Bethany Rutter

I don't remember. Is her husband only poet or has he a real job?

I think she’s said before he works at the Barbican. I’m not sure what he does but I have a vague memory she’s mentioned that he’s an usher. That was a while ago though so

I wonder if she is (at least partially?) bank rolled by her parents.

I also think she is slightly hypocritical given that she’s done the whole “fuck flattering” thing (quite rightly - why should plus-size people have to disguise or choose “flattering” clothes to hide themselves away).

She constantly does the pouty face and chooses a certain camera angle at all times which does make her appear slimmer - rarely a proper full “front on” image.

Agree - she looks much larger in candid shots than in the outfit photos she approves and that is fine but it also shows that she's concerned about how big she appears which is slightly given her stance.

She had 10 years to turn that idea into a book and didn't lol, what a spoofer

This is very petty of me but she's ruined a beautiful blanket with her colour choices

She should have done bright colours...looks like bacon!

Some of her new earrings look like Ice Gems.

And some of them are £18.50!!!

She’s actually just thin now. Does she have to cancel herself?

I'd say Bethany was definitely inspired to make fimo earrings after buying some. But the earring designs aren't copied.

Bethany's designs are so crap in comparison!

 

[Artaud]

Her earrings truly look like something a seven year old child would make out of a crafting kit from Argos and their parents would have to pretend to like them. Even her most loyal followers must see Bethany is milking them until a better opportunity comes along.

Pretty sure those black bits will flake off before long. She hasn't bothered rolling them into a flat sheet.

Interesting to see her not shot from above like she usually does for her outfit photos.

I am new to this thread. I came across BR on twitter and follow her on instagram. I find her pouty selfies annoying too

Omg who is this?!

It's one of the plus-size crowd who has about 57 followers on twitter, who thought she was interesting enough for us tattlers to chat shit about. Found the original tweet from Dani's thread:

Yeah!

She hates when people lose weight and sees it as a personal attack. This has been well documented!

 

[Greenlentils]

'Chunky lil Bert goes trot trot trot'

 

[queenamber]

So gross. Feels like she's always documenting it as a way to prove fat people can be athletic. Now that she's lost lots of weight it just feels tedious.

 

[lucrecia]

And this is why I don't pity her if she gets shit from her peers. It would be of her own making.

She won't. That piece was very much of its time, I feel like a lot of these snacktivist grifters have moved on from that very doctrinaire stance. There is one I follow for lols called Fat Girl Flow who used to sing a very similar song: she derided anyone who lost weight and actually dedicated entire ten minute videos to calling out individuals for losing weight. Now, she seems to have lost a certain amount herself, and is clearly becoming impatient with her partner who is so obese that they are practically bedbound.

Really cheaping out on the earring backs

 

[heretoreaditall2019]

The blue ones would be surprisingly cute if a child made them, but what are theeeeese? Also what are these cheap tetanus giving hoops about!

 

[Eurgh]

That blogger had ten years to turn her "idea" into a book .

Bethany is a bellend but this doesn't seem like much of a scandal to me.

She might have tried to. She doesn’t have all Bethany’s family connections in the industry. Probs why she’s bitter. I would be. Tbh the book and the blog sound shit.

 

[queenamber]

Yes. Her dad is an agent to film and TV performers and I believe from inherited wealth too. Her husband’s family are loaded. She is astoundingly rich. The kind of rich that knows how to just skirt over the exact numbers so if you aren’t you won’t clock it immediately.
It’s not that hidden though: she basically doesn’t work, the parents bought the house, she can only eat eggs from hens called Gertrude and notice her gym do not give sponsorship or influencer perks and their membership starts about £150 a month.

She is hoping her Vinted habit, bus trips and love of Greggs hid the trust fund baby truth.

Do you know her IRL? Her husband doesn't seem wealthy at all to me!! This is the same man who was selling badges made from his hair

It's virtually impossible to outtrain a bad diet so she is definitely engaging in intentional weight loss, but she's painted herself into a corner now because woe betide anyone from the bopo circle who admits that actually, life is better when you're not fat anymore (and not just because of "fatphobia", your body is literally under less strain and feels better!)

This is what I mean. I go to the gym, walk, swim etc most days but I still haven't lost such an amount of weight in such a short time. It just doesn't seem to add up. Find the whole thing pretty disingenuous, to either suggest the weight is just falling off due to exercise or that it's being aided in some way. Either way it's bullshit.
