I earn £4,000 a month, buy designer clothes for my children and have expensive beauty upgrades – but I'm not giving up my council estate

A woman has revealed she can earn up to £4,000 a month from social media but is refusing to give up her council house.

Whitney Ainscough, 30, from Rotherham, South Yorkshire, has recently witnessed a huge growth in her social media following, meaning she can rake in thousands of pounds every month.

Previously, Whitney lived on Universal Credit. But now her finances have improved, meaning she can undergo expensive beauty treatments and go on luxury holidays.

Despite making a living, Whitney is regularly criticized by critics who claim she buys luxury items with benefits.

However, in conversation with The sunthe mother-of-three revealed she can earn up to £4,000 a month from social media work.

Whitney, who has three children named Cora, 11, Addison, six, and Adley, two, said she worked in the pharmacy sector for seven years but later went to Universal Credit after having her third child.

“While I had universal credit, I was obviously earning next to nothing,” so she started learning social media.

'I started with that and now it has become a source of income. This makes me independent, I am projected [to earn] over £100,000 this year,” she said.

After causing a storm online with her content, Whitney enjoyed a “luxury” lifestyle.

She recently underwent stomach surgery in Egypt and plans to undergo many more treatments, including a tummy tuck and breast reduction.

Whitney, who claimed she was smart with money, added that she is completely unfazed by the trolls who claim she spends government-provided money on such luxuries.

She said: 'I love it, I get money for it and I don't have to leave my house. I mean, today I've already made £200, I haven't left my money and it's dinner time.'

Despite making a lot of money from social media, Whitney has refused to give up her council house and hopes to acquire a larger four-bed council house soon. Her current rent is €450 per month.

It comes after Whitney revealed her dismay after spending £100 to buy her daughter the very best designer shoes for the new school year, only to be told they don't meet the uniform policy.

In a clip shared to TikTok, Whitney explained how she bought the Vivienne Westwood pumps for her 11-year-old daughter who has just started 7th grade but became angry after receiving the message from the school.

In the 28-second video on her channel, which uses the handle @itsmebadmom, Whitney said she was “furious” about the decision.

She added that she will now have to buy a new pair of school shoes for her daughter, even though she claims the fashion choice has no effect on her child's ability to learn.

Whitney's anger divided viewers, with some coming to her defense as they agreed that a student's choice of school shoes makes no difference to the quality of their education, while others said they did not like the uniform policy should have read correctly in the first place.

In the video, which has been viewed 145,000 times, Whitney stands in a field and tells her followers: 'So I spent £100 on shoes she can't wear. Quite a bit fuming'.

“They're just some damn Vivienne Westwoods! What's the problem?' The frustrated mother adds: 'But no, so now she has to have different shoes. I mean, I would understand if the learning process affected her, but it doesn't, so yeah.'

After watching the clip, fans were curious about what the shoes in question looked like, which led to the mom filming another clip to explain.

In the second clip, Whitney held the black patent leather shoes up to the screen next to a photo of her daughter.

She slammed the unnamed school's decision: “It's absolutely ridiculous that she can't wear this.”

Whitney explained that she decided to spend more money on her daughter's shoes for the special occasion of her starting high school.

“You know, as a mother you can spend £10 on shoes, you can spend £100 on shoes, but that's the choice I made,” she said.

She joked: 'What's the problem? She won't get another education because of that pair of damn shoes!'
