The housewife, who is originally from the US but now lives in Dubai, often uses the account to share insights into what life is like being married to a millionaire.
Her videos are extremely popular among social media users and she has amassed a million followers on the video sharing platform.
In a recent video, Linda, who calls herself the Original Dubai Housewife, revealed that she has gained 18 kilos since her pregnancy.
The influencer, who is nine months pregnant, said: “Nobody warned me, and I certainly didn't sign up for this.

“This [having a baby] is such a big sacrifice for me.
“I love my body and I hate gaining weight.”
Linda stated that once she gives birth to her daughter, she will pay for the weight loss shots.
She said: “People judge me when I say I'm going to use Ozempic as soon as I give birth.”
Linda added that people have warned her about the dangers associated with the jab, but said: “I've just gained 40 pounds, that's a much bigger problem.”
Ozempic is a prescription-only medication used to treat type 2 diabetes.
It is not approved as a weight loss treatment in the UK.
However, semaglutide, the active ingredient in the product, can help regulate your appetite by keeping you feeling full for longer and reducing appetite.
New mothers are not recommended to use Ozempic to lose weight after giving birth as it may affect the baby if the mother is breastfeeding.
Side effects of taking Ozempic include abdominal pain, constipation and diarrhea.
Wegovy (which also contains semaglutide) is a similar drug available on the NHS as an option for weight management.
In the video, Linda said that another thing she does to make herself feel better “about being fat” is taking herself to a luxury spa.
At the spa, the housewife regularly visits for a facial that costs more than £1,000, but Linda admitted she told her husband it cost double that when he handed her the money to pay for it.
Linda also spent £8,000 ($10,000) on a maternity photoshoot to make herself feel better about the weight gain.
She said, “Because I gained 40 pounds, I should be able to spend $10,000 just for my self-esteem.”
Linda's video has clearly left many jaws dropping as it racked up almost 250,000 views in just one day.
TikTok users rushed to the video's comments section to share their thoughts.
One user said: “I also gained 40 pounds.
“After I had the baby, it came off quickly and I was thinner before I got pregnant.
'You are beautiful. You'll be fine.'
Another user added: “I want to look like you when I'm pregnant.”
