This is exactly why I came here today.I don’t often comment but this is getting me down now.
A woman whocleansher house, screws over the vulnerable for cash, is treated like the second coming of Christ himself by hershoppersfollowers, who think she can do no wrong. The same followers who (like most of us at one point, I’m sure) were once entertained by her normal home, watching her buy home bargains tat and calling her cloths daft names. She’s now so completely unrelatable to these people that she’s got alpacas wandering round her mansion in which she’s got so many rooms she doesn’t know what to do with each of them.
She’s gifted tens of thousands of pounds of unnecessary crap even a bed for a dog when literal human children in this country are without beds. She’s now leaving the previous set of gifted furniture in her old house that she can afford to just hand over to someone else rent free and still gets given thousands more!
Personally, I’m not jealous - but I’m angry. Angry that she gets called out on non of her shit, her wastefulness, her dangerous tips, her lies, her self absorbed lack of reading-the-room when so many cannot afford to heat their homes and feed their children and she’s still actively pushing debt onto those who follow her with the relentless pushing of ad ad ad undeclared ad -must keep up with the Hinches - let’s be honest her demographic pushes to the stay at home mums, the younger families and the vulnerable. If they think they can buy a piece of her fairytale who cares if the gas bill gets paid?!
And I know this from experience of her, other influencers and Instagram in general. I once wanted to make my house insta-perfect, had an insta home account, made myself sick with anxiety to clean clean clean and up to my eyeballs with debt. Next accounts, very accounts, credit cards, loans I had the lot and I still wasn’t any happier with all that ‘stuff’, in fact I was severely depressed.
She’s encouraging this on a massive scale, even her Tesco range churning out the same things season after season in a slightly different shade of griege which everyone buys again because saint sophie said so. It’s just a complete disregard for the state of the country at the moment. READ.THE.ROOM
I'm moving house. I have 10 days. Not 10 months.
I used to see hinch as an inspiration - now I see someone who has no clue what work is. And her 'I'll never forget what you guys have done for me ' balls today - just no.
As usual it's all what people done For her. Or given her. It’s all me me me with that woman. All of us who are going to be struggling to pay our bills, feed our kids - We are the ones who pay for that lifestyle.
