Rachel Gorry #5

[Cupcake queenie]

See I'm in 2 minds about the whole Christmas decorations stuff. I love Christmas and have told my family before that if I die before them, especially when the kids are young, I want the house decorated. And if I die around Christmas time then leave them all up. But i doubt very much they would be replacing all the things I have bought throughout the years, they have memories attached. Nor would they put it all over the gram

I dont agree, my only child died 5 years ago, we didnt decorate for the first four years after...we couldnt face it, we just ignored christmas as it was our childs favourite time of the year! Last year we decided to decorate to honor him, and REALLY, we know thats what he would want us to do....BUT, i couldnt use the decorations we always had, the memories of them and christmases past would have KILLED me...we bought all new, and have just taken them down again today! I will always keep our old decorations, but am not strong enough to see them again yet, maybe in years to come... And i certainly dont post about such things on the gram, cry and wail into my phone for all to see, some things should be kept private in my opinion

I feel sorry for Daniel that he was married to someone who never thought for one minute how it must feel to be told at 29 years of age and a father of three kids, that you’re going to die. From the outset, Rachel has placed herself as the victim in Daniel’s story. She is a victim yes but she is not the victim, Daniel is. She has made every single thing that happened to him about herself. She is so desperate to be seen as inspirational and strong that she has placed herself front and centre of Daniel’s tragedy. Yes losing your husband at 29 is horrendous but she is not the one who lost her children or her life. Daniel is the one who died but ultimately it’s Rachel who wants to be seen as the victim and it’s Rachel who wants to be seen as the inspiration. She’s no more inspirational than the millions of other people who have to live with the burden of tragic circumstances, but do so quietly and alone without needing to be told daily how amazing they are. Yes she now has to rear three kids alone but she also has a lot of support, financial and physical that other people going through her situation and worse do not have. She has placed herself as a martyr and she truly thinks she is the only one who has experienced tragedy. I cannot believe she never once thought about how Daniel might have felt hearing that he is going to die a young man. That is self obsession on another level.

Daniel is the inspiration. He was a young man who built his family a home after being told you won’t see them grow up in it. He carried on and was strong until the bitter end. He seemed to have done a lot for his family and thought of every milestone they might need to hear from him and wrote them letters. He was inspiring, strong and selfless in the face of death despite being so young and losing out on so much. The poor guy.

“The most wonderful time of the year” And her sitting there saying she loves it ?! I mean I don’t begrudge anyone happiness , not at all , but I don’t really understand how she can say that considering it’s the first Christmas without her husband. It’s very strange , off the planet strange

I totally agree! I lost my only child 5 years ago in a horrific crash, he died, i survived.... i literally couldnt walk from the bed to the sofa before being totally exhausted for the first year... could hardly wash, was exhausted again year two i climbed the walls in physical pain every night re living my childs last moments, and wishing i had died too....our first 4 chrismases were hell, my child LOVED christmas, we literally couldnt bare to decorate, or do anything with family we had previously done, the pain was soooo bad! We always had a tree with lights, and decorations on his grave, and spend every midnight on new years eve with him at the grave Last Christmas, our 5th without him, we decided to try a new way, and honor his life, and what he loved, and bought a new tree and decorations, so we didnt have all the memories that were attached to our times together.... We know he was smiling down us for being brave, and strong, but most of all we KNOW its what he would want us to do... i know everyone grieves differently, but imo the way Rachel carries on is far from normal, she acts like she hasnt a care in the world

 

[Get off my chest]

And it’s back in the wardrobe . Anyone else think she has started to look very smug in her posts , the sly grin on her, especially the Xmas tree one that screams total self adoration .

Shes loving the insta fame... big time...

Hate the clothes haul... I'll leave a swipe up here... ill leave a swipe up here.. ill leave a swipe up here...


Here rachel... swipe up on this

 

[Get off my chest]

Really getting a pain in my balls with every single blagger telling US to shop irish and local... when they dont bloody buy the stuff themselves.. they get it all for free...

 

[Surrealoneill]

I’m absolutely shocked at the decorations. After such a recent bereavement. I mean I get it there’s kids and you have to put up some decorations but I could barely pull myself together enough to get the tree up and even at that I hated looking it at last year. Not sure how I’m going to feel about this year. Celebrating Christmas without loved ones is difficult and I don’t understand how she can get in the spirit of it all in such extreme fashion mid November! I managed it a week before Christmas Day last year and had it down again on January 1st. Just couldn’t cope with it. She has a heart of stone for sure

 

[Surrealoneill]

Her butchering of the English language is another level. “All is you need to do is” Imagine reading her CV

