And yes exactly , this is what EVERY SINGLE parent does - we all allow our children to play with a wide variety of toys / play equipment

One of the major problems with social media and Influencers is they think they are inventing the wheel. My 19yo had a pink toothbrush: HE chose it. My 14 yo had a dolls buggy: HE chose it. One of the girls had a gun: SHE chose it ....... I could go on, this was years before "gender neutral" was invented. It was called choice/common sense/Mum make life easy. I could scream.

I don't really care how she chooses to educate her kids but the way she dismissed the education system and settled on 'oh we'll just whack them in private schooling" really ground my gears. That, and along with 'travel' in her bio (heh! Arizona travel, right? She's hardly a globe trotter), made me unfollow. She's so pointless.

I’m confused who the Arizona day out stories are for?

In that, if she was out showing off WoburnSafari Park and what a great day out it is for kids, I’d wager she’d have a few thousand followers who live within an easy distance of it and would think “yeah we’ll try it”. Does she honestly think her Arizona stories are going to make people want to go on holiday, to a desert?!

All I can see is that she is over sharing. Those kids are totally recognisable, their full names and DOBs are in the public domain, she has given up any privacy they’d hope to have. And it’s totally unnecessary. There are far more famous former athletes than Greg who’s kids you wouldn’t have a clue what they looked like or their names.

and like someone said earlier, Rex not the flavour of the month currently. But fancy taking a toddler to a museum?!

So glad I found this thread as I’ve grown to find Susie unbearable in the past year. The fact she constantly bangs on about ‘travel’ and how much she loves it. She’s been nowhere, they go to one place in America annually and that’s it. It’s not like she did loads of travel before Greg either. So essentially she’s been to Arizona 3 times and California once. A regular Judith bloody Chalmers.

So true. All of this. Arizona is hardly Outer Mongolia is it? I don’t think you can call yourself ‘travel’ anything if you go to the same full place on repeat! Those kids, she’s as bad as MOD and FOD for the overexposed private lives, less staged, perhaps.

Susie has posted she’s made a project book about their holiday for Milo to take into school. Whilst that’s a naise thing for her to do, I feel sorry for the poor teacher that has to fein interest in looking through it and marking it/ giving some feedback!

 

[yellow_daisies]

She's reading this thread, has deactivated her Twitter account

Of course she has!! Those tweets are actually quite shocking. Not such a woke modern mama after all, eh, Susie?

Question

why does Greg have a bleeding statue of him self on a roundabout in MK ?!
He’s one gold one (maybe it was twice in 2012 but I’ve slept since then )
How does that deserve a statue ?
Jess Ennis doesnt have one in Sheffield
Etc etc
You know for a fact when their eldest is in school he’ll be smug as hell about it
‘ Well my daddy has a statue so nehhhhh ‘
And while I’m on the rant ..doesn’t one of their children have chicken nugget as their middle name or something ‘wild and crazy’ like that ??

tbf as much as I cannot abide either of them, save the WR, Greg has won every major gold medal in his discipline (Olympic, Worlds, European and commonwealth) if he wasn’t such a reality TV whore, he’d probably be far more respected for what he did in his sport.

 

[Gonefishing29]

Oh wow, and she was one of the most vocal to speak out when MOD made racial comments about CB. turns out she is equally just as vile and racist.

her comments are awful, extremely racist.

 

[Northerngal]

Her fucking arrogance is astounding. Authentic my arse!

 

[QuirkyFlamingo]

He was a long jumper, not a footballer! There really isn’t that much money in athletics (unless you’re Usain Bolt) and it’s a pretty short career. Can’t fault him for making a few quid to support his family!

 

[KiKiGreen]

I agree. If she starts pulling them out of school at 15 the week of their English exam then yeah ok I could see the issue. A week of his first year at school while he’s finger painting and doing phonics isn’t a huge deal to me.

What I don’t get is letting Rex run around on the side of a mountain with no shoes on then being surprised when he hurt himself on a cactus. In Arizona.

 

[ForeverMakingJibesWicked]

It absolutely always amuses me when Tattle is used as the yardstick for identifying the lowest “trolls” of all when

a) criticism isn’t trolling

b) this site has form for holding IGers to account over transparency and fairness breaches re #ads

c) as proven by St Clementine of Denmark Hill, you know they’re all on here.

That includes you, Verrill.

 

[Oliviabob]

She really comes across (from that story plus other stories about rugby players) as someone who used to just hang around places trying to pick up a ‘celebrity’ boyfriend. Bleurgh.

 

[jessicarrr]

Another #ad disguised as a fun experience for the kids. I'd be so sad if I was one of the boys and looked back thinking that lots of the fun things my parents did with me were because they were being paid.

Also, massively tone deaf in the current situation to plug all this expensive Regatta stuff to build what is essentially a makeshift den in the living room.

I used to really like Susie and Greg but they are just so grabby now and they don't have a USP so sell the boys instead.

 

[Ihatepeonies]

She just wanted that to go viral. Unlucky for her the only place I’ve seen it is on her story

 

[BettyCrocker]

It sounds like their trip is 1st class luxury all the way. However their Arizona vacations always look so... dry and drab.

I have no idea why they keep going back to bloody Arizona. It looks shit.

 

[Basicbasic]

If they can afford private schooling then they should move in that direction. Her son is probably in a really good state school and is taking the space of a child who probably couldn't get in. I'm always surprised when she criticises mainstream schooling, she's mentioned a few times she grew up poor but now acts like state schools are 'not for our family'. Fuck off then. But if you've chosen this school and got a space respect the rules or if you're going to flaunt them don't do it so openly that people see what a dick your are.
It's the absolute snobbery she writes with (anyone remember her temporary kitchen she installed a few months ago) She's only prancing about like this because she latched on to Greg, who himself had a limited celebrity shelf life. Other than her stance on lifestyle and money I did used to like her page.

 

[Starsanddaggers]

I've screen shotted everything .
Sent to the modern mama group.
They all know but no one will call her out because she has 125k and likes to threaten people with lawyers.
She's. just. awful.
Bragging about all these new expensive books for Rexy and Milo . Making being inclusive only for the wealthy
She's just awful.

 

[Flamingollama]

Remember that time she said she wasn’t going to post anything with the kids in present time as she wanted to be ‘in the moment’ with them and not on her screen... LOL that worked well.

 

[Fanaff]

I used to like her as she seemed to take the piss out of celebs and the celeb scene (she said she hated the red carpet events etc) and I thought she was normal and relatable. However, she’s now got such a high opinion of herself and acts like she is high and mighty and above us mere mortals whose kids go to school as they should and who don’t #ad at any opportunity. She does come across as smug, I’m not sure why as her life looks very unappealing truth be told!

Thanks for the forcefully asserted medical advice Susie . It would carry more weight if: 1. It was correct; 2. She had a medical degree to back it up or y’know any qualification or even background in being able to understand and interpret research; 3. She could spell metoclopramide.
