I used to really like her at one point and now I think she just comes off as a little ungrateful at times with her constant moaning.

moaning about being anxious, moaning about school runs ect ect...

Try having to go to work for 40 hours a week when you actually have work related anxiety and depression, I feel physically sick everyday having to go to work, these influencers don’t know how lucky they are! I’d love to be able to stay at home all day!

with a husband who is home all day, too. We don't always know what goes on behind the scenes, but seems like she has a very easy life compared to many.

Exactly! And they’re always off for lunch and coffee and can afford to take long holidays because they’re both self employed. Obviously as you say we don’t know what goes on behind the scenes, but from what she shows us it seems to be a life many would envy.
 
it will have a door, she mentioned it previously. We matched our utility to our kitchen when we had it redone. I think quite a lot of people do.
I just find it a bit strange. Maybe match the units I guess... but why go all out with a floor when the door will be shut most of the time to hide those muddy football boots??
With no window that room is going to get damp - delightful smell! Doesn’t matter whether you have a condenser drier or not. You need decent ventilation. Will they even have an extractor fan?? I reckon if she reads this suddenly there’ll be one. Though it’ll go straight through garage, not outside 🤔 Just my opinion though. I’m no house expert.
I just feel she’s done that utility mainly to show the gram cause the few guests they do get won’t really be interested in the utility room!! 🙄
 
I converted my garage like Katie and used part for a utility, when building regs came round they wouldn’t sign it off until an extractor fan was put in the utility even though I had a condenser dryer!
she said she didn’t need planning which I’m surprised about as she changed the garage door to a window. I did the same but we did require planning permission
 
Maybe she just did it because she likes it that way. I do plenty of things decorating wise that is just for me not because of who will see it visitors etc
I’d probably believe that more if she did other things for herself. She’s too worried about what everyone thinks - her followers!! Sad life to have the need to keep up with the Jones and then only add a slightly different tile in the utility to jazz it up a bit. Again, it’ll be hidden incase she gets comments from people saying they don’t like it. So I think she does things for other people rather than herself most of the time. Shame as she was a bit more herself when I first started following her but she’s morphed into another one these other so-called ‘influencers’ who all compete against each other.

We had an extension in our house, to create a utility room and downstairs bathroom. Even though we had windows both rooms needed extractor fans to meet regulations.

We're looking at converting the garage in the next few years and it falls under permitted development BUT it's always worth checking with your local planning team re permission.

@CuckooLand I think her whole house is for show- not for visitors but for IG. I think had she not been an influencer she would've saved and done it up slowly, like she originally stated. Rather than add another £100k to her mortgage. There's some cognitive dissonance there, she's aware that IG success has a shelf life but she added so much money onto her mortgage. It just seems a risky thing to do when you're a seemingly sensible person.
Sorry off on a tangent - by her own admission she was struggling for content ideas - so did up her house quickly.
 
I mean to be fair, have you seen some of the shite we talk about on these threads?! A cut finger is quite a reasonable thing to comment on in comparison to what is talked about over on Rebecca lambs and Meldrums 😂
Let's be honest, Katie gets a pretty easy time on here because even the majority of her trash thread commenters like her 🙈😂

Exactly! KE gets an easy ride here for doing similar tit to the Meldrums et al.
Posting a story about a cut finger is scraping the barrel. I think influencers have become so warped they need to share the minutiae of their lives - that's not something unique to Katie.

Completely agree!! She’s too predictable these days. It’s quite nauseating. It’s worrying really as other people could think they could do the same as her as she makes it look so easy and it really isn’t.
I see she’s also ‘working’ with a car company now too!! And a blooming breakfast company!! Anything for a bit of content!!!!! Yawn!!
 
2 things:

1) She needs to STOP hiding behind a lie. She isn't skipping vlogmas because she doesn't want to invade her kid's privacy. Honey, that ship sailed long ago. She isn't doing vlognas because it's her definition of "a lot of work" and she's not interesting enough to film every day.

2) All of these vloggers should stop doing individual tags. Their answers are all the same. At least Katie didn't say her favorite Christmas song was All I Want for Christmas is You. She gets points for that.
