Lots of posts on the rave thread, both positive and negative. Nobody’s perfect but you wouldn’t know that reading some of the posts defending Elle on the rave thread. I used to follow her when she first started posting, then unfollowed when I got tired of the posing in front of the mirror, the endless shopping and the complaining about the builder down the road. She gained a lot of followers from her book and her work for Tommy’s and her local hospital which I admire, and I was very happy to hear that she has now had a healthy baby. But she does get paid for her book with a portion going to charity and has been very happy over the years to receive plenty of gifts eg armchair, carpet, patio furniture, etc, many of which in the beginning were not clearly marked as ads. So it’s not all for charity! And am sad to hear that she hasn’t been polite to some who have contacted her. I do wonder also how several instahuns block accounts that have been a tiny bit critical of one of their gang. Am also a bit cynical about her reappearance on Instagram in time for a new book launch. Think that’s it from me! She’s not the worst on Insta but definitely not perfect.
She definitely gets paid for her book. The profits go to charity, however Elle would be paid a fee to write the book.
This is so well worded and exactly how I feel about her. What I saw in her was the first time I encountered somebody on Insta who was fake.
As I said over on the RVK loves thread, all that glistens isn’t gold. She was v abrasive/rude to me and imo it was v unnecessary. I had been nothing but kind and supportive to her with any comments or dms I had sent her. I can’t help that think because I’m a private account with not a lot of followers, I was of no interest to her or importance. That’s fine I know people irl are like that too, I just detest the way she tries to come across as so saccarine sweet when she definitely has an edge to her

I have been blocked by Elle on my personal account. As I mentioned on the rave thread. I also followed her on my business account (over 50k followers) and personal account (200 followers). I’ve never commented negatively on her posts. But I’ve been blocked! I have no idea why. I’ve also now unfollowed from my business account.This is so well worded and exactly how I feel about her.

I reviewed and promoted her first book for her, but won’t be bothering with this book. Don’t get me wrong, I am so pleased they have their baby at home with them and hope all goes well for them.
But as someone else has pointed out, she has in the past accepted free stuff for advertising - she also had I believe the washing machine for the new kitchenand has been on trips with Joules (with the other insta huns) to name but a few.
I’ve also been blocked by a few others - Cara Suthers for one and I’ve never followed her!
To block anyone who hasn’t done anything but liked, commented and hoped she would get her baby is beyond me.....
People on the rave thread behave like she is beyond being allowed to be criticised, because her baby died and she’s donated money into charities. I have every sympathy for her in regards with what happened to her son. It’s utterly heartbreaking and some of the things she has said in the time since were so relatable because my first daughter died in labour. The money she has contributed to charities will undoubtedly have made such a considerable difference to what they are able to offer. But she is beyond being the lady whose baby died. She is also Elle. People should be able to criticise her or comment on what she does, without it continually having to be associated with her son and his death. She has done good things. But equally she isn’t all sunshine and rainbows. She has taken the free gifts and like you correctly said, they haven’t always been advertised correctly and sneakily months later have been declared to be a gift.
The kindness left after she published the book because it’s like everything she had to say to bereaved parents was within that book. And honestly, I think it was totally fine that she didn’t want to be responding to parents when she was going through her pregnancy, the miscarriages, or at all. But just a kind word to say that she wasn’t able to offer any personal reassurances or words of advice, a generic response, would be much better fitted than blocking parents or reading and ignoring. It isn’t her responsibility but she pummelled the baby loss community, spoke to Tommy’s encouraging other people to speak about something that is important to them...but failed to include don’t talk to me.
I just know myself that those first weeks after my daughter dying were so dark and isolating. I just don’t think I would ever forgive myself if they opened up to me and exposed all those vulnerabilities and then I didn’t offer an appropriate response.
So sorry to hear about your baby daughter
that’s very sad xxI think, also as someone who has experienced debilitating losses, that Elle skates very close to commercialising grief. Her child’s death is the only reason she has a large Instagram following. This doesn’t negate the good she has done or her immense grief, but it doesn’t sit well with me.
Maybe she needs two accounts? A ‘personal’ account for advertising and a ‘charity’ account for fundraising? Then she’d be beyond reproach.

