To be fed up of Instamums

Hmmmmx100 · 25/08/2017 22:56

I followed a few of the more well-known Instamums but got weary of the constant daily barrage of brand endorsements. I can't relate to people on £100k a year in Farrow & Ball houses. I just can't. So I had to unfollow em all, every one. AIBU to feel a bit miffed that these people are using the idea of sisterhood to make money? They're not our friends, they're just there to sell us stuff that we probably don't need anyway.

Who's the one with 11 kids?

Fluffypinkpyjamas · 01/09/2017 19:22

There's also a 'donate' button on the blog

Who is this CF? stealing from foods banks basically. Awful!

CourtneyLoveIsMySpiritAnimal · 01/09/2017 19:27

They have to many children Wink

Fluffypinkpyjamas · 01/09/2017 19:31

Ah thank you Courtney that reminds me of the old blind gossip threads and oh how I miss them!

Boredboredboredboredbored · 01/09/2017 19:38

There's 12 kids not 11. A donate button Shockblimey I wonder if people actually donate? Confused

Lazy2Hazy · 01/09/2017 19:38

StillStayingClassySanDiego · 01/09/2017 19:41

You love it or hate it?

Mothervulva · 01/09/2017 19:43

Fluffypinkpyjamas · 01/09/2017 19:45

Lazy2Hazy · 01/09/2017 19:45

FrostedFlaakes · 01/09/2017 19:50

Dozyoldtwonk · 01/09/2017 19:50

Lazy I think a lot of posters (me included) just find it all fascinating.

FrostedFlaakes · 01/09/2017 19:53

Wow.

To be fed up of Instamums
Cococrumble · 01/09/2017 20:08

Fucking hell thats disgusting. What a cheek!!

BubbleAnimal · 01/09/2017 20:14

So where is the father of the 12 kids?

StillStayingClassySanDiego · 01/09/2017 20:15

Who is the mum with the big family?

wannabestressfree · 01/09/2017 20:17

I am not standing up for her as I agree but it's the same with mumsnet. She is fairly transparent there so you know who you are donating too. People can make a choice.

One of the people mentioned on here was really unpleasant to me and unleashed her minions because I misunderstood a post (I took it literally) it echoed of being back at school and Instagram was/ is somewhere I felt quite happy. Made me think.... and block. All is not what it seems with some people.

Elephantsahoy · 01/09/2017 20:18

Was that MOD, wanna?

PforPhoebeHforhoebe · 01/09/2017 20:21

Just scrolled through her insta and judging by her house it doesn't strike me as struggling food bank user. It looks much better than mine (hard working mum of 1!)

yummycake123 · 01/09/2017 20:28

I'm still like this Shock at the donate button... Wow.

StillStayingClassySanDiego · 01/09/2017 20:31

I'm a nosy twat, can someone on me if they don't want to name the mum with all the kids.

StillStayingClassySanDiego · 01/09/2017 20:32

*pm

Mothervulva · 01/09/2017 20:42

Pm ed you.

Fairylea · 01/09/2017 20:45

To be honest MoD must be incredibly naive to put both her address and house on public display - it's super easy to find it, I won't give the link or tell you how I did it but you literally have to just google two things! I wouldn't want people knowing my address, when I was home alone or on holiday. Confused

wannabestressfree · 01/09/2017 20:49

@Elephantsahoy no it wasn't. Will pm you when I get a mo.
