Brittani Boren Leach: Christmas Decor, Unsafe Sleep Galore | Part 8

[Nothankyou]

SNL nailed their BBL impression last night. The only thing missing is kids in danger.

I thought the same thing! I even paused it to show my husband a picture of her on IG and he agreed it was her. Everything about it looked like BBL, the hair, the tye dye hoodie, the bracelets. So funny! I also started telling my husband about Crew and his first response was, let me guess, she makes money off of his death.

It says not available in my country. Ripped off. I can picture it though lol.

I didn’t realise Brittani was only just 30. I thought mid 30’s, pushing 40.

You can watch it on the SNL Twitter feed. I’m in Australia and it works for me there.

Oof. So she clearly did not use the owlet she was sponsored to use with Crew. Here's how I know: I use a 2nd GENERATION owlet with my daughter. Yes, it does say wiggling, when she is moving. However, it does NOT beep because she's wiggling. The main advertised difference between the 2nd and 3rd gen is the reduction in the wiggling status on the app, so it's been updated to be compatible with use in the Snoo.

So, if I had to guess, that was (another) sponsored story and she literally just used the selling point provided by the company. But if I was owlet why would I want someone whose baby died (presumably) due to unsafe sleep practices to promote the product, that they already had with the baby that died? Confusing.

[Wintaosam]

Thanks for that information on the Owlet.. I personally haven’t used one (my kids are grown) so I think many of us wouldn’t have known that.

The vocal fry today was exceptional. I wonder if she does it when she wants to sound emotional? Because talking about the Owlet “should” trigger anxiety in a mum who has lost a child to questionable sleep.

Also, the rough housing from the boys? She thinks that funny? Cooper was jumping up and down on Cash.. that is so unsafe.

I don’t know if anyone picked up from the picture she posted a while ago (the one where she’s all dolled up for family Christmas photos) where she’s standing in front of the mirror, nursing Cole. You can see about a third of the Snoo in that photo. Either she didn’t realize (I mean come on...) or she strategically placed it there to halt all the speculation about where Cole sleeps.

She has to be purchasing some IG followers, how freaking disgusting lmao.
I don't follow her, but I do check her page everyday, on Saturday I checked her page and glanced at her followers. She had 878k followers, today I went on her page and noticed that her followers went up to 918k. A 40k difference. There is no way that she could of magically gained that much within a 24 hour period. Plus she's that desperate to reach 1million followers. What a disgusting loser, to purchase followers because killing your son didn't get you enough attention. Also taking her sweet baby out bowling in this pandemic, how classy .

I think you’re right, even if she has gained from a giveaway for follows, her social blade is sus

She probably thinks no one would notice since the giveaway is going on..

Great - she is probably scheduling a 1M photo shoot.

She 100% will do a 1mil photo shoot. It's so disgusting because 90% of those followers are due to poor crew passing away.

[Wintaosam]

I don’t mean to be insensitive, but the story she posted about not getting upset by hearing Crew’s name but the fear of him being forgotten.... Sweetheart, you have made it near impossible for anybody to forget crew with all your tacky collabs and swipe ups. You have totally changed the intention of that post with your pursuit of the influencer lifestyle. That story post coming from someone else holds a lot more weight than it does coming from you.

[Haulnarse]

“Crew sent these million followers directly from heaven to keep an eye on the shitshow his negligent death has created”

[kmarie]

I can’t get over the photo shoot. And I pray I never have to go through the loss of a child so I try not to judge, but I keep thinking how can someone do a cheerful, happy photo shoot for their own self a week before the One-year anniversary of their child’s death? I also follow Ashley Stock on Instagram, she lost her little daughter this past Spring. She Allows herself to be happy but you can just tell What a struggle each day is for her, there’s like a joy that has been permanently sucked from her, she is constantly talking about her grief process. Such a stark contrast from photo shoots and giveaways BBL does. I am a Christian so I really try to not judge Brittani but the birthday photo shoot is just so bizarre to me, it’d be different if it was for one or the kids or something. Or done for 1M followers, and not so close to the anniversary of Crews death.

