I'm a pregnant mum of 4 struggling on UC – we're in a 2-bed but have a new addition… trolls call me ‘neglectful & cruel'
Trolls insisted Nicole's house is "going to stink" after she revealed the new addition to the family
A PREGNANT mum-of-four has been slammed by trolls after revealing they've got a new addition to their family.
Nicole Austin regularly goes viral on social media when she shares a look inside her messy two-bed home - an issue she's been trying to get on top of.

However, she found herself under fire once again after sharing a TikTok video in which she shared the news that the family have a new pet.
"We also have a new addition, a hamster!" Nicole - who has three daughters of nine, eight and six, a two-year-old son and another boy on the way - said in the clip.
Referring to the mess over the floor surrounding the animal's cage, Nicole continued: "That is bedding and hamster stuff all over the floor because I've just cleaned the cage."
But people in the comments section were unimpressed by Nicole's revelation about the new addition, with one writing: "Why the f**k would you get a pet?"
"Wtf was she thinking?" another added.
"Hamsters do actually take up a lot of time, I bet it's left to rot after the fun wears off, especially with a newborn coming.
"The woman is so selfish!"
"If your children have additional needs and you're allowing them to live in this filth then you're an even worse mum of what I thought already," a third sighed.
"Neglectful and cruel! Sort it out."
"Why the f**k have you got a pet in these circumstances?" someone else wondered.
"You don't deserve kids or pets," another cruelly commented.
"Your house is gonna STINK with a hamster cage you don't even clean your own home never mind their cage!" someone else said.
As another wrote: "Can't afford the kids she's got but throws a pet in to the mix!
"Stop expecting social media to fund your life."
Elsewhere in the video, Nicole explained that however hard she works to get her "tiny" two-bedroom house into shape, she always feels like she's "drowning".
"I never feel like the house is good enough," she sighed.
"Even when it is all tidy, it doesn't feel tidy. We don't have the money to get all the storage stuff.
"And I need to also be saving for a car. How do people find the money?
"And how do people manage on a low-income household doing all these things?
"You guys can hate me all you like, but I really really need your advice."
Predicting that people were going to respond telling her to get a job, Nicole added: "I'm working really hard to improve my social media so I can earn more money.
"And I'm always on the lookout for jobs for myself.
"Although I don't know how I'd manage a full-time social media career, a job and all my kids' appointments too.
"Life's so hard."
"I'm struggling so bad to just keep on top of everything financially!" Nicole wrote in the video caption.
"I don't know how people do it!
"This world is so expensive and trying to get a car after you've had kids is wild."

Carl Williams' daughter doesn't look like this anymore! Infamous gangster's only child Dhakota is unrecognisable as she enjoys European holiday
The daughter of notorious underworld figure Carl Williams is currently enjoying a fun summer holiday in Europe. Dhakota Williams shared a series of posts to Instagram as she soaked up the sun in Italy before relaxing in Greece. The 24-year-old looked worlds away from her younger years in the spotlight as she showed off her natural beauty and fuller lips while posing for a several selfies. In one image, Dhakota put on a busty display as she stretched her body on a towel while relaxing in Taormina, Sicily. The Gangland heiress also posted a second video to her Instagram on Tuesday after arriving in Mykonos. She flaunted her figure in a white bikini as she soaked up the sun on a poolside bed. Dhakota was nine years old when her drug kingpin father Carl was bludgeoned to death at Barwon Prison by fellow inmate Matthew Charles Johnson in 2010. Once dubbed the 'Baby Faced Killer,' Williams was jailed for 35 years in 2007 for ordering the murders of three rivals, and more time for conspiring to kill a fourth. In 2022, Dhakota and her mother Roberta joined OnlyFans after revealing their reputations made it difficult to find a 'normal' job. Dhakota also said at the time that her late father would be proud of her signing up to the adult subscription site. 'Is your dad rolling in his grave that you do OnlyFans?' one of her followers asked during an Instagram Q&A. The socialite responded that her infamous dad 'would be so proud of me for being successful and supportive of any path I choose to take'. 'He was very big on doing whatever makes you happy and if you've got it, flaunt it,' she added.

The pair told The Daily Telegraph they had 'no choice' due to their infamous history. The family was thrust into the attention of mainstream Australia after the lead character in the original season of the crime series Underbelly, played by Gyton Grantley, was based on Carl Williams. The series followed the bloody gangland wars which rocked Melbourne in the late 1990s and early 2000s.

