To me it’s like her kids are an inconvenience, she can’t do what she wants when she wants, well what a bloody shame, boo hoo, it’s called being a mom, god I really stand her so let’s hope and pray she doesn’t come back but we all know that won’t happen and No I hardly watch any tv and that includes the American tripe she loves so much!

At the end of the day, all these ‘famous’ Instagram ‘stars’ are just human & prone to make mistakes. I mean, if politicians with their advisors & spin doctors can duck up then so can the likes of BM & Meldrum.
Now that’s sort of acceptable if you realise what you’ve done & then you apologise & admit how stupid/misinformed you’ve been. Most people would respect you for that, even if their perception of you has changed.
However, our ‘holier than thou’ Z Listers think they’re better than that. They either ignore the whole situation all together hoping that their loyal, amoeba-brain fans will forget the whole thing, or they claim they’re being bullied & mentally attacked by trolls.
That’s the big problem here. Over inflated egos & lack of balls. Emma’s run off again to lick her wounds (god, the literal thought of that has made me retch) & I’m guessing poor old sap Stephen is now on constant ‘Shower Watch’, along with his usual list of never ending jobs.....

I think it's worrying that her life revolves around television. First thing in the morning, all afternoon.
However am aware I've just spent 5 mins typing this on a gossip site so who am I to judge 🤣what do you all think? How much tv do you watch?
I totally agree and the quality of tv she watches is dire, it’s all really poor quality reality tv. There is some great drama being released at the moment, really good story telling that hooks you in but her viewing is dire.

Sitting around in your dressing gown watching telly is just depressing, she is 40 and thinks she is old. It’s really odd.

I was talking about exactly this earlier, and I wrote about this earlier on SV’s thread, I have copied it over here as I think it relevant. The top bit is the post I was responding to...

The fact that she took the same approach she did with her old tweets in private with the mother of a disabled child (you’d think that would make someone humbler/more circumspect even if only out of social embarrassment, at the very least!) when it would have cost her absolutely nothing to do the right thing makes me a lot more dubious about her. Most people have an aversion to hurting someone’s feelings, and by the sounds of it this was not something where the hurt feelings were over something fundamentally benign. So it is troubling that SV’s instinct was to do nothing.
I really respect the posts you have made in this discussion, you have raised some interesting points. I really think that your point about Susie‘s instinct to do nothing is particularly of interest. (This is referring to the situation discussed about, not the tweets)

I don’t think Susie is alone in this instinct. There are multiple posts across the website where people have contacted influencers about posts they have made and the general response is block/delete. There appears to be an arrogance level based on followers that means these influencers are untouchable or unquestionable.

Pictures of children naked in the bath are posted regularly if questioned...block/delete.
One influencers children were apparently found on a porn site in their swimming costumes, someone contacted them...guess what? Block/delete and then she posted pictures that day in their swim suits.

There is an influencer accepting paypal payments that she claims she is using to fund work with DV victims, people have asked for a newsletter or information about where that money they have given goes...guess what...block/delete.

I agree with your comments earlier on about cancel culture, people do make mistakes and conversations about changing behaviour should happen, I understand your link to the olden days about people being put in the stocks and mocked however there are very few influencers who will ever accept they make mistakes.

They seem to be living on a level of self importance, where they can do no wrong and will be fluffed up their followers if any one dares question their behaviour. That can’t be good for society as a whole. A lot of people come to tattle who were originally fans of the people they now discuss, because when they questioned any behaviour they got deleted and then realised through this site they weren’t alone.

As soon as anyone on Social Media is questioned they simplify it down to ‘troll’.

There needs to be an understanding that asking questions about stories, posts, advice shared, adverts etc, questions that might be uncomfortable aren’t trolling. This discussion just isn’t happening in Instagram, actually it might be there probably are a small number of influencers who will have it but I just haven’t seem it.

I think the simplicity of the situation at the moment is you are either a fan or a troll has led to the cancel culture being more prominent. I should be able to follow someone on Instagram and ask them a question without being deleted, in the same way that they should be able to make a mistake without worrying about instant cancellation.

This leads to influencers who are nervous about being caught out. There is almost an unhealthy level of emotion on each side, and it does feel like sides when really there should be discussion happening somewhere in the middle.

I hope this makes sense and is obviously a wider discussion that just SV, I’d be interested in what you think.

*Id also be interested in what any of the 2170 guests think...I reckon there are a few influencers hiding in that number. You can stay anonymous but are welcome to join the debate.

I feel like she needs this time away (don’t agree with the need to tell everyone, just do it) but she needs it. Needs to check her behaviour, check her language and look after herself. I think the last few weeks have proved she’s not stable. Constant need for approval (silly polls), contradicting herself left, right and centre and most importantly the racist language she has used this week.
I genuinely don’t think she means the stuff she says to come across the way it does, I think she’s just so frantic to post content she does it without thinking.

I agree she needs to step back but I also think she is hoping the BLM movement doesnt last so she doesnt feel obligated to say token statements and can continue to post shite about Disney and cinnamon rolls.

That’s the thing, NO ONE was pretending to be her husband. Someone made a PARODY Instagram account. And it stated in the bio it was a parody account brummydaddyof2 or something it was called and it posted pictures of Mickey Mouse with the most hilarious captions. It was one of the funniest times on this thread. Then brummy got it shut down and threatened to get the police involved accusing people of trying to impersonate her husband. She is absolutely despicable
So they never posted photos of Stephen or claimed to be him? 😐

Bloody hell, wouldn’t be surprised if she claimed every other Emma Conway on Instagram is a catfish of her.

