Has anyone seen her recent TikToks about her gut health journey? She’s apparently been diagnosed with a parasite by a naturopath and is looking to heal it holistically. Naturopaths are completely unqualified and largely unregulated, and there have been a number of cases of Aussie naturopaths being sentenced to prison for their roles in people falling ill…

No disrespect to any runners, but shows her luxury paying for a running coaching app service when her pace is more of a brisk walk
Oi don’t diss the pace! It’s actually super nice to see someone run at a “normal” pace since most runs should only be done at about 80% effort. So if you factor in adrenalin and a 100% effort she could
probably run a decent 5k time. Which is definitely not a “brisk walk” unless maybe you’re 2m tall.

I’m sick of everyone acting like anything less than a 5:something (km!) pace is slow and not worthy the title “running”.

Sorry @Asgyui nothing against you personally ofc but you’ve hit a bit of a nerve.

Gives me weird vibes that Sid has his own channel now. I hope he's not just using Lydia to try and get internet fame.

had to unfollow her on insta, she’s so out of touch now! keep getting the ad she’s done shown to me where she says she treated her last year of uni like a 9-5 as if everyone can afford to do that and not have to miss lectures/study time to work a part time job!!

I hate speculating about it, and maybe its just a rocky patch but theres definitely trouble in paradise.

I have this weird feeling that the whole moving to Australia / WHV thing was Sids idea, and was what he wanted and Lydia’s just followed him along like a lap dog. Now she’s there and doesn’t want to be, feels like she’s not happy and is maybe doubting their relationship altogether.

I don’t understand how her flat mates aren’t isolating and have gone home? She shows in her video that they brought her food up to her room when she found out she was positive .. and her and Sid have obviously been in the kitchen and bathrooms before that point?

Also seems maaaad how much she’s again positing with this new boyfriend, you’d think she’d learn to be a bit more low key. 🤣
When my flatmate tested positive, i isolated for the full 14 days even though I hadn’t been that close to him except in the kitchen. The rule is that the full household has to isolate, so her flatmates should definitely be isolating.

I also agree about how much she is banging on about her boyfriend, I hate it when girls get with someone new and then their whole life revolves around them. I thought she said she was keeping it low key🤣😂

That's just my personal take and it's not based on anything in particular but they seem so out of sync in terms of their interests, personalities, general style etc. Chemistry doesn't reflect on camera, on what she chooses to show at least. I'm curious how they've started dating. Feels like she's molded herself into his vibe.
She was the year ahead of him on the same course, she put her textbooks on sale, he turned up on her doorstep and before you can say avo on sourdough they were a couple. It all happened very quickly so it'll be interesting to see how they get on living together.

Lydia broke up with Max at the end of her 1st year and she always said in videos that she wanted to be single for a while to focus on herself / didnt want anything serious. her and sid started seeing each other in autum term of 2nd term. i think that she gets validated by having a boyfriend and cannot be single for a long period of time

This is her third 'starting my new job' video. I can't be bothered to watch any of her videos when everything is the same.

According to her Insta stories, Sid is back visiting… again. Feels like it’s almost every week that he’s hopping on a plane now!

Goody Two Shoes has come good with a First Class Honours Degree. She will soon be living the dream abroad, self-employed and with the amazing Sid. And best of all, she'll be vlogging about their new adventure.
In Business too, the most mind-numbing and easy degree programme. She seems perfectly fine but I've never really invested time watching her since everything is so cookie cutter. Or maybe I've just been spoiled with all the scandals and absurdities surrounding Ruby.

Interesting new video. She doesn't think content creation full time is for her 🙄 I would say it's more because she isn't getting views anymore. But now they are planning to stay in Sydney for a year instead of 3 months and she's looking for a new job there.

She was exhausting in her weekly vlog, so woe is me about finding a job as if she doesn’t already have one that she’s been using money from to gallivant around for the last 6 months but is now ‘desperate for a job’. She can’t be surprised companies don’t want her if she isn’t saying she’s on a whv upfront

These study tubers are only relevant while they are actually studying.
I wish they would understand this. The only person I watch who has managed this transition from student studytuber to employed young adult seems to be PaigeY. I am totally okay with people being goody two shoes, not everybody has a wild side and it's fine to be just doing one's own thing 😬 But Paige actually has a life outside of her camera lens, she works, she socializes, she goes on dates and holidays etc and uses her vlogs to document a part of these, as content. Studytubers don't seem to grasp that people who have an audience for doing f all usually have big personalities (or trainwreck personalities) to carry that, nobody watches studytubers for that. Have a life and then vlog it, social media being the sole focus of one's existence is dull as ditchwater.

Is that because she has no personality and is boring AF? Her study videos worked because she was working towards her qualifications and it was an interesting journey that she knew how to document. She doesn't seem able to tell stories outside of studying. Her vlogs when she was in Copenhagen weren't great and since she's graduated they've just been dull. Anyone who can make Copenhagen, Berlin and Sidney look dull fully deserves to be let go by their management.
Agreed she seems a nice enough girl but wow her videos were boring as fuck.

to say she is supposed to be relatively minimalistic, against fast fashion and follows vegan lifestyle, why does she need to buy so much rubbish each year at the start of term, it seems quite wasteful
Indeed ... The best bit was when she said she'd bought those eggs to use in her laundry as they're more eco friendly and literally in the next breath she shows her handwash and shower gel. Both of which were in plastic bottles and are two of the easiest products to substitute for bars which are wrapped in cardboard. For someone who is supposed to be an influenza she doesn't seem to realise that bar soaps, shampoos and conditioners are the thing now.

How rich is she? Living in Copenhagen for a year in nice accommodation - one of the most expensive European cities. Was back at home for like a week and then spent god knows how long in Hawaii, and now is she on holiday somewhere else?? Surely her family are rich - even during her a levels the number of hauls she would do and the amount of designer/branded stuff she would buy was just insane to me
Her family are definitely well off, but tbh their house doesn't seem like they're crazy rich. I think she's probably making a lot of money off her YouTube. Molly Thompson makes over £35k a year off her YouTube, and her videos get much lower views than Lydia's do. Lydia does upload less frequently, but I would not be surprised if she's making upwards of £20k a year herself through her social media. Add in scholarships, student loans, and potentially some familial support, I don't think she's wanting for money.

To be fair she does have a bachelors degree so surely there should be options in relation to her degree?
Yes but she's got a totally generic "Business" degree from a uni that no-one outside the UK has ever heard of. Generic bachelor's degrees are, sadly, unlikely to make you stand out in the job market.

I can already tell she's going to be one of those influencers who sticks with making videos about their uni days even when they're well out of uni
