Why post anything at all? They really don't have to. Why are they still posting if it's not for engagement?

We are just going to have to agree to disagree on this one. Personally, I think Alex probably thinks he's doing a kindness keeping people updated, but is just doing it in his own time. I don't pretend to understand Nic, she's a law unto herself. Regardless, I don't think there is anything to be gained by posting at this point as we all know she is dying and it's just a matter of when. What is to worry about for her followers at this point? It's futile, it's coming and everyone knows that. What relief do they get by his posting? Oh good she's not dead yet, but will be soon? It's just morbid.

Hundreds of thousands of people worried, and not a quick “She’s ok, just resting” update before now? Radio silence until the masses are freaked out and frantic. Sounds about right. 🙄

Exactly.and almost like she might be coming back,just needed time?
They owe noone nothing. So come on. Say your leaving the page.no more updates.family time and offline. They've kept the page open. She could have a private page now.like you know,everyone else.
And perhaps yes because people care, it might then be kind to open up with a message to let people no of her actual death.
They are choosing to keep the business page open. So they will get replying,worry and wonder from their customers. Of course they will.
And his post is deliberately vague too. It's.clever wording.
It's a carrot on a stick. Do or don't say that I'd (kind of giving their business is on there) their right. But that was another almost cruel tease.
 
I don’t agree with a lot of the stuff NNL has done and used her social media for. However in this case I can’t bring myself to think this is anything other than a reply to what can only be several messages she will be receiving. If they didn’t update their followers they’d be wrong because of how much they’ve invested in her, when Alex does it it’s being looked at like it’s for engagement. I don’t think this is. I think this is courtesy to loads of people who will be genuinely worried about her.
 
They/she have been active on Instagram multiple times a day, every single day since we last heard from her. She/they have been actively “liking” other peoples posts on instagram. They know she has hundreds of thousands of people worrying about her - yet they make the deliberate choice to say nothing, despite being active all over instagram!!!! Thats what gets people’s backs up.




also - duck off with the amateur dramatics and flouncing - no one cares. Bye.

If you take "Alex" at his word N is merely taking a "break" from SM to "rest".

Well, I'm glad he did update her thousands of devoted followers eventually. If you look over there at the comments, loads of people are clearly worried sick at the silence and they're admitting to checking her page all the time looking for updates. This is clearly one of the massive downsides of that sort of slavish doting cult-following that she's managed to whip up over the past few years. Whip 'em up, reel 'em in, take their money and then, oh, sort of fail to update 'em. Not surprising it's such a contentious subject really.

So shut down the public business page. "Sorry for the silence we understand how this might feel for those whove come to care. We are signing off to be together. Thankyou all." short sharp exit.
Then they don't have to update.
It's not an open,public,engagement,invested,business.page then.
Posting like this didn't give anything but another tease.almost like she will be back doing business as usual if she can.but might not.shes taking time(as per).so wait around...but if not,you know tough look. wait and see...or don't.

Make your mind up. Don't have a public business. Or do. Go.or don't.
This is so far in between you can see how once again people won't know what it means. How she is?to stay,go,ask,worry?
And that is exactly what content creators do.
 
Why do they always choose pictures that look like she's dead? Done that last time aswell everyone seen a morbid picture thought she was dead and it was an Alex update. If its her she knows what she's doing. If its Alex then he might need to reevaluate his pictures...from the picture of the sunset the end is very near by the looks of things :( I feel for her. And him and her family. She might be a really manipulative person but was living a pretty normal life before it. I mean I may wish cancer on a few people I absolutely hate (i have my reasons) but she wouldn't be one of them its grim she will be petrified.
