Btw white ignorance is racial bias and racism. We all make errors but this is bigger than that. CH refuses to do the work (anti-racism) as so many others do, not being racist is not enough (clearly by her comment(s) on that site)

I totally agree, as a white person who was married to a black man for 20 years. I thought I understood racism through my experiences as coming to this country as an Eastern European as a child. I had no idea. None at all. What I did realise though is that white privilege is real.

I'm not concerned about myself. I only registered yesterday on Tattle Life as you need an account to view anything embedded. However I am still unclear as to what led up to this. Apparently she was banned after her Tattle account had posted from St Lucia (as determined from the IP address). Unless she had posted comments specifically from St Lucia on Tattle Life what would have prompted.a concern to cross reference the IP address against her account wrt the comment about her only visiting Devon? I guess there was a weight of suspicion already re the account and that info provided the confirmation? It's wierdly compelling. Shes clearly very misguided and lacking in adult levels of judgement. This is too much to recover from surely? She has zero credibility now. And I understand its been referred to the NMC. I really cant see them viewing this favourably.

I reckon there'll be more revelations in this saga.

Interested in this thread?

Then you might like threads about this subject:

FOD is back like nothing happened.

legoiseverywhere · 11/11/2019 21:06

Wow...

mustangsly · 11/11/2019 21:08

Fucking hell.

But then what did we expect? They've got private school fees to pay.

HyperHippo · 11/11/2019 21:11

FOD's post is tactical... hair and themed. Nothing to do with exposing his daughters and not an ad.. just fun like he said! Trying to come back light and 'fun' so he can drop in ads later.
To be fair I can understand him getting on with it.

ComeBackPeterComeBackPaul · 11/11/2019 21:13

...... "this has impacted our family and it will take some time to recover." Yep, 48 hours, so it seems. What a thoughtless, crass, insulting comeback to this situation. I hope no self-respecting advertiser will ever touch you again after this. At least your wife was right about one thing - you.

Tooearlyforcrackers · 11/11/2019 21:13

The comments! Where do these people come from?!

Sagradafamiliar · 11/11/2019 21:21

If it was an ad, I would kind of understand that he needed to fulfil a work commitment, but a 'hilarious' video about bloody bobbles...he's actually taken the time to put that together to show how 'funny' he is. Cringing.

PeterRouseTheFleshofMankind · 11/11/2019 21:27

The people commenting on his latest post, as if nothing has happened, I just can't figure it out? Has the whole thing just passed them by, do they just not care, are they just thick as mince, are they still just desperate for their comment to get noticed and liked?

Who are these idiots?!

ComeBackPeterComeBackPaul · 11/11/2019 21:29

I can't begin to imagine how this will play out to the people his wife abused on Tattle. It's two fingers to them and the Hoopers just don't give a f@#k.What disgraceful people they are - and what a message to their daughters.

legoiseverywhere · 11/11/2019 21:31

At least your wife was right about one thing - you.

Do people actually believe that C knew nothing about this post or his apology & he is acting alone & not under some strategy pr crisis management?

Skyejuly · 11/11/2019 21:33

He just moans about 'typical issues with women' stuff...

Pitterpatterpettysteps · 11/11/2019 21:34

It’s shameless all the same

legoiseverywhere · 11/11/2019 21:36

Have they no shame? and after being publicly shamed?!

Tooearlyforcrackers · 11/11/2019 21:36

It’s obviously a strategy. Seems like a lack of blue tickers commenting or liking though? I’m flabbergasted at how he can just brazen his way through it like nothing happened.

AppleHEAD · 11/11/2019 21:41

Gosh yes that’s so funny I couldn’t find a hair band today. You’re so funny.
FFS WHO ARE THESE IDIOTS COMMENTING?
Ok people said he would just start again like nothing happened and I said surely not. I KNOW NOTHING!
I wonder which advertisers won’t care about what she’s done?

BelfastNonBlonde · 11/11/2019 21:52

I’d be pretty confident that the vast majority of companies / advertisers won’t give two shits about the whole thing. She’s not the first to balls up and certainly won’t be the last..
Give it a couple of weeks and it’ll be like nothing ever happened.
There’s no such thing as bad press after all.

ComeBackPeterComeBackPaul · 11/11/2019 22:21

Wonder how their respective employers feel about such a tasteless, insulting response. If it is true that people are reporting MoD to the NMC, then this brazen stunt won't help. No remorse - brand Hooper just keeps rolling on.

Atalune · 11/11/2019 22:28

It’s Audacious.

Gross.

noworklifebalance · 11/11/2019 22:42

This has probably been said already... maybe they are all in on the "scandal"? It's got everyone hooked and talking about them

Miljea · 11/11/2019 22:52

I literally have no idea what the chuff is going on here.

Isn't Instagram a place to bung your (better curated 😉) holiday snaps? What's this 'influencer' thing?

Anyway, I'm old and well past this nonsense.

As you were.

stupidis · 11/11/2019 22:53

@noworklifebalance I've actually thought about this. There'd be a lot more traffic to everyone's sites as well as Tattle because of this.

Isn't FOD an international operations director or something? Just give it up and do your day job and be happy for the last few years gravy train

Pannalash · 11/11/2019 23:18

Wow just wow 😲
