Heres the line up
-Cheryl Cole (Never seen her with her child)
-Vogue Williams (Not sure who she is)
-Rosie Ramsey (Again, Not sure who she is, Gordon Ramseys wife? no?)
-Sam Faiers (LOL)
-Kate Middleton (NOT even a celeb, shes a royal)
-Rochelle Humes (Hmm, I can cope with that)
-Holly Willoughby ( ??? )
-Louise Pentland (Fab)

  • Giovanna Fletcher (Fab)
  • Roxanne Hoyle (Fab)
But again, the last 3 aren't really celebs, they are classed as 'Influencers / Youtubers' but if anyone should get it it should be one of those in my eyes.

Who gets to nominate this list of Mums? Anyone know... just a bit of fun guys don't bite my face of and spit it out 🤨😁😁😁

No idea who gets to nominate but how would anyone know these should be Mum of the year, we don’t see them with their children on a daily basis (or ever), only a few posts on twitter by some of them, certainly not Cheryl (maybe even worst Mum for giving him the name bear).
How about just give it to someone who works their ass off to provide and care for their kids - not a celeb who can afford to put a giant playcentre in their house and swan around on the beach in Mauritius with them.

Not heard of many of those. Sad

What do they have to do to win? Parent their DC?

GeorgieTheGorgeousGoat · 10/03/2019 21:33

I do like Vogue! Blush

Guineapiglet345 · 10/03/2019 21:34

I’m not sure Mum should ever be a competition.

@247mummsy Yes this !!! I have a friend who had breast cancer last year and 4 young children to look after and she still managed to keep her shit together better than me!! I think thats why this stuff annoys me so much...

I think Cheryl could have the edge here because I have never ever seen her child. Someone who keeps their child out of the public eye is good.

PresidentHump · 10/03/2019 21:47

It'll be won by whoever turns up at the ceremony/whoever wants the PR and their photo taken. It's marketing bollocks

onthenaughtystepagain · 10/03/2019 21:48

Kate Middleton and the Willoughby person, the rest are inknown and as irrelevant to me as their lives. How long does she have to be married to be referred to as the D of C?

thedisorganisedmum · 10/03/2019 21:50

what it means is
"who thin down the fastest after giving birth and is flaunting her newly improved slimmer than before toned belly" mummy.

BoomTish · 10/03/2019 21:50

Didn’t Kerry Katona win this a couple of times?

Would hardly call her out as a pinnacle of motherhood.

It’s a pile of shite.

sue51 · 10/03/2019 21:51

Its just a meaningless award. Totally irrelevant to everyone.

Sparklingbrook · 10/03/2019 21:52

Is it like Rear of the Year? Grin

SaucyJack · 10/03/2019 21:57

Katie Price has also won it a few times too BoomTish.

Clearly one need a coke habit and multiple failed relationships to take the edge in this particular contest.

user1473878824 · 10/03/2019 21:57

Of course there are loads of women who could trump them but it’s “celebrity” mum of the year. It’s like complaining you didn’t win a Brit award despite being a PA. also it’s just incredibly eye roll anyway. But I too like Vogue!

Sparklingbrook · 10/03/2019 21:59

So really you could take the Mum bit out and just say which female celebrity is your favourite.
Because we have no idea if they are great Mums or not.

NCforthis2019 · 10/03/2019 22:01

At least we can take comfort in knowing Katie price can’t win again! Blush

No idea who most of those are to be fair.

keepforgettingmyusername · 10/03/2019 22:01

It'll be funny if DoC wins and joins the ranks of Kerry Katona. She'll be advertising Iceland prawn rings next!

trexismyfriend · 10/03/2019 22:02

Will either be Giovanna or Rochelle.

I'll put money on it.

It's actually really insulting imo, these "celeb mums of the year" because how do they relate to us 'normal' mums exactly? Are we supposed to applaud them for raising children as celebrities and give them awards for it?

Crock of shit.

NaughtToThreeSadOnions · 10/03/2019 22:10

Sorry but i know most of the nanes but the ones (excluding Giovanna i know who she is) that you think should win.

Just cos you dont know who they are doesnt disqualify them.

Although i'm also not sure who holly ramsey is. Not gordan ramseys wife tjats tanya ramsey

Seren85 · 10/03/2019 22:15

Rosie Ramsey is Chris Ramsey's wife (he's a comedian/presenter). Anyway the whole concept is ridiculous.

ZippyBungleandGeorge · 10/03/2019 22:22

Katie price is a previous winner, that should tell you all you need to know about this award.

247mummsy · 10/03/2019 22:30

HJWT Gosh you’re friend sounds like super woman, hope she’s ok now.

247mummsy · 10/03/2019 22:31

**She'll be advertising Iceland prawn rings next! 🤣🤣

CouldntThink · 10/03/2019 22:42

It’s all a load of bollocks, FFS I mean Kerry Katona won. Hmm

TurquoiseDress · 10/03/2019 22:45

YANBU

It's all a load of bollocks
