I'm a mum blogger & sick trolls reported me to social services for CHILD ABUSE…my man got quizzed on me being a ‘druggy'
Brittany Miller, 29, who is mother to identical twins, Elijah and Emiliano, 11 months, who are soon to be celebrating their first birthday in just days time, explained that an anonymous hater had recently accused her of child abuse.

Not only this, but Brittany's partner Ash, who is the father of their twins, was even quizzed on her being an alcoholic and a ' druggy.'
Opening up about the horrendous ordeal, the content creator took to social media and shared a raw, emotional clip, leaving many horrified.
She acknowledged that someone reported her to social services, not only accusing her of child abuse, but holding her responsible for 'lots of things.'
The mum-of-two confirmed that she 'got questioned about everything' and was 'really upset' when she spoke to them on the phone, so much so that she 'kept having to pause' because she was crying so much.
She recognised: 'Obviously the phone call ended with no further action - they straight away shut it all down, but the fact I even had to go through that...'
The influencer, who recently caused controversy over feeing her babies breakfast that trolls thought could 'get stuck' in their throats, continued:
'People are so desperate for my downfall and bringing me down, but bringing my children into it is ludicrous - why would you want to do that to them, innocent babies?
'Do what you want to me, whatever, but to them, innocent children who are clearly very happy and healthy babies, that's crazy, you're an actual weirdo, you're an actual loser.'
Brittany claimed that Ash was 'questioned' and asked if he had any 'concerns' about her being an alcoholic or a 'druggy.'
The influencer claimed that as expected, her partner told her he 'spoke highly' of her and 'told them the truth.'
I was reported to social services for sharing the reality of being a council house mum on benefits, the police turned up
Despite being clearly upset about the situation, Brittany told trolls to 'make all the reports you want' as she confidently claimed haters would 'not get anywhere.'
The brunette highlighted that her 'happy, healthy babies' are 'thriving' and are not only 'very well looked after' but are most certainly 'not in any danger.'
Bringing my children into it is ludicrous - why would you want to do that to them, innocent babies?

Admitting to being 'taken back' by it all, Brittany continued: 'Never in a million years did I think I'd have to go through something like this - obviously, I'm in the spotlight, I get millions of views every video, I get it, there's nasty people out there, I understand that.
'I just think, how cruel can you actually be? So, so cruel.'
What happens when a parent is reported to social services?
When someone is reported, information about the parent is passed on to social services through a referral.
A social worker will then arrange a visit to the address to see if the information given is true and what they can do to help.
Within one working day of a concern being reported, a social worker should make the decision about what sort of investigation is needed.
There are two types of investigation that a social worker can choose to implement in this situation, under the Children's Act 1989.
A "child in need" assessment under section 17 of the 1989 act will identify the needs of the child and ensure that the family are given the appropriate support in enabling them to safeguard and promote the child's welfare.
A section 47 investigation is where there is reasonable cause to suspect that a child is suffering or likely to suffer significant harm.
This type of investigation can be undertaken by the police, a social care worker, or both.
If a referral is made to social services, they have an obligation to safeguard any children at the heart of any referral and ensure their safety and wellbeing.
There is a fear for many parents that their children will be removed, but this isn't necessary unless they believe the child faces an immediate risk of harm.
How to contact social services in the UK
There are a number of different ways to contact social services in the UK.
The best way is to go to your local authority's website to find the correct telephone and email contact number.
They may even have a form you can fill in and submit.
For child protection concerns you should dial 999 if it's an emergency, or contact the children and family services.
An out of hours contact should also be available.
The NHS website provides links to family action, and other ways of contacting social services include NSPCC and Childline.
There is also help on gov.uk, in which someone can enter their details to apply for a care assessment from social services.
Social media users react
The TikTok clip, which was posted on Brittany's official page @ brittanyhmiller, has clearly left many gobsmacked, as in three days, it has quickly gone viral and racked up 4.3 million views, 332,500 likes and 2,613 comments.
Social media users were 'appalled' that Brittany had been reported to social services and many eagerly rushed to the comments to share messages of love and support.
You're doing amazing with your beautiful boys. Don't worry about them, they are jealous
TikTok user
One person said: 'People are so horrible. Brittany, you're a GREAT mum.'
Another added: 'So while social services were concentrating on you, some little one could be saved from real child abuse…..these people have no life of their own and are wasting resources.'
A third commented: 'This is actually appalling. People may not like you but to do something that affects two very happy and loved babies is vile. People need to actually get a life.'
Meanwhile, someone else chimed in and wrote: 'You're doing amazing with your beautiful boys. Don't worry about them, they are jealous.'
Whilst another fan penned: 'Brittany, I am so sorry you went through that. Even false, it's still stressful.'

