Rachaele claimed that Wilby was non verbal, even filming herself crying about the "fact he may never speak". In fact, at this point in time, he had been shown saying a variety of words, all in context for what was happening at the time, and since attending a childminder and then pre school from the summer of 2022, his speech developed extremely well, and he continues to have a good vocabulary for his age. Additionally, Rachaele claims that he has little understanding of anything, being "in his own little world", yet often shows him saying things that demonstrate his understanding (as an example, Rachaele said that he didn't know what a family was or who his are, he doesn't understand what a sister or brother is, yet when seeing rhinos at West Midlands Safari Park, he said that one was a mummy, one was a daddy, and one was a baby, and when another one joined them he said it was the grandma). My boys have lived their own innocent lives, not wanting this. They cannot talk freely, they are petrified, apparently if I do they will be in trouble. Everyone can see my boys are forced for pictures to promote themselves as the ‘perfect couple’!

Knowing this was a true to life story and one that the author navigated and escaped, made it a compelling read. I couldn’t bare putting it down without finding out where her strength came from. ⁣ Rachaele and Josh's relationship allegedly started while Josh was married to his first wife, and Rachaele was pregnant with her third child and still in a relationship with the father. Rachaele has never admitted this, but does concede that locally "everyone hated" her and Josh when they got together, which it is speculated is due to the fact that her partner at the time was popular in the local area, and also because Josh is alleged to have left his wife on their son's birthday. In her book Rachaele proclaims the entire town held venom and poison against herself and Josh for the first two years of their relationship, even going as far to say she thought the stress would actually kill Josh’s mum. And there are certain times when I feel as though I’m being pulled in different directions and nobody is getting me at my best – neither my family nor my job – that they’re both being short-changed somehow. Thats incredibly funny ( clearly not) after what the two of them did to me with plenty of help. They both destroyed my life and others....!!!!! To the point of suicide...prior to moving out, Rachaele's eldest daughter did not sleep in the house, she moved into the shed which was converted to make room for a nursery when the youngest child was born. This is outside of the house, and while it does have electric, it does not have any running water or washing facilities. Advertised Woodland Trust by walking in woods, despite being inappropriately dressed and having never shared that she and her family enjoy walking. My children’s lives are being recorded daily and in their patch-work fiction due to their affair. Her book has more devastating lies about me as a Mummy to my two gorgeous boys.

BooksIn 2018 Rachaele published a book, "Part Time Working Mummy: A Patchwork Life". Readers of this book have reported that it does not contain anything that hasn't already been posted on Rachaele's social media, and is poorly written. Your husband, a heroic police officer working nights and making right what was wrong in the world. You began to work with domestic abuse charities and you were taking in referrals in the middle of the night – services were ringing you to accommodate women and their children. Amazing. This woman who empowered other women.This book is everything I've been through that's made me who I am, plus the lessons I've learned from many mistakes. I hope that it will make you laugh as well as give you strength to keep going when times get tough. After all, we are all in this together... Isaac and Tallulah have been sneaking in their friends late at night to hang out in Betsy's bedroom V stated that she had been told initially that 2 experienced women would be in charge of the women's centre, when this was changed so that Emily would be managing it V was concerned, partly due to Emily's fairly recent history with her own abusive relationship, and because she has no qualifications or experience. V doesn't feel that if Emily applied for a similar role elsewhere she would even be shortlisted. When V raised a concern with Rachaele that this was leaving the CIC open to allegations of nepotism, she was shut down. V also attempted to raise her concerns with Jo (Rachaele's PA) who she felt agreed with her, but was not keen to get drawn into taking sides.V also stated that she had asked Jo whether a statement had been prepared in case Rachaele's followers find out that she was never in refuge, Jo just said "no". YouTube sets this cookie to measure bandwidth, determining whether the user gets the new or old player interface. V had never followed Rachaele on social media, but had come to notice some things which she wasn't comfortable with. She gave an example of videos of Emily being drunk in a hotel room and felt concerned that she was a young woman in a vulnerable situation, being filmed and laughed at by Rachaele and Josh.

I did a little digging and found that there are quite a few published studies that reach the same conclusion. As a part-time working mom (and researcher) myself, it made me stop and think. You’d bring them to your home, around your family, show their photos to the world of their happy faces.I genuinely enjoyed reading this book, even though it was a heart breaking read at several points, and I became really engrossed in Rachaele’s story written in her own words. Her story feels so real and raw. I’m also not trying to suggest that there’s one right way to go about it. I have no time at all for the “mommy wars” that pit working mothers against stay at home moms, etc. At the end of the day, each of us has to do what’s best for our own families. Rachaele's oldest stepson fell off his scooter and had a swollen arm, around a week later at a dentist appointment the dentist recommended that medical attention be sought, it transpired that his arm was fractured. In a video taken in the car on the way home from hospital, Josh was seen berating his son for "all the worry you've caused Rachaele", no mention of the pain the two adults had put the child through in not seeking medical advice sooner. Following this incident a referral was made to children’s services, in January 2020 regarding alleged physical abuse of ‘Josh’s sons’. Rachaele shared the letter from children’s services closing the case, where she accused trolls of making false allegations and ‘wasting’ the time of professionals, and proclaiming that another child would be being abused ‘in ways you can’t imagine’ while social workers were tied up investigating her. What can I say...amazing! The book is humbling, it's heart wrenching, it's funny and it's real life! The world needs more Rachaeles.'
