If her husband did cheat, I don’t feel sorry for her as she treated him absolute dog shit for years. She was constantly bitching about him blatantly on instagram to millions of people. You do not do that to your partner if you love them and genuinely care about them. She is constantly complaining about how hard her life is when she is such a privileged woman and the amount of luxuries she has, yet her moaning bitching and crying for woe is me has no bounds. I’ve even stopped following her because she is extreme unbearable. Even now, she wants people to keep buying her books and preordering it so Anna can get famous. That is all she cares about. She wouldn’t stop throwing her poor son under the bus and blasting his neurodivergent issues on instagram either. It is always ‘I’m having an awful day and have been crying because my son has emotional issues.’ I would be so upset if my mum did that to me.
- Notice
Accidentally gave her friend a dinosaur as a Christmas present. Unplugged the Gro Clock and the kids woke up at 3am. Forgot nursery was shut today. Thought she was having a hot flush but it’s okay Tarun just cranked the car temperature to 28 degrees - what is he like??!??
Her life is so chaotic and crazy! Wpuld
Forget her head of it wasn’t screwed on! Just like us mums! Luckily, she’s always got her phone with her to make sure each hilarious mishap is recorded for our benefit. What zany thing will happen to her next!?
Her feed is like a shitty BBC sitcom script that didn’t make it past the pilot.

Would love to, but when this rare occasion happens I need to:
Put a wash on/empty the dishwasher/reply to a kids party invitation/put clothes away/hoover the crumbs from the sofa/text to check in on my mum/arrange a GP appt etc etc. Gah. So smug and unrelatable. Just feels massively shaming to mums who don't have help.

‘When you’ve historically and chronically put the needs of others before yourself’ - how can she not see that she is the complete opposite of this?! Also, it pretty much comes with the territory of having 3 young children - it’s difficult and if your no.1 priority in life is ‘having your needs met’ at all times then perhaps don’t have kids...
Of course parents (mums AND dads) need time out and no-one is saying you must live a life of drudgery but she seems to take absolutely no pleasure in her family. It’s just something to rail against and moan about.

Was just thinking the same. Other mums are usually pretty keen to chat (it’s easier said than done though if you’ve each got a toddler running in different directions) and I wouldn’t hesitate to ask for a spare wipe or nappy bag. Don’t need a ribbon for permission.
TBH now if I see someone with a big jaunty ribbon on their bag it will remind me of Anna and I’ll avoid them. Don’t need any basic Anna fan girls in my life
Exactly this!! She seems to have a lovely life, but goodness me the moaning about it! I get that Tarun works long hours and that must be hard sometimes, but she has a nanny, a cleaner, gardener, a lovely home and no money worries. Honestly, my life is the complete opposite to hers and I rarely moan about it.
How is she fucking overwhelmed by every goddamn mundane facet of daily life? Kids are off school = overwhelm. Kids are back at school = overwhelm. Going away for the weekend = overwhelm. Staying at home for the weekend = overwhelm. Working = overwhelm. Time off = overwhelm.
If she’s as regularly overwhelmed to the extent that she claims she is, she needs to get the hell off social media and get some help for her mental health urgently.
Or stop lying for the likes.

“Hi guys, I’ve just popped on to show you how thin grief has made me. I’ll keep panning my camera up and down my tiny body to show off…I mean, tell you about these wonderful leggings I’ve bought.” 
apologies if I sound mean, but come on!
apologies if I sound mean, but come on!I know this is an old quote but I thought I'd bring this up. The media idea of 'self care' is this sexy, face mask, candle lit bath, saying no to coffee with the mum you don't really like anyway and taking an extra 10 minutes in bed to snooze the alarm. Self care itself is actually very different, it should be restorative and purposeful. If you're depressed the simple act of cleaning your teeth is self care... self care has been sold to rich, middle class white women as little 'niceties' in the day and it totally devalues it. Rant over.

I always enjoyed her Insta and found it helpful. I unfollowed when she was pregnant with Florence for personal reasons. I re-followed when Florence was a bit older.
I feel totally sucked in. I’m an educated professional but it’s taken me reading these threads to see the light!
I bought the course and the Know Your Worth book. I see her all the time “fitting in” yoga or a fitness class when I can barely do anything. But I’m out of the house by 7:30 and back at 5 if I’m lucky (usually later). Then I am being a mum, have to look after the house etc and often start working again.
Thanks for the clarity here.

I was oblivious to her antics until lately. I always felt crap after seeing her posts and stories as she made out she achieved so much workwise on top of all the extra responsibilities of childcare, housework etc. And she would always say it's because she has high functioning anxiety. Now I see her through a more clearer lense of someone just trying to upsell and cross sell her books, courses and affiliated products and she has a slick marketing and PR machine behind her. Can't believe I fell for the con for so long.

It is an affair- a friend of mine has kids at the same school as the other woman…
imagine if she was a GP, people would be terrified of her “clumsiness” and “forgetfulness”. So why do people trust her with their mental health? Surely you’d want to see someone who’s got their shit together and isn’t a manipulative liar. She’s no better than those fake psychics pretending to help and ripping people off. She should be struck off.

So now she’s lost weight/muscle because of recent trauma and grief. For goodness sake, either say what’s happened or don’t mention it again. Whatever has happened hasn’t stopped her going to the zoo, being on podcasts or plugging her book
She gives me mean girl vibes. She is extremely bitchy and passive aggressive towards Tarun. She kept moaning and moaning about him for years on her Instagram and only stopped when we mentioned it here. I won't be surprised if she has a secret account on here to bitch about other influencers. She gives me Clemmie hooper 2.0 edition vibes.
So guys, even though I am a psychotherapist who lives and works in Surrey, and has amazing access to a network of fellow professionals in this field, can you, my readers, please recommend a local ASD/ADHD specialist? Obviously I can't find one discretely without telling the internet. I must let everyone know how hard my life is. So, so hard. And yet, I respect my children's privacy so much.