Okay so I only have 1 kid, and I know all moms are different but like... the more I think about it the weirder it is that she put crew alone in a room that isn't her house on a bed.

Last Christmas, mind you it wasn't in a home, my brother booked the party room at his apartment complex so I didn't have a bed or room to put my son down to sleep but towards the end he fell asleep and I just held him. He was only 6 months old and even through all the noise and yelling and talking he slept for like 30 mins.

Why didn't she just hold crew while he slept? Or bring a pack n play?? Again, I know she has 3 older boys and yeah maybe they're noisy but like, why didn't she say Jeff please handle the older boys crew is going to sleep. Or why didn't she take 30 mins and stay with him in the room while crew napped? I'm SURE no one would've said no you can't leave the party for 30 mins/an hour.

Not even taking into consideration safe sleep, this whole situation was preventable.
Maybe I'm a little too much with my son, but if I were in her shoes I would've said hey my son needs a nap I'm going to your guest room for an hour while he sleeps and I would've later next to him to make sure he was fine. Plus the peace and quiet would be nice, right?

We will never know. And I have no doubt the family has played this
Over and over again thinking back on that day.

One thing that I wonder is if Brittani was already distracted or in a bad emotional place when she put Crew down. If her Mom and Ex were involved in any way at the time it must have been horrible to be celebrating Christmas at her moms house. She’s got a bunch of kids, a young baby, her current husband, her ex- and the situation with her mom.

I don’t say this as an excuse as much as I wonder how that factor impacted the day. Going back to when it happened and her YouTube video about it I always got more of an angry vibe than a sad mourning one. Obviously anger is in fact part of the mourning process- but I have begun to think there is more to the back story of why Crew was in the bed to start with and what the mood in the house was before anything happened.

I agree. It must make for awkward family holidays. From what I have read and seen online, I get the impression that BBL’s mom and ex hooked up while both were still married. I read somewhere that both BBL’s marriage and her parents’ marriage deteriorated at the same time. There would obviously be distance following that. I wonder if maybe she didn’t start getting closer to her mother once she had Cooper. To give her kids a “normal” sense of family holidays. So by no means are they all lovey dovey but they do what they have to to make it work. Carter would have been quite young and all he knows is what was there from the outset. Honey and daddy live together. So I don’t think it’s weird for the other kids. It’s their “normal”. But it can’t be comfortable at all for BBL- but she must endure it for her kids’ sake.

I remember one “assumptions” video where someone said “you and your ex are friends” and she kept saying “no, we aren’t friends, more like acquaintances that work together for our kid” - then after the passing, it was said that a “friend” set up the go fund me. It was her ex wasn’t it?

All this to say, that Christmas Day last year wouldn’t have been the day that normal families would have envisioned. Perhaps she didn’t expect to stay long etc. No one will ever know. And I’m sure many people have put their babies down on a bed when they’ve been visiting someone. Not safe, but hindsight is 20/20.

She would leave the faucet running on Cole's bath and walk away to take a photo. It takes two seconds for him to accidentally whack the faucet and get scorched with hot water/shocked with cold water. I'm admittedly a safety freak, but I have no idea how she is so careless – constantly – after what happened to poor Crew.

I thought the same thing when I saw it. The way his arm was flailing so close to the hot water faucet (atleast it’s the hit one where I’m from) it amazes me how careless she is. Everything for the ‘gram. It really clouds your judgement on what is safe- all in order to get a cute pic.

Oh absolutely! We never truly know someone's family dynamics and from the looks of theirs, it seems very dysfunctional. But who really knows.

And I'm going to assume with each child you get a little more relaxed and confident so maybe she figured I've done this before I can put crew down to sleep in this bed and he will be fine. Its true, you never think this will happen to you.
Not that that is an excuse. But it is reality.
