I'm not believing that story they've invented. It's more like that it's because she's spent years telling her fans that she loves them, that they're like family, that she wishes they could all meet up and that she considers them auntie's to her kids.
The comments on her grid are stalker level with these weirdos saying they love kids they've never met, that they want to hug and kiss them and that they too feel like family.
She's even had paedophile pages following her!
She's failed as a parent to safeguard her kids in the name of making money and she's reaping what she sows. I do believe that she's scared in some level, but she should be - she's encouraged this behavior! Problem is that she continues to break their privacy and dignity.
Her solution to hide away and isolating her kids isn't protecting them at all, getting them off SM and setting boundaries to strangers does that. All she's doing now is not giving them a childhood. She's got all that money and could take them anywhere at any times and give them memories that some could only dream of giving their family, but still she pimps them out for her next few quid and deny them a well rounded upbringing
