Where can I read more about this? I'm so out of the loop. And what's the Claire/Lydia situation?
It happened about 4 or 5 years ago. I'm not sure if Erica still has the vlogs up - she may have done 2 or 3 vids explaining the situation. Jerusha and minks mentioned the stalker in response to Erica's vlog but didn't say much more. I actually followed
the stalker 'influencer' on IG for a short time but unfollowed as she was, in fact, a nut and a bit of a grifter.
Lydia and Claire were BFFs for a while. Husbands became good friends as well. The problem was (and still is) that Lydia cannot maintain any friendships unless she is the Alpha and her friends bow down to her.
In this situation, Claire (or rather her husband) was the one with the $$$, the walk in closet full of designer bags, the big house and fancy car. Lydia tried so hard to impress Claire and her hubby. A box of Chanel make up as presents whilst Claire gifted her a Harrods hot chocolate loooool. Asking the price of Claire's Hermes stuff. Claire was horrified.
The friendship took a strain just before Lydjia's wedding but it was too late to uninvite Calire and hubby.
The gist or what Claire alluded to was that Lydia's main gripe was that Claire copied her by panelling her house. And Lydia would not ever like her IG posts. Nuts !
Lydia had, in fact, just bought her (new build Bunga) house but had not moved in. Claire, however, was slowly renovating her Essex home. And really, everyone was doing panelling. They still are. Influencers and their first world problems.
