What's going on with Marthas eyes? Such a beautiful girl but appears to have black eyes. And no you don't need wine you will get an #adultheadache, it's just tea and bath time. Do people drink every day to get through teatime? Is that actually a thing.

MarshaBradyo · 11/04/2018 19:33

I keep seeing this at the top of TIO and wondering who is Martha?

CadyHeron · 11/04/2018 20:59

Same sofia- said pages ago this is what it was all about all along dressed up as faux concern

CadyHeron · 11/04/2018 21:07

Sofia - also the "do people have to drink every day to get through teatime' bit? Grin I'd love to be of the mindset that I believe absolutely everything I see out there on social media as gospel truth. Life most be so simple. Always wondered if anyone really did think that stuff like soaps were real, this thread shows it's more than possible Smile bit of a fascinating insight.

Mumofkids · 11/04/2018 21:13

@cadyheron strange thing is, if you follow them or watch stories, they do seem to drink every day. As you said, it isn't staged, so how do they do it? I'd be asleep. It's a shame you missed the humour, but that was inevitable.
What do you think of MOD's new teeth? I kind of miss her original look. Made her, her.

Babaloo88 · 11/04/2018 21:15

The veneers are abit erm....strange. I wonder if she’d still have them done if she wasn’t ‘instafamous’

@FlyingBird do you really think these threads have had that effect? Or is it concern that if ASA did look into them then there could be potential problems with hidden ads? I do struggle to believe that a conversation on mumsnet really has that reach, Instagram is massive.
I follow some Americans and one was talking today about learning her trade and now it is a full time job, but I never noticed any ads (🤦🏻‍♀️) she has a feed full of children, including babies.
Another thing that strikes me as do weird and relates to the 'feeling you know someone' is I follow 4 accounts which during the time I've followed them, have had children die. In my normal life I've only come across it twice in 19 years, it's so sad and heartbreaking following people/families and a tradegy unfolding. Has anyone else had that or is it just the accounts I've randomly followed?

Mumofkids · 11/04/2018 21:22

@babaloo88 I know a bit Scarlett moffat/Katie Price. Maybe they'll settle down. Her teeth were lovely.

Mumofkids · 11/04/2018 21:24

(I do get hating something about yourself- I had teeth issues and had braces in my 30's, but veneers are such a big step)

HolyMountain · 11/04/2018 21:29

FoD is becoming rather obsessive with his filming of the twins , he’s a bit Jonathan Joly(sp) like.

Sofialemon · 11/04/2018 21:34

@CadyHeron

Mostly on here they go on about how fake the instamums accounts are, but then if it's something they can disapprove of, like drinking too often, they believe it. Tbh I haven't noticed Martha or other instamums drinking at home very much.

I'm amazed Martha's gifted, very expensive Amtico herringbone flooring hasn't been commented on.

Mumofkids · 11/04/2018 21:52

@holymountain he manages to get them looking constantly bewildered! It's quite an art!

SpringSprangSprung · 11/04/2018 22:14

Who is Martha? Has MoD had veneers? Does FoD make everyone cringe? So many questions!

Sofialemon · 11/04/2018 22:26

Martha is Marthashappilyeverafter. I haven't seen a post by MOD saying exactly what she's had done, but may have missed it, her teeth do look different. I find FOD annoying.

Mumofkids · 11/04/2018 22:27

Mrlmeldrum's post Grin the dark side of fame!

HolyMountain · 11/04/2018 22:30

He’s currently talking in a Steve Urwin/ Aussie David Attenborough voice then his dd bite his finger.

Why?

Mumofkids · 11/04/2018 22:31

@springsprangsprung yep @marthashappilyeverafter was such a lovely account and beautiful family but changed quite a bit as monetised, she's quirky and funny.
@MOD's teeth, 9 injections yesterday and she has different teeth.
@FOD I think an unfollow on the cards soon, so annoying! Not sure insta-confidence has worked for him.

HolyMountain · 11/04/2018 22:31

He actually put his finger so close to her mouth she must have thought “take that you silly bugger”

Mumofkids · 11/04/2018 22:39

@holymountain he's about as calm at settling kids for bed as my husband... he definitely seems more nuts when Clemmie's not there. I seem to watch unsure, not quite funny, but weird, why? Maybe your right, he's not outnumbered, he's outwitted by these toddlers just going wtf?

He isn’t funny at all. Makes me cringe I find it so so odd. It makes me feel sad the twins just look at him in complete bewilderment. Have unfollowed as was thinking what the hell am I doing watching this! Precious life used up that I will never get back!

cannotchange · 11/04/2018 22:49

Always think twins are bordering on being feral and rather inappropriate in his post comparing putting socks on toddlers with porn stars putting on condoms ????

langkaw · 11/04/2018 22:52

@cannotchange I think fod struggles with similes and metaphors. He gets a bit desperate and tends to work overwrite his script.

I wonder how many takes that performance took?

ABuckToothedGirlinLuxembourg · 11/04/2018 22:52

Did he really say that!?!

langkaw · 11/04/2018 22:53

Yes! He certainly did say that!
