Ellen Miller

[frooshh]

She might not have mentioned her workplace, but at the time she had an active LinkedIn account with her work listed on her profile so it would have been easy to find out where she worked.

I’m not sure what I would do in that situation if I was made to choose between a hobby with a passive income and my career - tough and I feel slightly sorry for her! I guess she can always find another 9-5 that’s lenient with their social media policy.

maybe it was also easier for them to terminate her because she was a contractor? I do feel bad that she had to choose but it wouldn’t be hard for someone with her experience to find another job.

She's so privileged. Her old flat was around £650k and her current home she has with Cameron is around £1.2M. It's an insane life when you think she's just 30. It's all her parents money I assume. Who knows what Cameron does but his friends all look like privileged frat boys so I'm not holding my breath there either.

I’m fairly certain that when she worked in her corporate role she didn’t even work full time. I recall her saying she didn’t work Fridays. I have a feeling that Cameron works in something tech finance related but don’t quote me there!

I find her videos hard to watch these days. I generally quite enjoy cosy videos every so often, but her videos are just so boring and draining!

And then you have her bookish vlogs that consist purely of Waterstones haul, same repetitive reviews for the different books she’s reading, journaling like she’s 13. My gosh, what a life!

Anyone who buys books from Waterstones definitely has more money than sense!

About income - they used to make the same income when she was still corporate. She said previously she only makes about 1/3 of her corporate salary from YouTube now so I can’t imagine she contributes much to savings after mortgage/ all her shopping trips.
For someone who no longer has a full time job, she still goes through money like water??

I agree , it would be interesting to see her cutting back but she’s spending like there’s no tomorrow ! I expect with her views on Youtube she is still earning well though ( ofc not as much as before but compared to most average people her age )

 

[Shutterbug99]

Not seen anything where she's addressed she's now back to being a meat eater again - she was devouring prosciutto in her last vlog.

She was always so quick to point out that she didn't eat meat and mentioned it quite a lot. I wonder what changed?

 

[Shutterbug99]

It’s all the same thing over and over which is fine when people have lives where they go to work, see friends, do relatable things. But all she does is garden and bake.

And read and shop!

 

[Shutterbug99]

They barely live together. Cameron spends most of the week away from home. Are they sure they are ready for the relationship to move to another level?

They got engaged quickly too, especially considering they only see each other at weekends.

 

[Shutterbug99]

Given she lived alone and was a (seemingly successful) consultant on a good salary before she met Cameron, it’s like she removed her brain and became a Surrey Stepford wife as soon as he moved in. If he’s happy to sign up for that, good for him but, presumably, she’s no longer the independent person he was initially attracted to.

It is strange how much she's changed since she moved house/got engaged. She was in a LTR before Cameron and didn't act like an overexcited teenager back then. I wonder what changed? Maybe this is how Cameron likes things? Perhaps he's a bit of a traditionalist: wife at home, husband in charge of the finances. Total speculation as I don't even watch here these days and only read here.

Is the wedding soon? I think someone mentioned it was early 2026.

She always said she was a pescetarian as her mum (and maybe other members of her family?). But she is preparing chicken in her latest video.

 

[Shutterbug99]

In her last video, in her Q&A section she did say the two of them still want kids. Maybe that’s her soft launching the idea of a pregnancy.

Right now her content is very inoffensive but boring. I really hope if she does continue to vlog, she keeps her potential children completely out of it. Kids do not belong in front of a camera in any circumstance.

She vlogged her honeymoon, so I'm not holding out much hope for the privacy of any future children.

 

[Fanny-Dango]

Just how much money does she (and Cameron) have?! Not only did they have that massive, extravagant, ostentatious wedding in South Africa but they had a honeymoon in Mauritius (in what looks to be extremely luxurious accommodation)!

They have that (nearly £2M) house, food shop at M&S and Waitrose and she's forever buying clothes (Free People, ME+EM, White Company etc) not to mention books from Waterstones! They're often at expensive garden centres buying a shit ton of plants and they painted their living room not once but twice (when she wasn't keen on the colour) with Farrow and Ball!

She's about as far from relatable as she could be for the average woman in their early to mid thirties! (which isn't me, I'm almost twice her age!).

(@Fanny-Dango we posted within seconds of each other )

@Valentine1402 Great minds think alike!

 

[Fanny-Dango]

Basically, Ellen's devalued herself from an independent, self-reliant, city career woman to a Stepford Wife.

We can shudder at the film, we don't want it to be real life!

 

[andreaoid]

Omg! Did she buy a doily in her latest video?? Hahahaha... She called it a placemat as well.

Another Ellen-type YouTuber - Rachel Sanderling - popped up on my YouTube algorithm the other week (mostly, I think, as she’s based in Cornwall and I watch a lot of a videos of there). Looks similar to Ellen, wears similar clothing, does re-sets and reading BUT she has a full time job, a much calmer demeanour and has what looks to be a pretty fulfilling life. I’m finding her content very much more enjoyable. These types of YouTubers are 10 a penny, though, so do need to make their content interesting and Ellen’s is pretty dull now, and most people in her age group (and I’m not!) don’t have the cash to buy a £1.5M house on the Thames!

She popped up on my homepage last week and I saved the vlog to watch later as I always like to watch anything Cornwall based. I must remember to watch!

I recently started watching Taylor Tippett. She's a flight attendant based in LA. The vlogs I've watched have mostly been lifestyle/day in the life/meal prep/reading. She also shares bits about her working life - layovers etc.

Hannah and Ellen were friends way back. I think they might have gone to the same uni but not 100% sure.

Back in the early days of her channel, Ellen mentioned Hannah a few times as sort of a 'YouTube inspiration' and was also all over her IG comments. Hannah never seemed to return the favour and there is no evidence that they are friends these days.

Hannah has a thread on here if you're interested in reading more. Her vlogs are very aesthetically pleasing, but boring. (IMO)

Ah now you mention that I do remember Ellen mentioning her friend Hannah who was successful on YouTube - I assumed she meant Hannah Ricketts. Whatever you think of Hannah Adkins, her vlogs are superior in every way compared to Ellen's within that over saturated genre and that is shown in the difference between their subscriber numbers. I was very surprised to see quite how derivative Ellen's content is - she even copies Hannah Adkin's thumbnail style. It makes it even more mind boggling that Ellen gave up her successful career plus the 9-5 content to be a poor imitation of an ex friend!

 

[Valentine1402]

The wedding is her life project. What will she do once I'm the wedding is over???

Won't be long before there's a 'baby project' and then a 'dog project', then it's back to baking cakes and bread and becoming a Surrey wife. It's hard to believe she's on early 30s when I'm almost twice her age and would find her lifestyle dull!

 

[francaispangol]

Watched her latest reading vlog - has she had lip fillers? Something didn't look natural about her upper lip. Recently unsubscribed for her, so tired of seeing the same recycled content

 

[Valentine1402]

Christ in heaven, the squealing in the latest vlog over a freebie she’s been sent is excruciating - and she’s how old????!

And WTF is ‘so fun’ - considering she must have gone to a private school, how does she not know what poor grammar that is?! I went to a rough arse comprehensive and am embarrassed for her every time she says it!

 

[Valentine1402]

I'm bored out of my brain watching Ellen's Insta posts, let alone her YT vlogs. Honestly, there must be more to her life that she doesn't share with us on her socials, surely?!

I admire your optimism

 

[faketits]

Omg agreed! They give such immature frat party vibes. It’s really cringe.

In her first few hosting videos where she had his friends over, you can see she looked/felt out of place but she seems to have adapted just fine ever since!
