To be honest (and I know this will be unpopular) I think it’s pretty disgusting to be messaging every brand she ever works with telling them all about every mistake that she has ever made. The funny thing is, over on the Rebecca Lamb thread, posters were falling over themselves to say that her boys’ snowsuits looked like the KKK and not ONE person said anything! I personally don’t think the comment in itself is that bad- it’s just an observation surely?! However, I agree how she handled it afterwards was bad. That’s a mistake. People make mistakes. She should be allowed to move forwards now.
I see this forum like a staff room in a workplace. Mindless gossip goes on. That’s life. If my colleague made a big fuckup and I kept reporting her over a year after it happened, time and time and time again.. would it be her with the problem or me?
Why should people who are openly racist, lie and deceive people (swipe ups, ads) should get to live a lavish life of freebies, oh and then sell them on afterwards. It's ok wonder people complain. Rebecca is constantly making mistakes and never ever attempts to own them. It's always someone else's fault

Catching up...
But let’s not forget deleting polite questioning regarding “her” book from a same sex couple and having that deleted!

Rebecca has NO understanding of the real world.

One of my ex-colleagues (female) got very drunk at a non-work event and made an inappropriate comment about one of the team’s religion.
She was promptly let go the next morning.

Welcome to the real world. There was no campaign of bullshit #bekind, no cryptic bleeping instagram posts, none of her partner direct messaging her ex-colleagues in a threatening manner. She found a new job, and got on with her bleeping life. 🙄

ONE MISTAKE in capitals ... oh Rebecca if only it was one.
"sharing lots of my life" should read "A Director of a Limited Company that specialises in media advertising"

You did not "apologise wholeheartedly", deciding on a 'no fucks given' half hearted response until called out by the national press.
I have never directly contacted brands but I doubt very much that they are fully aware of the situation prior to their collaboration with you as you will find that it is not as you put it, "a sticky situation' and that they want to 'support you' rather than there is NO place for racism in business or indeed in life. M&S fired their newly appointed Loyalty Card chief in 2014 following 'racist' language at work - that how business works.

I know of one company that was looking for a Instagram series of advertisements that found your two fingers salute the biggest red flag against a collaboration. In the words of the MD it showed a "lack of professionalism, a great deal of petulance and immaturity" and if any of his staff gave a prospective client ( and your followers Rebecca are prospective clients both of the brands you take a fee from to promote and indeed of yourself as you earn from affiliate links they click on) a two fingers salute there would be a disciplinary procedure actioned immediately. Very appropriately IMO he called you "a loose cannon"

What many of us have a great deal of disquiet about, is Lee (another director of Mrs Meldrum Ltd) whilst promoting a family holiday as part of an advertising campaign / paid partnership for Neilson decided to not only ignore a potential safeguarding request but three days later posted mocking replies. What if the individual that was captured in the photograph was in a foster or adoptive home following abuse ? You were asked to 'edit' the image not delete, just edit. Was that another 'no fucks given' moment or do you simply not care that potentially you had identified where someone might be, therefore causing distress and possibly harm. Neilson being a brand that promotes 'family holidays' must have reservations about a Media Company they partnered with having a cavalier attitude to safeguarding during that partnership.

DLP - only days ago when you requested ideas for content, a follower suggested DLP tips as you had been there so could advise on shortest queue times, best time of year to go, best rides to go on etc.
Are you going to be HONEST to your followers and say "It was a fully paid trip with a VIP guide thrown in free so perhaps I'm not the best person to advise regarding queue times and costs etc " The VIP guide gives FastPass access 5-15 mins waiting times, reservations to shows & restaurants and an exclusive area to watch the shows and parades, oh and including park tickets if you have a VIP guide it will cost you approx 1500-2000 euros for the full day - conservative estimate from three years ago. Hmmm perhaps your followers didn't get that memo from you.

A promise to run a raffle for a local charity resulted in ...... nothing. If you had been serious about it you would have contacted Michelle or Danielle and offered your generous raffle prize which would have been placed on their Charity JustGiving page under your name with a set donation being asked to secure an entry to the draw with a closing date on it and the draw would have been conducted on your behalf to comply with the Lotteries and Gaming Act. Empty words with no action.

Both the FoodBank post and your gleeful boast at claiming a free burger meant for those who had given their all to help those caught in the devastating floods on Deeside by storm Frank over New Year 2015/2016, have been branded 'morally reprehensible' not by the 'vicious women' you claim in your post but by a group of students in Aberdeen who spend a considerable amount of their free time helping vulnerable children and families in this area.

So Rebecca you see it is not ONE MISTAKE a year ago, it is a pattern of behaviour and a series of events by the two directors which have the cumulative effect of damaging the reputation of the Limited Company Mrs Meldrum Limited

(I see Robertronaldrose post has gone - however if RRR chooses to continue reading, I have a life thank you.)

