So much has happened with Leasa Wilkes in the last few weeks. But to give you the big new development, she's getting her taxpayer lump sum of £200,000 following what sounds like a very underachieving Police career which enables her to further pursue her lifelong habit of making bad decisions.
Some of the items that have been bought/planned to be bought on the spending binge (with estimated costs):
£400 Apple Watch
£200 worth of Mixtiles (she's plastered her walls with about 20 of these, apparently costing £9 each)
£50 in dozens of knock off Minkehs, Zoflora, sorting baskets and mass purchases of other 'Hinching' inspired home poisons
£200 Hinch inspired Shark Hoover
£70,000 for a new car (and not just any new car - a Range Rover!)
£0,000's to redecorate her living room Pink and Grey crushed velvet à la MrsHinch/LucyJessicaCarter/GemmaLouiseMiles/[InsertChavNameHere]
£000's for a hot tub in the back garden so she can continue her on-camera and not-so-accidental exhibitionist nipslips
£0,000's on a planned holiday to Florida
£000's on another holiday to an as of yet undisclosed location in February
£00,000's for Ellie to be home schooled (the father is against it but it sounds like she's trying to wear him down), nothing against home schooling, but with Wilkes in charge and her self confessed 'brain fog' it's a disaster waiting to happen and she could severely negatively affect her daughters life
Sounds like she's going to burn through half of it before Easter.
So now we're down to the 5th item on her shopping list. It's been bought brand new from a place called Merv Hannam - including the leather seats it looks like it was a minimum of £70,000 - the mind truly boggles - that's nearly half the lump sum in the middle of January!
She's saying everyone is jealous - she may be right and some may be jealous, but a significant number of the viewers will have Range Rovers themselves as well as larger houses etc. I don't think the fascination is simply down to people being jealous of her.
I think the reason people are addicted to watching her channel is because it's the ultimate in car crash TV - the cycles of insanity seem to be the quickest for Wilkes compared to the other dysfunctional YouTubers, the ups and downs happen on a daily basis.
I'd love to know what makes her tick and why she seems to be incapable of avoiding the same mistakes over and over again.
She had a golden opportunity to REALLY change her life - instead she's binging on materialistic things that will not make her happy and she will be back to square one much sooner than Easter at this rate.
Even her own fans are telling her to stop and not blow it all, they're telling her to KEEP her money, not waste it and she thinks they're being jealous.
It's a real shame but the cries of destitution and e-begging will resume before the end of the year.
