What Wegan Did Next

[DoubleTrouble1712]

Oh my goodness I’ve been waiting for a thread about these two! I can’t cope with them - the puckered kissing photos, the deliberate matching followed by the whining about people thinking they’re sisters/twins/cousins whatever, Whitney’s horrible use of the word ‘alas’ (irrational, I appreciate!) - not to forget Megan’s stomach and skin issues, exacerbated no doubt by the gifted medication she took without a prescription. I think their story is cute - but good Lord they need some new content and an actual hook for their brand. Did you know we conquered long distance and Whitney is American?! Yes, because you’ve mentioned it once a fortnight for the last 10 years

The ‘I’m so girly and pink and feminine not like those other lezzers’ thing is really getting a bit embarrassing now. Are they EVER going to grow up?

I live in the same town as Whitney and Megan and have followed them online for years. I like their more 'authentic' content, such as Megan's disability awareness and their fertility equality campaign. Occasionally they will open up about their skin issues, PMDD, ADHD, etc. I also think their back story as a couple is sweet, and they clearly love each other.

I do wish they'd take a step back from the constant kissing, twinning, posing and preening. I understand it's part of their identity, but they are rapidly becoming a parody of themselves. As someone in a same-sex marriage myself, I no longer find them relatable as a couple.

A while back, they asked for constructive criticism from their followers and then became visibly annoyed when the feedback was 'be more genuine'. They hit back with several old, unposed, unedited photos of themselves and said 'Is THIS really want you want to see more of?' - complete with laughing crying emojis and an opinion poll - but it backfired, because the overwhelming answer was 'yes'

It’s really not unusual to be in a long term relationship by your mid thirties. They don’t seem to be able to move on mentally from when they started blogging and they saw their relationship as being aspirational for their young followers. They seem now to be talking an audience much younger than they are but I’m not sure that audience are going to be interested.

To add to this - I hope all followers (or future followers) of ‘relationship’ influencers recognise that:

Not every long-term relationship is a happy one.
Not every ‘aspirational’ relationship is a healthy one.
Nobody knows what goes on behind closed doors, away from the highlights reel of social media.
Also, a romantic relationship doesn’t define or complete you.

Comparison is a fool’s game when it comes to love. We simply can’t compare relationships, as they are all so unique. Whilst there may be some common denominators - love, respect, communication, etc - what works for one couple (or person) won’t necessarily work for another.

I cringe myself inside-out when I see reels like Wegan’s, trumpeting ‘Our secrets to a successful relationship!’ I’m not dismissing their 15 years together, including long-distance. Nor am I saying they’re being disingenuous. But in my experience, couples who truly HAVE stood the test of time tend to be very humble about it. I have spent a lot of time with the elderly in my line of work, and inevitably - if they share anything at all about their relationships - they say it comes down to love and a large helping of good fortune. One couple who celebrated their 70th wedding anniversary - together for a lifetime and utterly devoted to each other - were bewildered that anyone else would be interested in their story, and didn’t want any fuss. Some of these relationship bloggers would do well to take a leaf out of their book.

I just find them so weird and icky. I’m a lesbian and I would absolutely hate for anyone to think my other half is my sister!!

 

[sheleg]

Why are they so obsessed with stating that their daughter's gender is only "assigned at birth"? Just enjoy the fact that you're having a girl, FFS. Nobody (except weirdos) is. thinking about her future gender identity.

In any case, I'm pretty sure they would have been devastated with a boy to ruin their aesthetic.

 

[Medusah80]

Please reminds us again how you met on MySpace and “conquered” long distance it’s literally their only narrative (apart from the recent slagging off of the nhs for not catering to their needs)

If they can afford all them holidays then surely they can afford IVF

Guys! Wegan baby is a go! They announced so early considering all the troubles they had. Also - what happened to the move?

 

[Ches_Mas]

Just watched their day in the life Valentines edition which seems like they just wanted to make a video to show off their kettle. Imagine buying a £100+ kettle and then choosing to have it in pink
I don’t know what annoys me about them more; their boring/uninteresting story or their materialism

 

[sheleg]

They seem to weirdly get off on people mistaking them for sisters. It's beyond weird. I've been in lesbian relationships before and never felt the need to morph into my partner.