Flares thrown during protest outside Canary Wharf hotel housing asylum seekers
Flares have been let off and an arrest made during a demonstration outside a hotel used to accommodate asylum seekers in London. A mixture of men wearing face masks and families with children waved flags and listened to speeches outside the Britannia International Hotel in Canary Wharf on Sunday. Protesters jeered at people going in and out of the hotel, and officers were forced to step in after flares were let off in the crowd, the Metropolitan Police said. A man was arrested on suspicion of assaulting an emergency worker after an officer was pushed. Onlookers chanted 'shame' towards the police as he was carried away. Tourists, shoppers and guests at a nearby hotel stopped to take pictures of the demonstration. A spokesperson for the Met said: 'At one point, officers intervened after flares were let off in the crowd. Several people were searched. No further flares were found. 'One man was arrested on suspicion of assaulting an emergency worker after an officer was pushed. He was taken into custody. 'Officers remain in the area to provide reassurance to local residents and businesses, to ensure that any further protest takes place peacefully, and to respond to any incidents.' It is the latest in a series of demonstrations over the use of hotels to house asylum seekers. On Saturday, the force made nine arrests after rival groups gathered outside the Thistle City Barbican Hotel in Islington, north London. A protest and counter-protest also took place outside the New Bridge Hotel in Newcastle and four people were arrested on suspicion of public order offences, Northumbria Police said. Scotland Yard said plans were in place to 'respond to any protest activity in the vicinity of other hotels in London being used to accommodate asylum seekers'. Elsewhere, Essex Police placed a number of restrictions on a planned protest in Epping on Sunday evening. The force ordered that the demonstration should finish by 8.30pm and must take place in designated areas outside the Bell Hotel, which has been the focus of a series of protests over the last few weeks. Police have also placed requirements on the removal of face coverings until 3am on Monday and have the power to direct anyone committing or suspected of committing anti-social behaviour to leave the area until 8am on Monday.

