If this doesn’t show their channel is dying…

There is almost 3 years between when they created their channel, August 1 2016, and when they hit a million followers, January 2019. So obviously, in those 3 years, they were able to amass a million subscribers.

Now, there’s almost 3 years from when they hit a million followers, January 2019, and where we are currently, almost January 2022. During these 3 years, they’ve only gained about 310,000 followers. That is very small potatoes for a channel the size of theirs. Especially after a channel hits 1 million, they seem to grow a lot faster but their growth has SIGNIFICANTLY slowed down in the last 3 years.

Looking at their engagement supports this too. Their view and comment counts are very low for a channel of their size. I have a feeling that though it looks like they have a lot of subscribers, I think not very many actually watch their videos, they just haven’t bothered unsubscribing. I rarely unsubscribe from channels so I can definitely see that. I think they have a small core audience that watches but I don’t think it’s a big number nor do I think it’s a number that’s really growing much if at all.

Careers in social media are fickle things and it’s looking like their channel may not be able to support them much longer. That could be why we’ve seen more ads in their videos and on their Instagram than usual. It could also explain why they’re getting this investment property at Margaritaville because the gravy train is sloooow these days. I honestly think Daniel going back to work (if he can find a good engineering job with such a huge gap in his résumé) could be a good thing for his happiness.

The popularity of family vloggers in general is on the decline big time. People are realizing how fake and dangerous it can be and how exploitative it is of the kids that are part of these families. At least child actors leave a set and get to go home where they can relax with no cameras around; kids in family vlogs don’t have that safe space because their house is the set and their life is the movie. 2022 will be an interesting year that’s for sure. How much longer do y’all think they will last?

As for the tumbling, it’s pretty boring. But again I do not know the requirement of a senior level 3 cheer team. All they did were back tucks. Their technique was ok for the most part. There were definitely some girls whose technique was on the weaker side (Evie included) but 80% of the r/o back handsprings were strong enough to produce high somersaults. I liked the first throwing thing their did with the fliers (the fliers arched backwards in the air) but from a visual perspective it was all downhill after that.
Looking forward to seeing how they progress as the season goes on. I wonder when their next competition is…is it daytona?

We are in the midst of trying to book our next (2022) summer holidays to Florida. Not going to lie, we love it there. We asked our girls if they wanted to go somewhere else like Las Vegas, or cape cod or the OBX but they unanimously agreed on Florida….but a week in two different locations. And the eldest can only come for a week because it’s in the middle of competition season and she shouldn’t take two weeks off training. And the youngest wants to go for three weeks. Booking holidays used to be so simple when they were small 😂.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts! The routine may have been better with the music; it’s too bad we couldn’t hear it. We definitely couldn’t see if they were on beat but their timing in terms of synchronization was quite off. Tumbling for level 3 really isn’t very interesting. Back tucks are essentially the hardest skill they can perform; no twisting skills, no layouts, etc. Plus they can only do a back tuck at the end of the pass which makes it hard to make a cool pass, it makes it boring seeing the same round off tuck or round off hand tuck etc. I’ll attach the level 3 tumbling rules from the US all star federation. There’s not one governing body for US cheer, there is several, but I think the rules are pretty much the same across the board. What I think is funny is that, when they show snippets of other teams, it’s usually level 5 and showing them doing fulls and other challenging tumbling passes; I think they want people who don’t understand cheer to think that’s what the Rich girls are doing too.

Just for your knowledge, the part you’re referring to at the beginning where they toss the flyers and they arched in the air is called “baskets” which is another required part of a cheer routine like tumbling, the elite stunt, dance section, etc. It was visually interesting and fun to watch but fairly easy for their level. I can see them changing their baskets to get higher difficulty points.

Their next competition is indeed in Daytona! From looking at the varsity tv schedule, it appears as though it’s “ The STATE Daytona Beach Nationals” on January 15 & 16. I’m hoping varsity will have the performances posted for free again; I’m too cheap to take out a subscription LOL.

Side note while we’re on the cheer topic; it’s really a shame that Kapri is so stiff/inflexible because she would make a fantastic flyer otherwise. Kap is personality plus and can do the whole sassy confident thing so well! Flyers need to be performers since there’s so much focus on them; when they’re flying, you really only see their faces, not the bases, so they need to really have good facials and really perform. I think Kap is made to be a performer of some sort and would excel as a flyer if only she had the flexibility needed to pull the various body positions.

