Well Louise did say Darcy sneaks on to Instagram to read comments so I don’t know how she’d manage that without a device like a phone or an iPad at least. So I wouldn’t be surprised if she did have one. Plus I imagine knowing what we do of Louise she’d want Darcy to have a phone for when she’s at her dads so they can still chat whilst she’s there.Darcy must have her own phone at this point surely? Louise probably hasn't mentioned it to avoid criticism and people questioning why she needs a phone at 10 years old, but from working with 10 year olds for my job a lot of them do have their own phones now.
i used to work in a cafe in Northampton,and Louise would come in sometimes. One of the guys I worked with used to always fan girl over her and run up to her and gush about how much he loved her people like that do existI know long time followers of Louise know D's name, but why are her parents creating accounts with her full (real) name (private or not)? I have a lot of friends who are teachers and none of them have their name spelt correctly/real name even on private FB accounts, so why are her parents so f'ing dumb? It's like people who blab birth time, date, names and weight all over SM to everyone, is security not an issue? Just watch You and see how easy it is to stalk/know a lot about a person without ever meeting them.
Speaking of Glitter fans...did anyone hear that guy in the London ballet vlog come over to Louise in Covent Garden and say "I'm a big fan of your work..."? Mad me LOL so hard, do people actually say that and to Louise of all people? A fan of exploiting your kid? I thought it was a bit odd to leave in as she then picked up from the same scene after it cut, so there was no need to keep it in, other than hoping we'd hear she has fans!
Just had a thought: Louise hasn’t put Watson in the dance account. More pettiness against Matt? Like previous posters have said we already know her full name so it’s not a safeguarding issue…Matt and Devon have created a private instagram account for Darcy.
Louise doesn't follow it.

I’m commenting on this without actually seeing her account so please forgive me if I’m mistaken. BUT… I come from a dance background, trained 4x a week minimum when I was younger, for exams, competitions & festivals, shows etc. I didn’t follow through with that path professionally as I enjoyed it as a hobby. However many of the girls (and guys!) that I went to dance classes with DID go on to train professionally. They worked their ass off learning routines, perfecting their technique and quite a few of them landed spots in top dance schools at college/university.I thought that! I looked at her friends account ballerinapoppet and she has lots of pics around London in her dancing outfits, no wonder Louise was pushing darcy to do the same!
Looking at her friend's page it seems like she is going way beyond London photo ops. From her bio and recent photos it seems she has being doing associates programmes with Royal Ballet and ABT and attends Tring full time. That indicates that she does have a lot of potential. Darcy is enjoying herself but I'd be surprised if she were to get those opportunities from the top ballet companies based on what we've seen of her dancing. I wonder if it's worse for her friend. There are a lot of young girls with potential who end up being assessed out of dance schools when they fail to meet the standards as they grow. That's tough enough, without having a whole dancing brand behind you. I can't see any advantage to it either. It's not as though vocational school places are handed out based on Instagram followers.I’m commenting on this without actually seeing her account so please forgive me if I’m mistaken.

I will tell you now NONE of them push this false ‘insta narrative’ of taking pictures in costume in tourist hotspots. Granted there are some great photo ops, but they use these to showcase their dance skills on Instagram. They find a good background to perform a routine, definitely not just to take a picture showing a very basic position, with a tag line of a fake ‘you can do it’-esque line.
anyways sorry for rambling but what I am trying to say is - if these girls want to succeed in dance professionally, running around Covent Garden in a tutu and having 50k follows isn’t going to get them any respect. And it is the insta obsessed mums that do this, not the children
Hasn’t she had this same gifted trip loads of times?i don’t know how to quote a post from another thread so here’s the link:
Louise Pentland #13 Soft office slob, cake in her gob, we MUST respect her job
It’s honestly a bit insulting that L thinks it’s appropriate to do a ‘dance Q and A’ when her daughter has barely completed grade 1 at her local dance school. How on earth does she think she’s qualified to talk about anything to do with dancing?! It’s laughable at this point. Having the money...tattle.life
but it seems she got the gifted trip

That’s actually shocked me. All 3 of them are just exploiting her. Time to step in Liam, you’re the last hope :|Matt and Devon have created a private instagram account for Darcy.

The thing that gets me is that when all the stuff about JKR's transphobia came out, Louise said that she didn't want to spoil the fun for Darcy, which I do understand. But why is she still continuing to accept freebies and promote things which do still give her money? Especially when she's already experienced these things a good few times already?Hasn’t she had this same gifted trip loads of times?

I’ve reported it as an account for someone who is underage. How these people have no regards for their child’s safety is beyond me.Why does one 10 year old need TWO Instagram accounts! She shouldn’t even have one she’s literally not old enough to have an account.
It won’t do anything. As long as the bio says monitored or ran by a parent then Instagram allows kids accounts which is awful…I’ve reported it as an account for someone who is underage. How these people have no regards for their child’s safety is beyond me.
That's shocking, bad enough allowing a minor to have their own named accounts but worse that Louise allows her daughter to essentially talk to those followers via q&a sessions and mini live chats! If this were some child from a deprived background the authorities would be called in!It won’t do anything. As long as the bio says monitored or ran by a parent then Instagram allows kids accounts which is awful…
Why does Darcy always two strike a pose, looks odd in this case! My girl would rather just look around without holding mum's hand to show their special bond, Pearls probably with the nanny...i don’t know how to quote a post from another thread so here’s the link:

I think a lifetime of being primed and prepared for the camera at all times by Louise makes Darcy pose automatically in photos rather than sit still and enjoy their time together; not her fault but she’s a product of her own upbringingThat's shocking, bad enough allowing a minor to have their own named accounts but worse that Louise allows her daughter to essentially talk to those followers via q&a sessions and mini live chats! If this were some child from a deprived background the authorities would be called in!