Watford FC diversity officer screamed ‘go back to your country' to TfL employee
A championship football club's diversity officer screamed 'go back to your country' during a fight, a court heard. Ebonnie-Rose John-Jules was the equality, diversity and inclusion officer for Watford FC 's Community Sports & Education Trust at the time of a violent confrontation with railway staff in London. The 23-year-old was travelling with her friend on May 5 last year at about 6.30pm when they became embroiled in a row with Sasha Da Cunha, a Transport for London (TfL) employee, who was aided by her colleague, Tom Kakeeto. Mr Kakeeto had just finished his shift at Southall station and was on his way home, prosecutor Tom Heslop told City of London magistrates' court. The prosecutor said that Mr Kakeeto heard 'a verbal altercation' between his colleague and John-Jules and her friend, 23-year-old Naomi Caruana – also a defendant, and that he intervened, asking them 'to be civil'. However, the court heard that John-Jules removed her earrings before launching into an attack on Mr Kakeeto, punching him in the face on the railway concourse, the Daily Mail reported. Mr Heslop said: 'They are both attacking him, with the majority of the assault carried out by Caruana, but it did begin with John-Jules. 'Comments were made during this by John-Jules towards Ms Da Cunha, including: 'Go back to your country, you bloody Indians.' 'She also says 'I will not leave the station until I see him bleeding' and reference is also made to 'go back' and 'f---ing Indians',' Mr Heslop said of the 'unprovoked' attack. John-Jules had denied the charges against her for over a year, but on the day of her trial pleaded guilty to assaulting Mr Kakeeto, as well as a count of racially aggravated threatening behaviour. The court heard John-Jules graduated from the University of East London with a degree in sports physical education and development, has a Master's degree in international sports management from the Global Institute of Sport, and has a previous conviction in 2022 for threatening behaviour. 'A shock to be attacked like that' In his victim impact statement, Mr Kakeeto said: 'During the incident I was scared and fearful. It was a shock to be attacked like that and uncalled for. 'I do not wear my uniform to and from work anymore so I am not recognised and it has knocked my confidence.' John-Jules, of Southhall, began working in her full-time role at Watford FC in April last year, just weeks before the attack on Mr Kakeeto took place. She was bailed to appear at Westminster magistrates' court on Sept 11 for a pre-sentence report. John-Jules was sentenced to a 12-month community order, which includes 70 hours community service work up to five days of rehabilitation and must pay a £50 fine. Her co-defendant Caruana, of Hounslow, pleaded guilty to assaulting both Mr Kakeeto and Ms Da Cunha and also damaging the male victim's EarPods. Caruana was also ordered to pay a total of £120 compensation to Mr Kakeeto, £50 compensation to Ms Da Cunha, plus £85 costs and a £114 victim surcharge. Watford FC Community Sports & Education Trust said in a statement it had 'zero tolerance for any form of discrimination or violence'. It added that John-Jules failed to disclose the arrest, investigation or proceedings against her, as is required in accordance with company policy. 'Had the trust been made aware, the member of staff would have been suspended as per company policy pending the outcome of the police investigation,' it said. 'Once found guilty, the member of staff would have been instantly dismissed for gross misconduct.'

I wanted a lowkey wedding so didn't bother with a dress or cake, trolls say a broke uni party would look better
A COUPLE who opted for a budget-friendly wedding shared the details of their savvy day. However, not everyone was a fan of the scrimping and saving, with some people comparing the occasion to a "broke uni party". 2 In a TikTok video that amassed over 200,000 views, Amie Barron (@amie_barron) broke down the steps she and her groom took to pinch pennies. With the average wedding costing £200,500, the pair made a conscious effort to cut down on various aspects. Amie joked that some of the extreme measures "would put people in a coma". Veering from tradition The bride decided to opt out of the wedding dress tradition, instead choosing a comfy everyday outfit. "We didn't dress up. We wore flannels, jeans, and boots," she said, sharing a picture with her husband from the big day. Amie and her bridal party also did their own hair and make up for the occasion. And the TikToker joked that she also took her shoes off "as soon as I said 'I do'." While the couple still forked out for a venue for the day, Amie explained that they saved by holding the ceremony and reception in the same room. And the venue in question was the party room at their local library. For the food, the couple decided to skip out on the "fancy meal and fancy cake". I was fuming when I found out the reason my family hadn't RSVP-ed to my wedding - now they're uninvited Amie shared an image of the simple cake they opted for instead, which featured a simple Mr. & Mrs. topper, showing the couple's love for video games and reading. And this passion for gaming also played a major part in the day as the couple went home early to play Fortnite. They did however enjoy some dancing to a playlist Amie made in advance, skipping out on the band or DJ debate. "We didn't want anything big or fancy," she explained, revealing the day went perfectly. However, TikTok users were not sold on the budget-friendly approach. Unimpressed reactions "Seen broke uni parties organised better," wrote one viewer. "Why bother? Just sign the paperwork," pointed out another follower. "Playing Fortnite after your wedding must be the saddest thing I've ever heard," commented a third person. More on weddings Another bride shared how her mother-in-law wore white to her wedding and excluded her from photos "in case it didn't work out". One woman was set on a three-course meal for her wedding but ended up with a fast food buffet of fried chicken. And a monstrosity of a wedding cake that still leaves the bride in tears after paying £300. Plus, tips on how to say no to being a bridesmaid without upsetting the bride. A mother-in-law was slammed by bride for wearing an identical wedding gown. 2