She’s very pally with Gettingstuffdoneinheels. And that is one massive twit. Make of that what you like.
Yes with her and Cara and Anna Mathur.
I think they all very similar. Fake to the core.
Like I said in previous thread, lot can be said about the person by the company they keep.
i cannot believe she doesn’t have a thread smug, self satisfied, greedy, pink dior (vomit) and apparently beyond reproach because she has raised money for charity.Oh gawd she’s another one
I first messaged Elle in 2017 and she was absolutely lovely, really kind. However as time has gone on, and her account has grown and more gifted stuff has appeared, that seems to not be the case anymore. The last I messaged, she was incredibly rude and dismissive. I wouldn’t wish what happened to her on anyone, and I applaud the amount she has raised for charity. However, she isn’t the only person to have lost a child, so a little compassion would go a long way. I do understand that she doesn’t want to plaster her long-awaited baby all over Instagram, but as someone else said, it’s almost like, she got her happy ending so see ya!! Lots of people have invested time in her account, sharing her posts and book etc, so it’s a little unkind to just disappear. (If that makes sense)
She does! Yes, endless ads on that page, accompanied by mind-numbing thoughts while she walks the dogs. That was bad enough, then she started selling advice on how to be an instahun
Getting stuff done in heels
Am I the only person that finds this woman seriously annoying- so smug and self satisfied! “Look at my enormous house/ pink door/chickens/massive kitchen/new clothes/lipsticks “ etc etc ( most of which are #gifted) Oh and while you’re at it, come and buy one of my drop of hope necklaces at £200...
tattle.life
I don’t criticise her for taking some time off Instagram to be with her newborn but can see your point. After all the blurb on Amazon selling her book encourages people to get in touch. And I’m sorry to hear that she was rude to you.
But she’s back now! New book to promote, end of maternity leave
My other beef is this (from the Amazon website, maybe it’s on the book as well?): “A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this book will be donated to Tommy's charity”. How much will go to charity? 1% of profits?... Who knows?! I wish that people and charities were a lot more upfront and transparent about this.

Totly agree.......I mean I have a dog but no way would I post the daily dawwwag walk. As for the bloody axe murderer she prattles on about. Do us a favour.....please
Agree, there definitely needs to be far more clarity where Charities are concerned.She does! Yes, endless ads on that page, accompanied by mind-numbing thoughts while she walks the dogs. That was bad enough, then she started selling advice on how to be an instahun

Oh and as for that Insta Book (oh no sorry - Download, not even a book)she was selling at £55 or was it £65 a pop ! Do we look so stupid ?

I also don't criticise her for having some time out, keeping her new baby off of her grid. This was the main point of my defense on the rave thread - that I didn't think she was duty bound or obligated in any way to share her rainbow baby. I know nobody is saying she should feel obligated, couldn't find a better word.
I also have to say that I can absolutely see the other points on this thread.
I was going through recurrent miscarriages at the same time Elle lost Teddy and then her subsequent losses too. I followed her because of that relatability and she shared pretty content too.
I unfollowed when she kept going on about "Shouty" the builder as it wasn't the content I wanted to consume and it just seemed a bit mean to me.
From that, I'm not surprised that she has been mean to people in her messages.
I guess what I'm saying is that it's possible to defend one action of hers (keeping baby private), without thinking the sun shines out of her rear, as it certainly doesn't.

