In May 2017, Gabriella was talking with her friend Ellie on Twitter about how she pooed in a box and had to facetime Ellie for moral support. Gabby claimed it was because she'd just had surgery and had to use a box to poo in, however Ellie then says that was NOT the reason. The reason was that Gabby's brother George and his friend were staying at her flat, and she decided to poo in a box in her room to avoid them hearing her poo in the bathroom. Gabby admitted to this on Twitter and then realised she had pooed in a box on TWO occasions.
What's with the Lasagne in the Bath Reference?
It all started with Gabbie tweeting about eating lasagne in the bath and it falling in. She also mentioned it in this video. It's been a running joke ever since.
Other things she's enjoyed during a bath:
What is the emergency cricket match story?
When asked if she would spend her 25th birthday with her mum, she snapped and arrogantly told the commenter that she would be with her imaginary boyfriend.
But luck was not on her side and she hilariously got caught in her lie in 4k by fans who saw her out on her birthday, no boyfriend in sight. When confronted with it, she once again lost her temper and said he was at a cricket match in York. This has since become the infamous and often referred to "emergency cricket match" story.
The famous emergency cricket match comment:
"thanks Jane for taking the photo"

Revealing the gender of Hobbie's twins before him
Gabbie's great unrequited love Hobbie announced that he was having twins in late 2017 and her way of dealing with the heartbreak was to go overboard with seeming unbothered and buying baby clothes that she then showed online. Since she bought outfits for both a girl and a boy, she revealed the gender of the babies before he could do so himself.

Scandals/Notable Moments
*TRIGGER WARNING*
Lying About her Weight Loss Surgery & Promoting Disordered Eating:
Gabbie initially claimed she lost 8 stone through the help of a dietician and exercise, although she made multiple claims that she starved herself. Before the knowledge of her WLS surfaced, she said she lived off almost nothing but orange juice and would forget to eat. According to earlier discussions on Guru Gossip, Gabbie had a private twitter that she would encourage and recommend people to skip meals and starve themselves. No screenshots were taken at the time, so unfortunately there is no proof of this.
After claiming that she lives off two glasses of orange juice a day with no food, a concerned fan told her she shouldn't starve herself. Gabbie got extremely defensive and claimed that's how she lost 6.5 stone.
She claims that food posts are extremely triggering to her, but continues to post pictures of extremely unhealthy meals and her daily Starbucks drinks. Fans have kindly and politely offered advice on healthier substitutes or how she should cut back on certain foods because of all of her supposed intolerances, but she gets 'triggered' and blocks them.
Some screenshots:
The Manchester Bombing Tweet Incident:
Following the Manchester Bombing Attack in 2017, Gabbie posted a series of tweets halfan hourafter the attack claiming she had a dream an attack would happen at the Ariana gig she was going to go to in London and said she was 'psychic'. Of course, this didn't go down well at all with many people on Twitter. It took her days to issue a vague apology.
Fan Responses:
When someone suggested doing a cover for charity:
Her 'apology': It should be noted that this apology was issued days later, and after the 'pet peeve' tweet fiasco, so it isn't too clear on what she's referring to. So these following screenshots may very well be for the pet peeve tweets - and not about the Manchester bombings.
The 'Pet Peeve' Tweet Fiasco:
Days after the Manchester Bombing tweets, Gabriella posted the infamous 'My biggest pet peeve is when people complain about their body + claim to be terribly self conscious YET WEAR SHORTS N BARE THEIR BODY'. Again, this didn't go down too well.
Juniper Moon & The Plagiarism Scandal:
On the 1st October 2020, Gabbie launched 'Juniper Moon', an online shop of supposed home decor - consisting of prints, stickers, pins and tote bags. However, prior to launch, some fans found the private IG account of JM through their recommended and were immediately blocked after requesting to follow. Comments were left by fans on her other SM, but they were either blocked or the comments were deleted. Gabbie never addressed this.
After posting some of her latest prints, some users on tattle noticed some major similarities between her artwork and the art of some businesses she followed on instagram. The conversation first starts here. Most noticeably two girls that go under the name och_monika on instagram and aa.ninaa.
Top row: Gabbie
Bottom row: Monika and Nina
As soon as this surfaced, she unfollowed both accounts. Luckily, screenshots were captured.
The account of the small business 'SpiltMilkPress' took one for the team and called Gabbie out on her blatant plagiarism. Found here. Of course, she was blocked. It wasn't long before others (Yasmin Johal) followed and called her out. She was also blocked. Gabbie continued to keep quiet, blocked anyone who mentioned the plagiarism and limited/turned off comments on IG.
Some more instances of her alleged plagiarism:
Her Statement:
On the 30th October, Gabbie released this statement. The artist in question was Monika, yet Monika did not release a statement validating Gabbie's claim. Gabbie also said she was going to take people to court over 'slander'.
Lying About Being Alone in Lockdown & Writing Birthday Cards to Herself:
Made up that she was spending her 2020 birthday alone and sent birthday cards to herself. See her birthday vlog here. At 10 seconds someone opens and closes the door hastily. This was in fact Jane. Gabby was hiding the fact that Jane was there after gaining sympathy online about spending her birthday alone in lockdown. Gabby showed a bunch of birthday cards that she'd received and you can see she has written it to herself judging by the 'To Gabriella' handwriting. See this post here for screenshots.
Hating Men:
Gabbie has made it extremely obvious on social media over the years how much she despises men
Her hatred of people who are mothers
In the fall of 2022, Gabbie made this response to a Tik Tok saying when people say they’re more tired with kids than people who don’t have them:
She also made this nasty comment on Twitter before deleting it:
Cats
She has a cat called Nellie. He was born on the 11th December 2015 and is a British Shorthair, bought from a dodgy breeder. Gabbie was originally getting two kittens, one girl (she called Miley) and one boy - but the girl kitten had to be put down due to a heart murmur before she collected them. Although Nellie is a male cat, his full name is Penelope for some reason. Also goes by Nelbobs or Nelson. Previous names have included Tinkerbell, Tinky, Spencer, Eric and Roger. He is severely obese and is fed way too much tuna.
Her family used to have a cat called Lily (full name Tiger Lily). She died.
In 2016, Gabbie bought a cat for her brother George as a gift. Although the cat was for George, she claims it's hers. George named the cat Leo. Gabbie refused to respect this and called the kitten 'Ollie' before changing it to Pikelet and bikey. George still isn't happy about this.
In May 2017, Gabbie decided to get another kitten to keep Nellie company. She called this kitten Jeremy after the character Jeremy Gilbert from The Vampire Diaries, then later on started calling him Bean. He is another British ShorthairShe would post photos and videos of the two cats getting along and sleeping/cuddling with each other. However when Jeremy started peeing everywhere, she soon got fed up and shipped him off to her Mum in Sheffield. She announced that Jeremy had gone on the 17th September 2017. 4 months after getting the cat. In this video, she says that a girl tweeted her saying her kitten did this because he was threatened by the older cat. So she used this as the reason and said that Nellie absolutely hated Jeremy and would always attack him - although she would always post proof of them getting along.
As far as we're concerned, she only has one cat instead of the 4 she always claims she has.
Cat litter hoarding
During lockdown, Gabbie decided instead of taking her dirty cat litter out to the bins, she would hoard it in her flat instead. She showed several bags of dirty cat litter in binbags on her vlog. People were disgusted!
Flouting COVID Rules
Throughout the pandemic, Gabbie has been extremely vocal and judgemental on social media about those who go outside and mingle with people, as well as taking unessential trips. Normally, this would be totally acceptable to judge. However, she has taken many unessential trips - including travelling up and down the country. She proudly stated on IG that she hasn't seen anyone besides her mum since January 2020. This was a big fat lie of course.
Here are some examples:

