To think YouTube should do something about the Ingham family

Basically the dad has been accused of grooming teenage fans on Snapchat. Pretty conclusive evidence but they have just ingored it in their daily videos more information here on it all if you want to read more.

Shouldn't YouTube do something about this? They are ignoring it all and carrying on as if nothing has happened

Did you join MN to start a thread about your thread on another forum? Weird.

No I've just name changed, it's not my thread but there are injunctions so only a few papers have published the story that has been happening for weeks and they have disabled all comments

Can you just summarise instead of sending to different chat sites?

Sure, several girls have come forward saying he sent them snap chats asking to get naked and go skinny dipping. He's just ingored it all despite the mounting evidence and continued putting out daily videos.

The one girl that he's supposedly had sex with was 16 so the police aren't investing. But still he is ignoring all the evidence from several girls that have photos and texts that show his guilt.

Is that short enough? It's time YouTube did something i think!

So if you know there are injunctions around this case preventing it from being discussed, why are you publising it and opening it up for discussion?

You are wrong

Which is why this kind of thing can be so damaging and have had solicitors involved

It wasn't 'snapchat'

Sarah the mum must not believe it as she’s just announced she’s pregnant again and they’ve been trying since last year. Either that or she’s turning a blind eye as not to upset the “happy family” brand they’ve got going on.

Atetoomanyjaffacakes · 10/08/2018 15:21

It's all very bizarre

SavannahSky · 10/08/2018 15:23

It was as weeks ago. Surprised op is posting this no tbh. It all died down a while ago

worriedupstairsneighbour · 10/08/2018 15:23

@SavannahSky yes, some of it was on snapchat. Some of the girls that came forward posted screenshots from a written conversation they had on snapchat with him in which he was asking a girl to meet with him at 2am and then another Snapchat threatening her for telling people

worriedupstairsneighbour · 10/08/2018 15:25

It's come up again because Alfie Deyes ( popular YouTuber ) tweeted about it yesterday and now more people are aware.

I think it's disgusting they are still allowed to publish videos and monetise from them using click bait titles that sound as if they are linked to this story. They've not addressed it atall, sold their house, moved away and blocked anyone who brought it up on Twitter.

Chris went and unliked all the photos of underage girls he'd liked on Instagram and they're just trying to ignore it.

Awful family. Did you see their Christmas video with literally hundreds of presents. (I know some were probably marketing stuff, but still)

Not surprised she's pregnant - more material to post about (along with A Saccone-Joly and Louise Pentland) how may kids are they going to expolited have??

As for Idiot Ingham, well he's an uneducated moron who still plays out with his skateboard. AND HE'S GINGER but dies his strange hair and eyebrows black.

Andtheresaw · 10/08/2018 15:52

Debby is that you?

Lindalee3 · 10/08/2018 15:55

What a bizarre thread. Confused

SavannahSky · 10/08/2018 16:12

So what's actually wrong with ginger hair? 🤷‍♀️

This Ingham Family are out of control, the husband is accused of being a groomer after sending many inappropriate messages/meeting up with young fans, but it has just got worse, unbelievably.
Now they have been quite deliberately deceptive in refunding donations they raised from their fans as the charity refused to accept the funds due to the grooming allegations. The Inghams have tried to blame the charity which is despicable.
What a shambles of a family, I can’t stand the way they exploit their kids, plus they are having a baby, just for the views!! Wish YT would step up.

Paddingtonthebear · 20/09/2018 23:34

Well I have no idea who you are even talking about Confused

WhatIsThisTomfoolery · 20/09/2018 23:39

how do you know they are 'having a baby just for the views'??

you don't......so you are making up shit

Miladymilord · 20/09/2018 23:42

If you have no clue who these people are, this thread is batshit.

CCRRCCZZ · 21/09/2018 06:52

That’s OK you don’t have to view this thread then.
There’s plenty of people who do know who they are and who are annoyed at what’s going on

CCRRCCZZ · 21/09/2018 06:56

Obvious that as their views are falling they need to keep driving new news into their little lives, the Mum Sarah admitted she wasn’t fully convinced about baby no4, but they saw Family Fizz have another baby and views went thru the roof, so they jumped on the sand bandwagon.
I just think it’s so unacceptable that they basically sell their children’s lives for financial gain and their kids don’t realkt have a say in the matter.
