Justifying hooking up with a 25 year old when you're 15 because you're 'way beyond my years'. I dunno about that! She still seems incredibly immature to me, and everything she does is a humble brag. She's like a child trying to play grownup.

Agreed! What 15 year old doesn't think they're mature beyond their years!? All or most teenagers have a sense of exaggerated self importance.
I don't think she needs to justify her relationship, I think he does. What on earth does a 25 year old, male or female, want with a 15/16 year old?!?! Ugh.

She’s going to an ‘Easter boot camp’ this morning....but just so she can sit in the sun. You know....for a change 🙄

To be fair, I think most of the holidays are paid for by themselves although she is guilty of saying "thanks to such and such a place for having us" if it's been a free stay. That's definitely not going to cut it any more with the new CMA rules out this week. What do you make of this current trip to California? She seems to be trying to portray this image that they're sort of "living" out there for a month rather than (god forbid) being on holiday with the rest of the tourists. It all seems a bit self indulgent, just taking yourself off to hang out in California for a month because you can't face January in Britain. I will say, I felt for her having the scare with the baby and having to go to hospital while out there. I think she tried to play it cool but I bet that was really worrying.

How do we find out about the new CMA rules???

These were new guidelines issued in January 2019, but the consumer rules underpinning the guidelines were not new, it is just that few influencers were following them.

www.gov.uk

Social media endorsements: guidance for content creators

www.gov.uk www.gov.uk

This followed on from an influencer guide issued in September 2018 which was largely ignored by the influencer industry (hence the CMA investigation and release in January).

New guidance launched for social influencers

www.asa.org.uk www.asa.org.uk

The consumer rules were pretty easy to find and understand if you looked for them before the Sept and Jan releases.

She’s one of the most boring people on Instagram. Her comments about her husband’s wages on Twitter a few yrs ago shocked me, she’s disgusting

Thank goodness she has been sent some more free baby clothes 🙄🙄 Also amused by her comment there’s still another day of the weekend to enjoy. Like Tuesday will be any different for her!!

I know. I’m SO disappointed by this. Scandiborn is one of my favourite websites and I can’t believe they’ve jumped on the gifted bandwagon. I’m so bored of no one paying for anything anymore 😂😏

I probably will which is a shame. I just wish brands were reading this site and seeing how fed up we are of everything being #gifted (or in this case *gifted - very sneaky)
My friend is a small business owner and feels the pressure to gift to influencers like her competitors, but I’ve shown her this site and she’s holding firm! I hope the tide turns soon 🤞🏻

This. I can’t honestly understand why in this day it is normal for people to get so much for free when it’s not appreciated or needed!

Why not contact them, point them in the direction of this forum, and suggest that they may actually lose sales by doing this kind of thing?
