Imagine being on the holiday of a lifetime in New York and spending your time writing passive aggressive Instagram captions about how unappreciative everyone is that you give them this wonderful content FOR FREE!! OMG! And then to turn it all around & beg for likes!! Shameless

Kudos in her acknowledgment, quite like what she said about tattle, she didn't call us trolls or sado's ?
She obviously has had some horrible and abusive dm's and showed the evidence. However I suspect those are not from tattlers as never really seen talk like that here.

I agree, the DMs she shared were horrible & quite separate from the criticism on here

I’m guessing she assumes people call her large because that is one of her own hang ups. The only thing mentioned here was about her putting up how many steps they’d walked.
The only thing people really say about her here is that they used to really like her because she was relatable and down to earth and now all she does is shop shop shop abs talk about Disney with her exaggerated expressions

That dm was awful. I don't think she gets to much of a hard time in here. Whenever I resd a book or see a film I always look up the reviews becaue I love to know what other people thought of it. That's what this site is like for me - I don't know anyone that watches the vlogs so I like to know what other people think of them. Also a place to write what you want without it being deleted

To be honest, when I've watched her videos, I never even notice her size. I don't think she is that large, maybe a little overweight, but not massively.

I only ever notice the endless piles of cheap crap tat from tat shops.

Yes unlike meldrum she’s backed up her nasty dm’s with screenshots although I’d probably have included the user ID!

Again my frustration with her content is that I used to love her content and longed for more uploads but it’s just not the same and I don’t know why. Love the kids, cute and funny but maybe a bit too much of them again now? I don’t know. Her videos are popular obviously but I feel if she had continued on the same path she might have grown more?

She’s always had people messaging nasty comments about weight and looks. I’m not condoning that and it must be hard no matter what front you put on but unfortunately I think as she doesn’t conform to the youtubers yummy mummy stereotype she does get targeted by large shamers etc. It’s not even as if she’s that big. She’s what you would affectiianocall cuddly. Yes yes I know that’s still sizest I speak as a size 16 myself though.

God reading that back it sounds like im
Being horrible to her now. I’m not. I don’t have any issue with size looks etc. Just the endless piles of excessive stuff. And the over exaggerated mannerisms. She’s always been a loud personality but it seems to be even more exaggerated now.

I find her so annoying! I used to really like her but echo others who say that she has become so full of herself. I live in the states, and she has completely wasted her time in New York, buying so much junk and feeding her kids so much crap. The other thing that gets to me, and my best friend has met her in real life is her little boy is apparently incredibly badly behaved, (i have two kids so I know they are not perfect etc), but I truly truly believe her kids would be better if she didn't feed them so much crap, and do some sort of a healthy lifestyle.

I think she's getting too much stick over this co sleeping. Do any of you have children who wake a lot during the night? It's exhausting. She did say it was a short term solution and actually don't think it's that uncommon but people just don't admit to it for fear of this sort of reaction!!!
Well said!

I hate this the comment we produce for free balls! Not just brummy. A few have done it. If you weren’t compensated and paid in some way you wouldn’t still be doing it. It’s like comparing yourself to a tv show. We can watch that for free as long as we pay our tv licence so by paying for our internet provider we can watch any youtubers or instagrammer but even if you I’ve your job you get paid. Oh and not to forget the freebies that might come along with it.

It’s not public service tv. It’s not provided for free. Would Zoella have carried in if she hadn’t made money? Would Louise Pentland? Would any of the gamer youtubers? Would the Inghams? Would Brummy? NO!!! They start as a hobby but deep down they all wanted to make money from it. And wouldn’t continue if no money was coming in

The boy is crying out for attention but she would much rather talk into her phone, camera,, rummage around in Poundland or give her girl the attention! No wonder he is badly behaved

To be fair, she has acknowledged this a number of times.
Then why doesn't she discipline him, and do something about it? All she seems to do is shove him in front of ipads and feed him sugar, while moaning about her very patient husband.

I live in the US so I’ve enjoyed seeing her fannying around NY but...that photograph outside the 9/11 memorial was totally inappropriate. For ducks sake show some respect.

I've often wondered this myself, particularly with her experience as a teacher, and a good one by all accounts. I don't want to judge her because we only see edited highlights of her life but from what I can see he's six and still tantrumming like a toddler. Maybe she's trying to keep her kids as babies for as long as possible? The crying on each birthday because they're getting older ... can you imagine when Erin brings a boyfriend home?

Exactly, I follow a lot of bloggers and truly have never commented on a forum, but like I said, my friend has met her many times at soft play, and the little boy is horrific. It's not his fault, but she clearly has her priorities mixed up. He's 6 now, my three year old behaves better.

They really are! If only she spoilt her poor husband once in a while. Trust me, I am not a fan of women do everything, and love seeing men do their share, but all she does at home is put her crap away.

Glad to see people have called her out on all the plastic bags! (Mentioned it in her stories) Poor excuse “that’s how they package things here”. If you didn’t take your own bag(s) for the first of many days shopping for tat then at least re-use the ones you got then, on the subsequent days!