Nope and she only found out because she reads here or her manager read here.

Every time she says shes taking time off Instagram. It’s a stunt. It’s a ploy for attention and sympathy to take the attention away from her racism / domestic violence jokes / whatever. She’s always caught being online and active on IG. She had an addiction.

She needs “cancelled” there’s been too many really serious things that have happened with Emma. She is completely toxic.

I can see her taking time out because she has ran out of ideas for lockdown but world events are rightly providing her with content. She could highlight disney films with BAME characters in. She had to mention this morning she was going stir crazy with only being out the house once to the garden centre. She could hop out for a walk at any point during the day. She forgets shes had meet ups with her friends and family since lock down measures have been relaxed a little. It has been her choice not to go to the shops. Toby and Roo have continued to share resources this week relating to BLM. It's just not Emma's thing- she just does things to fit in with everyone. She doesnt even need to post everyday. I hope that she manages to get some clear headspace and not be as down and uptight for her own sake and her family.

This. And iirc she 'took time off' after Erin had her op and ended up back online after less than a week! No doubt it'll be the same this time around. She'll be posting again by Wednesday.

I found a video of her and Stephen where they were doing a Q and A video. He looked like he'd rather be anywhere else and the answers he gave were just so dull. But one of the questions for him to answer about Emma from a subscriber was " What is Emma good at?" And he genuinely said " watching YouTube videos and sleeping".



This is it.



Sorry, the question was " what can Emma spend hours doing?"

Long long time lurker here but I just watched some of this video and at about the 5.40 mark one of the questions is "who is your best friend?" and after an awkward interaction stating Stephen is her best pal he then says that Erin is her best friend...Babs then has to think for a beat to remember to mention Ethan, both then repeating it in a way that they are trying to convince themselves that it could be possibly be true that Ethan is her best friend....The fact that Stephen is even saying Erin is her best friend without giving a thought about Ethan shows how much she must favour her! I dont have kids and I suppose yes you may have favourites but surely you must he careful about what you put out in the public!

I think she spends way too much time on social media. She posts as soon as she gets up in the morning then continues to post all day until last thing at night. No wonder she's finding home schooling hard, she probably never puts her phone down for long enough to help her children. Same goes for all that 'work' she has to do as well.
I think some time off will be good for her and I think she needs to post less instagram stories when she comes back. I think she needs to spend more time with her family instead of sticking her phone in their faces 24/7.

Can we also acknowledge the fact that she wasn’t even content with 1 Instagram account anymore. 42 year old mother of 2 running 2 instagrams posting constantly, a blog, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube. It’s ridiculous.
She constantly posts half naked pictures of herself, constant references to her tits and fanny, constantly touching herself, yet tries to run a family friendly Disney blog on the side aswell?! You can’t have it all.

I’m sorry but if I see one more influencer moaning about their privileged lives I will scream. Just seen one of my favourite YTers, usually fairly non-problematic, has announced that she is having a ‘bad mental health day’ and is going to take a week off.

I know everyone is going through their own tit and ‘has it hard’ in different ways rn. I know that.

But this influencer is child free, young, healthy, living with her parents probably rent free in their huge lovely house, she is comfortably off money wise, is slim and very pretty. Her job is done entirely from home and she’s quite a homebody anyway based on her vlogs. What exactly are her problems?! She can’t see her mates for a bit?!

Of course she may have stuff going on that we don’t know, but regardless, how can she (and Brummy, and so many others like them) complain publicly when they have followers who are SO much less fortunate than them, who are struggling at the moment to afford to eat / single parents looking after kids with additional needs / key workers having to distance from their own families / people who have lost people to the virus. Just WTF. Get some bleeping perspective. 🙄

As bsw123 alluded to earlier the reason so many of these instamums are disappearing into the ether at this point is they are so unwilling to put their money where their mouth is when it comes to BLM/the anti-racism movement that they're making their escape until it all 'blows over'. Brummy for one knows that she can't articulate anything on the topic without bleeping up royally so, instead of addressing her own inherent faults, she'd rather play the MH card and wait until it's safe to return. Despicable.

‘I started the pandemic when’ Emma you didn’t start anything you absolute cock. Not everything is about you 🙄

I’m finding my job and general lockdown life stressful too. Wish I could just take an indeterminate amount of time off 😂

While I'm on a rant 🤣, Emma when you read this - the ship has sailed when it comes to saying 'in 2013 I sat on my bed and bought a domain...' in some humble way as if that excuses upsetting people and mis-educating your audience. You have strategically and purposefully built up that 110k following and the drum you bang to brands when you approach them directly is very different isn't it with your 'award winning vlogger' titles and you're more than happy to take thousands of pounds from them per advert. You are not a mum sitting on her bed buying a domain now, you are a business owner with 7 years experience behind her. No other profession allows people to go "when I entered training school on day 1..." This is exactly where you wanted to be but it's a whole package and you can't just have the nice bits. If you did it properly you wouldn't even have the bad bits. Just grow up ffs. You're only taking a break until all the 'grown up talk' dies down as it's all a bit too much like hard work at the moment isn't it yet you charge brands well over £5k per you tube video, presumably because you class yourself as an expert at this game.
