...

are we so overexposed to celeb and influencer culture that we’ve lost sight of what true privacy actually is?

Yes quite probably. My reference to privacy was that she doesn't overshare as much as other people but you're right. She still is sharing details of her daughter more than 'normal' or safe levels.

She made such a song and dance about having her hair dyed...it's barely bloody changed and it was all to make another Symprove advert anyway!
Going from full blonde to what she has is a pretty big change for a person that was blonde for years - been there done that. But the buildup to it was a desperate way to keep up her engagement and she farmed it to death and back for content:

I don't know why I thought she was a lot older than 30!
Same.

Okay, that reel of her bopping around in slinky dresses has broken me. How can she? I’m pregnant but not as far along, and I haven’t got HG just feel shit all the time while only puking occasionally, and there’s NO way I could do that. I’d be throwing up. I’d feel so dizzy and sick. I’d hurt. What the fuck?

It has workers well for me for 10 years. I find that tracking my cycle and temperature as well as using ovulation sticks works great
It works for me too, however there are some law suits against them for people getting pregnant whilst on it so it’s certainly
Not a great one to recommend to your followers!

I’ve always liked Em but do find her confusing, like she’s recently made videos about not conforming to unrealistic body standards and how thigh gaps are not attainable for everyone because of the way we’re built, and I’m sure she said she had a thigh gap years ago by dieting/over exercising. Now in her running videos she has a thigh gap? Idk she seems to say one thing and do another
I’m not sure that’s really saying/doing different things? She can say it’s not something every body has the basic bone structure to do whether that applies to her own body or not.

It’s the contorting herself to create rolls for me… you’re a small person, stop pretending you’re not 😂 It’s OK to have insecurities at whatever size, you don’t have to exaggerate the ‘flaw’ to make the point

She’ll answer the questions that make her look good. She won’t answer the tough ones and I pity the people relying on her for advice.

Which pregnancy? I could only see that someone had said something along the lines of “I think that box is hiding a bump” before she announced her pregnancy with Arlo but that’s not announcing that’s speculating
Arlo, September 2022


Then 6 posts later is that one about hiding a bump.

Out of my friends who had HG, they’ve all been hospitalised.

I don’t know anyone who has had it manifest like Em. My friends had capillaries broken in their eyes from vomiting so much, they couldn’t get up and put on makeup and go get their nails done, let alone take selfies over the toilet or have full blown photoshoots.

So yeh, I think being hospitalised negated any discussion about whether they were entitled to sick leave.
thanks, I am self employed so don't know all the ins and outs of employment - my friend had severe sickness (don't think it was HE). she was just told to start her mat leave early at like 7 months pregnant. But her son is 10 now, so hopefully things have improved.

Of course it comes into it. What parent wouldn't help their kids. If she said she wanted a year off but couldn't afford it on maternity allowance (self employed version of mat leave) they could help her out.

I'm massively lucky my dad helped us out by helping pay towards a new boiler last year when we were without heat. He also helped towards buying a buggy for our first baby a good few years ago.

But I'd do the same for my kids too when their grown. Of course i want them to earn their own money too but if they needed some help for some reason (like buying things for a new baby) I'd help.


Em is clearly very close to her parents (or at least her mum) so if she wanted to take maternity leave she could. I'm sure given her name she'd rebuild followers again when she returned.
I personally think it's wrong to assume that just because your parents helped you out, that Em's parents are doing the same.
