That’s another thing that struck me - all major child experts talk about the risk of abuse at sleepovers. Even if you’re not seeking out guidance from experts, people have shared their experiences of abuse at sleepovers all over TikTok and instagram.

I get that it’s a personal decision for each family but the evidence is there - and as an NSPCC ambassador she should know better, or in the very least not advertise and show off the bedroom

what's even more interesting is that Louise has previously talked about the risk of abuse at sleepovers, and highlighted that she would never let either of her girls sleep at a friend's house, as even if she knew the parents, she couldn't predict who else may be in the house - siblings, friends etc - and then declared that, as a result, the only sleepovers the girls were allowed is when she invite their friends to stay over at HER house?! which seems wild to me, because why the assumption that the parents of other kids wouldn't have concerns about them being in a house with Louise, Liam and any potential random strangers who may turn up?! as an NSPCC ambassador, it seemed pretty privileged to be talking about her own concerns about her kids being abused at sleepovers, emphasising that her priority is to ensure they are safe - overlooking the huge safety risks of sharing every detail of their lives on the internet, obvs 🙄 - while simultaneously implying that none of her daughter's friends have parents who are concerned about their own kids' safety! especially when they are potentially sleeping over at Louise's house, which means there is always the risk their privacy will be exploited all over social media! 🤷🏻‍♂️

I’ve seen a few posts on Instagram saying the same thing - one of them was posted by an ex Real Housewife. It is a contradiction and arrogant to assume that other parents should trust you with their children if you don’t trust them with yours.

Why does she need to show a photograph of the girls bedroom? It’s such an invasion of privacy for them; no one needs to see where the girls sleep, what teddies they have on their beds, what duvet they have.
Besides all that, it’s giving me creepy Victorian nursery vibes with the iron bedsteads, frilly duvets and pictures on the wall.

It looks like the creepy nursery from start of Women In Black. I’m all for horror but maybe not in my child’s bedroom. Additionally it’s a total invasion of Pearl’s privacy not to mention a tad stupid regards security of her child. Why do I feel that is going to be an extremely structured sleep-over? No spontaneous fun to be had, cupcake decor at 430pm, tea at 530pm, make a necklace 6pm, film 7pm etc.

In the weekly video it made me laugh when Louise is filming in the car after the bath segment and Darcy is ready for Louise to pan the camera to her stage smile, while Pearl sits in her car seat looking so disinterested and gives Louise side eye as if to say “wtf are you going on about now”

Darcy has certainly been moulded into acting as the main child star of Louise’s channel while Pearl looks like she couldn’t give two shits about Lady Louise

Pearl sounded so fed up when she said 'I don't really know, I just did games'. Is it just me or did she actually look kind of frightened/worried in that moment?? It was something in the way her expression changed as soon as the focus was on her...she looked like she was put on the spot when she really didn't want to be :(

Edit: this is the moment that I mean

yeah, probably because she knew that "games" wouldn't be an answer sufficient for what Louise was expecting, yet it was likely all she could think of because - unlike Darcy - she seemed to have spent her day focused in the activities and having fun, whereas not only was D mentally taking note of everything she had done during the day, but also keeping an eye out to ensure she also memorised what Pearl did throughout the day, knowing Louise would expect a run down of the entire day, and that the pressure was on her to remember everything because she knew Pearl wouldn't be able to sit and answer boring questions and list every activity, when she was likely tired and not interested in engaging with Louise. kinda sad that Darcy can't throw herself into enjoying the moment, and instead is always distracted by having to remember every detail of both and Pearl's day, even when they are doing separate things, to please Louise later when she wants to discuss it in a story. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Why does she not let Darcy sit in the front seat in the car? Harder to get both of them in the shot maybe...

Airbags are designed for adults not kids, so are potentially fatal if they hit a child. If the airbag is turned off then she could strike the dashboard in a crash. I wouldn’t put a child in the front unless I absolutely had to (with correct car seat for the car and child’s height and weight, the airbag off and seat as far back as possible to give a survival space between the child and the dashboard). Hopefully Louise knows this, but the fact she forward faced her kids when they were much younger probably shows she doesn’t know much about car seat safety!
 
Random thought. Louise always used to mention Darcy’s dad, say things like ‘Darcy’s with her dad today so we will do xyz’ or ‘Darcy’s going on holiday with her dads family this week’. Now it feels she doesn’t ever say the D word, she will just mention darcey isn’t here today. Has anyone else noticed this? Do we think Matt has put his foot down and refused to even be mentioned in the vlogs or do we think Louise is being extra petty and refusing to acknowledge darcy has a father
 
oh, woe is Louise! after having been able to afford for Darcy to attend that dance school recently, plus the theatre school summer classes for both girls, she's now sent Darcy off to a summer course at a boarding school, so she's staying away from home for a few nights - as though she doesn't regularly spent time away from home when she stays with her dad - nd Louise is fretting at how similar the drop off and goodbye was to.....taking future Darcy to university! poor Louise! 🙄🙄
 
i’ve been thinking about it a lot over the summer as louise takes darcey to ballet boost (who, by the way, will take anyone, there’s no real audition process) and buys her expensive costumes and truly just perpetuates the notion that ballet is this exclusive art only for those with money, and the only real cursory nod to it is ‘well festivals are only a tenner to enter’. but you can almost guarantee the girl in the custom tutu is going to get noticed heck of a lot more than the girl in an old hand me down. and while i dont want to dissuade anyone away from ballet, its not a cheap sport, especially as you get older. and at the age darcey is, she should be progressing heck of a lot quicker, and its likely that louises molly-coddling isnt letting her grow & reach potential. i loved my years in ballet, but i didnt go as far as i could’ve done because my parents didnt have the money (and yeah, maybe i am just bitter). but i wish she’d just let darcey enjoy this years out of the spotlight

Darcy was a late starter but I think if she wants to pursue dance or any performance art as a career it would be better to invest the money they have in private coaching rather than summer intensives and festival costumes. She’s at the standard of a child a couple of years younger than her which won’t stand her in good stead going for auditions if that’s what she wants to do.
 
Louise is just giving perverts ammunition. Darcy is of an age where soon she’ll get some independence to go off into town with her school friends etc, and Louise doesn’t seem to have considered that her child is very recognisable.

All it will take is someone with bad intent, “oh hey Darcy I know your Mum/Dad, I’ve even been to your house, isn’t your bedroom lovely with the XYZ features and the mega Christmas decorations etc” and before you know it Darcy could find herself in a dangerous situation.

It blows my mind that she’s in any way involved with the NSPCC. I’ve a good mind to write to them.

I think she may be on some kind of medication, she's very erratic / up and down recently (no hate, just an observation, I hope it helps her)

she mentioned at the end of the “burnout” video that she is now on medication, because - for lack of better words “all the success shes had, the nice house, family, private counselling etc is sometimes not enough“
