Todays stories where she lists activities to do in lockdown. Her current one says 'daily walks' as one of the ideas in the list but I swear she posted an identical one earlier that said 'daily walks x2'. Shes edited it, but what a strange thing to amend...?

Do you think she realises it makes her claim of being too busy seem daft? If you are fitting in twice daily walks but complaining that you don't have time to rest, you're prioritising the wrong thing.
She definitely has changed it, I’d assume it’s because she’s been ignoring the lockdown rules which state outdoor exercise should be limited to once a day and she’s been called out on that.

It was her constant pushing of plant based that started to turn me off her and then when she actively started saying that you don’t need to eat meat at all and that we all need to either eat a lot less or stop eating it completely in order to save the planet that I stopped taking her seriously. Add in her total exploitation of Zachary (I have a real bugbear over these children being used and pumped in the way they are, it’s total exploitation and invasion of privacy) which I am honestly surprised at, someone as educated and well read of her ought to know the perils and the dangers of what she’s doing, but seems to care more about her own self promotion and money than she does about his safety.
All she cares about is money and attention. I
I know she only works for Rhi and isn’t Rhi, but she’s meant to be a nutrition expert. This. Is. Terrible. The angle it’s taken at, the filter, the underlying skeletal frame. These people are dangerous. Imagine being a client of them with a vulnerability to disordered eating and you see one of their staff posting like this. I accept she’s genetically slender. But this is dangerous IMO.
Exactly: slender and skeletal are just not the same. I hope she knows that we know that she edits her photos. Some old ones were real stinkers. I’m not poking fun at whatever disordered whatever that she clearly has, but I cannot accept her over-showing it off to build her confidence, fully knowing the damage it can do to others. Her and her pal rhiannon should seriously rethink their actions and ethics. I honestly would feel so uneasy if either of them opened up the door if I went to see a nutritionist. No thanks.

From yesterdays and today’s stories I’d say she’s been reading here and is rather triggered, she l literally goes through everything discussed here and comments on it. Other than her weird eating and possible ED.

Has she been seen with Alice Liveing since she had bubba? I thought they were really good friends and she would be straight around, obviously a pandemic makes that difficult but I haven't seen anything on her channel about them meeting up?
Just quoting myself as certain she looks here on the daily! She’s now posted pics of herself with Alice!

Yeah sometimes I can feel like insta mums can be a bit smug about not using formula but I am also aware that that could just be in my head as I desperately wanted to breast feed and couldn’t. I think it’s more of the way they talk about ‘the bond’ it gives them as if formula feeding mothers don’t bond with their baby when they are bottle feeding. But again they could just be how I’m perceiving it and not how it is intended.
It’s bollocks too! Don’t get me wrong, I enjoyed breastfeeding but a lot of the time, particularly in the newborn phase with the huge growth spurts, the smell of milk just made my baby really cross and agitated around me! Nature is amazing but it ain’t insta-friendly...hence the over dramatic posed pics and simpering captions. Just makes me eye-roll...

The potato shaking was very strange! She’s really going out of her way to try and prove she’s not starving herself isn’t she with all her ‘q&a’s today! She’s only so skinny because she breastfed obviously! Also she gets nervous answering baby related questions as she doesn’t want to be judged 🙄 People wouldn’t be asking these questions if she just stuck to nutrition on her page instead of turning into a mummy influencer! She can’t have it both ways, if you post your life for everyone to see then people will judge!
Also if she really is only on day 5 of weaning then he shouldn’t be having 2 meals of food like she put in her daily routine. Also giving him bitter veg first before fruit is not a new way of weaning like she says, that’s been around since at least 2015 when I weaned my first child!

This is why it is so dangerous to blur the lines between a professional industry and influencing on Instagram.

rhi definitely didn’t use to be that skinny pre baby although I remembered really enjoying her podcast with deliciously Ella and then being so disappointed that she was so tiny and fake looking. Just all fake. AndI do believe some of her podcasts have interesting content but it’s all regurgitated

You can tell there was no other point to that story, except to say, 'Look at me, I'm breastfeeding in the street!'. Recipe stuff added on as an afterthought.

I really hope all this baking content is pre filmed but I don’t think it is. And I get if you are self employed maternity leave isn’t a thing, and you need to be conscious financially but surely she doesn’t need to be doing AD content already?

