Everyone may as well just donate the £11.95 directly to Tommy’s and just read her blog instead. Miss out the patronising middle man. It’s not even as though she wrote the whole book, there’s 4 other people who helped her out on this one.
Yes. Can’t help but think this book will be just similar bits from the last book, and then a longer version of her blog posts

Hello. New here,hope I'm posting this correctly🙈I first started following Elle early 2017 as she was totally relatable to myself..but in the last year i really feel as though she's pulled away and become rather obnoxious and extremely arrogant..almost like she's saying oh hi,got what I've always wanted now so goodbye and F you all..all this please dont message me as I can't help was so rude and could have been put in a better way! I think the fact she ended up with a big following just got to her head. Also, correct me if I'm wrong,but im sure on her pregnancy announcement she stated it wouldn't turn in to a new mums account and it would still be a "safe place"..yet there she is on stories bombarding us all with her fav baby buys🤔also her feed of late is poor,I can't see people staying to see photos of a plant pot..I think she needs to come back down to planet earth or pull her head out of her backside. At the end of the day she lives in a small 3 bed semi with off road parking,she's not so different from her followers yet she flouces around like she's lady Eleanor of Surrey 🤦‍♀️i think trying to keep up with more obviously wealthy influencers turns these people in to bitter women with huge chip on their shoulder! Sad really

Anyone else confused?

Is she giving up Insta and all the freebies?!

Me too. She says the books and blogs are her focus, but she wants to get back to connecting to people like she did in the beginning by freeing herself from things, that don’t allow her to do this 🤷🏼‍♀️

That’s not vague and confusing at all..

Glad it's not just me.

Definitely feel the "connecting with people like I used to" bit was for Tattle's benefit!

For someone who doesnt want to discuss her baby thats a hell of a lot of graphic detail about her birth. I read the first paragraph and gave up
Totally agree ...... God she is so dramatic its painful. No one cares how traumatic the birth was, we all just wanted to know O arrived into the world. If I stubbed my toe I would just keep moving, Eleanor on the other hand would have some dramatic tale & want to tell the world. It screams POOR POOR ME!!!!! She is always a victim, its cringe

I keep saying it’s not Queen 👑 or Lady, she’s on a higher level - it’s Saint Eleanor of Godalming 😇. I’ve been in touch with the Pope, he’s thinking about it 🤔🤔😀😀 xx

'I had nothing with me apart from my phone in my hand and a dressing gown that would almost certainly have to be binned. Well, you couldn’t make it up.'

Personally, I don't think any of the story is funny, nor do I need it to be. But, I can guarantee that had this happened to me, I would not have continued to clutch my phone, nor think about how I needed a new dressing gown.

I read the blog. I think she feels very torn. She doesnt want to be a mummy blogger but she doesnt want to give up the large following (and adoration- just see the rave thread) and freebies etc. The page will become an archive and nobody will use it because (sadly) there are more recent baby loss accounts that people will find more relevant/engaging. The break from insta seemed to suit her, its like she just cant cut those final apron strings.

I wish her followers knew that it’s a measly 1%.
Of course she will never announce that...
I’d be embarrassed if I was her.
So if book is 12 quid she gives 12p ! Disgusting to have that it sold as if money was being donated.

Not even that....she gives 1% of her author royalties. Which is already some tit % of the book cost. So she gives 1% of duck all to them!

just read the blog post, well that was all very dramatic wasn’t it?!
It makes me wonder how she can think of enough to pad out a book. We surely know virtually everything about Teddy and her continuing struggle to have another child? What's left? Maybe there's a chapter on £100k extensions, another on Boris and the rest of the book's about the drama of not wanting freebie, whilst accepting freebies.