Congrats on booking a holiday! That sounds fun :) In my childhood, we cruised a lot and all of them except 1 left from Florida so we got lots of opportunities to visit Florida and we always enjoyed it. Although I think Bermuda beats Florida as my favourite destination but Florida is certainly high on the list 😛. We love Disney and universal but did venture outside the Orlando/theme park area. It’s a beautiful place so I don’t blame your girls on wanting to go! Have you ever swam with manatees while you’ve been in Florida? It’s one of the coolest experiences I ever had. If you’re interested, I can DM you more info on the tour we did because it was excellent, so much better than the other manatee tours!

Image
Kapri would be a good performer but the basic fact is, if she really wanted to be a flyer she would be working hard on flexibility which she clearly isn’t.

A manatee experience is something we actually have planned at crystal river. We love the nature part of Florida, the Everglades, the swamps, the sea life….we are always trying to find new experiences and manatees is one of the few we haven’t experienced so definitely on the cards for next trip.

Now why on earth doesn’t Kendal take her kids to visit these places. The youth of today is crying out for education on environmental issues and she lives in a state where they are actually doing things to help the sea life. I bet if she were to put out content about turtle rescue or swimming with dolphins she’d get a load more views than if she were to go to bath and body works again.

Seems like Evie and Cameron split up. Timing seems about right……a few months of being close is enough time for him to have understood the Rich family dynamic and decided he needed to escape.

Thats what i thought too! But i thought they were in love according to Evie LOL! Evies clingy & annoying which might have been cute at first but later became tiresome. I wonder whos fault it was more Evie or Kendal. Im worried that if Evie finds somebody who thinks her family is good & normal that he isnt going to be the best person.

How did you learn this? I didn't watch it, but wasn't he just in their Christmas morning vlog?

Yup- I thought the same thing. I’m not sure if they were ever actually dating but I’m thinking he told her he didn’t want to be in a relationship and he just wanted to be friends. The weird thing to me is this happened just after Christmas where he gave her AirPods (what?????) and some other nice gifts. It also looks like Kenny and Daniel met his parents at a church service. I’ll bet Cameron’s family realized the Rich family are not invested in Jesus the way they claim to be and bailed fast. Cameron’s family is very very involved in the church and Kenny and Daniel only pretend to be Christian because they think it makes them sound like good people. We all know they don’t value anything Jesus stood for- despite all the Bible quotes and references to God Kendal and Evie post on Instagram. Evie was not a match for Cameron and I think everyone involved saw that.

Also, Kenny is going on another rant about how she’s the ONLY influencer who speaks her mind and speaks the “truth”. And apparently SOOOOOOOOO many of her followers are now thanking her for it. First of all, Kenny, you speak your OPINION. Not the truth. Second, you are not the only person who thinks the way you do and you’re not the only influencer who talks about it. You’re not special and you’re not some martyr saving the country. Stop acting like you’re a rebel leading the charge. You’re just another crazy lady with an ego.

Evie posted on her story thanking Teri for being there for her & cheering her up. She also posted on her story a quote about how God knows the plans he has for you & there not to hurt you but give you a better future, Evie said she really needed to hear that right now. Theres no doubt in my mind its about Cameron. Around the same time Kendal posted "You dont have to prove your worth or force others to see it". It could be about Cam or it could just be Kendals daily BS quotes(you can decide for yourself). I agree with what pelican said, i think he just wanted to be friends which makes Evie look dumb because she has a tik tok saying their in love with each other but not official yet. I think its safe to say he doesnt love her if he isnt dating her. (screenshot below). Evie was trying to be something shes not, the past couple months she was posting more religious quotes which she never used to do. Your're right i think he saw right through that after a while.

*sorry double post*

Take a look at Evies tik tok if you can. Theres recent videos of her crying & singing to a song saying "i wish we never met" in the last 24h. She liked a comment saying they broke up. Her most recent tik tok she said this (screenshot below) So the break up wasnt his fault hmm so then who was it? My guess is Kendal.