I've been watching out for your response @G&TGal, always measured and well-considered.

I wish someone, someone who lurks here and follows her account (?)would tag Kate Ellison and Louise Pentland in the comments and ask for their views on the piss taking of Rebecca on the Influencers Retreat in January.

You are right..that was trolling and nasty. We all felt it was so. We stood up for her on this board and some of us felt pretty bad for her. That was straight in your face humiliation from people who claim to be her "friends'.
What did they do/say?

If the big f*ckup was racist behaviour, your colleague probably wouldn’t be in the job a year later? 🤔 As a business owner, she handled the fallout appalling badly, and has continued to do so ever since. She’s not truly sorry, only sorry that she has lost work/money, and this is obvious. If she was genuinely remorseful (for the right reasons), I think she would be able to move forward. But she’s not.

It’s also really sad about the cat, it’s an awful way to lose a pet 🙁

Some great and very serious points made in your post. I seem to remember you mentioning your 'friend/contact' and at the time assumed had they been impressed by the Meldrums they would have sitting in their dream kitchen by now?

So sad about Mouse, I'm a huge cat lover and have lost one the same way. It's heartbreaking but it's a blessing they had closure as we've suffered that also. He did look such a character. Losing a much loved pet is so hard for a family and explaining to children can be tough.

What exactly is it that she has done to make people dislike her? I’ve heard about the kkk joke thing. But I don’t think that’s a good reason. Many people make distasteful jokes etc ricki jervais makes his living off it. And it wasn’t even her who said it. So just wondering what the other reasons are? I can understand people contacting companies when it’s a known groomer. Has she done bad things? Thanks

I had forgotten about the selling of stuff she had been gifted!!! If she d sold them and given the money to a charity fair enough... But no straight into her greedy grubby hands. The list of bad/deceitful, unprofessional business behaviour, greedy grubby behaviour is just getting longer and longer!!

Just remembered the charity giving page she set up which raised the grand total of £37 NON of which was donated by her or Lee not a single bloody pound. Disgraceful😠 Eve rything listed by us tattler s today are facts, things YOU Rebecca,knowingly chose to do . You have no moral compass. That's what gets us angry!!!!!

But it’s not one mistake. It’s a huge bleeping balls up of her business ethic and management. There’s evidence of her inboxing people through doxxing and threaten police involvement through bullying/trolls because of a persons complaint. It’s not what she did or didn’t do about the racist shite it’s her constant duck ups and then just ignores it and now is claiming she made one mistake and that’s fucked her life up for the last year. Ha hahahahaha don’t make me laugh

I think I might say bye again for a little while. Her latest post, and all the gushing (and, quite frankly, astounding) comments which are basically excusing racism as ‘a joke, a bit of fun, etc’ have really disheartened me. While she has such blind followers (and the desire to earn money for nothing) she’ll continue trying to make a success of this ‘career’, and she’ll keep using us ‘trolls’ as a way to garner sympathy and increase engagement. Her latest post has far more comments than any other recent ones 🙈 So frustrating!

Also her followers saying everyone makes mistakes - um no I’ve never made a comment in my workplace about the KKK or stuck fingers up at my clients or lied about a work contract like she did with DLP (I could get sued if I did) sooo... maybe us normal people who don’t suck up the ass of other influencers in a bid to be the next big influencer (move on huns, the time has passed) think that what she’s done is ridiculous and it is time to shut up shop, get off her arse and get a real job?!

Honestly there is not one thing she could say to apologise for the torrent of utter lies and deceit which have been the last few years of her content. For me, her “cancer scare” in a Next ad was the lowest of so many lows, and what brought me to Tattle.

I didn’t troll her in real life, I didn’t DM her, I certainly didn’t reach out to Next, I didn’t turn up on her doorstep to scream at her (even though I know exactly where it is), I didn’t get in touch with the Daily Mail, or trading standards, or the ASA.

I joined this forum, and vented, because someone profiting from CANCER, a disgusting, terrifying disease which had recently ripped a hole in my life after losing a loved one, really UPSET me. I cried in anger and frustration and this platform brought some comfort.

Mrs Meldrum says BE KIND but doesn’t think of those single, widowed parents while she rants about “flying solo” and how much of a drain it is. She doesn’t think of those with military families where partners are away for months, in truly dangerous conditions, while she moans that she’s exhausted while Lee unnecessarily fannies about offshore a fortnight a month. She doesn’t think of those struggling to conceive, while she incessantly complains about any/all of her children.

So PLEASE can one of the Meldrum sheep explain WHY the duck I should have one ounce of empathy for her?
