Especially with her parents being registered and active foster carers at the time. How utterly shitty does her tale make them look?

Glad to have you back Lenny. I too want her to do Christmas Strictly, the comments on the Strictly thread would be absolute gold .

I wonder if her unruly labia could catch a coin? Being a 'bit Navy round the edges' you hear tales from the East.

I may be recalling it wrongly but I think the “sex work” only happened once, it was before she was a mother and she said her abusive female partner (during the pregnancy) used it against her and taunted her about it.
It was that strange article on buzzfeed where Jack later “came out” as being the girl in the story, there was originally a false name

Which blows a massive hole in the entire origin story of The Poverty™ Not only are her family around, so's that of the babydaddy.
Also leaving her faceache open to the world also blows a huge hole in the whole trolling stalking narrative! Cake house brick/eating

It's only a theory but Jack's so slippery with language that 'being paid to do a specific thing because of her specific sex' could easily translate into 'sex work'. And back out again, as required.
Didn't she actually use the word prostitution at some point, though? I agree that nothing adds up, but surely even a master of weasel wording like Jack couldn't claim "I never actually said I was sleeping with people for money, did I? Serving shots in your undercrackers is a form of prostitution too!!"

Ugh, I feel dirty for even questioning someone's claimed experience, but based on literally everything else she's lied/misled people about, it's hard to take anything she says at face value.

ETA: Found it

There is a Twitter with few sporadic tweets but one or two of them are ahem... interesting.
I think she name dropped on purpose too, had to have. Just for the record, I only had a quick glance through public pages, I'm a very nosy ninny.

Er, Fraus, I have just realised that the friend I am meeting for a late lunch tomorrow afternoon has spent the last 20 or so years living in the same suburb of Southend as the smol pixie and his most recent ex has a Small Boy who I think might be SB's age or thereabouts - Jack follows her on Instagram anyway. I'm not promising anything, because he is notoriously clueless about anything internet-based (to the point where he doesn't have a smartphone or an email address), but I will ask.

I have a feeling this has been left open for a reason. I also think it should probably left alone.

Edit to add, that is just my opinion. Not trying to Mod.

No I get it, I think it all very odd too. I've sat on that for a while thinking I probably shouldn't post

Didn’t she do a thread that predated us but someone found on the threader app clarifying that she was indeed a full blown whore (her word - would never be mine!).

Think this era coincided with the sex work is work / revolting prostitutes book coming out era on Twitter so naturally an entirely new part of the rich tapestry of her origins story was exploited for views / likes / work.

Nothing she claims is ever more than a smidgen of the truth. She embellishes using other people’s story. The sex worker thing was probably a partner and her had sex then the partner gave her a tenner because she was moaning about being broke. Or Belle du Jour was trendy. It’s easy to talk about all these things she’s claimed, it’s hard to believe it’s anything more than a touch of the truth.

ETA much like RSM, I think she’s just a bandwagoner. I’m actually surprised she hasn’t jumped on the woke train more.
