R seems to think that their relationship is aspirational - it’s not. It appears to be obsessive, manipulative, dependant, unhealthy af and disrespectful on her part.

Not to mention all those hints of coercion, the pic of his hand on her throat etc

I’m still playing catch up so apologies if I get some of this wrong but:
R is a patron of Trevi House who specialise in helping victims of substance abuse and one of R’s BFF’s was arrested and jailed for drug smuggling abroad......? Is that right?!
I wonder if her publishers are aware of all these questions that aren’t getting answered.
I do think that Josh is unaware of a lot of what goes on - or becomes aware too late ie after it’s been posted. He must be a laughing stock at work after posts like the shaving one the other day! I know that when R was stating all the awful comments made about her that she said she really hoped people’s children weren’t reading them. To be honest I really hoped people’s children weren’t reading about her shaving antics - particularly school friends of her own children 😳
Finally - where has J’s sister gone? Didn’t she help run the page and get tagged in all sorts or am I out of date?

I’m sorry but stuck on baby Buddha hands and feet are the most amazing thing ever. I was told with one of mine and after many many scans I would have a 10lb baby. She came out 7.4 🤔 I’m not sure they are allways accurate.
I had my baby in Jan, was told she was tiny 11 days before I had her, under 6lbs and she came out 8lbs 5oz. I've spoken to so many people who say the growth scans aren't accurate.

Obviously just judging this based on what is shown on her social media, but they just seemed so much happier before they got married and their lifestyle changed significantly. Greed and deception seems to have changed things for the worse.

Though I guess they hadn’t been together that long at that stage. Anyone know at what point in their relationship she got the two boys names tattooed into her baring in mind her & J got together in early 2014?

Lets look at other basic things that are going on in their lives

1) if they rent they dont have much security in private rental landlord can give 2months notice and many will not accept pets.
2) 6th child on way is more expense and juggling not to mention space.
Sometimes older siblings dont always react great to new siblings.
3) i assume josh no longer has a well paid secure job with the police or he would not be allowed to be on social media like he does.
4) its been said in past they not exactly popular in thier local community.
5) they scared and anxious the truth will out! Her sending people here has backfired.
Her engagement is low.
Paypals and go fund mes are now shut reducing money coming in.
6) this social media influencer bubble is bursting and its getting harder to make the same money and get the deals in whats a saturated market.

Personally, I think she knows exactly what she’s doing. Yes, there are doubtless underlying issues but I think (and I don’t work in mental health or anything so this is just my opinion) that she is in control enough to be accountable for her actions regardless of any issues she may have. She has a large house, five children virtually full time, countless pets, she can drive, she (according to herself) holds down a full time job, she spends a lot of time and effort on her appearance, she is able to hold a coherent conversation both in person and on paper. She’s a functioning adult and I don’t believe there is any excuse for her behaviour.

I feel more and more that she is calculating, that PTWM as a business was meticulously pre-planned and that she effectively grooms people. I think she used domestic abuse as a theme to set up her brand and that she now makes a lot of money from it.

A lot of us had difficult childhoods and have turbulent relationships with our parents. That doesn’t give us free reign to duck other people over because we’re damaged.
I love this! You are so right.

I believe J is in way too deep and isn't happy at all - you can just see it in his face. He hates being filmed, if he's talking and he notices the phone on him, his whole persona changes!

He's stuck in this tit I bet she's got stuff on him to make him stay (along with his new baby)

All speculation of course and my own opinion 😏

Very true, I do too often forget that there are so many different types of mental health condition and that we are all unique therefore they affect us all differently.

If there is a mental health aspect to this, would that not make Josh more culpable? Assuming he’s at least aware of her behaviour? I don’t know how much he knows about her online life, the articles she’s written or interviews she’s done and how far from the truth they are but he seems to be with her a lot and by their own admission they are very close and spend as much time together as possible. It seems unlikely therefore that he is unaware of her behaviour and if that’s the case then why is he not putting a stop to it? Getting her help or whatever. You’d think it would be in his best interests considering his career.
Exactly this 👏
Josh has to know about her past life, he knows the lies and deceit that she is living, as a PC this sickens me as he should be so far thinking the opposite to what she is doing, he should be as angry as us Tattlers. But it seems he is aiding her behavior.

