I don’t believe she does that walk everyday lol, this is the first she’s ever mentioned it
LOL I’ve come on to say exactly this. If she did that every morning I’m sure it would be all over Instagram.
Hehe I carry crossiants in my hood. Shut up.
The way she came in and took her coat and shoes off and left them on the floor. Like she had just come in. You had to set your camera up to film yourself doing that hun!

To be fair to her, I am preparing to have a breast reduction later this year and the consultant told me I would be in a lot of pain for a few days and would have to have at least 2 weeks off work, with normal activity resuming around 6 weeks later. I specifically asked about washing and brushing my hair and he said for the first few days it would be pretty impossible to do so and I should ask someone to do it for me.

The inconsistencies though - can’t walk for more than 3 minutes, but can package lots of clothes up 🙄
I want to like her again, I always used to but she’s become insufferable recently. I’m also 🤨 at her selling items given to her by companies like Gymshark. It puts me off Gymshark as well, I'm honest.
There are a lot of reasons to be put off Gymshark. Gymshark is similar to missguided in that they are brands founded by privileged young men, use a largely female garment production workforce and have made their fortunes by carefully promoting their products via influencers and online.

gymshark’s sustainability is woeful. Even the beginning of the brand focused on dropshiping (a pretty exploitive practice anyway). the sustainability section of the website focuses on environmental impact (no mention of humanitarian impact), and has very flimsy language and zero real impactful commitments.

let’s not even go into missguided.

both brands are awful IMO, they just serve to make men rich at the expense of women. But as long as Nelly can take a selfie in her #gifted bras, what does it matter, right? Nelly helps them shill their products and as such, is part of the problem. Helena/Nelly has no issue with promoting exploitative companies and making money from them, while simultaneously claiming to promote female inclusively and empowerment. If you are struggling to like her again, that’s a good a reason as any to struggle.

Second: I have a real issue with her preaching body positivity. Obviously I’m not disputing any issues she has within herself, that’s her jam and not for me to comment on. BUT I feel she does not ever acknowledge the privileges she has, it’s all well and good being ‘body positive’ when you have a body that is, generally speaking, a body that people are positive about and accepting of.
Helena/Nelly has a perfectly beautiful, healthy, normal body. It’s depressing that it’s hailed as “brave” to put herself out here with her body when it’s perfectly lovely? How depressing that women are disparaged for their bodies to that extent? And the sad thing is, she has gotten a lot of nasty comments at her body in the past too - so in some ways I guess it is kinda brave to put herself so out there. Why is a normal sized woman, posting her body, so triggering to these people?

It’s also depressing that Helena/Nelly isn’t actually all that unique or innovative in her content. Women are screaming for normal women and normal bodies like Helena’s to be represented, so that even though nothing on her gram is special or unique she still manages to accrue about 400K followers. The bar is that low that all she has to do is wear some bikinis and cheap bras and women rush to her.

I’ve legit lost count of the amount of times I’ve seen her post that a reel was ‘inspired’ by another influencer’s post. For a content creator she doesn’t create much original content

typed in her name to see if she was on tattle… yep. My Mum had a mastectomy the same day Nelly went in and she’s walking around fine, she’s a trooper! My Mum is nearly nearly 60. Nellys walking stories have made me unfollow she’s literally screaming for attention. It’s a no from me!

iM So SeLf CoNsCioUs sorry she literally hypes herself up so much on social media and gets off on people raving over her and telling her how amazing and beautiful she is, how can you be self conscious and be comfortable being this obsessed with yourself and posing like every vain self-obsessed influencer (most of the time with no clothes on)????

I totally agree. She thinks she’s gods gift, no one who’s self conscious would talk about themselves like that. When she does her make up and calls herself cute. Fuck off. Wish this thread was more active because she’s a pain in the arse 😂

I just skimmed through her most recent vlog and was actually shuddering at how rough she's being with her boobs. Pulling her surgical bra up to show the scars on camera, touching the wounds with her bare fingers 🤮 it looked like the skin could come apart at any time from how she was pulling her boobs up to show the scars 🤮

She also did a lingerie try-on and added that her doctor said "under no circumstances should you wear an underwired bra for any length of time" while wearing a tight underwired bra... I just think from her having such an awful experience with the last surgery healing incorrectly, surely she should be more careful this time?!

I feel a bit sorry for B. His teammates must tease him rotten, imagine your girlfriend parading in her unders every five minutes on a publicly accessible page!

not to mention posting you looking creepy when you were probably just going about your business?!

I unfollowed her today, I’m no prude and have no issue with sex toys but the whole thing just feels so forced and like she’s suddenly trying to turn herself into a sex guru. I also don’t like to be told “you need to learn, kids” or whatever she said. I found it really patronising and feel like she’s got her knickers in a twist because she lost followers and probably thought she’d gain a shit ton more

Apparently she’s dreamed of working with them for years…yeah sure 🥱
Considering it's an Australian company that only started up in 2018, I'm finding that hard to believe 🙄 also if it's so great, why didn't she show it before being paid to show it? 🤔

Well I mean sorry but that’s life isn’t it? Some people save up for years to renovate, it’s not always a quick fix and tbh people have a right to do whatever the hell they like to their homes. If they work, have a job and save up then why not! It’s nice to see people doing well in life no one likes a bitter bitch just because someone’s family can’t afford to get their kitchen fixed it’s not really the problem or fault of the ones who can afford it🤷🏽‍♀️
I’m not a bitter bitch 😂 I just think she can be quite braggy sometimes.

Aren’t hip dips just muffin tops without actually wearing jeans?!
They look like muffin tops but Nelly is right about them - they are caused when you have a gap between your hip bones and femurs, you can’t really get rid of them and even slim women without much body fat can have them (source: me, I have them).

She’s absolutely cringe. So glad I’ve found a thread on her and I’m not alone😂
Did anyone see her rubbing her arse on B the other night on her stories🤢 I just can’t imagine those two at it they have no sexual chemistry at all!

It makes me irrationally angry when she rates every single one of her bakes 10/10. Babe its a burnt flapjack with some chocolate its not a 10.
Helena baking a brownie using a recipe from BBC Good Foods- OMG Angels this tastes DIVINE, it’s the Best most SURREAL thing I have ever eaten you HAVE to try this, I can’t BELIEVE how good this is. I’ve OUTDONE myself.

Helena with a misguided package - omg ANGELS this is the Softest most FLATTERING piece of clothing I have EVER WORN. It’s just STUNNING you MUST buy it via my affiliated link, it is simply INCREDIBLE

Helena with a skincare product she’s been gifted from Beauty Bay - Angels I am SO excited to tell you about this product it is SUCH an amazing fabulous product, I feel UNREAL. This is the best product that EXISTS. I have never come across ANYTHING so AMAZING in my ENTIRE LIFE.

BORE OFF HELENA YOU GIANT BULLSHITTER!

I’ve just come on here to comment on the setting her camera up to film herself “waking up” omg stop!!!!! You would have had to get out of bed to set the camera up, then get back in and pretend to wake up! Just STOP IT!!!! I really need to unfollow her, but I can’t, I’m just so mesmerised at how cringe and fake her content is.
