I'm sad, to a small extent. Shed a little tear as we watched the announcement.

Loads of people don't give a tit...then others have lined the streets to watch her coffin drive by. They're quite a minority though.

Imo she's being ridiculous.
To be fair, I'm not a huge royalist but if the coffin was being driven near where I lived and I had nothing better to do I'd consider going to watch it as well. I think a lot of people you see on the telly outside Buckingham palace etc aren't so much sad about the queen's death as they are interested in it as a significant historical event- most of them are waving phones around trying to get pictures, not being silent and respectful as you'd expect if they were in mourning. I imagine that most people were at least somewhat sad to hear the news, but definitely not to the extent Louise seems to think
 
I clicked onto her story and I’m actually screaming at the sad piano music. And how her and the family apparently went out for a long walk just to ‘just breathe fresh air and be together’. Sorry but did she even carry on like this when her own grandparents passed away?

And the irony is the Queen herself would’ve found the OTT emotional reactions bizarre. Wasn’t she kind of bemused by the public outpouring of grief when Diana died? To the point where the public opinion of the Windsors was fairly negative at this time.
 
I was definitely shocked on Thursday when it was announced, but have felt a bit weird since. My nephews football game was cancelled yesterday. My dad said that we’re not supposed to be appearing to have fun! It’s all unknown territory because it wasn’t like this when Diana died - for obvious reasons!
I agree that Louise is being dramatic. The feeling unsettled about going back to routine is so privileged! The majority of parents have to juggle parenting with work during the school holidays. She has been paid to go on holiday twice this year.
I bet the girls are back at dancing next week. Will we get #dancemummonday?!
 
Oh my god she’s being genuinely hilarious about it. “Hope you’re all okay ❤️“ “It’s been a very difficult week hasn’t it?” “Last week was so hard” I literally don’t know a single person as upset as she is. Either people don’t care at all or they shared a photo or two on Insta stories and moved on within about 12 hours. Obviously she has some (understandably) unspecified family stuff going on which she’s referring to as well but trust me, Louise, we’re all fine and no one will be offended if you keep posting photos of wardrobe or your children in matching outfits. Or I will, because I don’t agree with you oversharing your children, but yknow. Whatever.
 
Apologies if this is out of pocket, I don't know her etc. But I just don't understand how someone who went through all that trauma as a child, horrible, horrible events, is acting like this about someone she doesn't know. Unless it's somehow dredged up memories? It makes her look like she has no resilience whatsoever.
 
It’s the way Louise keeps mentioning this family stuff going on behind the scenes. If you want to (rightly) keep it private, then there’s really no need to keep going on about it, it only causes speculation and interest!

I suspect it may have something to do with Matt and Devon as they have both now gone private on Instagram. Plus she mentioned routines the other day, which suggests something to do with the kids.
See, I’ve fallen into her trap of speculation🙄

I remember a few people on here saying that they had emailed the NSPCC because they disagree with her being an ambassador as she shares so much about the girls online. Maybe that has filtered through to her. She talked about the girls starting school, but hasn’t shared any pictures of them since last week. She could have asked Matt and Devon to make their profiles private. But we are being forced to speculate because she is being cryptic!

I’ve thought this too about her emotional resilience. She does seem very delicate and reactive and I have wondered. Perhaps her experiences had the opposite effect you’d expect, and actually made her far less able to cope with the slightest difficulties/inconveniences.

Plus I read somewhere that people who suffer serious trauma can sometimes get mentally ‘stuck’ at the age when it happened. Louise has a very childlike perspective on life imo. And I think marrying her first real boyfriend straight out of uni, getting into YouTube as a career at the right time and blowing up with very little work/talent didn’t help. She’s emotionally stunted for sure.
 
I'm not from the UK but I was very sad when I heard the Queen had died. Can't speak for Louise or anyone else obviously but for me it had to do with all the change/difficulties the world is going through at the moment. And now even Queen Elizabeth is gone. I'm not sure I'm explaining it properly. It's just a lot at once, I guess I'm mostly grieving for the world we used to have? Which is of course a very privileged, Western thing to say so yeah.
 
Theres no way someone is that sad about a person they don't even knew in person ???? Thats so weird to me,like she must see on the internet how nobody really cared that much about it and actually were making jokes? But she still hit us with the hope youre all okay❤️ i just 😂😂😂😂😂
 
I was following Devon when it was said Matt went private, but I’ve been removed now. She still has 1000s of followers so I wonder how she selected the ones she doesn’t have any more?

she may be removing everyone she doesn’t know personally but in batches. I’m sure I’ve seen influencers say before that if they try to remove too many followers too quickly Instagram can block your account
 
she’s so out of touch with the real world.
she posts an excessive number of stories about the queens death and then has gone on to discuss how much you’d pay for an advent calendar. Cost of living crisis who? Some people are having to chose between heating their home and feeding themselves so, Louise, I’d probably say nothing 🙄
