If you want to see some full blown neurotic behaviour on your Thursday morning, pay a visit to Leigh's stories
I agree with everything you said above! Also I’m so sorry to hear you recently lost your dad. My heart absolutely broke for Leigh and her family when they lost him. I can’t even image how it must feel On another note, she is insane to think women don’t want other women to make money. I am so so so proud of all the women I know who are doing well financially and reaping the rewards of hard work! I extend that feeling to pretty much anyone who isn’t a complete hole as soon as their economic situation changes (cough cough, LC). Also, I agree Tattle is a fun little outlet for most of us- not serious at all! I got into it during lockdown and it was nice to have a little chat and witch with all the hilarious people on here. So many talented and funny writers among us!A whole thread - wow, I have so much to say!!
I still quite like LC and I do follow some of her beauty recommendations when they are legit. She seems to try really hard to make her recommendations seem genuine but I think it’s pretty obvious when it’s her real opinion or if it’s paid.
The thing that gets me though is the weird flexing of her “wealth”. I'm eastern suburbs born and bred and I still live here, and I have never felt the need to talk about money. My friends and I laugh at people like LC because it’s SO OBVIOUS when someone has moved here for the clout. Genuine wealth doesn’t flex. It’s a given.
In saying that, I can think of at least two other women I know IRL who have recently turned 40 and they're starting to act a bit like LC. It's like they've hit 40 and perhaps their life isn't where they thought it would be so they're trying to convince themselves (and everyone else) how happy they are.
I was a bit offended when she said in her stories that women don't like other women earning $$. Seriously? What is she basing this on? I don't think about money or how much others are earning. She seems to think and talk about money ALL THE TIME - why though? How often do we hear Amy Gerard or KFE talk about their income?
Final thought (for now!) - my dad passed away recently too and it is earth-shattering. I totally understand the shift towards living for now, going on more trips, going for dinner more etc etc. But then she said "I'm shopping more now". Everyone is different but losing my dad made me shop less because I realised that "stuff" doesn't really make me happy. It's people and memories and experiences that are most meaningful. I get massive anxiety when her camera moves and we get a glimpse of the mess in the background.
I love Tattle, so many LOLs!
Yet she will blame it on all the 'unhappy, miserable people on Tattle'Looks like we’re not the only ones who think the same about her! Seems she’s been getting a lot of “hate” in the Q+A

What is That pic?? Did I miss somethingShe was completely not on my radar until a bunch of my friends stopped following her after THAT pic but I can’t help myself I love a good trainwreck.
What I don’t understand is how someone with all this beauty stuff at her disposal including cosmetic treatments she still looks like that? Her eye bags are embarrassing and her lips are foul.
Yep! Insta took ages to take it down. Quite a few people politely mentioned it in the comments, but she didn’t care.I never saw it but apparently she posted a nude photo of her young son on her public gram and didn’t remove it. Like free willy type nudity. She lost a lot of fans and gained a whole bunch of haters after that.
Yes she genuinely looks like tit. She needs to dissolve all that filler ASAP. I don't trust any of her recs anymore.She was completely not on my radar until a bunch of my friends stopped following her after THAT pic but I can’t help myself I love a good trainwreck.

And she turned off the comments!Yep! Insta took ages to take it down. Quite a few people politely mentioned it in the comments, but she didn’t care.
I watched Leigh’s silly rant about Tattler- I found my people! I love to chat about the ridiculous things these influencers go on about - leigh is beyond obnoxious. I DM’d her to say I think it is inaccurate and off putting, perhaps even lacking the gratitude for us- her audience she outspokenly requests from her followers- to say she provides us all info for “free”- it certainly is not free! There is a transaction at play, without an audience, she isn’t securing paid content deals! We may not pay however we absorb her endless advertisements for the pleasure of her “expert” advice. I worded it in a much more polite tone. Her DM back was so rude “are you paying me”. Then she blocked me. I get it, not nice to be called out. I’m also eastern suburbs born and bred as a previous commenter mentioned- she is ALWAYS talking about her amazing income and lifestyle- not humble and not even slightly accurate.