I don’t know why this bothers me so much, but she just needs to take a break. Even just a month off before getting back to work, why does she need to do this immediately after giving birth? I’m not being made to feel inadequate from all her posts as they just make me cross, but there must be new mums out there seeing her perfect life, baking and cooking with seemingly no support and it must be making them feel bad

When she is doing posts on her rhitrition page she really needs to not start speaking to Zachary in the middle of it! Saying things like ‘isn’t that right zachy, you eat lots of fibre don’t you’ comes across very condescending because she is literally talking to everyone as if they are a small child. The whole point of having 2 pages is to keep them separate so she can capitilise focus on each different thing. Also she says there is no judgement in her clinic and on her page but she is really heavily pushing plant based recently even on these stories promoting a small study whereas if there was a study on something she didn’t agree with she would dismiss it as only being a small study.
It was her constant pushing of plant based that started to turn me off her and then when she actively started saying that you don’t need to eat meat at all and that we all need to either eat a lot less or stop eating it completely in order to save the planet that I stopped taking her seriously.

I’m definitely seeing that too! It looks like it has been highlighted and just placed in the photo!
Honestly, the audacity of these people. Holding themselves out to be “heathy” and knowledgable, when they clearly have serious body image issues. She looks emaciated. Pathetic comments underneath it also saying how great she looks. Scary.

Why does everything she do seem so fake? I don’t think I have seen her ever post with BIPOC people. This just screams performative posting
She is so embarrassingly fake. This staged photo is blatantly performative. You're right, I've also never once seen her mention or post anything that includes BPOC. Clearly she's bandwagon jumping (and I bet she reads on here too to see what she needs to do next).

She just wasn’t good enough I think! Obviously she can sing but there’s nothing exceptional about her. No one was going to put £££’s into launching her career when she can only sing as well as any other classically trained person and has zero personality. She thought because she was young, blond and pretty that that would be enough!
I also remember her saying that she lived on slim fast shakes back then as a singer due to the pressure of thinking she had to look a certain way and all that then so I think being a performer ultimately made her somewhat ill. 🤷‍♀️

Jeez..a gender reveal & a baby shower...just plain greedy. I’m glad I’m not her friend- I’d be ‘you can have one present when the baby is born, like normal folks’. She’s a total ball ache. Chessie & her ‘fat rolls’ can bugger off with her, Alice needs to be told not to wear those stupid Kazband, Megan can take her crystals and shove ‘em...Lucy is ok. She may stay for now. 😬
Let’s hear it for the ‘yaaasss queens’

She is so weird, saying how bizarre it is for Z to put food in his water cup and then drink it. Like no, that’s what kids do?? Experimenting, playing… being a child???

Yeah she could have, she didn’t have an easy birth (not that there ever is an ‘easy’ birth) and it must be so hard for anyone having a newborn in these times where you can’t have your family round for support. I really feel though, if she has just taken time off of Instagram to just have this time with her baby without having the need to project the image of perfection all the time she would have felt better for it. Trying to be perfect all the time just feeds the idea that you’re failing because you’re not perfect, no one is! And she’s not failing, no new mum is. Everyone is just winging it really which is why it’s really damaging to see people like her on Instagram baking and working out and making it look easy.
I agree about her page, she needs to stick to nutrition on her page and maybe have a separate account for her everyday stuff
Amen to this!!

As for Chessie babysitting - outrageous! Not just because it’s a blatant breach of lockdown rules but also because unless she’s seen Chessie before she’s basically left a newborn baby with a stranger with no prior socialisation which will be so confusing for the wee bubba!

so tired of her condescending and patronising tone, and the fake snooty accent doesn't help either.

She seems to always insinuate that no-one else, except her, can be trusted with nutrition advice, despite conveniently going back on her words (e.g. Meat reduction, yet her constant promotion of Heck Sausages is completely opposite to this, as is her clearly obvious gaunt appearance and having to broadcast any moment she has a bit of chocolate - like it's some sort of sin, and manic exercising when it comes to what she says about disordered eating). And she's overstepped the mark with health advice on many occasions, by not staying in her lane and thinking she's some sort of authority on medical matters.

She actually seems to think she's able to give medical advice and medical opinions, yet preaches about 'unqualified' people giving nutrition advice when in fact she's totally unqualified to give medical advice or opinions. Getting tired of her constant attempts at trying to be a wannabe 'z-list celeb' too and her also trying to push products to us. It's all Sell, Sell, Sell (and pushing a fake lifestyle) with her. She's clearly desperate to get a freebie holiday somewhere and sell again whilst posing and grinning like a muppet. The clown.

Stay in your lane Rhi, actually become authentic for once and don't think you're something you're not.
You are spot on, I feel like she's lost herself through trying to be someone she isn't. The constant tagging of people like Gary Barlow and Kerry Ellis like they are her best friends. She always goes on about how she's come from nothing and has made something of her life and fair play to her. But she isn't the only one who's worked multiple jobs to get ahead in life.

anyone seen Chessie Kings story this morning with a pic of baby 'Z' as newborn being held by her saying 6 months ago we met. Pretty sure that was when full on Lockdown was in in April??!!