 

[DoubleTrouble1712]

What do you think

I think it’s ridiculous and I am struggling to understand how they have so many followers with such little interaction on the reels or whatever they’re called. We’re not sisters/mother and daughter/Whitney is American done to death over and over, insert a couple of pouts for good measure.

 

[hazelwood123]

Their post-baby posts are just mental! They actually posted a video of the c-section and the baby’s birth.

Then all the posts from the private hospital culminating in a shot of the baby with a Louis Vuitton bag and a Mercedes. Can’t make it any clearer that this baby is going to be used to market and sell products. It’s being presented as an accessory to consumerism already.

I expect they’ve gone full wealthy London mummy and have a maternity nurse.

Soo glad I found this thread.

Did anyone see they deleted and re-uploaded their latest video, all because a woman left a comment saying Megan was rude to Whitney (which she absolutely was!!) and ofc Megan has made a huge sob story of it saying she cried for an hour about it God these girls need to get a grip!

Me too! I wasn't expecting to find anything, but Tattle seems to have everything!

I was rolling my eyes at Megan, who had been crying for an hour over a comment on a video. Honestly, you'd think that after being on the internet for so long, she would have thicker skin by now. I'm assuming that she might have done it due to hormones, exhaustion from the baby etc, but it is a bit cringe.

I don't know why but this couple have always made me cringe. I feel it is the fact they dress the same and they like to do the twin thing with their clothing, especially a few years ago. I also feel like Megan is really mean, and I get mean girl vibes off her. Whitney, I don't have too many opinions on but I think that it is because she seems like Megan's handbag and she just does what Megan is doing. I also find it embarrassing that they act like major celebrities, especially with the baby on the way, with the 'we've been keeping a secret from you,' and revealing that she was born weeks before and they are doing a big name drop announcement. I feel like not many people outside UK lesbian Instagram is going to be interested in them. You just know that this child is going to be an accessory for contenet with matching mummies and me outfits ect.

 

[sheleg]

My gosh, will they ever stop going on about how they met and were long distance? STFU!

 

[Medusah80]

Guys! Wegan baby is a go! They announced so early considering all the troubles they had. Also - what happened to the move?

wonderful news however it is going to be the longest pregnancy in history.
announced early so they can start cashing in

 

[rydell high]

I’m massively irked by their latest post, which suggests that ‘fertility acupuncture’ and ‘removing chemicals and plastics from the home’ are prerequisites for getting pregnant. I actually don’t know where to begin with it.

 

[Drbrox]

I met them at an LGBT gala dinner / charity auction event c.2016. They were speaking to the person I was with and so I tried to engage in conversation and they were literally scoping the room out for "famous" people / those they thought had more status / use to them i believe. They were rather rude and quickly dashed when they noticed someone that they could have a photo with. I noted it was rude to the person I knew at the event and she described them as "vapid". I do not doubt they are nice girls but the content is not at all relatable and the matching outfits are a little much.

 

[gummy-bear]

Oh my goodness I’ve been waiting for a thread about these two! I can’t cope with them - the puckered kissing photos, the deliberate matching followed by the whining about people thinking they’re sisters/twins/cousins whatever, Whitney’s horrible use of the word ‘alas’ (irrational, I appreciate!) - not to forget Megan’s stomach and skin issues, exacerbated no doubt by the gifted medication she took without a prescription. I think their story is cute - but good Lord they need some new content and an actual hook for their brand. Did you know we conquered long distance and Whitney is American?! Yes, because you’ve mentioned it once a fortnight for the last 10 years

Agree. Their content is soooooo so so boring it’s unreal. ‘Megan loves red apples, whereas Whitney prefers green’ ?! Tell me why anyone needs to know these boring as hell facts.
I’ve found their recent stuff about pregnancy quite interesting so maybe they’ll latch onto that more. I hope for them it does all work out, although I cannot imagine them with a baby boy how would they cope not having all the pink!

 

[sheleg]

Quite frankly, they look and sound as if they have about two brain cells between them.

 

[Redrose97]

I don't know what they'll do when their child starts having their own autonomy and has their own opinions and doesn't want to be an accessory. I'm really hoping they have a tom boy but I feel they won't allow it. I feel a lot of infulencers want a child for the content and money and forget that they need to parent this child.
