I’ve seen the pregnancy announcement. She’s going to be one of those who thinks she’s the first women ever to have a baby! I’m so over it already

How many more times do we have to listen to her bang on about how great she is at cooking rice? Does she think she's the only person that can do it? I don't watch all her vlogs yet and i've seen her tell the same tale at least half a dozen times and smugly show a jug of cooked rice like she's discovered a new world, its rice Soph, calm ya tits!

She has a little ramble about lockdown 2 at the start of the newest video. It rubs me up the wrong way a little bit that influencers who's full time job includes filming their aldi food hauls and decorating their house are complaining about this when so many people have lost jobs and livelihoods recently. I know there will always be people worse off than you it just feels so tone deaf when they have such cushty lives compared to a lot of other people.

I agree. I can imagine that if he’s older and been married with a child before, he probably wants to rush things along this time. Getting engaged and then pregnant so quickly... Does anyone know how long they’ve been together? I wonder if he proposed after they found out they were expecting? Or maybe he proposed to hurry along having a baby? In her latest video she said they were supposed to be married already? Just seems strange to me...

I questioned the timeline. Been together 3 years post she did about her engagement or a Q&A. He proposed June/July and she fell pregnant in October. How she thought she would be married by now when he proposed in lockdown...and they wanted to get married abroad is beyond me

I can’t even tell you how annoying she was in the new video.
The amount of times she said ‘affordable’ was bad enough! Such a stupid word and what is affordable to her may not be affordable to many people watching.
She also stated 6 different meals.. but yet the food will apparently last them between 10-14 days.
Makes no sense and she is definitely lying to try and push how great she is on a ‘budget’.
Also the whole fact her brand is about ‘living your best life on a budget’ is fucking ridiculous. Lawrence must be earning good money for them to afford that house - I can’t imagine she brings in too much sitting around drinking cups of tea all day.
She has said they have takeaways at the weekend, seems to do quite a lot of Costco hauls and some nice holidays etc. So it’s quite insulting she tries to act as if they are hard up, when some people watching may genuinely be struggling to put food on the table.
And if she says ‘yummo’ one more time!!!!

New drinking game....every time she makes reference to being pregnant or pregnancy....already bored with this

Does anyone else think she just comes across as SO patronising?? Like thank god for her teaching us all about being vegan and saving the environment and being frugal because otherwise I’d have no idea

Her new video has annoyed me. Eye opening for who exactly? You? Exactly. Cause when you've no option but to feed your family with £5 you have to. Like who are these videos for? Because the people that are struggling know exactly what they need to do to try survive until next payday. I hate the face she's making in the thumbnail and the fact she's getting paid to literally benefit from poverty or low income. She's disgusting.

I have to say her fiance looks so much better now he brushes his hair before appearing in videos. He looks good now, so kudos for that. Sophie is still a twat though.

 

[Callmebynoname]

Oh god, I already can't deal with the "family food shop on a budget" videos - she will suddenly be an expert on feeding kids

 

[Applespice]

I do think they will need to come clean about the situation with his ex and child. It's going to come out at some point so they would be better off acknowledging it now. They wouldn't need to go into details.. just to acknowledge that this isnt Lawrence's first baby otherwise I can see things getting messy for them if it came out elsewhere.

 

[Maz86]

I just mean how can you trust a man who wants to have children, leave them and then go find another woman and do it all over again in under 3 years! My dad left my mum and did this 3 times in his life!

I don’t think it is fair to judge others especially based on your own experience. We literally do not know what the situation is and it is so stereotypical to assume he left his partner and not the other way around or furthermore assume cheating... life happens, people get together and people break up, it doesn’t make you a bad father/mother. Sorry, but it’s wrong to judge him when we don’t know the truth

 

[AutumnGhost]

Did some snooping.. He left school in 2003 which by my accounts makes him 35ish?

They've said several times that they only share a teeny fraction of their lives with us online..now I know what they mean!
I find it really strange though. Why choose to publicize yourself and some of your life on YouTube (engaged, losing her dad, having a baby) if you arent prepared to be honest about all of it.. people arent stupid and pick up on the missing links.

THIS. To me it just makes her even more of a fake than she was before we found this out. She thinks all her viewers are thick as shit.
I understand them not filming the kid & sharing any information, but to not even acknowledge the fact he already has a child is plain weird. Especially if she is staying there occasionally.

 

[Miss polar]

She’s very short with Laurence when he doesn’t answer a question the way she wants him to! I’ve noticed this more and more..

 

[carrotorange]

Baby is ‘rolling’ at 2 months? More like he moved his head and it tipped him to his back…

 

[Miss polar]

I Unsubbed from her channel months ago when she was pregnant. She was absolutely insufferable! Sounds like she’s only got worse since the sprog’s arrived!

 

[Maz86]

The kettle is £120 and the toaster is £130+ so much for being on a budget

I know! They are very expensive! It’s ok to have it if that’s how you choose to spend your money but constantly showing it off just clashes with her overall message of the channel always turns brand name into the camera too

 

[lexiloo]

The latest vlog is a heard watch, she goes on and on about what she can't eat because she has food aversion with being pregnant and how sad she is that she can't meal prep, she says it so many times all the way through and she's done an instagram post with a series of pictures showing how she can't eat many things and how pale she is because of it. It's totally OTT.

 

[AutumnGhost]

She has suddenly gone very quiet, she must have been reading here they’re now figuring out how to tell their deluded following that he already has a kid

 

[Winners_Song]

I'm sure she said she had a 20 week scan coming up in the Q&A upload on Christmas Eve, so she must have got pregnant much earlier. I was disappointed about the lack of Christmas content as well. I used to really like her channel but I now get the vibe that she has a general disdain for her followers! Yesterday's Aldi haul was a snooze fest with incorrect prices again.

 

[lokiofasgard]

Did she just basically copy grackle''s video?!

 

[Petro]

literally typed sopherina and Lawrence into google!

Also, I found him listed as a director for her company?!

Not for long, 2017- 2018, then he resigned and the company was dissolved.

On Instagram she hasn’t posted any stories for a couple of days. Usually she’s on there every day

She hasn't done a Sunday post for ages...and she promised us a bumper November and Christmas content....yet she has posted less and the epists have been mostly centred around Lawrence and his opinions....seems pending motherhood means she has less dedication...yet she will still be taunting for freebies (baby based of course)

The way she spoke about their readiness to have a child in the q&a video very much suggested it was Lawrence pushing for a baby - she said he would be pointing out cute babies all the time. She didn’t seem to be able to give a clear answer on how she knew she was ready either. Very strange!! Wonder if that’s his MO with women or maybe he wants a baby he has full control over rather than one he sees every other weekend?

2 questions go through my mind....is he excluded from his Childs life by his ex and really misses his child therefore new baby with Sophie is a replacement child that he will have in his life 24/7 or did Sophie plan on getting pregnant to ensure Lawrence never left her