On Kendal’s ig photo of all the kids going to Christmas Eve church there used to be a comment from Cameron’s dad saying how nice it was to have seen them there. Since the breakup that comment is gone. The Rich family isn’t religious so I don’t know why they are pretending otherwise. Kendal says Evie should be true to herself. So why is she pretending to be a devoted Christian? The religion thing makes me feel uneasy. I was raised a Christian but as an adult have become atheist. I don’t judge people from any religion but I dislike how people say that Christians are good people. People can be good regardless of their beliefs. They don’t HAVE to be Christian. They can be Muslim or Hindu or Jews or atheists or agnostics. A good person doesn’t need to believe in a higher power to be credible or taken seriously. So why can’t Kendal just be a good person without pretending to be a devoted Christian? As for her BS rants on IG stories about being radical and speaking her mind, she is so pathetic. Literally hundreds or thousands of people speak their mind. And not only do they speak their mind, they act on their beliefs too. Kendal doesn’t act. She just mouths off. And it’s not cool. She just comes across as ignorant and arrogant.

If EV said the breakup wasn’t his fault, I wonder if his parents encouraged him to “end” things. I’m sure after spending some time with the Rich fam and possibly seeing who Kendal is on social media they didn’t want him associating with EV and her family. Kendal can say all she wants that they are Christian but they don’t reflect those values at all- in any sense. She’s a wicked woman who is entitled and only cares about her appearance and feeling validated by random people on the internet. She’s not a good person and I am sure Cameron’s family sensed that and told him EV is not the Christian girl he probably wants and to cut it off.

I’m fairly confident that you’re right - that his parents saw the a million red flags that comes with dating a Rich and made him end things (or encouraged him to). Cam seems to have a good head on his shoulders and I’m sure if his parents explained the red flags, he could probably see them too but had just been blinded by wild teenage hormonal lust. Judging by how involved Cam is in the church, I’m sure his family is as well and, as you mentioned, the Riches represent to opposite of the message of the church. First of all, they’re what we would call “Christmas Catholics” (I don’t know they’re catholic but just a general term) which means they’re the church members you only see on Christmas and Easter. EV had started going to youth group and stuff but the family still wasn’t participating. On tiktok, that’s where you can really see what kind of people EV and Kendal really are. Kendal is very mean, acts very entitled, and is just as much of a bully as everyone she calls bullies. Cam was always commenting on EV’s tiktoks which means he was also seeing all the rude ass comments his girlfriend and her mom make - seeing how they treat people like dirt unless they worship them. They represent 0% of Christian values and I honestly couldn’t blame Cam’s parents suggesting he step out of that relationship. EV is not the type they would want him dating I would assume, they probably want a sweet Christian girl who is kind to others and dresses more modestly than EV who dresses in quite revealing clothes. The Riches just don’t embody any of the qualities that I would think Cam’s parents would want in a girlfriend and her family. Kendal seems to always end up ruining her children’s relationships (friendships included) and EV is following right in her footsteps, she’s essentially a younger version of her mom. If she doesn’t see that and realize the toxic traits and red flags her behavior sets off - and try to improve it - she’s going to live a lonely life with her mom as her only friend.

I hate to say this but we totally called that they wouldn’t last very long when they started dating…

Not a coincidence they break up RIGHT after his parents met the family. I feel like he wouldnt break up with Evie if he didnt somewhat agree with his parents. I think its kinda cute Evie got into church (something Cam loved) to win him but its SO clear she didnt have good intentions & it was only for show. Did his parents not really like Evie & Kendal was the cherry on top? Or did they like Evie but Kendal was a deal breaker? Im curious!

It’ll be interesting to see what happens with EV and Cam; that’ll give us some more information as to what happened. EV said that they ended things on good terms and that he’s a great guy. If they broke up because Cam’s parents/Cam saw the red flags of how toxic the Riches can be, they definitely won’t end up being friends after because, if this is the case, his parents probably don’t want EV in his life altogether, not as a girlfriend nor as a friend. If they ended things for another reason that doesn’t have to do with EV, for example: him feeling he doesn’t have time for a relationship right now, they may end up staying friends or at least somewhat friendly with each other. I think it’s most likely the former so I suspect we will see Cam disappear from her life - it’ll be interesting watching how this plays out. I’ll definitely be keeping an eye on EV’s tiktoks and Instagram stories and Ken’s as well to gather any tea while it’s still hot 🐸☕️. They still follow each other on Instagram so I think it’s likely that EV is being honest about ending on good terms. However, if Cam really acts upon his Christian values, I can see him approaching the breakup in a kind way, not picking a fight or tearing her down so, even if he sees the red flags, he probably didn’t tell her that so they’re still cordial with each other.

Double post again, sorry.