I don't believe she has mental health issues, it's all a crock to enable her to do what she has been doing. It's all so very complicated, that it would of taken alot of thought to put together her life of lies and fraud.

I believe she has many many issues, she's a narcissist etc. But also her and Josh are very clever and cunning.
Their whole life is a con, they both know just what they are doing.

Maybe it’s the heat 🥵 but for some reason I am SO BLOODY FURIOUS about this situation this morning. I am a nurse, and my colleagues and I work exhausting 14 hour shifts looking after people who need our help. There is nothing glamorous about it. We don’t boast about it or want gushing praise and our wages are tit. I am in huge debt just trying to pay my bills, along with many of my workmates. Lots of my colleagues work hours of overtime to support family who live in poorer countries. We don’t lie, steal or get #gifted free holidays. And usually that is absolutely fine with me. Normal life. But today I just CANNOT understand how Rachel can get away with stealing from, and lying to people (many of whom have mental, emotional and financial difficulties or are in real danger in a DA relationship) who think she is the bees 🐝 knees? And she actually thinks that she is entitled to this gushing praise. She is not helping anyone other than herself, is she? And probably a few dishonest mates. These poor desperate women who message her and have to wait months to be told ‘god so sorry babezz 💕’ And they STILL think she’s amazing but probably think that they are not worthy of her time 😡 God I am RAGING at the unfairness. Why can’t she be stopped? She is married to a police officer who seems to have no morals. How is this okay? Why are local people so scared of her? Really sorry for this rant (won’t be offended if it’s deleted!) but we are blocked and deleted if we dare to even mildly disagree with R - or ANY of these mummy vloggers who I used to admire so much. I am SO cross and disillusioned with it all ☹ What can we do?

I was told I’d have a big baby, then regular sized, then measured big, then told when delivering they thought he would be about 7lb - 9lb 14oz baby later!! 🙈 When j had my daughter, I just said ‘let’s assume she’ll be big shall we’, then she was 8lb but born at 37wk so she’d have been a 9lb-er by the time I’d have had her 😂

Some people I'm sorry are just rotten! Bit personal here, but my bother in law commited suicide. His wife was having an affair, he didnt want to believe people who knew. He later went on to overdose and survived. She vehemently denied it. People were just out to cause trouble apparently! Turning against his family refusing to let them visit in hospital because it was their fault!. Some months later she left him for this other man, taking their kids. She'd organised another house on the quiet.. He was starting to accept she'd gone ( although heartbroken) when she made allegations he wasn't fit to see those kids! Police got involved. He was a shadow of his former self. A letter arrived weeks later to say there was no evidence and police dropped the case. It arrived on his birthday! Too late he had suceeded in his next suicide attempt. She went on to marry this man, change those kids names to his and no-one sees them! She has done lots of other things aside from this. I believe she is just heartless and calculating! I believe people like her exist to. Sorry for the essayx

And has the outright cheek that she is entitled to the 'donations' so she can dedicate her time to continue!

I just wanted to share this because sometimes people are just bad! Mental health is crippling (I know) but it is not a free ticket to ruin and destroy lives! What's J excuse? Isn't he part if all this too?

I completely agree, whilst some people have mental health issues and are very unwell, sometimes people are just arseholes. Not everything has to be labelled.

Unless it's labelling her with all the vowels an absolute bellend because then I'm happy to label.

If Josh filmed Rachellie cleaning up or cooking (both of which are highly unlikely to actually happen) and laughed and said good girl or filmed her telling the kids off and then belittled and laughed at her or filmed her sleeping in her underwear and posted it on SM would the crew think that was acceptable? He'd he getting called an abuser and everyone would be telling her to leave him.

I'm starting to despise this woman so much. She's an absolute disgrace.

But she'll have a giggly, vacuous, helpless response... the Male equivalent being a matey slap on the back and a "cant you take a joke?"

So if she really does help people escape DV, isn't she putting herself and children at risk being so vocal about it? Wouldn't take a perpetrator of such violence much to find her if they thought she'd been involved helping their partner. Or am I wrong?
