Her little one chucked it away in the town centre and she cried for 3 days... Good grief!

Does bathing in milk and honey not leave you a bit sticky and mouldy after awhile haha. Perhaps she thinks he's the reincarnation of some random god, perhaps he's the antichrist and we will all worship at his cheesy feet.

Thought I was splashing out at £6 for two

Her interview/story really annoyed me, not to mention she's made her child a bit of a target with its diamonds.

Soubriquet · 02/07/2022 19:56

She’s a little too obsessed with her baby.

She kicked out her now ex partner because he worked nights and when he came in, he would wake up her precious first born.

Come on!

I hope she mellows out otherwise that is going to be one spoilt brat and entitled mother when he reaches school age

”he has a refined pallet” does he now mirror journalist?

She’s also going to be a toxic mother in law

God help his partner when he’s older

teaandtoastwithmarmite · 02/07/2022 20:01

She sounds f-ing nuts. Poor baby

RightOnTheEdge · 02/07/2022 20:01

I feel sorry for him. She's going to be unbearable when he's older.
It made me laugh when she said he'd love flashing shoes but she thinks they are tacky but then gives him a solid gold dummy 🙄😂

TeresaBlue · 02/07/2022 20:01

She had his palm read to find out his favourite colour and what he's into 😂

MuddlingThroughLifeLittleByLittle · 02/07/2022 20:02

I read this. She's going to get a reality check at some point. And more fool the ex for giving her money enabling this. He should just buy what's needed.
Altho in one of the photos hes not in designer trianers so he must have normal clothes too

PutinIsAWarCriminal · 02/07/2022 20:02

Well a couple of days ago a whole family were imprisoned for the abuse and murder of a 5 year old boy. The mum obviously can't afford what she spends, but that's her problem.

ChaToilLeam · 02/07/2022 20:02

Got to be made up! Attention seeking at its finest.

terriblyangryattimes · 02/07/2022 20:02

“I’ve had his palm read four times in the last year which cost me £50 a time because he couldn’t speak and I wanted to know what he was into and what his favourite colour was."

Jesus wept.

Bonjovispjs · 02/07/2022 20:04

Bloody hell, how pathetic, wonder what kind of man he'll turn out to be?🤔

TooBigForMyBoots · 02/07/2022 20:05

That article is a load of shite. I'm a SM on benefits and I can barely afford to fill my children's bath with hot water.

Fair fucks to her for being paid for a made up story, but this is the sort of BS that fuckwits use to "make points" about those on benefits.Hmm

RJnomore1 · 02/07/2022 20:06

She’s not too well is she?

Porthia · 02/07/2022 20:06

If this is true then I think she needs some help.

"I’ll be wearing charity shop clothes while he’s wearing a £50 t-shirt and if I had the choice I would walk around naked so he could wear what he wants.“

But literally no 1 year old “wants” a £50 T shirt do they? I mean mine might have pointed to one with Peppa pig or fireman Sam on it (at like £3 from H&M) but they aren’t going to be desperate for bloody Versace are they!?

I also thought oh wow she is obviously going to be loaded because I couldn’t afford to spend all that but, no, she is on benefits! 🤯

Yes, it’s almost certainly made up isn’t it!

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 02/07/2022 20:10

Such a cute little baby. I love his little palace I wouldn't mind living in there myself. 😂.
Obviously goes without saying though spending that amount of money is (well I'd say ridiculous but "ridiculous" doesn't even come with a billion miles of covering), However that said as long as the money's not coming out of my bank

Bordesleyhills · 02/07/2022 20:11

£1000 on dummy and she’s on benefits ....

berksandbeyond · 02/07/2022 20:12

Bet she's the poster on here who is posting about her friends giving her shit for putting her baby in outlet designer babygrows

ItsSnowJokes · 02/07/2022 20:12

I read this earlier when someone posted it on SM and I was gobsmacked at it. Its like she wants people to benefits bash her and slag her off. No child wants or needs these clothes (maybe a teen wants them) she is just either a Billy bullshitter or she needs some help.

VodselForDinner · 02/07/2022 20:19

Unemployed, on benefits, and has a nanny and this kind of money.

im guessing it’s either made-up drivel, or HMRC are about to have a field day.

Toddlerteaplease · 02/07/2022 20:23

Surely she must have mental
Health issues. The comments scout having bunk beds etc are really not normal . That poor kid. He must be very sticky after those baths.

whataloadabullocks · 02/07/2022 20:24

Her toddler is very cute, so my money is on her hoping he'll be used for adverts or tv/film, and this is a great way to get casting agents to notice him.
