Beautiful ladies, I have something to say to all of us, Most of us are wonderful women here who leave awesome comments and ideas. I want to address the "dislikers" I would like for all of us to make the comment section a place vibrant with positivity. We are all dealing with the stress of the pandemic, some of us take it out on Lydia and other KZbinrs, getting (really!) mad about mistakes you feel that Lydia made, complaining loudly about how she chooses to do certain things, or even worse, leaving likes on nasty comments made by others here. We cannot impose our beliefs or way of life on another person and get mad when they don't do everything the way we insist they should. This kind of behaviour is toxic and upsetting to other subscribers, myself included, and to yourself who is participating in these negative actions. It helps no-one, hurts a lot of us here. I have my own problems; months of arrears and debt because of the pandemic, eating very small meals only twice a day, we all have our struggles. But this season is going to make better women of us, if we are patient and persevere, choose to grow from it. I don't know if we have ever asked Lydia how she is doing, said a prayer for her, wished her well, wished her a lovely day; just because she is smiling and fun when she is with us, doesn't mean she doesn't have her own challenges. Sometimes a smile is worn in bravery, we've all done it. I love her content, it helps me to think and keep dreaming bigger than my current circumstances, plus I love cats, so... Lumi! ^_^ If her content is not to your taste, you can always take a break, come back any time. But please don't be toxic. We are all unhappy about one thing or the other because of the pandemic, we are all hurting over different private matters. If you must correct someone, do it IN LOVE, with kindness, the way you would to your best friend. Think really, really hard, over what you want to say and how it might be taken; let us not allow our emotions to override our good manners. It may not even be worth typing, not every battle is ours. Don't hurt Lydia, don't hurt us, don't hurt another human being. Do what heals your heart, for as long as you need to. Let this be the season your nourish yourself, take time to do what calms you. We heal ourselves, love ourselves, improve on ourselves, refine ourselves in this time, so that others can be glad we are here.

[@zellamakela7226]

I just wanted to tell you that I have watched you for three or four years now. You have helped me plan my wedding, help me take steps to make my living quarters a place where i love, inspired me to be myself, and given countless suggestions on products that I now consider essential. I don't know you, but you truly do seem like one of the most radiant, kind people. Thank you for pushing through all of this negativity. Thank you for continuing to make my (and so many others) day brighter with your videos. You are allowed to be human, and you do not deserve to get hate for simple living your life. Try to remember that. Thanks again for all of the laughs and inspiration!

[@amulyapoojari]

Dear Lydia... I truly adore you. Recently u shared on Instagram how people were abusing you over the year...it was horrible to read. But let me tell u something, how people interpret something is a reflection of themselves. So if they think you are selfish and shallow, don't take it personally. For me you have inspired me to take care of myself in the smallest of things. And by doing so has helped me immensely gain confidence over time. So please for 100s of such people out there, there are 10000s of people like me who love you and your work so much. So never be discouraged and please continue working the way you like coz we like them too!!! You go girl❤️ Love you 😘

[@lydiamillen]

Thank you for your thoughtful words xx

I love her work as well and I stared my KZbin channel after getting inspired by lydia...

[@amulyapoojari]

@@BeObsessed That is truly wonderful!!! Good luck love❤️

[@rivermckenzie4022]

Amulya Poojari you so accurately and eloquently stated my thoughts. I too have been inspired to take some time to look after myself by Lydia’s example. The confidence and sense of well being that brings spills over into the other areas of my life making me more effective in all my other roles. It’s a shame women come here trying to make other women feel ashamed for enjoying some luxuries in daily life. Lord knows we spread ourselves thin, and if we don’t replenish we’ll be unhappy, miserable to be around, ineffective and toxic like some of these people who try to sabotage Lydia with their unsolicited negativity.

[@amulyapoojari]

@@rivermckenzie4022 so true!!

[@bettibrenton2774]

I’m so sorry Lydia. I can’t imagine not having the closure to know what happened to your sweet fur baby, and imagining the torture running through you about what may have happened. No one should ever go through something like that💞💞

[@rosesestoKW]

Lydia, I am a trained massage therapist and can agree with the lady you had for your massage. We don't realise how much tension we hold in ourselves and when we have a massage, it will really release any negativity and toxins from your body. You are human, you will have good and bad days, it is how we react to what is thrown at us that makes us who we are and to have a little 'me' time every now and again is required. Keep going you beautiful soul

[@KB-rc3ij]

I'm sitting here crying. It will be coming up to the one year anniversary of when I lost my cat Lilith and I am feeling sad too. Never apologise for being upset about Lynx, x

[@pinkmusiclovesf]

It’s crazy when my cat Jasper passed away last year it was around the same time Lynx went missing it felt like Lydia and I were mourning together

[@angelapark07]

Ali: *is an amazing videographer and makes almost cinematic vlogs Also Ali: *runs the camera straight into the back of Lydia's head hehe (@1:24) I never comment but your vlogs are lovely, Lydia! I hope you keep being you and doing your thing!

