Ok so going to start off saying I follow Mrs H and I enjoy her content.

But.... I just find their social media friendship SO annoying... the montages, the reels, the "I love yous". I just find it really annoying.
Like do they only talk about their celeb pals like this is?! What about their other friends?
I don't know, I just feel like all their catch ups turn into a dramatic reels/paragraphs and I don't find it genuine.

Am I alone 🙈

You need to remember that influencing is their job. Somebody who lives nearby, equally popular (can't be arsed to see how many followers each have) and have similar aged children is an easy professional match to make. I don't follow influencers but I know from back when my kids did then being friends with similar people is part of the development plan.

Some people are very gushy online with lots of xxx and love you hun sort of comments. Maybe they actually like each other irl because they are the types who don't find it annoying.

Yabu to think her other content is more genuine. They have cleaners and Pr to keep their content sparkling clean.

Hinch is just annoying In general . Fake and narcissistic. I stopped following her because she sold her soul to insta and has made millions off it.

Ok I'm leaving the thread.

I'm not hear to be called a bitch or have my words blown up.

I'm sat on my own and I just made a thread for a chit chat.

Yeah to slag off other women just for being happy to be friends, it’s bitchy! Glad it hasn’t worked out for you.

what Does that mean, you get to be bitchy about other women if they use social media.

aye.

mathanxiety · 29/04/2023 22:57

It's clearly two businesses that dovetail and the online 'friendship' is designed to bring one individual's followers to the other's site.

Nothing to get worked up about. It's just solid marketing.

AssertiveGertrude · 29/04/2023 22:57

I don’t follow them anymore but you do need tattle 😆

mumsnet is now somewhere you can’t make a comment without a snippy remark

Isn't it all just marketing & positive PR? I'm sure they are actually friends but I mean all the content around that friendship.

Hahah, that made me chuckle. No not jealous 😅

I think it's really normal for people to find celebrities/influencers irritating and that doesn't necessarily stem from jealousy 😅

I think many celebs/influencers are wankers. Very few of them seem normal. Most seem so money-grubbing and deluded.

MelsMoneyTree · 29/04/2023 23:08

You wait all week for a Tattle thread attacking influencers and women in the public eye, and two come along at once. Hmm
I guess Tattle must be struggling for exposure again.

Littleworkaholic · 29/04/2023 23:20

They are just two women making their way in the world, supporting themselves and their families. They aren’t shagging someone’s husband, on the Rob, being racist, committing crimes, or even starting bitchy threads about other women or encouraging others to be bitchy about other women and calling it chit chat. They are just two women doing their rather harmless thing.

HolodayPictures · 29/04/2023 23:22

I have come to the conclusion that those who accuse of jealousy are jealousy people.

They are scammers, I watch agog at them.

As for Stacey the psychopath eyes in the bath yesterday, because her boys wouldn't wash, dry and put away their clothes as she commands. I am surprised she allowed them in the main house to launder their clothes, do they have to cook for themselves in the small Annexe too?

PollyPeptide · 29/04/2023 23:25

I sort of think of them being the same person, really. They're both full of false baloney.

Viviennemary · 29/04/2023 23:28

I don't know why anyone wastes their time listening to these people.

HolodayPictures · 29/04/2023 23:30

Viviennemary · 29/04/2023 23:28

I don't know why anyone wastes their time listening to these people.

I don't click their links or buy anything they sell.

I am chronically ill and sometimes I am bed bound, it's free entertainment once a day. I go onto twitter once a day also and watch agog at people on their too.

@Coffeeandbourbons

Er no love, I'm not naive

Slagging off other women doesn't sit right. They could be mumsnetters themselves.