I wish I had more answers for you but I don’t unfortunately. I can however say what I guess would’ve happened. I suspect his parents probably weren’t the hugest fans of EV. I think she was probably very shy and quiet around them seeing how embarrassed and she wouldn’t talk at all anytime her mom mentioned her having a boyfriend. If his parents see how EV posts/comments on social media, I’m sure they would disprove as she’s not kind to her followers whatsoever. I also suspect though that Ken was the straw that broke the camels back. You don’t have to be great at reading people to see who Ken is as a person, she makes it pretty clear. If Cam is from one of those wholesome Christian families, one of the truly wholesome ones that value kindness and love not the drama seeking church goers that you can see, I’m sure Ken was the opposite of what they’re looking for. Meeting her, they probably saw where EV gets a lot of her traits from and maybe it scared them that she would just continue to get more and more like her mother, the opposite of what they want for Cam. It’s possible that they did like EV; she did make a point of going to church and youth group and those are things that seem to be important to Cam so that may have played to her favor but even the way she dresses is not your typical wholesome Christian look that’s for sure. So my answer: I really don’t know but I suspect it was the two factors with Ken just being the final red flag where they decided they wanted him to end things. Maybe Cam made the decision on his own volition but I suspect that regardless, his parents likely voiced their opinions and Cam either agreed or was forced into the break up. I suspect he agreed.

I wonder if his parents googled the Riches and found places like this… or maybe they googled them and found things like Ken’s tiktok and Instagram where she often berates literal children in the comments. I’m sure if they did Google them, whatever they found likely added to their list of red flags 🚩

Thanks for sharing your thoughts! The routine may have been better with the music; it’s too bad we couldn’t hear it. We definitely couldn’t see if they were on beat but their timing in terms of synchronization was quite off. Tumbling for level 3 really isn’t very interesting. Back tucks are essentially the hardest skill they can perform; no twisting skills, no layouts, etc. Plus they can only do a back tuck at the end of the pass which makes it hard to make a cool pass, it makes it boring seeing the same round off tuck or round off hand tuck etc. I’ll attach the level 3 tumbling rules from the US all star federation. There’s not one governing body for US cheer, there is several, but I think the rules are pretty much the same across the board. What I think is funny is that, when they show snippets of other teams, it’s usually level 5 and showing them doing fulls and other challenging tumbling passes; I think they want people who don’t understand cheer to think that’s what the Rich girls are doing too.

Just for your knowledge, the part you’re referring to at the beginning where they toss the flyers and they arched in the air is called “baskets” which is another required part of a cheer routine like tumbling, the elite stunt, dance section, etc. It was visually interesting and fun to watch but fairly easy for their level. I can see them changing their baskets to get higher difficulty points.

Their next competition is indeed in Daytona! From looking at the varsity tv schedule, it appears as though it’s “ The STATE Daytona Beach Nationals” on January 15 & 16. I’m hoping varsity will have the performances posted for free again; I’m too cheap to take out a subscription LOL.

Side note while we’re on the cheer topic; it’s really a shame that Kapri is so stiff/inflexible because she would make a fantastic flyer otherwise. Kap is personality plus and can do the whole sassy confident thing so well! Flyers need to be performers since there’s so much focus on them; when they’re flying, you really only see their faces, not the bases, so they need to really have good facials and really perform. I think Kap is made to be a performer of some sort and would excel as a flyer if only she had the flexibility needed to pull the various body positions.

Congrats on booking a holiday! That sounds fun :) In my childhood, we cruised a lot and all of them except 1 left from Florida so we got lots of opportunities to visit Florida and we always enjoyed it. Although I think Bermuda beats Florida as my favourite destination but Florida is certainly high on the list 😛. We love Disney and universal but did venture outside the Orlando/theme park area. It’s a beautiful place so I don’t blame your girls on wanting to go! Have you ever swam with manatees while you’ve been in Florida? It’s one of the coolest experiences I ever had. If you’re interested, I can DM you more info on the tour we did because it was excellent, so much better than the other manatee tours!

Kapri would be a good performer but the basic fact is, if she really wanted to be a flyer she would be working hard on flexibility which she clearly isn’t.

A manatee experience is something we actually have planned at crystal river. We love the nature part of Florida, the Everglades, the swamps, the sea life….we are always trying to find new experiences and manatees is one of the few we haven’t experienced so definitely on the cards for next trip.

