Hahahahaha 😂 bargain! Bet she got 4 pairs all with her own wage nothing to do with instagram affiliating!

So she’s wearing a £280ish belt, a £700+ Louis Vuitton handbag, and £275 shoes... see this is why I cannot relate to Danielle! She’s exactly the same as all the other instagrammers. She’s making a big buck off swipe ups.

All whilst living in a mid terraced house worth approx £130,00. Not that there's anything wrong with that but she likes to 'do it for the gram' in terms of her designer purchases and yet their home is quite modest

I mostly don't notice the ads now as I just skip through them. Same as I do with every account on Instagram. I'm an advertisers worst nightmare, I hate shopping and will only buy something when I need it and have done my own research. And I would never use a swipe up link out of principle. :LOL:

She was getting approx £400 a month to adevertise “skinny coffee” that she knew full well didn’t do anything. That’s definitely doing stuff for the gram , and quite a nice add on to the income

I live in a modest home too and it’s nothing to do with the gram.
It’s more that I’d rather spend my disposable income socialising, buying clothes and going on holiday!
sadly I don’t quite seem to have as much disposable income as our Danielle with all her #ad/affiliates!

Speaking of affiliates, BM done a Q&A today and one of the questions asked how she began working with companies when she had just had Sienna. In case anyone is interested in the answer, she approached them and asked to do it! 😂

In her Q&A session today someone asked her having a brew in the morning..she said most of you are sick of seeing my coffee posts every morning - she must read this page!😂
I think she's a nice lass - her and Ben seem really happy together, she has good mates and a decent social life. Just the incessant protein, spices and coffee posts that do my head in!

She doesn’t offend me in anyway really. I’m following for the awful fashion (IMO).

Even if I like anything an influencer advertises I will not swipe up. I’ll go google it myself out of principle.

Yes her house seems modest but her designer handbag collection isn’t. I’m not sure how you can guesstimate the worth of a house you have no idea about either?
Maybe she is just purely living off her wage and not the swipe ups (who knows), all I know is if after months and months of advertising something, if it wasn’t making me any money I’d stop, and Danielle hasn’t so it’s obviously making her money.
Also the swipe ups. If she’s so well off and living off her own wage why even bother?
Because she can’t quite make ends meet? (Then stop spending)
Because she can’t quite afford to pay for their lifestyle off their wage alone (then live within your means)
Or because like many other instagrammers she’s greedy and making money to support some fake luxury lifestyle so she can post for the gram!

I don’t really understand why anyone considers Danielle to be any different to the likes of Mrs Hinch, PTWM etc. She just has a smaller following and reads on here to see what we all want/don’t want. I’m sure there was some posts saying they’d just like Danielle to be honest about her weight... next she’s saying she’s in a bit of a funk she can’t get out of. Someone says they want drunk stories... she dedicated a full night to drunk stories. Someone mentions the coffee machine boring boomerangs...she stops. Someone says how she has lots of friends and a social life... all of a sudden she’s meeting up with more friends for a catch up (no pics of said friends or evidence though, ok maybe they don’t like to be featured but I find myself questioning these things). She’s very very very predictable.

But like I have said before I don’t dislike her or wish bad on her I just feel as though I started following her for her slimming content which was great losing 5 stone in a year is incredible and inspirational and keeping it off even more so. But then she started promoting stuff and misleading people to earn money. If she didn’t have a job I could understand it or if Instagram was her only way of an income however it’s been said here before that they both have decent jobs.

Re the house price - it's pretty easy to guesstimate the price, it's all on google. We know it's a mid-terrace in Barnsley, so it's not difficult to work out roughly what it's worth.

Hers was my favourite account when she lost weight with SW, but then came the coffees (which I know she didn't use to lose weight) and it's just got worse since then.

I don't really care what she earns or what they spend their cash on, I just wish she wouldn't advertise so much. I hate people that sell their soul for a quick profit*

* not that I'm saying I wouldn't necessarily do the same haha. I just like to follow accounts that are a bit more organic and less #ad.

I don't think anybody is saying she's any different to Hinch etc? Just that they like her anyway. We're allowed to like people, even if they are selling stuff. 🤷‍♀️

I am ashamed to say I have been sucked in to the things she had advertised in the past, because I was vulnerable at the time, and I didn’t realise they were ads because she didn’t declare them. I also didn’t realise that she wasn’t being honest about how she lost weight - she always said she never did exercise, but she walked 10,000 steps a day which is about 4 miles. That’s exercise.
She only started declaring things when she was reprimanded by Advertising Standards Agency, and she only told the truth about her weight when she read here. When I realised all of this, it affected my mental health even more because I really felt stupid for falling for it.
At first I thought she was smart for reading here and taking it in to account, but quickly realised it was just a very short term thing and not genuine

No one said anything about you not being able to like her? Everyone Is entitled to their own opinion on Danielle or any other instagrammer for that matter. Your allowed to like and dislike whoever and whatever and likewise am I.

I just really don’t understand. I really don’t understand why there’s some instagrammers who have made Instagram their job, given up real 9-5s to make Instagram their careers and get so much Agro for it and then theirs instagrammers who have jobs and do the same amount of swipe ups etc and are praised because they have a job, because they have a modest house or because they shop at Lidl.
I don’t know maybe I need to do some research.

Im not at all saying Danielle is the worst person or that I dislike her. As I’ve said I followed her because she was literally my inspiration and made me believe all the slimming world hype! However looking back there’s absolutely no way she lost 5 stone in a year by following slimming world alone, unless of course she lived on fish and chips and McDonald’s before that. In my opinion she must have starved herself at points, and I can imagine that the pressure to look perfect on your wedding day is enough to make you do anything. Looking back in my opinion she looked too skinny. She looks amazing now and I can only wish that one day I will have Danielle’s figure.

I live about 4 streets away, believe me I have a pretty good idea of the cost of her house 🙃

Ok, your initial post read to me like a list of why you think people shouldn't like her, but apologies if that wasn't your intention.

Have you seen Danielle in real life then?? Just curious! Does she do the boomerang head bob just walking down the street with Dozza?
Also, I’m so confused, the quote that is apparently from me re surmising how much her house costs...... I didn’t write! So odd. P

I've seen her falling off her Jimmy Choo's in town before absolutely slaughtered and in the local Mozza's doing her 'healthy shop's but no head bobbing boomies unfortunately
