What about the Lidl veg box for £1.99 (literally and specifically designed for people on a low income to access fresh food) directly underneath the post about the Selfridges garden centre? Quite distasteful....

Is she saying they take all those books off the shelves every night a) so the older child can read them and b) so they don't fall on the baby? Every single night, and then putting them all back again the next morning. And then taking them down again at every baby nap time....

Absolutely bonkers. Or more likely completely untrue 🤥

I know. I’m sure I read some comments earlier that have since been deleted, and everyone was being so polite to her as well. What a woman.

I can’t wait for her passive aggressive chat or post later about the kids room. It will be like the cots sheets when she was really rude to people who suggested stuff for her or that even weirder time when she told her followers not to ask her questions about stuff she has posted about or any of her content and to google it themselves.
😂😂😂😂 insane

I wouldn’t have wasted my time on the baby safety. She knows all this, it’s her second child & she’s not stupid. It’ll just make her even more resentful.

Using her loosing the twins in that response is wrong, there will be people that weren't following her so might think they died in an accident from that comment. The sooner 'influencers' become proper regulated like media the better, I know this wasn't a sponsored post, she just can't handle any negative comments maybe it's time to find a proper job. None of it is valuable or interesting content, and she sounds vile! Stop wasting your money on tit Alex and see an ENT specialist!

The pic of the children's room reminded me so much of her sister's version, except Alex took it to an extreme. Her sister even had a story of her daughter jumping on her bed and then reaching up to pull on the wall shelf ledge - a shelf holding a glass front picture frame. Plus it was much higher than Alex's version.

I don't know why she can't put Cato in the other room. Just because her Nan had 47 siblings that all slept in the same bed doesn't mean she has to try and duplicate a similar situation.

It’s just such a shame impressionable young mums will see it and not even read the comments. Makes me feel quite ill.

She has no problem showing a naked baby while shilling some stupid towel

Yeah the twins thing is grim. I guarantee there will be at least one parent who has seen that photo (she has a quarter of a million followers, and her demographic is parents) who has lost a baby to SIDS. For them to then see some woman flogging a dangerous setup on Instagram for money, at the expense of babies safety is just awful.

How distasteful for her to basically say ‘it’s okay for me to do this because I’ve lost babies too you know’ when she actually miscarried them, they didn’t die from SIDS. A very sad circumstance still, but very gross of her to use a miscarriage as a defence for behaving so appallingly.

I used to like her style and her interior stuff. The travel stuff was useful too although she lost her way a bit. Thought she was harmless enough, even though the walking along silently while holding the phone thing has been annoying me for years. The pretending Sainsbury’s was Lidl last week was bizarre

This cot stuff is horrible. I don’t know why she’d use the loss of her twins to make the point she did. And like she takes all the books down every time he has a nap! And all the very worthy books pushed to the front, it’s so embarrassing (I know someone who claims a book about Harriet Tubman is her 3 year olds favourite. Ok!)

New thread title ideas?
I’m trying to think of one to incorporate Sainsbury’s, the resentment about free content and the ‘secret’ extension, but no joy yet!

What is the point of her Hastings guide. From what I can see she went to the pier with her kids and the rest she has googled. She has no actual personal recommendations of anywhere she ate or they visited.
I’ve never been to Hastings and I could have compiled that guide

I feel she thinks her followers are stupid?

Her tiles will drive me crazy, I think many influencers renovated their house in 2017-2018, and 3 years later, it is already looking so dated. I think there are too many things going on (as usual eh?), herringbone tiles with black grout, the blue tiles and the Victorian sinks and loo.