Now why on earth doesn’t Kendal take her kids to visit these places. The youth of today is crying out for education on environmental issues and she lives in a state where they are actually doing things to help the sea life. I bet if she were to put out content about turtle rescue or swimming with dolphins she’d get a load more views than if she were to go to bath and body works again.
Totally agree on the Kapri thing. They show Daniel in videos tell the girls to stretch and they fight him on it big time so clearly they aren’t motivated to do it. They clearly don’t care enough to put in time outside the gym if their dad needs to force them practice. Most flyers stretch every single day of their lives, some spend up to an hour stretching, then factor in time to work on balance and strength; they are dedicated to their craft because flying is hard and there’s only a handful of flyers on a team so it’s very competitive to be chosen to fly for a team. Kap has the potential but until she cares enough to do the work, she won’t reach it.

So glad you’re doing a manatee experience! We did ours at Crystal River too, it was awesome. I found it much cooler than swimming with dolphins because dolphins are trained and told to interact with you but you’re not allowed to touch the manatees unless they touch you and you’re in their wild. The manatees are super friendly and chose to come interact with you. I had one swim right up to me, came up to the surface and rolled over on his back to splash me. Definitely one of the best experiences I’ve had!

They could definitely capitalize on the amazing beauty of their state and make a lot of money doing it! Kendal said in today’s video that her new years resolution is to have many properties and for that to be their next move (which is more of a goal than a resolution but anyway) but Glass Half Full has an even better idea!! You even gave them some great ideas to start. I think they spend so much on Disney that they don’t have any left to travel. However I think that at this point, she’s the only one who really cares about Disney, the others just play along. Maybe if they went less often, they’d have more money to do other travel AND being the magic back for everyone else since they won’t be there constantly. This really is a huge missed opportunity and I think their channel would start doing better if they did that. Plus it’s less costly then trips out of the state so easier to afford for them!

Kendal and Evie are going OTT on the Bible verses today and yesterday. All of them are about being who you are and not doing what other people want. If you were to read between the lines…which is to make an assumption, Cameron wanted Evie to change or to do something out of her comfort zone. Perhaps he wanted her to wear more clothes. Or maybe he wanted her to go to parties or leave the house without her Mom.

I was thinking the EXACT same thing about the Bible verses. Like cool your jets, Kenny. Posting Bible verses on Instagram doesn’t make you a god loving woman and it doesn’t make you a Christian. It’s performative. Again, you can say you’re a Christian all you want. You can talk about the “lord” all you want, but it’s your actions and your core beliefs and values that make you a Christian and Kendal is NOT a Christian. Ugh it makes me sick how fake she is.

She’s also posting all these “the lord knows your soul” type memes because she doesn’t want EV to feel bad about herself (which she shouldn’t- teenage girls are hard on themselves and as much as I don’t like EV, I know how much it sucks to have somebody break up with you).

I do wonder if Cameron saw something in their family’s dynamic over Christmas that made him reconsider his relationship with EV. The timing is suspect so I have to believe that Kendal said something or did something that turned him sour. Maybe she wore one of her “funny” political shirts or made a mean comment and he heard and wasn’t pleased.

Evie is obviously very sensitive, maybe Cam made a small comment and she made a big deal about it. But Evie said they are on good terms & hes a good guy, so why is Kendal trying to make it seem like Cam is bad and wants to change Evie? I think its wierd how Evies crying on tik tok when Cam follows her on there.

I was coming here to comment on all the Bible verse Instagram stories but I knew in my heart that you guys would already be discussing 😛

Do we think that it was maybe Cam’s parents that wanted her to change? He may of agreed with his parents but used them as the scapegoat during the break up conversation; my parents were always cool playing the scapegoat if we needed an excuse to not go to a friends house or something of the like. If she’s saying that he’s a good guy and stuff, I don’t think he would’ve told her to change something. As you mentioned, she’s very sensitive and I don’t think she would’ve taken it well had it been Cam. She’s had no issue talking negatively against ex friends on the internet so she would likely be doing the same about Cam right now had he said something.

Even the sole fact that they’re using bible quotes passive aggressively shows they’re not Christian. God wouldn’t be cool with people throwing around verses to make someone feel bad about themselves. After some Instagram browsing, I saw that Cam’s whole family plays in the church band so they’re definitely very involved in the church and something they care about. If they’re true good Christians, I’m sure they were able to see through to who the Riches really are.