[@WordsForNow]

Oh Lydia, I have two kitty babies, I love them so so intensely, I can’t even imagine how you’re carrying on. I’m in a similar situation to you in that I’m in my thirties, married to a wonderful man without any kiddos. When you don’t have (human) children, the fur babies make you feel like a family instead of just a couple. Losing one of your family members without a trace would be jarring and tragic for anyone. You mourn for as long as you need, my heart breaks for you, Ali and lumi 😿

[@normaenriquez6870]

Lydia, you probably won't read this, because there are already lots of comments here... Thank you for opening your heart about Lynx. :( First I was stunned by what you were describing about what probably happened to him, but it does make sense... then you spoke about the discovery of the spot on the field and finally your vision... omg... I cried so much... that vision is exactly what Lynx was using to communicate with you, as your souls were (and still are) definitely deeply connected, it was his way of letting you know about his last moments, his sort of survival instinct message to you... be sure that time and destiny will put things back in order soon. Maybe life will make the person responsible to open up someday and give you both closure, if it is a human with feelings of course, the remorse and guilty conscience has quite the job for him. What is important is that you received the gift of connecting with Lynx in a strong deeper way which is proof that no matter what, love always transcends and love lives around you forever... forever. Love to you, Ali, and beautiful Lumi.

[@akt7446]

Sitting here sobbing listening to you Lydia. I can’t even imagine the horror of losing Lynx. Sending you so much love and light 💖

[@emineyolal4681]

Lydia, I truly hope you’re feeling better. You only promote positivity and kindness across all of your social media platforms and I hope that is all that you receive. We all appreciate how strong you are and that you never portray the negativity onto us through your videos because so many of us look to unwind from our stressful lives by watching you. And in return I hope your comment section will be flooded with positive comments that bring you fulfilment and some peace. So grateful for the hard work you put in physically, mentally and emotionally to put forward great content just for us ❤️ absolutely adore you!

[@lydiamillen]

Thank you Emine x

Oh Lydia if that’s true about Lynx, how awful 😢 my cat is literally my best friend and it would be my worst nightmare to lose her and never have closure!

[@carolannaitken5812]

So sorry to hear the story of Lynx, it's heartbreaking.

[@bubblemummy1]

The pain is still very raw, it's clear to see. I feel heartbroken for you, Ali and Lynx. The worst thing is not knowing and not getting closure. Time heals, but I'm not sure that is always true xxxxx

I know you’ll feel like this is giving up but it’s not. Take a proper break. Emma Hill took 3/4 months off and I think it really refreshed her. Maybe do the same. Take some proper time away. A week or a weekend isn’t enough x

[@melsmithmel]

I absolutely agree. I don't comment often on her vlogs but I can't forget what happened to Caroline Flack and we all need to re-asses how online toxicity is a serious matter. She deserves self care and we should respect her wishes.

I can clearly remember when this happened, I balled my eyes out ( especially having cat(s)). I was never someone that connected with you in other level than your great sense of style, but this got me really in my deepest core. Both of your love that you have for your animals is outstanding and i can see how big your hearts are. Months after my cat went missing during Covid crisis and i kept thinking of you, and how hard must’ve been to go through that with everyones jugde-y eyes. Bless you

[@beatrizlargo8109]

Lydia, you and Ali are such good people, you deserve to be the happiest. I am so so sorry that you lost your Linky, I completely understand how devastated you must be. Let yourselves feel whatever you are feeling at the moment. We are here with you. I´m sending you all the love and a big hug.

[@carolineholzwarth6360]

Love is love is love. Don’t apologize for your feelings. Linx was a member of your family No less important and essential to your love and happiness. You will always miss him. Thank you so much for sharing your life with all of us.

[@ambermillar6198]

Thank you for being so honest about feeling sad, it's refreshing to see influencers be honest about feeling down even when they're in beautiful environments etc.

[@vickybaley7971]

Thank you Lydia for sharing Lynx's story and expressing how you are still going through the pain of losing him. It is a very difficult thing to go through and I truly hope that this will get better for you and Ali with time.

[@sueanderson3356]

I’ve lost two cats who have just disappeared and it’s heartbreaking. Don’t ever apologize for feeling sad. Our animals are part of our family and it’s completely normal to grieve!

