Pisses me right off. Some people actually have real problems and a difficult time during pregnancy/the early days. My Mum died during my first pregnancy yet you get people like her moaning about how difficult things are while she sits in her million pound house, eating courgettes with no real job and her husband/parents around every single day to help with the baby. So unrelatable it's unreal!

Now she’s gone out on her own with the baby to go swimming. Why is this on Angstagram? She’s looking for head pats and gasps of how do you do it?

She’s with her ‘fave girls’ so she’s not on her own after all..

When I did my nosey scroll back through her old insta, I noticed several friends tagged in wedding prep photos for instance, who never appear again. I think she got married only 5 years ago? I can’t be bothered with all that scrolling again so can’t investigate whether her bridesmaids are still chums or not! I get that people leave Instagram, but I think I’ve lost 1 friend in the last five years (and I’m an anti social old bore!) so was curious as to how many chums no longer get mentions (or perhaps aren’t insta-worthy enough!)

She fell out with one friend/bridesmaid after accusing her older sister of copying her “intellectual property” by styling her house the same. It was blatant copying to be honest, she’d post the exact same photos, but it turned really nasty. Rather than taking the view “imitation is flattery” Grabby went on a vendetta and apparently even mumma got involved in messaging this poor girl. I think that may be why her friend/bridesmaid backed off. I wouldn’t let anyone talk to my sister the way she spoke to this girl. I used to follow her and she said she was quitting Instagram because of it (we had a few personal chats via DMs and she admitted it was because of Rebecca) Her profile was @jaa36 but it’s deleted now.

That’s a bit rich seeing as Grabby gets all her ideas from Pinterest!

But she drove there on her own!, Gasp! She had to let all her followers know this.

Intellectual property? Ho, ho.

Given how much she's posting with the baby this early on, I'd say she's definitely morphing into an Instamum right before our eyes. I naively thought she would keep the baby far more private and maybe just share one or two pics but she's gone all in on the oversharing. My prediction is that she's going to position herself as the #1 mummy and baby globe trotting travellers. She's done all the house renovations, although I think they'll have a holiday cottage in Norfolk within the year, so I think she'll try a present herself as an expert on travelling with a baby and the narrative will be how you can still enjoy all your far flung 12 times a year luxury holidays with a baby in tow. And no matter how horrendous a trip is, it will be presented as easy breezy no effort. So many opportunities to grab the freebies to family friendly luxury resorts. I would say Neilson are looking for a new Instamum to replace Meldrum but I think Neilson would be a bit low rent for the Sterlings!! I don't think Mr & Mrs Smith are in the family friendly market so she might have to go head to head with DMBL40 to get a Destinology freebie.

It's not that the grandparents are involved. It's that Grabby gives the illusion of having and doing it all. She's the best, the advice giver, the big house buyer, the stylist ... it's an ILLUSION... all of it has been #gifted by Mamma and Papa ... the house, the big trips, the car - all ultimately paid for by the bank of mum & dad.

Agree with all above 👍 just to add

All whilst seeking as many freebies as she can , trying to align herself first with all those millennials who don’t want children & then all those that due ...

Why does she suck up to other insta people like Blossomingbirds then, rather then calling Anna out for copying her “intellectual property”. Grabecca is a walking contradiction

Just be a bloody adult Rebecca. Stop being so bloody dramatic about LIFE. Stop needing your head patted over ever damn thing. Do something ANYTHING on your own. You are not a little girl anymore.

I remember that account and that whole situation, the girl was really sweet but a total copycat though now everyone seems to be an RVK wannabe 🙄
