Our Tiny Tribe

She is a single mum though? Maybe it’s a technicality but I think of mum’s having no involvement from the other parent as solo parenting.

I really like Ebony but I don’t give her a pass for putting the kids online. Years ago David said they wouldn’t be online once they started school. Sadly that’s gone out the window. I do not believe that children should have their childhoods online at all, it’s complete invasion of privacy. . Child actors/models are protected more. They are acting or selling a product. These kids have every bit of their privacy sold to strangers. It was quite shocking when Daisy suddenly realised she was on YT in a recent vlog, one of Daisy’s school friend told her she watched Daisy! Ebony thought it was funny.

It was insane to me Ebony never made the kids aware the whole world could watch them. Kids can't consent, but you think you would at least talk about it as they got older so they were aware and when teaching them about "stranger danger."

I guess the podcast must have gone back to fortnightly. I was hoping they would do more than one a week tbh. It's hilarious

They only ever hang out alone don’t they.. but I guess not super uncommon to have separate sets of friends who don’t know each other. I certainly do, mum friends, old school friends, work friends etc.. the difference being, Ebony doesn’t seem to have any other proper friends.. which I find kinda sad. I don’t have huge numbers of mates but I made a big effort to find friends with kids my age & I count those few people as my best mates these days. It’s nice to have friends who have the same ‘needs’ as you. Ie, have kids to consider when planning a day out, a night out .. who don’t blink when you have to cancel cos your kids sick etc etc. Ebony doesn’t work either, so no work colleagues to buddy up with either..

It’s like the atma hoodies were so expensive I think £30 per hoodie.

Could it be that the quality is better then Gymshark? But considering her audience/followers are young people I don’t think they would be able to afford it’s a shame really as she put so much focus and attention onto it. But at some point you got to be realistic about what dreams are attainable and what isn’t and she’s tried so many times what with atma, our tiny tribe clothing. I do wonder where all the money to invest comes from? + she has personal training, boxing, gym, holidays, home transformations, kids needs etc. especially with david being out of work

 

[Bol85]

No idea - what you talking about?!

Must be kinda tough for Ebony seeing him on social media loved up again so soon. I know she’s said she’s dating but she’s clearly not jumped straight into another serious relationship and she’s keeping her dating life private for now at least.. at least she does seem genuinely happy these days & she’s managed to make friends and have a support system locally. She never seemed to have any friends with David bar one from childhood..

 

[Bol85]

Ugh. I did think she’d do better than this with the kids. I was very critical of David & his new partner playing mum & dad within a month. I thought it might have an impact on Ebony as well.

Here’s hoping they currently think he’s a friend. Even then, how long has she known this guy? Like a couple months?! He seems great & I hope it’s a great relationship for them both but even in friendship terms, it’s very early on!

 

[Aynonmus1234]

So strange how he is all of a sudden ok with being posted on social media…their story last night posting that they are staying at that expensive hotel eating oysters lol

 

[Bol85]

I often wonder how her other bestie Lucie feels about it all. She was always her bestie. All the trips & days out Ebony went on without David were with Lucie. She got to go on the influencer trips. Suddenly, it’s now all Jess. Obviously, totally normal to have several close friends but she’s deffo very attached to Jess right now.

I think they are legit friends but I also think this attachment is Ebony trying to fill the David shaped hole in her life. I guess it’s a pretty common breakup reaction to be fair.

 

[rainymorningreading]

100% agree with you!!

Thank you!! I hesitated posting it because people can go off on here… I’ve filled Ebony since her YouTube singing videos era so this isn’t a post of hatred!

 

[Bol85]

She took him & his kids to visit her mum last weekend .. so that would be quite sudden! Although they got together very suddenly!

They live quite far away from each other & both seem to have their kids on similar weekends, which must be difficult. He can’t drag his kids to Wokingham every weekend & hers to his..

 

[ellyjelly2]

Oh I didn’t see she’d lost her job! Poor her

I think it was on a temp basis or short contract, hopefully they get more work and re employ her as it sounds like it worked really well.

 

[Bol85]

Has he? I follow David & he just posts extremely reflective posts on the mind, mental health, weird retreats he goes on.. his job basically. I’ve not seen much about his personal life?

I do feel sorry for her in terms of their relationship. No matter what went down, your relationship breaking down in your late 20’s with two kids involved is really rough. The idea of not spending half my week with my kids is not one I want to entertain. Them having a part of life I have nothing to do with would kill me. Plus, dating & finding a new love is so much harder with kids I’m sure..

 

[gossipgirlxxo]

If David’s partner did that and put mumlife I wonder how Ebony would feel?

Tbf I think she did? Wasn’t there a picture of their shoes or something with a similar caption?

 

[queenpee21]

I wonder if this was during the time they lived separate for 6 months? To help him get sober?

 

[ellyjelly2]

I def agree on the David thing but I imagine they are an exhausting matching pair. David always seemed to have his MH battles & got deep into therapy to the point of extreme in my opinion. I’m a big believer in therapy but when he chatted on about walking up & down the same 20 steps for over 2 hours, it’s getting a bit silly. I do understand that MH can be all encompassing but when it also becomes your entire personality online, I just don’t see how you are helping yourself in anyway. It just becomes a bit preachy & annoying.

I recon Ebony is living a much healthier life than he is. She has invested in her friendships, is making the most of opportunities coming her way, has got herself a normal job, does lots of sports to keep mentally & physically fit. He’s jumped straight into another serious relationship with someone who seems to have as many issues as he does. They must be the most intense couple imaginable ‍

Oh yeah agree! Ebony seems so happy.

 

[Bol85]

I mean, I’m in into fitness but it doesn’t mean I should launch a gym wear brand! Millions of people go to the gym every week, it’s not niche. Ebony seems keen & is clearly quite fit & strong but it’s not her brand. We just see random clips of her at the gym from time to time. I understand someone like Gemma Atkinson releasing gym wear. Her thing online is mostly fitness & she is bonkers fit & strong. Ebony could tap into that if she wanted but so far, it’s just not really her thing. When I think of Ebony, I think mum, oversized hoodies, Zara kids clothes & DIY.

Posted on his tiktok stories this morning

Maybe Ebony shit his bed? she did say she didn’t tell him about her problems (I wonder what this is actually about because I can’t see Ebony doing anything bad like cheating etc)

 

[gossipgirlxxo]

I think I’m gonna have to unfollow her soon, she’s become soo unrelatable

 

[Sazza25]

Still think that it must be a killer that your relationship broke down because your partner didn’t want to be on social media, then immediately got into a relationship with someone who plasters their life on social media more than you do.

I hope Ebony is okay, David always seemed like a bit of a wet wipe and she deserves so much better!

Agree, I really like ebony and think she will be okay!
