Imagine teaching your kids to never talk to strangers, then dragging them out in the middle of the night & practically force them to speak to a stranger, surrounded by people theyv never met with their phones out!
Ok, but what does that mean? What is the money being spent on? They could raise awareness by sharing stories with their millions of followers on social media, or by doing more interviews and podcasts but that doesn’t cost money. Will they be doing advertising campaigns, donating to research, to facilities at hospitals and hospices? It’s not enough to say “we’re going to help”. At some point there needs to be transparency about what people’s donations are actually doing.![]()
Ashley Cain and girlfriend Safiyya 'closer' after launch of Azaylia Foundation
The couple's eight-month-old daughter Azaylia died of cancer this year.www.google.co.uk
Ashley and Safiyya say they have used the money to launch the charity and raise awareness of disease to help alert other parents to the symptoms.
I’m sure that was less than 2% of funds raised they gave to BCH! The bikes were free and everything else seems to have been gifted1.6M has not all been spent on bike rides, buckets, McDonald’s and hotel rooms. I absolutely agree, that there needs to be more transparency around how the money is being spent. And 20K to Birmingham children’s hospital was a joke.
I wonder how much the funeral was… they had loads. Balloons, throne bench, a really fancy set up. Probably used an events set up type thing. Photographer. Etc All costs money.1.6M has not all been spent on bike rides, buckets, McDonald’s and hotel rooms. I absolutely agree, that there needs to be more transparency around how the money is being spent.

I still don’t think they have spent even 100K out of the 1.6M and they raised 50K last week. Everything has been a show, from start to finish. The way they documented the poor child dying, it should have been private. And at that point, I couldn’t stand them both. But I’ve since warmed to Saf. But when you think about him breakdancing at the funeral. Playing Luther Vandross at the grave yard, with phones out and dancing, and OTT grave decorations, now this, Messiah & endless cycling with confetti thrown on him and bull motivational speeches. You can see it’s been about him all along. It rubs me up the wrong way rotten when he says “my daughter”. So God knows what it makes Saf feel like.I wonder how much the funeral was… they had loads.

This is what happens when you open yourself up like this on the internet. There are so many weirdos out there!Omg I was just on her live and she let a lady join who was like ‘we met you earlier me and my son and I asked him ‘remember what we were shouting?’ He said no mum I don’t. She said ‘remember, let’s go champ?!’ He said ‘no I didn’t say that, I said go die in a ditch’. She was explaining to saf what her son said. Her sound has autism but she was laughing the whole time whilst saying it. It kicked off on live. I was so shocked. Saf looked mortified and removed her ASAP from the live. Wth like
Exactly there’s no control over who says what. Someone did recommend she have a social media cleanse or break which would be great but maybe it’s her coping mechanism. But Regardless as you said it’s part and parcel of having your life out there open to millions to comment and criticise.. sad but trueThis is what happens when you open yourself up like this on the internet. There are so many weirdos out there!
It just doesn’t even make any sense. At least try to pretend to give a tit about her and book her into the same hotel. What was the point in her being there if she’s in a different hotel, up on her own at night whilst Ashley and the team eat together, Stay in the same hotel and get massages. He might as well just tell her to not come along at all the way he is acting isn’t far off thatThe fact they stayed there n separate hotel rooms. She stayed in a room with two single beds. One remained unoccupied the whole night. She was talking about Ashley and the boys having massages somewhere (I’m assuming in their separate rooms) and how she wanted one but had no idea what was going on. Bless her she stayed up drinking irn bru, Pepsi and tea cakes with us on Instagram live. One thing I will say though is that she’s GREAT at ignoring negative messages. She won’t even entertain the trolls or acknowledge them. Inside it must hurt though.
I hope it is. After the whole she can’t do it just for the last leg talk, it would be hypocritical to let someone else hop on at the end.Ohh she just said from tomorrow there is going to be a new recruit! Is she going to be allowed to join for parts of it. I really, really hope so, as I think it will give her a distraction and help her feel a real part of it, which she obviously wants.
Exactly this! It was so very sad watching her order her curry and eat it. Whilst talking to the approx 1500 strangers that were on her live. WhereIt just doesn’t even make any sense.

No matter what they feel now they were BOTH her parents and they BOTH run the foundation, it’s just super odd to be staying in seperate hotels and not even having meals together as part of the foundation team even if it’s not as a couple