Oh Gosh that shouty episode! Went on and on and on!
Also I remember her being really passive aggressive about people messaging her regarding their loss and advice. I thought that considering she is an author’ she could of articulated herself better and put her words in the kinder manner, but she can across as irritated and mean! I remember myself and my friend who followed her commenting.
Oh I wonder how her neighbours reacted when she had her snazzy extension build, or were her builders extra quite?
She strikes me as entitled type of woman.
Everyone has made such great points on here. Even though she wasn't very nice to me, I am really pleased that she has her rainbow baby. I have suffered as she has, so I can understand the pain she gone through. I wouldn't wish that on anyone, ever, and it's really nice that she has gotten to bring home a baby, finally.
BUT I also think she isn't a saint. It's unfair for people to invalidate how she has treated others because they think she is just the best ever and untouchable because she lost a baby. Nope. You don't get to treat people poorly because you lost a baby. And that was happening all over the Rave thread. "Sorry you PERCEIVED the way she treated you as rude." duck right off.
I had quite a few pleasant interactions with her over the years, both on Instagram and on her blog so I had no reason to think that when I messaged her she would be anything other than kind and gracious. I looked forward to reading her book because I enjoyed her writing on her blog and on instagram, I bought both a physical copy and the audible version, and later bought several additional copies to give to friends. I loved her book, so much of what she said and experienced resonated with me. I wrote positive, thoughtful reviews across all reading platforms. I sent her a loving and thoughtful message several months after I had read the book, I was careful in my wording and what I shared so as not to do anything that could potentially trigger her or upset her, but I did share some personal things and I felt like a right fool afterwards. I received a really unpleasant response of how she didn't have time for this and wouldn't be responding (it was bizarre to reply to let someone know you weren't worth their time and wouldn't be responding - you just responded, you idiot), I can't remember the exact wording now and I have since deleted her messages from my Instagram, I wish I had had the forethought to take a screenshot, but I'm a novice in dealing with the huns. All prior interactions with big accounts has been pleasant. It was so jarring and hurtful, especially after having had pleasant exchanges. It was unexpected. I thought of her as a kindhearted person, doing good things in the world. I do think she has done some good things and perhaps she still does with her charity work, but that doesn't excuse her from being unkind to people who are grieving. I kept following her, though, because I'm a nosy cow.
As an aside, I hadn't really paid much attention to Tattle. I was still in the instagram bubble of thinking all of these larger accounts were really lovely. Elle was the first of the lot that I had an unpleasant interaction with.
I recently realized she had blocked me from seeing her stories, but not her grid and I felt irritated about it. It was like she was saying, "you're a twit who I only want to give access to my grid so I can sell you some tit, like my new book or my $400 sheets". I cannot for the life of me understand why SHE would block ME. As I said already, I have always been kind and supportive to her. I do know that I'm blacklisted by a number of other instahuns (Cunty Suthers, THTMM, Martha YAWN Lewis, Blossoming BirdTurd, Anna Look at ME Mathur, Intellectually and emotionally stunted RVK, Laura-Ad, Sally Heel Lady {who I never even followed} and there's a few more - I can't even remember them all because it's been quite a while since I was blocked). Why was I blacklisted you ask? Did I post something nasty about any of them on Instagram? Call someone out for their dubious behavior? Leave a negative comment? Nope, it's because I FOLLOWED the RVK Tweets instagram account that put all of Grabecca's disgusting tweets that were racist, classist, and pretty big on fat shaming and mom shaming, online for all to see. Did I then do anything else? Share that account? Call people out on supporting Grabecca after finding out she is legitimately a racist and generally just a piece of trash? Nope, nothing else. Just kept on minding my own business. The funny thing is, they all drone on and on about Tattle and how it affects their mental health (wah wah wah), but people wouldn't come here and witch about them if they didn't have a reason to. Sure there will always be haters, but most people aren't going to take the time to create an account and write about other people unless they've been pushed to a point to do so. For some people it's constant undeclared ads, for some people it's a rotten interaction, or for some people, like me, it's being blocked for no good reason by a dozen narcissistic assholes on a Tuesday. I never would have created a Tattle account or come on here to post about them if they hadn't all been epic assholes.
I finally unfollowed and blocked Feathers. I wrote about it on the Rave thread because there wasn't anywhere else to write about it on here and the insane ass kissing over there made me want to vom. Finally! A non-Rave thread! Hoorah!
When people defend these women, it's often a "they didn't ask for this" defense. Are you bleeping kidding me? These women CHOOSE to put their lives on the internet, they're ordinary women who have CHOSEN to blast their whole lives into our faces on social media. We gossip non-stop (as a society) about people in the spotlight from royals to movie stars to politicians. These witches are often being pretty damned smug about their faux perfect little lives, did they really think 50,000 or 100,000 (or more) people would all be ok with how sneaky and manipulative they are? AND since the majority of them are proper assholes who refuse to follow the rules of declaring items as gifts and ads and then they go on wild blocking binges if there's a whiff of threat to their pretend lives, it shouldn't be surprising at all that people are itching to talk about them. Can you really expect people not to be irritated that every other post on your grid and stories is a freebie/ad that you have only received because you've managed to manipulate people and claw your way to "popularity" on the internet? People are not going to like it when a few dozen people get all the free tit all the time and are smug little cunts about it. I personally don't care all that much about that stuff, but I can fully appreciate that a lot of people do care about it and it upsets them, especially if they're working their asses off every day and can't afford half of what these women get for staying home and watching Netflix while dicking around on their phones. They can, of course, set 'boundaries', but no one is holding a gun to their heads saying, be an influencer!! They could also bow out gracefully if things are a bit too much and get a real job, but that would require them to actually work so, probably not likely. And they wouldn't be able to get the constant ego boost of thousands of strangers on the internet telling you you're great.
If Elle didn't want to respond to messages from people who want to tell her how much her writing has meant in their life, then she should craft a professional, gracious auto-response style message. OR she could just not respond at all. She doesn't have to be a dick to people. Like plastering your life all over the internet, you have a CHOICE. And, did no one tell her that she was writing a book about losing a baby? Not only is she now an author, and newsflash people like to contact authors of books they like, but she has a massive following on a really popular platform - people will contact her and they're often contacting her to thank her. Absolutely mental that she's decided to be mean to them. She should at least realize that these are vulnerable women contacting her, just be nice. It's pretty simple and not at all difficult to be nice to people who are hurting. If you can't be nice to people who are vulnerable and in pain, you're not actually a nice person.
I would have probably bought her next book. I gave her first book as Christmas gifts to a number of women in my support group, and probably would have done the same with her second. Her loss, I guess. It's too bad because if charity is her true goal, you'd think she'd care about being a nasty slag to grieving women on the internet, as it might affect the bottom line for charities that benefit from the selling of her books and her campaigns on insta. Makes me wonder, is she a good person? Or is she a bit vain and wants the attention being a pretend goodie two shoes brings? As my Nan used to say, only the Lord knows.

