I was the same. The wool was removed around the time of her first book so I never bought it, but don’t feel bad. She is good at getting into your head, otherwise she wouldn’t be so successful. She’s a businesswoman, everything she posts on that account is for her own benefit and nobody else’s. I too thought I had to spend all day cleaning. I have two little children and I couldn’t be present with them because I thought I had to clean all the time. I felt my anxiety get worse, every time I went on Insta to watch stories of spotless houses and then looking around me feeling like I was getting nowhere and just going round in circles because my children were being, well, children. I felt like I had to do it all, and I used to get so irrationally angry with my husband and the kids, and ending up in floods of tears most days. That’s when I knew it had to stop. I quit the stupid “Hinch hauls” and stopped watching her stories, only doing so now to roll my eyes at the crap she spouts out. I came here originally because of the PTWM situation, but reading the Hinch threads made me so glad that others could see through her schemes too and I wasn’t alone. Tattle gets a bad rep, but it’s one of the few outlets for people who can see the detrimental effects these influencers have. Most people have been really nice to each other and respectful of differing opinions. It’s not the shithole they want you to think it is.Thank you!Honestly I bought her first book too. Luckily only paid £5 from b&m It made it worse because I was feeling guilty constantly that I was spending less time with my son and more time cleaning and watching her stories, which I was. Now I don't care if after my tea there is still dishes in the sink and my boards are a mess, it just means I get more time with my son before he goes to bed and then once he's asleep I can clean. It was constant guilt but I felt I needed to clean to have a house like hers, virtually sterile. She's fucked up and more people need to realise it x
Yes you have!I have a question I use the 3 in 1 pods and was under the impression you don’t need to use a separate fabric softener. Have I been doing this wrong should I be using both ?
We don’t, but how many others do you know that, while on maternity leave can afford for their other half to quit work, have a very large extension built, stay in multiple rented cottages while the extension is built, etc. A lot is gifted yes, but some they will have funded themselves. When I was on maternity leave, we were skint!How do we actually know she’s a millionaire? I just think it’s so crazy someone can make such an obscene amount of money from cleaning your sink
That's exactly how I was, kicking off at my husband for leaving a few crumbs on the board after I had just sprayed it with ZofloraI was the same.

How much does she look like the drag queen on rupaul's drag race UK??Just put the god damn book down for once ffs you beggy walking advert.
She's signed to gleam futures with almost 3 million followers, does loads of adverts, has had the second best selling book of the year in the UK and a dozen publishers were bidding for the rights and has a new book out soon.We don’t, but how many others do you know that, while on maternity leave can afford for their other half to quit work, have a very large extension built, stay in multiple rented cottages while the extension is built, etc. A lot is gifted yes, but some they will have funded themselves.

Louis Theroux styleI’d love to do a proper interview with Hinch. Away from Jamie or Gleam so she can’t be spoon-fed answers. I’d just love to pick her brains and find out how she really feels conning ordinary people out of their money!
She also made a point of showing off the infant formula. Probably wants to be trolled about formula feeding (not that she should be trolled) so she can gain sympathy before the book comes out.Soooo she’s cleared out her kitchen but the only thing left in there, clearly on show for the world to see, is her gifted Tommee Tippee steriliser
Shes sneaky as fuck!
Plus no *gifted on the dishwasher or flooring!
How does she get away with it all??
Oh I know the feeling! Looking back now I’m ashamed at how I let a stranger (or strangers) on the internet make me feel. I hate that I believed her tripe because I’ve never been the person to follow hype before. I think people like her also prey on people’s’ loneliness. I stay at home with the kids (had to quit my job once my 2nd came along - childcare reasons), I don’t have many friends and family are too far away to see frequently. Social media has been my window to the outside world. People like Hinch bleating on that we’re all her “best friends” etc etc. It isn’t hard to see why a lot of people would believe it if they’re vulnerable or lonely. It’s quite sad. I feel so much better now that I’m away from all that. My kids can make a mess if they want, as long as they’re playing and having fun. Like you said, it can wait until they’re in bed asleep. I feel sorry for Ronnie when he’s a bit older, he won’t be allowed to so much as breathe in that sterile environment. Can you imagine her letting him loose with playdoh or paint?!That's exactly how I was, kicking off at my husband for leaving a few crumbs on the board after I had just sprayed it with Zoflorait's crazy how sucked in you get and how badly it can affect your mental health. I was screaming and shouting around my house when things were out of place and crying when the house didn't look perfect and there was 'clutter' but now I've seen through the bullshit my house is lived in and lots of love and happiness is here now. I've been a lot better in myself and a lot happier now I feel I don't need to rely on 'Hinching Myself Happy'
I'm the same, was diagnosed with postnatal depression, at home all the time with my now 2 year old while my husband works, about to have my second in 4 weeks. Hardly any friends that live close by and my family I don't hardly see either. We aren't Sophies friends we are her shopper's as Jamie once called us. He will probably be allowed to play with play doh and felt tips but at nannies house so she doesn't mess up Tat Mansion xOh I know the feeling!

It’s sickening, isn’t it? To think we had a hand in paying for their lifestyle at the detriment of our own MH. They ought to be ashamed, not us. Bet they’re sat at home laughing at their “Hinchers.”I'm the same, was diagnosed with postnatal depression, at home all the time with my now 2 year old while my husband works, about to have my second in 4 weeks.

Laughing all the way to the bank!It’s sickening, isn’t it? To think we had a hand in paying for their lifestyle at the detriment of our own MH. They ought to be ashamed, not us. Bet they’re sat at home laughing at their “Hinchers.”
It makes perfect sense, I really struggled yesterday and today I'm teary/weepy for no reason. Sometimes I want to hide from my MH stuff and yesterday made me think about it even more and got stuck inside my own head (dont know if that makes sense?).I was exactly the same yesterday. I spent most of it in a daze. Everyone else seemed so relaxed opening up about their mental health but I just didn’t have the words or the courage to do it. I napped a lot. Didn't eat much. Hardly spoke to my kids or husband. Today I feel better as the pressure is off?? If that makes sense.
Its not just her, there are a team of people behind her pushing these products, someone previously said that her instagram is a sales channel with brand rep who is a professional sales person getting people to buy things, one of her Hinchers called it QVC, so very true.How she can do what she does, playing off with the anxiety, which she clearly doesn't have, scamming her 'hinchers' with the constant swipe ups even though you can get some of that stuff a lot cheaper on other sites and beg constantly for freebies and still sleep at night. Luckily I never bought any swipe up shite just a load of cleaning products I now haven't a clue what to do with
I think they are probably expected to Instagram it all? For advertisement?OK so i only follow Grinch and Jotties Journals (i do like her she's not quite as devious as grinch) but can I just say how ABSOLUTELY insulting it is that while that poor woman from P&G is working and showing them things, they are ALL ON F'ING INSTAGRAM.... my god show some respect to the person doing the demonstration and pay attention - Jottie's instagraming about the new bicarb stuff and the person beside her is on IG uploading a story - FFS people show some respect
Yeh I agree. They'll have been prepped:I think they are probably expected to Instagram it all? For advertisement?
This. I worked in training/launching new vehicles and we saw a shift of asking to turn phones off to encouraging everyone to post to social media as much as possible.I think they are probably expected to Instagram it all? For advertisement?
