Story time for you ...
Back in November I was in Selfridges with my then 7mo.
We’d had a lovely day with my friend and by the time we had finished it was late afternoon so I decided to wait for my husband to finish work nearby so we could all travel back to Hertfordshire together.
I had 2% battery so i called him and said we’ll wait for you in the food hall just incase my battery died.
SO we’re sat along the benches/tables that are against the windows looking out onto the street. Baby was asleep in his pram and i was twiddling my thumbs. An Arab lady came and sat two seats down from me and started talking to me in Arabic (i often get mistaken) i politely told her i did not speak the language and turned around. She then comes over and starts talking to me in English and spots my baby in the pram ... she started shouting in her language at the baby waking him up .. by now I’m feeling a bit uneasy. Anyway she went back and sat in her seat and started eating her food. By now about 10mins have passed and baby is awake (thanks to her) so i took him out the pram to sit on my lap and look out the window to wait for his dad. This
bleeping woman has come over to me again and she said ‘let me hold your baby’ i said ‘oh no i don’t think so’ there was a bit of back and fourth and she would not drop it. She started yanking his arms trying to get him off me saying ‘GIVE ME THE BABY’ She kept kissing his hands and i was trying to pull away from her. In the end she screamed at me again something in Arabic and walked off.
I was gobsmacked i could not believe what had just happened. Im a gobby
tit but i was sooooo taken aback i was speechless. People were starring but no one helped me. I quickly shoved the babY back in the pram and managed to call my husband in tears before my battery died. Luckily he wasn’t far!
One of the scariest experiences of my life.
Basically what I’m trying to say is there are
bleeping nutters out there. I am a nobody and someone literally tried taking my baby from my arms. God knows what her motive was. She must have been unstable i really don’t know.
But Soph encourages allllll these STRANGERS to love her baby What would she do if something like that happened to her? If she was out and recognised? These crazies literally think they are her friends and Ronnie’s aunties/uncles.
Sorry that was long but it did have a point! She needs to protect her son and stop encouraging people to believe they are part of his life.
Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk
happened to my son before but luckily a few smacks on the back and it came out. Don't wish that fear on anyone
that’s horrible to hear you never go to London now alone it is the psychological affects more than the event. If I ever went through it again I’d be different but that day I literally just picked her up n walked away shock I think as I just squeezed her n didn’t let her out my sight rest of holiday.
