I have to agree. It’s actually nuts how many influencers I’ve seen jet off again. Yes, every area of the world has its own circumstances during covid - but surely they have a somewhat global audience.just catching up on here and see she’s now on holiday in Italy! I can’t tell you the amount of influencers who I’ve seen jetting off apparently thinking this is over. I feel like as someone with a huge platform they should not be promoting summer holidays in the middle of a pandemic.
I would love to travel, Italy like Amelia would be lovely. But some of my colleagues have had to between European countries during the pandemic since we work in medical technology and it is essential. One of them just recently sent to me a picture from an airplane. There were around 8 people on the plane, all of them seated far away from each other and wearing face masks, so it's not really the kind of holiday feeling that I am looking for. I did see some Spanish and Italian tourists when we went walking last weekend, so I guess it is possible and I sure wish you could be here now, we are used to seeing American tourists everywhere this time of the yearI have to agree.

Maybe it’s jealousy because I so desperately wish I could leave NY to see family and friends elsewhere or enjoy a summer vacation but can’t. And when they show the airports, they’re largely empty still so surely these guys are among the first to break lockdown.
It would be much more relatable this year if they created content around staycation tips — how to enjoy a relaxing and fulfilling holiday at home!
There is something I have heard many times during this pandemic " Just because you want this to be over and you wanna enjoy life, it does not mean that it is over just because you want this to be over, you can fool yourself all you want, but the reality is that this is far from over". So if people don't keep working on getting things under control, this can turn ugly again in a matter of days.She could have easily found a really lovely holiday in the UK, if she were willing to just think outside her little box for a moment instead of having to tick the rich girl holiday spot boxes, she could have retreated to a Scottish island with deserted white sand beaches. Theres some lovely places. Going abroad is unnecessary. The pandemic isn't over just because its summer and you think having a holiday is a right and you're bored of being at home. She seemed humbled there for a moment when her engagement fell apart and became likeable. But the endless luxury hauls when people are furloughed or have lost their jobs entirety is tone deaf. Just because she's a beauty or fashion influencer doesn't mean she gets a pass from acknowledging the real world exists.
Not to be a jerk ... but how are you expecting her to get to Scotland? She isn't gonna drive that long and would likely fly. Also a lot of countries that rely on tourism have asked for people to visit but to exercise caution and commonsense. Ultimately, life is trying to find a new normal and that includes travel. I can't wait till I can fly back to my apartment in NY and am bored of being in London with my family - whom I love!She could have easily found a really lovely holiday in the UK, if she were willing to just think outside her little box for a moment instead of having to tick the rich girl holiday spot boxes, she could have retreated to a Scottish island with deserted white sand beaches.

We have trains, or why not drive and make a road trip of it? And I didn't say she shouldn't fly. If she did it would be an hour. The UK is also a country that is relying on tourism. So why not keep it local so to speak and support what we have here? She missed an opportunity to have an adventure or find some.lux Highland hide away and promote that. If she must have a holiday. But no,not only does she have to do the cliche rich girl trip, but it involves leaving the country. My issue is more with the trekking abroad unnecessarily tbh. I understand we're living with a new normal but they've just imposed a 14 day quarantine for people returning from Spain. The new normal is still very unstable, she's behaving like theres been no pandemic. Not to mention how tacky it feels to be swanning off when people are struggling to get by. Look, I have a boyfriend whos in NY, we're.desperate to see.each other but it is what it is and we'll wait. Sometimes things are just bigger than you and your immediate wants. None of these girls seemed to have worked that out, it's more than a minor inconvenience to be shrugged off.Not to be a jerk ... but how are you expecting her to get to Scotland?

Going to Scotland creates similar risks as traveling to Italy. It still constitutes travel outside of your immediate surroundings and potentially exposing people in Scotland etc. The UK doesn't rely on tourism the way countries like Greece do for example - over 50% of their GDP is derived from the sector.We have trains, or why not drive and make a road trip of it?

Well frankly, you can think what you like. I am annoyed shes travelling at all. I expressed that, you clearly missed my point, which was that if she must insist on a holiday, close to home is better. I dont advocate any travel. And the UK does rely on tourism. Take it from someone who works in that sector.Going to Scotland creates similar risks as traveling to Italy.

If you're gonna be annoyed, be annoyed that she's traveling during this period when it might be better to stay home. But frankly it sounds like you are just looking for a reason to pick at the fact she went to Italy.
But according to her last video, she is "BLOATED" and even has to resort to wearing maternity-like tops. She says she's become an expert in "hiding the bump." Okay...View attachment 194497
I don't want to comment too much about it in case she reads here and get triggered but she's getting so tiny
Yeah... this. Especially as in the video she briefly touches on Drs not taking her seriously, saying they were concentrating on her gut when her whole body was affected.I can’t even bear to watch her videos now. She looks ill. Her arms are skeletal at this point. I do also wonder if the SIBO/IBS is just a vague excuse to practice disordered eating.
From what I remember, some years ago, when I watched the British beauty influencers, they went on frequent lunch/ dinner meetings to discuss pr/ad, etc. with the brands pr people. The pr people probably got a bit sick of her being very picky with what she eats or complaining a lot because the food choices do not suit her. If she is restricting her diet, it could cause a lot of tension because finding a place that can cater to certain diets is difficult. They could also have noticed her diet and tried to talk to her about it, but she probably got defensive.What kind of heated lunch meetings is Amelia having? She isn't CEO of a big company, she's an influencer. I found that really weird..
I hate commenting on weight and particularly on EDs in case in triggers anyone. But I hadn't really thought about the fact that SIBO could be a cover for a ED, particularly if her family have noticed weird eating behaviour. Amelia has always been small but she is getting painfully thin now.Bloat like that is very common with EDs. She is obviously very sick and not with SIBO. It’s sad to see and she shouldn‘t be filming. She needs an intervention.