Grabby Gorry #6 Swinging me chain so yiz all feel me pain

I wouldn’t change places for the world and I’m sure that she loved her husband and misses them terribly. But I worry for the example that is being set for her children. They will think that everything has to be photographed or videod or it didn’t happen or has no value. Also, they will expect things to be given to them for free just because their surname is Gorry. They will have a rude awakening in the real world. What if one of them grows up to be terribly private. She can’t go back in time and remove screenshots of her in the bath from some perverts phone, or pictures or her underwear in the drawer; or the image of the youngest in a very private grief moment, smelling her uncle and thinking of her dad.
I have a friend who’s husband is sadly dying; leaving her with 3 children who are a bit older than Rachel’s. She stayed at home with them. She’s going to have to get a job, go out in the world and just make it work, she’ll have 3 for college soon so has no choice.
Not being harsh but public figure. All she did was get pregnant young, marry young and tragically lose a husband. She has no charm; no education, she mangles the English language. If she’s a public figure for being widowed, then we didn’t realise it but we all had a famous person in our midst be it an aunt or a grandmother who was widowed young. It happens sadly.....You may get thousands worth of free clothes, free food, free decorations.... sadly you can’t buy class or breeding.

I’m thinking the reason she didn’t post up a story or pics of these decorations is because there might be some collab tomorrow with something to do with Christmas or decorations or the tree and that’s why she’s so quiet today , getting it all ready . I know she said her children wanted to put the decorations up , but I’m wondering what her reason is for not putting a pic up to show us all , considering she shows us what they eat for breakfast and everything else ! I can just hear her “Hello everyone .... yiz all were sendin me messages askin me to show yiz the Christmas decorations, well I said I’d wait for today because I’m so delighhhhed to tell yiz all tha I’m workin with an amazin company dis Christmas ( insert company ) , I picked up dis.... and the next I picked up is this gorgeousssss and I am obsessedddddd wih dis .... look ah tha ! I’ll leave the swipe up here ! An I have a discount code for yiz all”

I would assume anyone widowed would avoid their first Xmas in so far as possible, do the necessary for the kids.... flogging Xmas candles is it really necessary

This is our first Christmas without my husband, I can't bare the thought of celebrating or trying to but I will manage a tree for my children that's about it.. This woman infuriates me is there nothing she won't do for money.. The garland who in their right mind would give a damn about a garland after just burying the love of their life? Like is she for real? A garland wtf?! Having her 10 year old excited to talk to compete strangers?! Like wtf? And the child seems genuinely excited.. Are social services or Daniels family not stepping in over this? It just goes to show she has fame and money drilled into her kids that's what they are excited about... It makes me very uncomfortable. Regarding play therapy my eldest goes once a week in the strictest of confidence so he can get the most of it with his therapist and open up.. Only the family and his teacher knows this yet the great Rachel tells her followers about these kids getting help... I'm baffled how she is getting away with exploiting her kids for fame and money and the sickest thing about it is the kids seem excited to chat to strangers when they should be getting help from their mummy and actual support. Rachel if your reading this will you STOP!!!!! For your kids sake you have exploited them enough..

I hope the likes of Rachel and Shannon etc with all their go fund me money are ashamed of themselves the nasty vile pricks ! That beautiful little girl who I wouldn’t begrudge keeping it all for herself , kept only what she needed. Rachel gorry is free to work and still accepts money from people . That little girls life is changed forever

Wonder how much she donated ?

 

[Heidi77]

I never heard of Kieran Corrigan before. Just went for a look. Kinda surprised he has a female spouse.

 

[Teenytot]

Oh my god I can’t cope with this and Rosie C for crying about it. I recently found 4 lumps was at st James and got the all clear yesterday myself didn’t tell a single person and I’m a single mam, was I worried yes but I didn’t go looking for attention of a bunch of strangers

 

[Jennymac]

I know they dont bloody spend a penny , if they did shop local they would die at the price of some of the stuff. Like come on who is going to buy a candle for 30 euro when so many are struggling to put food on the table at the minute

 

[Heidi77]

I messaged her, suggested she get a job on QVC.

I’m fairness she’s probably just doing it for her kids sake....think we all need a bit of cheering up so maybe that’s her thinking

 

[Surrealoneill]

Grabby gorry must be seething inside. Remember all the #latelate #rte and she begging her followers to share to get her on the late late? Her husband had not long passed and she was mad for getting on the late late with Ryan. She must be raging she didn’t get the call up for last night and even more raging at brave Saoirse for highlighting further how greedy and uncharitable she is. She no doubt thought to herself “damn now, if I’d played the grief porn and sympathy card with a little more class I could be jetting off on my freebie holiday to Disney world”
She’ll be on tomorrow hashtagging #aerlingus and spouting more fiction down the phone about how it was “always Daniels dream to take the kids to Disney world and it would mean the absolute world to me if yez could share and help get us there”
Do yourself a favour Rachel and have a day off.

'Your really ticklish because you've a great smile/laugh'

Who are these crazy people that send in this stuff

 

[Foggy]

Sorry, a bit off topic but I am just disappointed. I just can't get over all the messages she has never replied to from really genuine people.
I too sent a big, thoughtful message when she was buying all the school supplies end of August. I sent the message as a primary teacher who has had kids in my class who have lost a parent. I wanted to reassure her etc. I also shared personal stories in the message.
How can she say she goes through all the messages? It is just untrue. Like, has anyone here recieved a reply from her?
Other instagrammers are very good about replying.
