The capital letters in the print really annoy me too.Has anyone seen her story from earlier today showing a print that she’d been gifted?
Apparently all profits go to the NHS, which is great, but has she seriously accepted the print for free?! Surely she should make a donation? She may well have done for all I know, but it seems a bit strange.
She also got the artist’s name wrong initially... Such attention to detail!
The issue is that she’s been saying she’s a size 14 for years, but has also said she has gained a lot of weight - yet is still a perfect size 14. Compare what she looks like now to how she looked in her first size 14 video. She’s more like an 18 these days.I’ve been lurking here for a while as I’m intrigued by Helen as I’m a Norfolk girl too. I don’t know enough about her to compare how she was previously to how she is now and she doesn't seem to be that happy and like she’s trying too hard to be alternative and quirky and her loud voice is extremely grating. However I don't really like the body shaming comments and do believe she is a size 14. I’m a similar height and body shape to Helen and I’m a size 12, a bigger size 12 since lockdown as I too was drinking everyday and eating what the hell I liked because I was furloughed, bored, anxious and food and drink was the only thing I had to look forward to. And although the fact that I’m a qualified PT, was bombarded with Instagram fitness posts and more importantly knowing I wasn’t happy with my body, I still couldn’t motivate myself to change but then something clicked recently and I’m reigning it in now. My point is I do think she is a size 14, on the bigger end of a 14 maybe, but so what, let her eat/drink what she wants!
Everyone’s commenting at how unhappy she is etc so food and drink is probably a comfort to her and she’ll change it when she’s ready and if she even wants to. Like someone mentioned above she probably does need to take a break from social media and focus on herself (not necessarily her weight) but making herself happy again. It must be draining to be over emphasising how great everything is and how much fun you’re having everyday when you’re probably not.
I was annoyed by that! She could at least delete the wrong info post and re do it with the right info, poor artist!Has anyone seen her story from earlier today showing a print that she’d been gifted?

Literally was about to post that. I don’t understand this at all. With it being gifted hopefully if she has any kind of morals she’ll have made a donation back. Won’t hold my breath.Has anyone seen her story from earlier today showing a print that she’d been gifted?

I have never body shamed Helen, the thing that gets to me is the fact she is not honest yet constantly says how 'authentic' she is. She also constantly (constantly) mentions how eating junk and weight gain gets her down and she needs to eat clean for at least a week etc etc and go back to Boot Camp etc, she will do a montage of her eating salad or something, and having PT, being productive in the house, then in the vlog the very next day she slept in, missed Boot Camp and she's in KFC and eating ice cream in bed at the end. It's a vicious circle of her own doing and the reason we comment on it is because to be honest, apart from clothes...it's all she talks about. Her size 14 try on videos always look desperately uncomfortable, would we care if she said she was a size 16 or 18? Nope, she'd just look more comfortable and we wouldn't feel she was saying there's something wrong with being over a size 14 because she cannot admit she is.I’ve been lurking here for a while as I’m intrigued by Helen as I’m a Norfolk girl too.

UK average is 16She loves this 'average girl size' thing, even though she's larger than average size. I've never understood it.
The average size in the UK is a 12? Just embrace that you're bigger. Nothing wrong with it.
I didn't know that. I always thought it was a 12. Maybe it used to be? I guess as people get more affluent and convenience foods are more readily consumed, the average size has gone up! Colour me surprised.UK average is 16
I was also surprised at this being average. I genuinely don't think I know anyone I work with/friends who is/are around a size 16 (of course I don't go asking etc). I also thought it was around a 12.I didn't know that. I always thought it was a 12. Maybe it used to be? I guess as people get more affluent and convenience foods are more readily consumed, the average size has gone up! Colour me surprised.
I would say she's bang on then.
Get out of town. She is not 18.The issue is that she’s been saying she’s a size 14 for years, but has also said she has gained a lot of weight - yet is still a perfect size 14. Compare what she looks like now to how she looked in her first size 14 video. She’s more like an 18 these days.
She tries to come across as body confident but even her Gleam management photos she has her had squeezing her side right in to appear thinner. She knows how to pull the right angles and look slimmer in photos.
View attachment 157935 If she was as honest and as body confident as she claims then she doesn’t need to do this stuff, people would accept her as her true size.
She put out a post saying she had gained a lot of weight during lockdown and the next day put out a size 14 video. It doesn’t add up. Personally I think she should stop doing the size 14 / pear shape videos and just label herself plus size, but Helen is so fixed on being the same size 14 she was 3 years ago.
I was annoyed by that! She could at least delete the wrong info post and re do it with the right info, poor artist!
It does seem in very poor taste for her to have something gifted, I agree! She could have said even if it was gifted she will donate, it doesn’t make sense at all...
I would love to see Helen do some fundraisers, I think she could do that really well and create some fun ideas...
She absolutely is NOT an 18 and the shaming of her size is a joke, shes petitie and thick set. So what? Would love to see what all these people harping on about her weight look like.She is quite short remember, so someone taller that looks as “big” as she does might be an 18 - but no way is Helen an 18
Really? Its her houseHow is she out at the pub? I thought they weren't allowed to open yet?
Haha seems like this might be a close friend of helensShe absolutely is NOT an 18 and the shaming of her size is a joke, shes petitie and thick set. So what? Would love to see what all these people harping on about her weight look like.
Really? Its her house
Not at all. I just find it a little childish that you're so obsessed with saying shes a size 18 and clearly she is not.Haha seems like this might be a close friend of helens