CHRISTOPHER STEVENS reviews Tommy: The Good, The Bad, The Fury... and asks why we need five hours of this spectacularly dense reality star
Tommy: The Good. The Bad. The Fury (BBC3) 'Who the hell,' wondered reality star Tommy Fury in the barber's chair, 'is interested in me getting my hair cut?' This, the sole (and probably accidental) instance of self-awareness from the 26-year-old part-time boxer during Tommy: The Good. The Bad. The Fury, sums up everything that is depressing and baffling about television in the social media age. This 10-part documentary follows Tommy around his soulless Cheshire mansion, goes motoring with him in his flash cars, and hangs around at the gym while he trains for his next fight. Why the Beeb thinks anyone, even on its backwater 'yoof' channel BBC3, needs five hours of Tommy is beyond comprehension. Ella Al-Shamahi, in her BBC2 archaeology series Human last month, managed to cover the entire prehistory of our species in that time. The younger brother of former heavyweight boxing champion Tyson Fury, he is spectacularly dense. Joey Essex, the boy who elevated stupidity into a performance art, is an intellectual compared to Tommy. He has published his autobiography, of course. Whether he's read it is less certain. Boasting about its sales, he declared the 'auto-book' was doing especially well. He means 'audio book'. Signing photos of himself in younger days for fans, he asked his manager Jake, 'Why don't I look like that any more?' Jake fumbled for a diplomatic answer, and tried a metaphor that Tommy might understand: 'You've had a lot of fights since then — puts miles on the clock. Does your car still look the same as when you bought it?' Tommy pouted: 'Does when it's clean.' The footage has been edited to present him in the best possible light, but his vanity cannot be concealed from the camera. He's evidently touchy about any criticism. When his on-off girlfriend Molly-Mae Hague suggested over breakfast that his pullover looked 'a bit girly', he bristled: 'Why are you throwing insults at 8.30 in the morning about my jumper?' The couple, who met on ITV's Love Island and have a toddler daughter named Bambi, separated last year, though they now appear to have reconciled. Tommy is seen holding his daughter Bambi in a scene from his documentary Tommy denies rumours that he was unfaithful, but admits his heavy drinking drove Molly-Mae away. 'I hold my hands up,' he said, 'drink got a hold of me — 20 shots a night, 20 beers. I used to drink to get black-out drunk.' He blames a hand injury that kept him out of the boxing ring. He drank, he says, to simulate the buzz of fighting. As he returns to training, the implication is that he's kicked the booze — but he did not talk about how he did that, or whether he intends to stay on the wagon. More openness about his drink problem could have given this documentary some value. Instead, we're left watching a vacuous young man getting a haircut. And as even he knows, nobody's interested in that.

Tamar Braxton 'almost died' in horror accident that left her with 'broken nose' and 'lost teeth'
On Tuesday, Tamar Braxton revealed she suffered a shocking, near-death experience on Sunday. 'I struggled to write this but everyone keeps calling me and honestly, I can't even really talk anymore I'm so weak,' the 48-year-old presenter-singer-actor announced via Instastory. 'I almost died Sunday.' Tamar isn't sure exactly 'what happened' to her, but a friend discovered her lying 'in a pool of blood' with a facial injury. 'As the days go by, the worse it is,' Braxton lamented. 'I fractured my nose, lost some teeth, and mobility. The way I look at life now is totally different. As my health is on the mend, my mental journey begins. Pray for me for real.' The four-time Grammy nominee - who boasts 9.7M social media followers - also shared a passage from Proverbs 31 about strong women, and she thanked God 'for waking me up today.' It's unclear whether Tamar will recover in time to perform her next scheduled gig at FunkFest, which will be held at Wolf Creek Amphitheater in South Fulton, GA on September 27. Trey Songz, Ashanti, Young Dro, Youngbloodz, and Ro James are slated to headline the same concert. Maryland-born Braxton is mother to 12-year-old son Logan Vincent Herbert from her eight-year marriage to second ex-husband Vincent Herbert, which ended in 2019. The Fashion Nova brand ambassador is the youngest member of R&B girl group The Braxtons formed in 1989 with her sisters Trina, Towanda, Toni, and Traci - who passed away, at age 50, in 2022 from esophageal cancer. That same year, Toni underwent major heart surgery to install a coronary stent. The 57-year-old Un-Break My Heart belter is by far the most successful of her sisters, having won seven Grammy Awards and sold over 70M records worldwide. The talented quintet have dropped two studio albums So Many Ways (1996) and Braxton Family Christmas (2015), but it's unclear if We TV will be renewing their family reality show The Braxtons for a second season. Tamar scored her very own We TV spin-off series Tamar & Vince with her 53-year-old record exec ex, which aired from 2012-2017. Braxton lamented: As the days go by, the worse it is.

The two-time Daytime Emmy Award nominee currently hosts the investigative relationship series Caught in the Act: Double Life, which airs Tuesdays on MTV. Tamar - who gets 729K monthly listeners on Spotify - has released five solo studio albums since 2000, including Love and War, which reached the No. 2 position on the US Billboard 200 chart in 2013.