Her brother George's disgusting tweets
At the start of 2022, Tattlers discovered Gabbie's brother George had a history of disgusting tweets. They were posted on Tattle and within approximately 30 mins - 1 hour, his Twitter was made private and then deleted. Tattlers take this as proof that he or Gabbie reads her Tattle thread regularly.
Trigger warning: racism/rape
Weird food and drink habits
Our hamsexual queen would never leave the house without a packet of ham and famously loves her ready meals, snacks and tinned soups as much as a cupboard full of 10 different kinds of cereal and her daily Starbucks drink.

Eeshan
Eeshan's first appearance was around 2014, when she called him her boyfriend in a comment she left on a picture of him on his Instagram. There was lots of speculation at the time that the pictures he used on social media weren't actually him.
His second appearance was in 2019, when she once again claimed to be dating him. As far as we know, they've never actually met in person to this day. They had plans to see each other on her 25th birthday in London which she revealed via a passive-aggressive clapback at someone who asked if she'd spend the day with Jane. This led to the famous "my boyfriend had an emergency cricket match" excuse when she was caught by a fan in London with Jane on her birthday instead. She would later call Eeshan a catfish and not mention him again for years, until a conversation was discovered in the What I Will Say discord group, where she said that he asked her how lesbians have sex which she said she explained to him. He would then text her to proudly admit he masturbates to the mental image of her having sex with a woman and says it's her fault. In the same conversation, she refers to him as her "straight male friend of 8 years". There is no conclusive proof as to when this text exchange with Eeshan actually happened.
