Wow her stories about her book this evening were tiresome. What was with her thanking everyone?! She needs to get her head out of her backside!!

I don't think I will follow her much longer. Don't get me wrong - I'm happy for her and wish her every success but I absolutely hate it when people release a book and then repeatedly share messages from fans who have read it saying how they wept/sobbed/it changed their life. And you just know she will be the worst offender when that time comes. It was bad enough with the swim suits. Humble bragging is not the kind of content I enjoy 🥴

Yes to all this. Also she has gotten to the point where she doesn't have time for the people who have put her in the position where she is now able to release clothing collections, write books etc. What was special about her has diminished imo. All we ever hear now or see are frantic posts about how busy / tired/ tired / busy she is, with the odd ad and some Betty content thrown in. It's sad really because she was always a go to for me but now I just swipe on by.

I'm sure someone new and fresh will come along soon.

Yeah I think that’s it, she’s not very personable anymore, it doesn’t feel like the nice group that it once was and maybe she’s bought into it all a bit too much for her to be the likeable person she once was. I’m sure she will be very successful and that’s great. Just not really why I was interested in her stuff. The Betty stuff is wayyyy too much for me too.

Yesss it winds me up when she goes on about Betty humping all the time. It’s a stress response, stop filming her and help her 🙄
 
Her obsession with Betty is annoying to me - I don’t follow for dog content, the hilarity she portrays because she’s poorly trained isn’t funny to me. When she took her sick dog on the tube and then got upset because people didn’t want to be near her dog puking was too entitled.

The loungewear was very disappointing - someone got it bang on the money that it’s HMP chic and doesn’t look great at all

and now a book……. I’m sure the content is great but I don’t know if I can cope with the gushing
 
So the very expensive mirror is part of a 6 month collab with the brand soo knowing how emotive a month January is for lots of people with the whole new year new me bollocks why didn't they hold off promoting it until say February or March ? Could it be because so many people feel tit about themselves that they are more likely to impulse buy something like that in January ? Her snipey retorts on anyone that dares question her integrity with regards to it are very telling too.

She is becoming increasingly obnoxious and unlikeable. The expression “don’t bite the hand that feeds you” springs to mind.

Yes I’ve just seen the snippy reply, I think that’s so unfair! The OP was just asking a question, very valid, so I think guilt might be at play there!

That was my thoughts too. I used to really enjoy her content but the privilege is just screaming out from her these days. Here's another ad for free food that I can well afford to pay for myself oh and tonight I'm going to see cirque de soleil..it's all becoming too much especially at this time of year when so many people feel shite and are struggling.
 
I’ve unfollowed her because of this. I think it’s disgraceful that she’s put this up in Jan. any other time but she looks like a total hypocrite. Also I tried to listen to her podcast- but she’s so breathy in it and sounds over excitable, really unprofessional so I’ve unfollowed that too. I’m sure she’s a) won’t notice b) won’t care but for me she was really annoying me so I had to get rid of her from my feed.

I find her one of the worst influencers now. At first she seemed great but she’s basically the same as they are, just a few dress sizes bigger.

The I’m soooo busy / stressed / talented / important is getting boring. She’s very arrogant now and just sells sells sells but defends it by saying she has to do that she can make a living and be on Instagram full time. But tbh no one asked you to give up your job and just post on social media full time? You’re not doing us all a favour.

I also think someone that was actually over their eating disorder wouldn’t need to post about it all 24/7 and throwback pics fo being thin.

And one last thing. My friend and I both went on bumble dates with Dave back in the day😄

What was Dismal Dave like?
 
Oh but her ads are so she can keep 'giving you guys ' the content you ask for! Nothing to do with affording her all the freebies she's sent plus funding her lifestyle by allowing her to profit from selling overpriced swimwear and lounge wear.

And is it just me that finds Dave very awkward and unfunny? He's a nice guy but he really isn't funny.

That mirror was gifted to her! To buy its over 2k plus there is a monthly subscription on top which is almost 40 quid. How can she in good conscience seriously believe that's something most people can afford and would she honestly have bought it herself at that price ? Unlikely
