All very grim. We’re watching the extremes of self obsession play out even after it caused the worst of the worst result. Both of them are culpable and it’s disgusting to watch them gloss over their grief. Like even if we take social media as a basic thing of ‘it influences’ well then even as a minimum we could say she’s encouraging other vulnerable mums to think they should be perky and out and about after losing a child. Bonkers all of it.

My only hope is that wider family and the US equivalent of social services are watching that baby now like hawks because this woman doesn't strike me as having many maternal bones in her body and very clearly Dad can't be trusted at all.
I’ve only just seen the clip of her singing along to the song in her car.. this was about 6 weeks after Trigg died 
her husband was facing criminal charges!!! WTF

Yes talk about water safety work with a charity to help children learn to swim she could be doing so much and she's going around drinking coffee
I really don’t think you can judge someone for how they are grieving and it certainly doesn’t correlate with how much they care and loved that person. Because trauma like this is just a whole different world you could never understand unless you’ve been through it. We all think we’d know how we’d act but we don’t. She loved her son dearly, you could see that from a mile off. I won’t be judging her. Her posts could be hiding a multitude of things. Next week she may be unable to get out of bed again. I’m glad she’s going to therapy regularly and has gotten professional help. Some of you on here seem to be on a witch hunt….
Not at all a witch hunt. Just commentary on what she is choosing herself to put out there. She is in 100% control of how she’s being perceived. People are just confused about her behaviour after something so catastrophic, which is understandable.
You can see she idolised Trigg and everyone does grieve differently, however, her actions are questionable.
The fact she’s made content a mere 6 weeks after his death, singing and shopping is a tad disrespectful and distasteful. It can take months/years for something like this to hit you but those first few weeks and months are usually a blur of just surviving and trying to get through the day. Protecting your brand and making happy videos would be the last thing on your mind
I’ve been trying for days to find the right words and been unable to. I feel torn between do not judge a grieving mother and disgusted by the vacuous behaviour. I totally agree with everything you have said, you articulated it so much better than I could have.
Actually I prefer your succinct way of putting it instead of my word salad! Definitely feel conflicted in my opinion and can see the reasoning behind people saying leave her alone. If this was a) a man and b) someone less well liked and outwardly sweet natured, I genuinely think it would be seen as monstrous. I’m not normally one for saying if it was a man/woman but I think the goodwill towards E as a poor thing that this has happened to, rather than joint enterprise has taken her quite far here.
Oh wow I thought the only reason she could film herself giggling out and about weeks after her son died was that she was heavily medicated but I guess not
She seems stone cold doesn’t she. She always came across so loving and sweet in all the videos but is it all just an act?? It’s bizarre and unnerving tbh
It feels like an episode of black mirror
She's mourning for her son, but not in any familiar way especially to those who've been through that awful journey themselves. And that's what is attracting negative comments. If she had appeared to be this "over it" (not that you ever are) 12 months down the line, no one would have thought "oh, this is weird behaviour" but because it was only a few short months and she's using content she filmed weeks after her son's death, then she is getting negativity and ultimately that will affect her sponsorship/gifting potential. And speaking personally, I don't think her behaviour is remotely helpful to other grieving parents who are likely seeing her and thinking why the hell can't I even get dressed yet.
Excitedly shopping for Halloween bits when all anyone else would be thinking is how their little boy isn’t around to dress up for Halloween this year. I find her behaviour completely bizarre.
100% I was thinking the same, the minute she's on her phone it's this whole other persona
Emilie girl, get off the internet
To be fair I agree with her here.
But why is she even engaging with these comments during her grief? Just turn off your comments and live your life, I really don’t get it. Of course she’s going to get negative comments, she’s showing herself getting extremely excited over halloween decorations, a few months after her son died, what die she expect honestly
Everyone has different / are taught coping mechanisms. .
unless you’ve gone through similar you have absolutely no idea I’m sorry.
Maybe thats what keeps her going? Honestly the way it bothers people so much is kinda freaky.
“Grief journey” is vapid and annoying. The saying needs to go in the bin.
