Here you go.

I had a quick look at her Twitter. There's no way I am going there again, or joining in a Tattle conversation. She is draining without any of the comedy element provided by our Jack. I can see why Jack seems to be distancing herself, she would find it hard to compete with the constant ailments. Every conversation would be about who is most ill.

I had a friend like that, but had to distance myself. He "has" a list of complaints, physical and mental health, and is forever at the doctors. He takes huge amounts of medication and gets all sorts of benefits because he says he cannot look after himself. I am convinced the doctors prescribe whatever he wants to get him out of the surgery. He goes to any benefits interviews in dirty clothes, without washing himself and walking with two sticks. Yet he can go out on the piss, take drugs and (before the pandemic) go on holiday trecking up mountains, dance through the night and stand at a concert for hours. This is why I am always wary of people like Hattie.

Also Hattie wants to ban the word hypochondriac. To paraphrase the words of the good old Mandy Rice Davies., well she would, wouldn't she.

3 days ago she hadn't had the energy to brush her hair for over a week but had only just come back from a four day freebie holiday at a glamping site, where she had "a lovely time." Can't brush her hair but is constantly on Twitter. Can't brush her hair but can cope with a house move, one of the most stressful things. Can't brush her hair but has a website advising on how to deal with MH issues. I could go on.

I have said before that I have had a complicated medical history, however my BFF said to me recently "I forget to ask how you are health wise 'cause you don't go on about it all the time". Hattie just seems to revel in her diagnoses, wearing them like a badge of honour.

What a way to live your life.

A grift adjacent to our pov cosplay queen Jack Monroe 🥰

Have no idea who she is outside of her clearly lurking her mate Jack’s thread (muggy) but some top line highlights:
* £15k collected for a book that never happened?
* a mental health publication that appears to just be a vehicle to promote consumption to (vulnerable, obvs) women
* moaning about credit card debt on Twitter in the hope of getting #tips

Any receipts or tea welcome. Mods at present she has 39.2k followers so clearly over the 10k threshold, pls delete if not appropriate.

It’s like she’s trying to become an influencer via the back door, she cba to do the ~aspirational lifestyle content~ on Insta but wants to flog freebies to the masses. V weird.

Had a look as well. Wow, what a fun sponge she is

Another spot on analysis, dear @MancBee .
I have got a friend like that and over the years I have learned to distinguish between the people with real issues and the fake ones. Without fail, the people with a real issue never make noise about it, trying to get on with their lives, trying to 'pass', finding it very difficult to even bring things up when they are unable to do something. My friend who spends most of the time in bed and when she is well(!) can use her wheelchair always mentions how she does not want to be a nuisance for others. Of course she isn't, I just really wished for her that she was well and able to do all the things she would ideally like to do...
That other friend has got a medical alert about every week and nothing ever materialises (well, good!) but she keeps everyone on her toes with it. I am confident to say that I can now spot the liars from a mile, to much criticism from others because I don't show empathy. But those people have unfortunately played with my empathy for too long.
Not once have I ever doubted any of the cabal members' information about illnesses or other sad events- I guess because there is no sensationalism or hint of sad fishing and also because there is no tip jar in their profiles...

That's now three new threads Jack Monroe has been responsible for creating (Food & Drink, Vonnie and this one) - is this a Tattle record?

The Fack cinematic universe is almost large enough for an avengers style team up now 🤣

Omg! I used to follow Hattie ages ago! Just went on her twitter to see what drama she's causing now and I've blocked her - think her dramatic tweets kept getting faved by people I follow 🙄

I will start the ball rolling.

Sexpert. That “struggles with orgasms”. And definitely not sponsored by her PR company account “Blush & Lux”.

Of course, her “expert” tweet is probably referring to r clients that do Afro hair care products, wellness subscription boxes, CBD suppositories, and eco friendly toothbrushes.

Not wanting to be ageist, but I'm always quite skeptical when rather young women call themselves sexperts. Age is not a guarantee you know more about sex at all (of course), but I'm more inclined to trust a peson with plenty of life experience (or a psychologist who specialised in sexualogy) for advice on sexy times. I find a lot of younger women write about sex in a rather performative way, even when they try not to.

I first came across Hattie when we were both in the same IBD Facebook group. The whole environment was super depressing and felt like people were trying to one up each other on who had the worst/most ailments. I had to leave after a few months as it just got me really down. Looks like she hasn’t changed much then.

Now she's got her own thread, I can point out that she seems to have recently (?) changed her Twitter name to add an extra t (Hatttie) thus rendering all previous tagging of her useless, which is obviously brilliant PR. 👏

I hadn't looked at this Breakdown mag before but have just had a little look through. The first article I click on is telling me I need to purchase an eye mask and toilet freshener spray to help my wellbeing and help me be less stressed out. I'm currently going through a really tough period of anxiety that is massively affecting my quality of life. The idea that buying any of this tit is going to help make me feel better just feels really, really offensive.

If you’re trying to plug yourself as a hair care expert would you not keep the fact you haven’t for whatever reason washed or brushed your hair in a week?
Putting a positive spin on things she’ll be delighted when she logs in and sees she has a thread of her own.

Agreed she gets a pitiful amount of likes on her posts, they're uninteresting for the most part and downright miserable for the rest. Lots of soundbitey, livelaughlove tweets like she's hoping one will catch on and go viral. Almost not worth commenting on her at all but it's interesting to see such a blatant grifter in the wild. How can you be struggling to pay bills, begging for work/cash, then a few weeks later you're asking everyone to pray you get accepted for a new, bigger house (assuming bigger bills) to live in? What?
