The smug vibe she’s giving off lately is intolerable. She says ‘we’re’ but I do believe she’s alone. I detest it when she does that! Once again she’s treating it like it’s a big secret to drive engagement.

Hello new Lemmy friends!
Word on the street tells us our community is regularly making it the all page. While this is very cool news to hear, we can see how the sudden emergence of our posts in your feed might feel jarring and probably raises some questions. And also how, without knowing the backstory, our community might appear less than virtuous, so here’s a very brief introduction which hopefully will clear a few things up.
The woman we’re discussing is a body positive influencer and media personality who has gained fame and wealth by lying, manipulating, exploiting her children for content, plagiarizing BIPOC creators and blaming her BIPOC content editor for it (thereby ruining her career), among other things. Her fraudulent behavior is no different (I’d argue worse) from the likes of Jay Shetty (google him if you don’t know who he is or what he did). She’s the latest in a long line of grifting influencers who are abusing their power, taking advantage of their position and exploiting their followers. The difference is that she’s Canadian. Our laws around social media and advertising aren’t as clear (and where they are she’s disobeyed them), add to that, our mainstream media has protected her from those who’ve tried to expose her grift and silenced/intimidated anyone who’s tried to speak out.
Our Reddit sub was taken down due to reports of copyright infringement, which is unfounded and categorically untrue as no one ever tried to steal her work and pass it off as their own. The mods have made an appeal. While at first glance it may seem like we’re just “shitting on her” the sub has been more devoted to investigation and posting proof of her lies than just bitching for the sake of bitching. The reality is that she’s hurt, manipulated and let down a lot of people. She stole intellectual property and employment, caused mental distress and has repeatedly told lies to boost engagement and profit off her audience, so people are understandably upset that their voices are being silenced.
We’re grateful to have been welcomed so kindly by so many of you, and to those sticking around to watch the drama unfold, we’re glad to have you!

Do people actually respond in excitement about where she's going? Like who goes a fuck. Go home and be a mom
I wonder how her hubs feels about all this travel. Mine travels a good amount (will be away forty days this year) and not going to lie, sometimes i resent it. Like he can do these things because I stay home and hold down the fort. Asking because I know how I feel about it and I wonder if he is truly ok about it. Or maybe he just appreciates the break.
And the fact she leaves and he’s meant to watch after her 3 kids. I know he’s obviously taken on the role of step dad and wouldn’t have married her if he wasn’t ready for that but still, she just leaves with no regard that everyone has to pick up the pieces for her.
Maybe he doesn’t mind but I think it’d piss me off 🤷🏻♀️
She has them all convinced she's very important and super busy doing important things. Sheay regret all this meaningless travel away from her family as she gets older, although I don't think she cares about much but her own instant gratification and external validation. She's gonna be one messed up old lady.
I’ve always wondered about that shared custody arrangement. If I were the other parent I think I would have said something about her being home when the kids are under her care because I know I wouldn’t be so quick to hand my kids off to a step-parent when they are home alone. I’m not throwing shade at step-parents but I don’t think it’s their responsibility.
I believe her kids are with their dad this week aren’t they? They left on Sunday so I assumed it was their dad week.
I share custody too and I 1000% agree with what you said here.
They don’t do week on/week off. They split the week. When I first followed her it was Wednesday afternoon - Sunday around noon for her
And the house renovations, the cottage, poor husband!
Such a good point! Obviously it’s his life too but she just drops everything and expects Shane and NK to pick up the pieces. Yet you RARELY see him go off to be with friends, his family, a trip by himself.
Being apart so much strains any relationship, and it's hard enough when it's for work. 90% of her solo jaunts are 100% more entertainment than work. Calling what she does "work" is a joke and an insult to people who actually work.
