I really want to start a thread for thisworldcanbeaccessible/Jade on Tiktok and the ongoing Airbnb saga - I even started a timeline of events before I realised I can no longer create threads on the tiktok forum (I could up until very recently) - she’s got 30k followers and the story is finally getting picked up by some larger tiktok accounts.

not-a-medical-Dr Jessica Taylor monetising the Russell Brand and David Walliams news is disgusting. She forced her vulnerable employees to sign an NDA to stop them whistle blowing. She threatened survivors of sexual abuse to sue them for “every single one of their assets” if they spoke up. She is one of the most dangerous people in the VAWG sector and does so much harm to women and girls.

I really like her, she said she thinks a lobbyist group have picked up the 'guests' legal stuff any ideas on who'd they'd be?
Thank you to the mods for starting this thread!
I wondered whether anyone else had been following this lady and her story?
To give a brief timeline:
This lady, Jade has Huntingdon’s Disease which is terminal. Among other co-morbidities that come with Huntingtons she has early onset Alzheimer’s and I believe she stated she was partially deaf.
Living in Ireland, Jade rents out the upstairs of her house via Airbnb. The upstairs consists of a large bedroom and bathroom. She charges only about €20 per person per night but reviews on her Airbnb and photos show it as being clean, tidy and bright and almost every review is 5*.
In July 2022, Jade had some guests arrive who refused to ring the doorbell because they saw it was an “accessible doorbell” - the doorbell in question looks the same as any other doorbell but had a small notice underneath saying “Please ring the doorbell instead of knocking, I am disabled so please be patient” or something to that effect. The reason being is the doorbell is connected to a gadget she always has with her that lights up and vibrates when the bell is rang so she is able to hear it.
On arrival the guests were very rude to her, implying they did not want to catch the disability, that they were uncomfortable around disabled people, called her slurs and the husband implied that disabled people are stupid.
Scared, she stayed in her kitchen and contacted Airbnb to see if they could make alternative arrangements for the guests but they were unable to and instead Airbnb told her to just “stay out of their way.” In her own house.
The guests then accused her of everything from the kettle to the toilet as being a disability aid.
Airbnb then contacted her asking her when she expected her disability to be “resolved” - which given her terminal Diagnoses was obtuse at best.
This saga continued after the guests had left. Lots of to and fro strange conversations from Airbnb. They asked for a list of disability aids in her home (including everything she’d bought - such as towels etc, because if a disabled person buys them apparently they are disability aids) and she ended up having to get legal advice.
In September the guest made the decision to sue her for the life long therapy they will need for spending less than 48 hours in a disabled persons home. This therapy includes 40 hours of reiki therapy per month, multiple yoga retreats and massage. For all the therapy they have said they need, they would be doing approximately 40 hours a week of therapy for at least the next 2 years (the equivalent of a full time job!)
As of a couple of days ago, Airbnb have asked her to show them HOW SHE SHOWERS in order to build a picture of how disabled she is. The saga continues. She has done a lot of videos on it and it gets even more insane if you watch them all.
images attached of the guests review and her response (anonymised) (also I missed some
Of it and the review appears to have now been taken down)
One more edit: I should probably add there is now a petition. I’m not sure I am allowed to link it but if you search “change Help me show a Judge that disabled people aren't scary” it will likely come up on google.

I wondered that too, I’ve been doing some searching but it’s hard to find much at all. The only thing I’ve managed to find out is the name of one of the guests and their nationality but haven’t seen anything else from their side. Continuing to sleuth.

This story is so shockingly sad and I can't believe that anyone would have so much hatred in them to honestly pursue this. I saw her original video on it at the time of the first complaint and I can't believe how far it has escalated. I understand complaining to Air BNB as clearly these guests didn't get what they (unrealistically!) expected, but for them to sue for such a life changing amount of money is disgusting. I hope the judges simply laugh in the claimants faces.
I’ve been watching her videos since she first posted and seems like a lovely person. It is absolutely ridiculous and yes escalated perhaps a bit from wanting a refund on their stay to what you’ve mentioned above. Jeez oh, people who have gone through severe trauma don’t even get a fraction of that kind of support, why do they think they’d be entitled because they were offended by a doorbell. It is ridiculous and has put me right off ever using an Air B&B as they seem an atrociously badly run organisation.
Just a quick write up of some of the therapies that the guests are stating they need to get over their trauma (and that they are attempting to sue her millions for):
- 200 hours of energy healing over 6 months
- 200 hours of reiki therapy over 6 months
- 2 Trauma retreats per month for 6 months
- Daily emotional support with a trauma informed friend
- 150 hours of head massage over 6 months
- A Pilates specific environment in their home
- Pilates equipment
- 200 hours of night terror support over 6 months
- New bedding
- Emotional release therapy
- 6 weighted blankets
- Colouring pens (of a specific brand) for life
- 24 adult colouring books per year, for life
- Aromatherapy equipment
- Essential oils
- aromatherapy massage
- Emotional support animal (1)
- Cost of animal for life including: food, vet bills, insurance, pet toys, pet passports
- Replacement of Emotional support animal 1 and all associated costs for life
- Emotional support animal (2) and all the above costs associated with (1)
- An RV
- homeopathic treatment
- Yoga equipment
- Yoga classes
- Art classes, two per week until retirement age
- Visualisation classes
- A house cleaner, 2 times per week until their emotions are regulated.

Yes she has a couple of YouTube videos going into more detail - apparently this isn’t even the full list!Wow! I only watch the TikToksis this list on YouTube?
So my FYP has thrown up some random vids tonight, apparently her names Samantha Cookes? She reported herself missing, defrauded a couple out of surrogacy money! Google looks like it is her????
judging by the photos I do believe it’s the same person as the missing woman. The ‘missing’ woman ran away to Ireland which is where she lives now. However the surrogate was in Yorkshire and I don’t think she looks as similar.
You can see her airbnb listing here along with the reviews where she mentions the guests not liking disabled people: https://abnb.me/922aOudYUtb
I’ve seen some people on TikTok saying they don’t believe she is terminally ill. I do believe she is because she’s been writing books, articles and maintaining an Instagram account about it since her diagnosis in 2020.

I've never heard so much rubbish in all my life. If there is a £450k lawsuit as she claims it's most likely to be Air BnB seeking damages for slathering their name over social media with a made up story.
There has been absolutely no evidence as far as I've seen despite repeat requests from a number of account.

She is a scammer people who knew her under different aliases have identified her and she blocked all her tiktok comments. Maz pugsley on tiktok has a video up with 100k views outing her. Freckles, moles teeth all match the original name. This story is so Farfetched I don't know how anyone believed it
I've just clicked through to the guests feedback and profile and she has responded, and not in a way I expected. I'm opening my eyes a little bit more to this now. I did always think it was a little far fetched. This is wild!

I ran here from TikTok. Her account there is gone, YouTube vids are now all private and her Insta is gone too. Intriguing…
Everyone is saying her next step would’ve been to ask for help funding a legal battle! A go fund me or something like that! I don’t know what to believe tbh!
