In a recent video I recall her saying that she was told she was allergic (when she was younger I presume) but that she may grow out of it. She said that recently she had noticed that when she accidentally had dairy it didn’t have as much of an effect as it used to but still upset her stomach so she said she thinks she must just have an intolerance now and not a full on allergy.

I absolutely love grackle. And have from day one. But. I can’t help but think recently she is slightly playing up to the ‘oh my god everything is amazing I love everything’... The burrito video just rubbed me the wrong way. I don’t know why 😂

She’s just has a very easily excitable childlike and bubbly personality, I think it’s sweet but I know what you mean. I didn’t notice it so much in that video but definitely in her NYC vlogs she was like 'wow' about everything.

She's said before she can't as she's a professional baker - did baking at uni etc...

Yeah it’s too bad, that would be really fun to see and she would definitely slay. I liked how she did that recreation of gbbo and had her family judging, that was a cute idea and one of her better ones in my opinion.

Same, I come from such a sweary background and it’s so funny to me that they don’t. I suppose maybe flip has the same weighting to them but I can’t imagine it being as satisfying to yell as fuck. It must be brill for YouTube though as they’re genuinely that wholesome that they don’t swear and it’s not an effort to not do it.

I do often wonder about their family though. I feel like her mum and dad are very religious so follow all the rules of sex before marriage, no swearing/smoking/excessive drinking etc but Jesse and Chloe have swayed? When I moved in with my boyfriend, my grandma was livid because we weren’t married! I feel like Grace would follow her parents footsteps such as looking for a Christian boy to fall in love with

What's your basis for thinking Grace would take comments more to heart? Be more sensitive? I think that's irrelevant for whether someone is cut out to be an influencer or famous, etc

Bar sociopaths, everyone has feelings and criticism from trolls is going to hurt even with the knowledge that it's objectively false. No one would do well being bombarded with hate. I worry more about people who are impulsive and have a borderline personality of sorts, who lack self-esteem or support basis outside of their internet fans, who try to become influencers. These personalities would tend to lash out at others or themselves.

If anything I think Grace is really lucky that she has a decent sense of self-esteem, takes up hobbies for meaningful self-care like exercise, and is clearly authentically close with her family.

Of course many other influencers experience comments of a varying degree but the majority of them seem content with gifted items, brand deals and large sums of money to let it massively effect them. They also have a sense of entitlement that leads them to believe anyone who has an opposing view to them is a ‘jealous fat ugly troll’ and hide behind ‘be kind’ as an excuse to do as they please and avoid backlash for rule breaking etc (just to point out I DO agree with ‘be kind’ and don’t condone horrendous online abuse, but calling someone out for breaking lockdown rules or just disagreeing with them and them saying ‘be kind’ is a complete misinterpretation of the phrase)

Grace is different, I don’t know her personally obviously but to me she comes across as someone who would take the criticism to heart and allow that to change her as a person which would perhaps lose her authenticity, which is why many of us watch her.

I agree with you that she is so lucky to have a supportive and loving family around her who help keep her grounded. She has a lot to offer and I am not saying she shouldn’t be an influencer, if anything I wish for her to continue i enjoy her content and will continue to support her. I simply mean that from my personal observations she is quite sensitive and would take any comments (even just small observations) to heart.

Unless they are in that much of a hurry to tie the knot, it makes more sense for them to just wait until the spring/summer because otherwise it wouldn't be much of a wedding right now. Chloe may also prefer it to be kept quiet since Grace has a large audience and she doesn't seem that comfortable being on camera, also she's a teacher so it may be a privacy issue for her.

That’s what I was thought.

Sorry to be naive but what happened with Taz?

I don't think Taz really changed over time, she has just always been very immature, always pretending she doesn't know what she is doing etc etc never seems to evolve/get better

Ooh that is an exceptionally bad example, is it for a video or something?

I feel she usually looks ok. Thought she looked great in what she chose for the ‘one outfit for a week’ challenge... and when her friend dressed her, the stylish posh one. She looks great in monochrome print and unisex or even masculine cuts - blazers, cigarette trousers etc. She was dressed a bit like for the catwalk sometimes but doesn’t really seem to like dressing herself that way - fair play. I’m not a fan of the Victoriana thing I have to say, I didn’t see the appeal of that nightie , because I don’t see the appeal of any nightie.

that’s interesting, can definitely see him running a school. It’s weird seeing they have like 6 people who effectively run it, executive head, deputy head, assistant etc. When I was at school it was literally head and deputy. Must be a large school. I wonder if her mum teaches at the same school

Theres a lot of senior Leadership because it’s an academy so normally they work over an alliance of school so they might do 3 days in one then 2 in the other. It’s so that there is a a member of the SLT at each school at all times.
