Has she not had or still has her Mum staying with her?! Doing pretty well compared to lots who haven’t seen their family. I know it’s not a competition but find it hard to feel sympathy with them when they have a very comfortable life. I enjoy the podcast but was a bit annoyed when listening to her moan that as tours had been cancelled they couldn’t move to a bigger house. Shame having to stay put and purchase a motor home instead!! 
A comfortable life has nothing to do with how somebody copes with it. You can have all the money in the world and struggle mentally. You can struggle with not being able to socialise normally, with not having the normality of visiting family members like you usually would (although she may have her mum there, that’s not the only relative she has.) She can struggle with the fact that they may have planned to move house and that’s not possible now because of the fact their tours aren’t happening.Has she not had or still has her Mum staying with her?!

I can appreciate all of that I just think that people with a high following or influencer should perhaps read the room and acknowledge the privileges they have. We are all entitled to have the feeling we have but also to realise most people listening/following Rosie aren’t in as fortunate a position as they are.
You absolutely can. I have massively struggled despite knowing I am in a more fortunate position than many and that many are in a more fortunate position than me. That having said, i think especially with things like moaning about moving to a bigger house, know your audience, lots of people with have lost homes, businesses etc. We all suffer from first world problems. Sometimes it’s best to not vocalise them or at least not with 1000’s of people.
Being privileged doesn’t mean she isn’t entitled to admit to struggling with a difficult situation. People may not be as fortunate as Rosie, however that doesn’t make how she feels inadequate nor mean that she isn’t entitled to voice that.
I think maybe you are in the wrong thread? Moaning about not getting a bigger house right now is incredibly distasteful, actually at any time it is. It is ok for her to struggle. And be sad about what she’s missed. She has a husband and friends she can voice this to.
I probs should be in the rave thread but it’s pretty pointless to discuss things posted on this thread on my own over there
nobody really knows. It happens on some threads and not others, but if you have a view that goes against the majority apparently you belong on a rave thread 
it's her social media she's on venting about it though so it is partly to her friends shes saying all this to.I get that not getting a new house isn't the end of the world but she could just be sad because she probably wanted to be settled before the new baby but now she can't and she's on her Instagram and podcast talking about it. yes lots of people find her annoying, ie why this thread exists but lots of people find it relatable whe she talks about struggling with this and I guess I just think when the whole world is in such a crappy situation right now we shouldn't have to have a competition of sadness
As far as I know I think open debate is allowed but it’s expected that most people will present observations and critical opinions and if you wanted to discuss or share positive opinions head to the rave thread? That’s my understanding but not studied the guidance.
It is not a competition at all no you are right. And that is not the point I am making. You can discuss struggling and the lockdown part not seeing friends etc I can completely relate to. But moaning about material things, I am sorry it’s not for social media right now. She’s a grown woman. Act like it.
Honestly god knows. If you moan of a rave thread you will immediately be shot down with a thousand daggers.. I like a debate and a balanced opinion. And I also like being free to discuss someone in a less friendly manner
I agree. My husband got made redundant mid Covid and things have been tricky. I’m sorry if it makes me heartless but it’s hard to watch a celeb whinge that they can’t upsize to a bigger house when you’re not sure if you’re going to lose your own. We were lucky and have a support network, a lot of people don’t. She has personal friends she could vent to, she uses Insta for business, she should be more sensitive.
Absolutely agree, if she was voicing her worry about not being able to pay the gas bill, or put food on the table I’d want to listen and help...but no she’s mosning about not being able to move from her huge house to an even bigger one...it’s pathetic, entitled and obnoxious!
This is my point. Thank goodness you have a good support unit. Even people who haven’t lost their job are well aware it’s not out of the question.
She can’t be oh I’m working class roots Rosie then sit moaning from her comfy warm house.
I think we have all missed things this year. I love a holiday and have missed travel . I also haven’t seen my boyfriend since feb. I’m still aware I’m luckier than a lot of people right now.
I don’t think it is a competition of sadness, I think she’s being tone deaf and selfish. She’s on a platform to thousands in a work capacity. She’s not talking to her close mates, she has a beautiful home to live in and she’s throwing her toys out the pram that she can’t have a bigger one. Its not shown her in a good light IMO.
I’m sorry, that must be really rough. Having to keep
my distance from family members has been the worst bit for me so I can’t imagine how you must be feeling. Hope you get to see each other soon!
Are they moving? Or looking to move? What’s all this talk about wanting a bigger home? I must’ve missed something.
I feel like their house is a pretty decent size!
Although nothing wrong with moving up the property ladder but I do agree it’s in bad taste on a platform the size of Rosies at this moment in time.

She got pregnant in lockdown so this was always a possibility (no criticism, I got pregnant in lockdown too)
I’m not making it a competition (whoever said that) but time and again Rosie fails to read the room and just moans moans moans constantly about her own life. If she balanced it out with some more positive stuff it would be more bearable but she whinges every single day.
It was talked about on the podcast (think I’m about two behind) they were both venting and Rosie was talking about how they couldn’t move as tours had been postponed / cancelled. I felt the tone was off and they seem to forget they had still been able to buy a motor home and still already lived in a massive house. Of course everyone has worries and a right to be upset when things don’t happen but I don’t think we always have to vent that in public. If you were talking to a friend who had just had their house repossessed you might keep to yourself that you were disappointed you couldn’t upsize etc Just being mindful really
I still enjoy the podcast but do find them both very entitled which in the current climate does grate.
