An influencer has been slammed by fellow mums after admitting she is spending £15,000 on her toddler this Christmas – while men are DMing her “every hour” to ask if she’s single.
Jodie Weston was shocked when women came out in force to call her a “rich snob” and send puking emojis after she shared her festive plans.
The 32-year-old, from London, started buying gifts for her son, two-year-old Koa-Zayde, last month – with a weekly advent calendar surprise in the lead up to the big day.
But the announcement hasn’t gone down well with people online, with Jodie receiving nasty messages from women – who even insulted her appearance.
“I have had an influx of insulting comments from women,” the DJ and influencer, told Need To Know.
“I don’t know why some people feel the need to harass people they haven’t met when I haven’t done anything to them personally.
“I’m not scared to be a unicorn in life and do things my way.
“I have had some trolls calling me a rich snob and others insult my appearance and think my clothes are inappropriate for a mum.
“I’ve also had women sending me the sick emoji.
“I think as long as you live within your means, you should be free to spend your money how you wish – and look as you please.”
Jodie, who has appeared on Channel 5’s Rich Kids Go Skint, Rich Holiday Poor Holiday and BBC’s Eating with My Ex, believes that most women are likely just jealous – and not just of her earnings.
She said: “I’ve had loads of men tell me how hot I am,
“I get asked if I’m single every hour on social media.
“They say I’m a MILF.
“I think this scares women but I like to look good for me, I’m not interested in their husbands.
“And the fact I can spoil my son, as he deserves, probably also makes them jealous.”
Jodie started her seasonal celebrations with a £2,000 visit to Centre Parcs last month.
She’s also purchased a £450 dino soft play pass for Koa-Zayde and they’ll be heading to Legoland this month followed by a trip to Lapland in December.
And there’ll be plenty more to come.
There will be matching Cartier bracelets, matching designer pyjamas for Christmas Eve and she has even enquired if its possible to get a picture of them projected onto the moon for Christmas Day.
She previously said: “I have started buying the £15,000 worth of Christmas gifts to spread it across a few months – budget planning I call it.
“It’s like a weekly advent calendar that starts from late October till Christmas Day.
“I would love to continue the celebrations into January, as it is the dullest time of the year where everyone is down and dismal – and reinvent Christmas celebrations to start 2026 off on a high.”
This isn’t the first time Jodie has splashed the cash on her little boy.
Earlier this year, she admitted to being “broke” after going on £30,000 a year holidays and suffering the strain of the UK’s cost of living crisis.
