So uncomfortable watching Olivia towers hump the door as she moans to the camera
Er what ?? Why is she doing that, is that a intro style

I’m going to go out here and throw RTG a bit of a bone, I know she is naive and isn’t fully taking on board the issues with peppers weight but, she is very transparent with tagging brands and putting ad/gift/pr/ba on her stories, surely, as a lot of the brands repost what she creates and shares on social media, they, the brands can see for themselves and make their own decisions about continuing the partnership?

I have felt at times there is a bit of a witch hunt against her.
It does sometimes go beyond just having a fat horse and saying silly things that she has probably just misinterpreted.

**For the record, I know the horse is overweight, I’m not defending that side of it.
I think it’s more that she isn’t taking on board the weight issues rather than isn’t fully, and because she is actively arguing back that the horse isn’t over weight when it is, and then hanging her vet out to dry, with statements like turn fat into muscle, she’s annoying people, I don’t think it’s a hate campaign I think she is just someone who fails to see any perspective than her own
Absolutely her riding instructor when it come to that and things like putting her mare in a grackle, has to shoulder the responsibility imo as they are giving her poor advice
Also that farrier who is grinding away her shoes
But one thing I’ve found in life is that you can only attract mainly other versions of yourself, because that’s all you want to surround yourself with anyway, if you are stubborn obnoxious and only listen to your own agenda, then most likely the people you are attracting are like that too, why, because like hell do people like her want to be around people that look at things from the horses perspective or another’s that doesn’t fit their agenda
I don’t think she misinterpreted anything I think she just pick and chooses the lines and words she is going to hear and people that once gave her leeway are now losing patience with her

Maybe some people are actually being nasty about her weight which isn’t on. Saying Pepper is fat and it’s abuse is one thing but no one should say anything about Ray’s weight as it's her choice to be that big. Pepper has no choice, she was meant to constantly graze poor forage and goes miles to get it, not he stuck in a stable with mountains of good quality hay or haylage. I also don’t think saying she is to big to ride Pepper is bullying either, it all comes down to animal welfare and being so over weight and carrying round someone to big for her can’t be doing her any favours.

See Kizzy and Etties Ponies is selling that beautiful little Welsh mare they just bought. I get mistakes can be made regarding buying horses but I'm baffled they ever thought buying a young, bouncy pony was a plan for them. Common sense would dictate its not the type you buy to escort your kids around. I really wonder about people sometimes.

In that vain, I always wondered why NoHorseHan didn't just buy Megs little Dora. She's the same size as Affie and was more produced even last year.

I think they buy and sell a few? I may be wrong but I get the impression that the mother
May have got a unrealistic impression of her own ability’s over the last few years and out of touch with reality, there’s a family, they do home schooling they’ve loads of other ponies, you can only juggle so many plates and taking on a mare that also needed a lot of time and through education was never going to “fit” in, I thinks she is also clinging onto the past, when she would have been able to ride green horses without a care, I get that they are not for everyone but for now I really think she should just buy a gypsy cob type horse who she doesn’t have to worry about, doesn’t have to school and she can continue going out with her kids not having to try and manage her own mount
Will she do this, unlikely, same as ray she has 1000s of people on social media agreeing with her ego and anyone who doesn’t is a hater

Both Emily (Kizzy’s mum) and Chelsea (Harlow’s mum) having a moan on insta this morning. Don’t put yourselves or your children in the public domain if you can’t take other opinions or criticisms IMO.

She’s been in the same position before with that other mare she had, Lily. Completely inappropriate for the job. She needs to realise that she’s buying a pony for the girls needs, not something she would have bought pre-children. Needs to grow up a bit and buy more sensibly.

I am surprised no one has mentioned Charlotte’s latest reel. I honestly cringed the whole way through. She’s still trying to be funny and quirky and relatable. We’ve all said it before but that horse doesn’t look comfortable. I get that he’s a hot horse but something isn’t right. Bucking like that over every jump… even if it is just freshness, Charlotte’s riding is not helping.

He isn’t comfortable at all, he looks so unhappy in his face. He’s worse now than before she had him scoped for ulcers.

I don’t think that’s very fair to comment. She’s not obese and putting her horses at risk like RTG so I don’t think weight should be discussed. She’s in a (I presume) happy relationship and as long as her and her horses are happy, that’s all that matters

Agreed. You can’t monetise your life and children like that and not expect to get any opinions on what you do. In a normal job you would receive feedback on a piece of work from your colleagues, so this is the equivalent. Nastiness is obviously wrong but genuine comments and opinions are part of it when you are getting paid/getting free stuff to produce content.

If I had just spent £££ on a new custom saddle and my horse was still going like that, I’d be ringing the vet straight away. He’s really not happy.

I'm not aware of anyone criticising the kids. It's more the actions of the parents and the fact that Emily seems unable to accept she needs a solid, made horse that has its head screwed on. I have no idea about the Harlow stuff.

I don't think there's a need to bring anyone's weight up unless it's.of detriment to the horse or it's something they themselves are bringing up online

What the duck?! People like you are the reason people have eating disorders. Meg is a perfectly healthy weight.

Disgusting comment. And if it was a comment made out of ‘concern’ it would have been put out in a less derogatory manner. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with her weight.

Completely uncalled for! There’s nothing wrong with her weight! Comments like that are what causes people to have unhealthy relationships with food. Absolutely disgusting thing to say! Glad others are calling you out too.
