Hunters & Heels #6 Buy Lauren McDermott

[Horseyhelen]

She is so stuck in the 50s with the bowl of nuts and a nutcracker and bowl of satsumas. Hallmark called they want their Christmas clichés back. Those poor bow tie and duffle coat wearing boys are going to get bullied something rotten unless she drags herself into this century.

As for her blatant sales channel of an IG feed surely people can see through the sh*t

 

[Clare]

The end pic on that ridiculous fabrics/cake ad is so sweet of her and her youngest boy. I find it so utterly sad that she uses images like that to sell to us. That little boy looking up to his mum adoringly and her using his sweetness and innocence to make money. Lauren, if your advert isn’t good enough without your children in, make a better one. Those sweet boys deserve their complete privacy, not being used in photos for some here today, gone tomorrow, meaningless ad. Where did these influencers lose their soul along the way.

 

[Aunt Lydia]

She 100% didn’t pay full price for the cottage.

Also, I bet deep down her mum wishes she could have a birthday gift without it having to be a PR exercise.
My mum would HATE that I’d roped her into another AD for her birthday! She’d definitely rather pay full price for the whole thing herself rather than pose for photos and have me sat on my phone grafting away during what is meant to be a relaxed day.

It just seems so tacky when you’re supposed to be ‘treating’ someone for their birthday, yet you’ve clearly been begging for weeks beforehand to see what freebies you can get.

Lauren’s at a Welsh cottage currently but don’t worry, she will share all of the details once she leaves, just in case her ‘fans’ flock there for authographs and photos because she’s some kind of A lister

 

[Rainbow Blossom]

If he did set the table like that (which I doubt) he is only copying his neurotic control freak mother and that is not something to boast about.

 

[MissTeddy]

Honestly Colin is NOT attractive- not on any planet.
I’m sure he’s very nice, good father etc etc.
But HOT, he is NOT.

 

[Comfysofa]

Don’t use her Look Fantastic code please!! Loads of instagrammers have permanent discounts with them - 40plusnotgivingupyet is one and far more deserving- but they also have offers and discounts on all the time. Be selective who your commission goes to - when she is flogging you full price BB you can be sure look fantastic has it discounted yet she has never mentioned it before, but now she wants you to use it to line her pockets and she acts like she is doing you a bloody favour at the same time.

 

[GossipMongoose]

Oh. my. god.
That Halloween picture with poor Archie’s face covered she’s really living up to the parody isn’t she?!

Ahem, he chose his own mask, if you don’t mind.
Also, she’s never heard of the plague doctor’s beak mask before? Did she actually go to school? I went to an absolutely crap comp, dropped history at GCSE and we did this

 

[shoegalxo]

Of course they have - she needs to ensure that HER Christmas is paid for courtesy of those ever so helpful swipe ups, add links - can’t stand the woman. She is so transparent.

We have quite a large amount of land with our home and an old country style garden which I'm very proud of - my shed is literally that - a shes where I pot plants / store bits.. what a fucking shed is for. It's full of spiders webs and smells of mould. Why does she have to portray everything as "cosy". Lauren - it's still a fucking shed hun.

 

[Pass_the_popcorn#2]

Those boys carrying napkin sticks in the woods was the most ridiculous things I’ve ever seen on Instagram! Someone should have intervened at that point and had a word.

 

[cantstandinfluencers]

Her son asked her to wear her Santa red coat so that he can spot her at the Xmas play! yeah right! Pull the other one Lauren. Make sure you add an aff link later for all the huns who will ask you about the coat!

 

[ced60]

Also did anyone else think it was so odd that she’d designed a full on invite like it was a wedding invitation for her mums birthday? It wasn’t even a party just a night with Laur, Col and the kids

Just the sort of thing Hyacinth Bucket would have done - she is a parody of that character, all the time striving to be something she isn't. When the kids grow up and hate her for everything she has put them through in their childhood, it will be just like Hyacinth was with her son Sheridan who never visited her and Lauren will be left making Col's life a misery , still dragging his tripod, camera and little stepladders through the streets of Ledbury looking for photo opportunities. If that was my daughter I would tell her to get a grip, not be joining her in ads for clothes and whatever freebie we can grab, so I can only think she is complicit.

 

[superlushxo]

Honestly. Watching her in the beginning used to make me feel like I needed to do more and buy more.
But now I realise watching her, is that her boys will have no genuine or authentic memories of their childhood. It's all wooden swings and baking stupid cakes, and getting the perfect shots that probably take about an hour of her having to film and re start. It's actually really sad when you think about it. They'll realise this when they're older and compare themselves with other children their age who are getting muddy in the woods in their dirty clothes, having fun at Pizza Hut and actually LAUGHING without having a camera pointed in their face 24/7.
I must admit I did LOL when I saw them dressed like that for the ivy. Jesus wept Lauren they look horrific

 

[Clare]

Oh I bet he certainly does!
Most guys probably look forward to watching a bit of porn while their Mrs is out. Not Col, he just looks forward to being able to veg on the sofa without having to wear a Breton stripe.

Or a Barbour wax jacket!! When Lauren’s out I bet he puts the big light on and blows out the candlelight

 

[Latetotheparty]

I had to unfollow sometime before covid hit - part of me can’t believe she’s still trotting out the same crap from . How can someone be so old fashioned it makes me cringe soo badly .
Please woman get some Nikes on them kids feet and
A gaming t shirt and let them live .

I’m baffled to know who she actually appeals to now? And who she thinks are her captive audience? All I ever see liking and commenting on her posts are the usual insta huns with the same old copy & paste responses. Her photos used to be aesthetically pleasing and although I used to think she was annoying with the ads, at least they were staged well and her photos looked lovely (ignoring the sickly captions). Then it all went to her head, as her page grew, her greed grew and she just became so twee and ridiculous and so far from who she used to be. Not wanting to sound like a brag in any way, but my husband and I have very good jobs and in our social circle and line of work we come across some very, very affluent people, they do not act and dress like Lauren and their children are not dressed up like her boys in any way! Real wealth whispers, and they would think someone like Lauren is a joke.

 

[Stardustsmile28]

Out again in yet another enclosed space , she has absolutely no thought for the rest of her family and keeping her parents safe . We have cancelled several things in the last week to try to keep other family members safe at Christmas

Not only an enclosed space, but one absolutely jam packed with people.

Her Merry Christmas message is an Ad for cutlery??? Really??? How vulgar and unnecessary...

 

[Pass_the_popcorn#2]

I can’t look at photos of him anymore, without thinking he looks like an opera singer!!

 

[SarcasticEllis]

Our Laur would like you to believe her day consists of making her boys pancakes for breakfast, delivering them to school, surrounded by birdsong, collecting her sweetpea seeds, swishing around the garden in her #gifted dresses, meeting friends for coffee… NOT sitting blocking followers asking legitimate questions, mass email begging new brands, keeping constant tabs on her instahun competition, commenting on every expert in the fad du jour so they see her
What a life eh??

maybe she uses her fancy planner to build in the time to beg, block and browse?

 

[CaptainJane]

Urgh the latest post "the smell of toast and coffee filling the house"... yes Lauren hun. It's called bastard breakfast. Every house smells like that you romanticised c*nt!!!!
ahhh she triggers the fuck out of me

You'll love tonight's. Not just an after school bike ride, but a ride through the ORCHARDS. Before SUNSET. With matching shirts, swishy dress and an enamel bowl for fruit harvesting (how the eff do you get that home on a bike?).

 

[#aff]

I keep laughing at the ‘looks like an opera singer’
