Don't be ridiculous, the two aren't comparable at all?

Posting about BLM on social media brings awareness to the cause in (the often misguided hope) that it'll bring about social change.

Posting about Grace does nothing for her or her condition whatsoever, that's all in the hands of the doctors. Tbh if Sammi had posted some meaningless platitude like "Omg just heard the news, absolutely devastating. Thoughts and prayers with Grace and her family x", she'd get criticised for attention seeking and making herself centre of the issue when the two aren't really friends like that.

I'm not really sure what you, or anyone else arguing that Sammi should make a post about Grace, actually gets out of her doing that? It's very redundant. I get this is a gossip site but this is nitpicking to the extreme.

Oh Sammi. I hope you find happiness now, with or without a man. Concentrate on you and that gorgeous little girl of yours.

Just in case anyone was wondering how Jason was doing

He’s out here looking in his early fourties. Also noticeably hasn’t ticked the “has children” function on Hinge
