I think she's deeply unhappy. I find it hard to imagine her being so negative about her kids and then being all happy and smiley with her husband. He also never seems to be there at all.

You're spot on! I think the life she dreamed she had would have after Ash left the army hasn't happened. Even though she's said he doesn't want to be on social media, it's still noticeable he does duck all.

You can be deeply unhappy but a great content creator that has well-thought-out videos which will add some value to the viewer's life.
She could do a video about how to cope with stress when you have 2 children. Meditation etc.
Or the best ways to keep a toddler entertained. New games, games under budget...
Or with all this hellofresh sponsorship she gets, she could do a video on toddler and baby-weaning friendly recipes.
Instread its just nag nag nag nag nag... realistic mum!

Spot on. Yet she is still trying to portray how perfect her life is. I understand Ash not wanting to be in videos but I personally never shut up about how amazing my husband is, what a great dad, how much he does for us... You only ever hear her mention him when she's unhappy. Its so weird. A long time ago she used to say how lucky her and G were to have him - that never happens these days. Its so sad because theyve only been married a little bit.

Her videos aren't worth the watch. I watched the "what we eat in a day" as I do like things like that and other people's routines etc and whilst I appreciate it was an ad for hello fresh, I couldn't even tell you what any of them eat in a day.

There's so many other mum influencers doing a much better job than her. I don't know if anyone else follows notsofarmerswife, but she has a decent variety of content she also gets gifted stays, meals out etc. All Shan does is crappy reels with crappy quotes and ads for hello fresh and skin and me.

If she struggles with time to have well produced content she could just reduce how often she posts. she could this bi-weekly or monthly instead of weekly. In like she is in some sort of a rat race and cant escape

We all know that she doesn’t try to keep him entertained though. The tv entertains him!

She’s probably deeply unfulfilled. Dad of the year isn’t home the way she wanted him to be to keep G out the way whilst she produces content including magical baby girl.

Couldn’t make a success of breastfeeding content work. Hasn’t found a gap in the market for H related content. Isn’t a full time influencer. Her genuine life kicks involve having 18 different virtual jars for savings. That isn’t groundbreaking savings advice though, it’s just an extreme level of micromanaging.

Can you imagine how long and repetitive a monthly vlog would be if she did that?!

On the money!

I think her blogs have got significantly longer because she doesn’t have time to edit as thoroughly, so that’s why we’re seeing so much repetition over 40 sodding minutes.
 
She needs to start watching her half arsed vlogs back and cut all the repetitive bullshit out, but she is too bone idol.

She probably finds him being home absolutely no different to him working away. I would be so embarrassed if I was her knowing that people knew what a lazy incompetent husband I had chosen to parent my children.

Does anyone watch at home with Liv? I think I found her through Shan a while back, tried to find a thread but she doesn't seem to have one. I'm not sure what to make of her although definitely preferable to Shan!

God she always copies other creators tik toks/reels and NEVER credits them it drives me mad
I'll give her that it isn't easy coming up with something but when there's already 2858583 other doing it, why bother?! Especially when there isn't anything in the slightest to make it be different to the others.

Also, while it's probably meant to just be a funny thing, I don't actually think it is and it's just boring sad fishing. Yes, it is difficult being a mum and it's not far from the truth for many. However if you are dealing with the majority of the load of being a parent, do something about it rather than just make a crappy reel!!!!

It’s actually such an embarrassing reel.

Wonders why she has no time to do anything yet arses around on her phone all hours of the day. She would have filmed it several times too. Complete waste of time. It seems as though every other reel she does is all about giving herself a break and mums doing the best they can and putting them self first for once. All I can she is that she’s forever giving herself a break, always putting her needs first and wants validation from strangers that it’s okay that she’s doing it.

Completely separate to this but just thinking about it in terms of needing validation from strangers. She obviously has no siblings but seems fairly close to her mum. Seemingly very little / no relationship with A’s family who live near to them. Lives near ish to her granddad but apparently doesn’t visit very often. Works from home mainly but does a 2h commute each way into the office when business needs require. Why on earth have they chosen to live where they do?! A left the military so isn’t bound by military accommodation. She’s a young woman with no family nearby and at home with her children all day long, apart from to take a trip to Aldi or do Tesco click and collect. You’d think they’d want to live nearer to her family for the support (and it appears to be a beautiful area of the country too) but no. She’s isolated, chooses not to socialise with any other relatives for whatever reason, can’t be bothered to go out and make mum friends but luckily feels like she has real friends online, (whilst simultaneously ignoring comments because she doesn’t really care for the interaction) so needs that adoration from people she doesn’t know to boost her self esteem.

I wonder if she thought having children would build her world around her. Yet she just gets annoyed by them.