Well said and thought out piece and I completely reiterate what you have said. Your personal experience with Elle sounds so similar to my own. You’re quite right, just because you have had a tragedy in your life doesn’t give you the excuse to be rude or indifferent, or dismissive to people. Probably a rather course way to put this but unless you’re blowing smoke up Elle’s arse her fans will come for you but not everyone sees her in the same way. It’s obvious now that a good few people on here have seen the not so nice side to Elle, maybe more of a real side than she often portrays on her page? I wish her and her family nothing but the very best but I don’t have the blind loyalty that most of her followers do, as I have experienced her fakeness and coldness first hand and it’s not pretty I can tell you.Everyone has made such great points on here. Even though she wasn't very nice to me, I am really pleased that she has her rainbow baby. I have suffered as she has, so I can understand the pain she gone through. I wouldn't wish that on anyone, ever, and it's really nice that she has gotten to bring home a baby, finally.

I finally unfollowed and blocked Feathers. I wrote about it on the Rave thread because there wasn't anywhere else to write about it on here and the insane ass kissing over there made me want to vom. Finally! A non-Rave thread! Hoorah!
When people defend these women, it's often a "they didn't ask for this" defense. Are you bleeping kidding me? These women CHOOSE to put their lives on the internet, they're ordinary women who have CHOSEN to blast their whole lives into our faces on social media. We gossip non-stop (as a society) about people in the spotlight from royals to movie stars to politicians. These witches are often being pretty damned smug about their faux perfect little lives, did they really think 50,000 or 100,000 (or more) people would all be ok with how sneaky and manipulative they are? AND since the majority of them are proper assholes who refuse to follow the rules of declaring items as gifts and ads and then they go on wild blocking binges if there's a whiff of threat to their pretend lives, it shouldn't be surprising at all that people are itching to talk about them. Can you really expect people not to be irritated that every other post on your grid and stories is a freebie/ad that you have only received because you've managed to manipulate people and claw your way to "popularity" on the internet? People are not going to like it when a few dozen people get all the free tit all the time and are smug little cunts about it. I personally don't care all that much about that stuff, but I can fully appreciate that a lot of people do care about it and it upsets them, especially if they're working their asses off every day and can't afford half of what these women get for staying home and watching Netflix while dicking around on their phones. They can, of course, set 'boundaries', but no one is holding a gun to their heads saying, be an influencer!! They could also bow out gracefully if things are a bit too much and get a real job, but that would require them to actually work so, probably not likely. And they wouldn't be able to get the constant ego boost of thousands of strangers on the internet telling you you're great.
If Elle didn't want to respond to messages from people who want to tell her how much her writing has meant in their life, then she should craft a professional, gracious auto-response style message. OR she could just not respond at all. She doesn't have to be a dick to people. Like plastering your life all over the internet, you have a CHOICE. And, did no one tell her that she was writing a book about losing a baby? Not only is she now an author, and newsflash people like to contact authors of books they like, but she has a massive following on a really popular platform - people will contact her and they're often contacting her to thank her. Absolutely mental that she's decided to be mean to them. She should at least realize that these are vulnerable women contacting her, just be nice. It's pretty simple and not at all difficult to be nice to people who are hurting. If you can't be nice to people who are vulnerable and in pain, you're not actually a nice person.
I would have probably bought her next book. I gave her first book as Christmas gifts to a number of women in my support group, and probably would have done the same with her second. Her loss, I guess. It's too bad because if charity is her true goal, you'd think she'd care about being a nasty slag to grieving women on the internet, as it might affect the bottom line for charities that benefit from the selling of her books and her campaigns on insta. Makes me wonder, is she a good person? Or is she a bit vain and wants the attention being a pretend goodie two shoes brings? As my Nan used to say, only the Lord knows.
