It's not true. Notice how careful she is in what she actually says. She doesn't say *why* she's moving, she makes a great big song and dance about being scred of random tit and checking her bank balance, but she never actually says she's skint or unable to afford things or even that she's downsizing for financial reasons, she just alludes to that, in great detail. Also, I think we *might* have heard a bit more about the whole agent theft thing if it was actually based on fact - either it wasn't or she got it sorted out pretty quickly after she wrote this and got the £50k she says was due to her.
The agent stealing from her was something I found odd £50k is a hell of a lot of money you’d of thought criminal proceedings would of taken place at least. I swear she got the Jack part of her name from Jackanory.

Long time lurker, first time poster here. LOVE the useful summary. I gobbled up the JM guest appearance thread like a sloppy sausage bolognese brekkie. I was a JM fan until my Tattle friend showed me the light and this lovely page 😊
Hi 👋🏻 can I ask why you were a fan? Did you follow much of her antics or dropped in and out? I know a good few folks on here were, but I’ve never liked her so I’m curious as I can’t see the appeal or understand how she gets away with the porkies. She set my chancer senses tingling when she bounced on the scene with an ease that jarred with her rhetoric and I just put her in the “shouty snake” box. Not asking in a “how could you be a fan?!” way btw 😀 I can see how she would hoodwink people.

So I signed up to her blog ages ago (I’m one of the many reformed fans), and I have been utterly spammed with update posts. WTF. Why would you spam people who
Are probably fans like this? Mental and totally unnecessary. Surely there’ll be a flood of new hausfrau joining us soon after this 😄

But I thought she said she gave it ALL to charity?


If you're a liar you need to have a good memory for God's sake. People have said that at the time of the KH stuff she was sharing screenshots of stuff she was going to buy with the money. Hard to prove it either way due to her mass deleting tenancies, mind.

I'm catching up and still pages to go but have to just say, who the duck does she think she is and who does she think she's talking to?!

Jack you are not the patron Saint of poverty, you basically turned your back on family help, left your job and chose to be skint for 6 months and you have been living off it for over ten years, very comfortably might I add. You don't know the first thing about true poverty. Sit down and shut the duck up you unbearable bleep.

Was Jack a bit low on cash for a while? She never mentions it.
yes there was a spell for about a year she was a bit short on cash, keeps it quiet though as she found it embarrassing .didn’t feel she could ask for any help from her loaded family as she feels uncomfortable asking hand outs you see 🤫

tit, the thought of waking up to the inane ramblings of a psycho every day would be enough to tip one over the edge.

And so I was wrong. I predicted she'd last until Saturday!

If only you could all see my little sad face.

I have FOUND the post but dare not share for fear of triangulation as it was not Twitter....she said she got paid royalties almost 2 years ago for the first 2 books....although around the time I'm sure (cant find it yet) she said it was about 20k

JM in her grungy grey pants reminds me of Leonard Rossiter as Rigsby in 'Rising Damp.' Always trying to get into Miss Jones' pants.

I do like Miguel but I unfollowed him recently because he did an Insta story where he bought his wife a Chanel handbag.

It was at the height of lockdown and it just seemed in poor taste to me to be posting that/showing off at that time.
I love Miguel. They are fairly minted!

Just in case you’re crowdsourcing answers from ex fans 😄: I initially found her blog circa 10 years ago, during a time where I really didn’t have much money. Think I googled “how to feed yourself in no money” or something similar. I didn’t really like her much per say, more I thought her recipes were incredibly cheap and at least inventive (honestly though, don’t know what I was thinking now). I did believe her spiel to some extent, though I did have the odd question. My parents are proper working class and live in council housing and there’s no way they would have let me and my kid basically starve. However it’s wasn’t really until she started attacking people ie. JO that I just realised I kept seeing her repeating the same victomhood bullshit over and over. And ever worse, she is a bully and a victim.

I was trying to find Hunger Hurts and I came across this and, well would you look at this nonsense : https://cookingonabootstrap.com/2018/05/29/poverty-lingers-in-a-septic-wound/

ETA: This was May, 2018. She was asking for donations so she could move into her 'crappy bungalow'.
um 'eBay sale'
Didn't include the Emin and Vivienne(RIP) dress in that did you Jackie? You absolute scam artist.

How does she sleep at night knowing her lies are putting poor people out of pocket?