[@Stephyyii]

I hope you know there are more people who adore you than people who hate you!! X

[@matv4474]

Lydia, the way people treat you in your latest stories says a lot about who they are, not who you are. Unjust criticism is usually disguised compliment. It often means that you have aroused jealously and envy. Remember that no one ever kicks a dead log (Dale Carnegie). Always remember that and don’t let others bring you down. In the moments, when I was studying in the UK, crying and feeling lonely, your personality made me feel better. You always motivate me to be better version of myself. Don’t be upset❤️I want you to know that on the other side of the globe, somebody loves and supports you❤️

[@spicymami6468]

Absolutely right❤

[@GreatRepliKate]

[@hanskivirkkunen8305]

Everyone really should be responsible for what they say, even if they are in the internet and anonymous! Thank you for bringing that up in the insta stories. That being said I hope you can share your life openly and I hope you get as much (or much more) uplifting comments and love than stupid hate. Love your videos! You are a true inspiration. Thank you so much!! ❤️

A similar thing happened to my cat a few years ago. We always let him outside to walk about, and then one night he never came back. We still don’t know what happened, and I know the motions and emotions that you both have probably been going through. Sending so much love to you both 🤍

[@Ellie-ty7ib]

I hope you find peace someday. The loss of a pet can cut so painfully deep for those of us who consider them family. It is perfectly ok to struggle with the loss for as long as it takes. And the circumstances around your baby’s disappearance are especially traumatic. ❤️

I’m so happy you and Ali are away to spend relaxed time together. Your love and admiration for each other is encouraging.

There is something I truely dont understand. Why watch someone or something that you dont like and agrees with. Why put yr energi in that way. I love free speech but please put it in a good way. I love how you grow as a person with yr passion for the sproutlings in yr garden. Love to see all yr ideas come to life and Lumi who has all the love for you two❤️please be safe and know that you are loved. I’m happy for all that you have achieved and please grow the way you want to.

[@GettingHyggeWithIt]

Sending you love and hugs about Lynx. He was such a loved cat. And I know he brought you so much joy and will live in your heart forever. Just wish I could give you a big hug right now.

[@melissalyu]

Hope you’re feeling a little better. I love watching your videos and always puts a smile on my face and helps me to de-stress after work. Stay strong, Lydia. You’ve got this!

[@Chanelboateng]

I love ESPA because you put me on. I hope the change of the environment and well deserved break lifted your spirit a bit ❤️

[@stephaniedavis6496]

Love to all the sweet kittens and cats everywhere. So much love to both of you lovely souls trying to deal with this loss.

[@sppy6222]

Losing a pet is one of hardest things to go through! I still think about my little chinchilla years after she passed and there are moments I would just break down crying. I think part of the reason we are so deeply affected in losing a pet is that we know they have complete and total trust in us. They love us so very unconditionally. Don't ever feel that you have to get over Lynx within a certain time frame. I honestly feel that one who truly loved and cared for a pet can never ever really get over it. There will always be a part of your heart missing. But find comfort in the fact that Lynx knew how much you loved and cherished him!!! He is now watching over you from Heaven. ❤️

[@linamariews]

All my love and big hugs to you and Ali! The fact that you are opening up so much and really being honest about how you feel shows a lot of strength and really can give hope to people going through similar things. Never let random people on the internet ruin your day just because of being true to yourself and showing your feelings. Having such strong feelings is simply enviable and beautiful. Just as a reminder. Lots of love! Lina Marie

I will carry you until you are whole again - a conversation between time and the heart This vlog immediately made me think of this quote 💗

Always gets me when you talk about little lynx 😔 so so sad, your a wonderful person Lydia I’ve enjoyed watching you for around well it’s got to be 4 years now and look forward to your uploads and I want to thank you for all the wonderful content you make and share with us 🤍🤍🤍

[@og6920]

I believe someone found him, realized his value (gorgeous and expensive cat) and either kept him or sold him. I honestly believe he was sold and is living well somewhere.

[@mandiekendall4323]

Such a sad story.. on the same day last year my puppy got put out to foster as I needed chemo and they wouldn’t give him back to us ... they blocked us on all forms of media and took him miles away from us.. everyday I think of him and pray he is happy and safe .. the love of a pet can be so deep.. stay safe and strong 💕

[@pheebs8177]

Lydia, you are a wonderful person. Truly such a kind, vibrant woman. I’m not one to comment really. I’ve watched you for years and never commented but today listening to you really made me want to say that. Lots of love xx

We had to put our cat down yesterday. The pain is unbelievable. Watching your videos is helping me cope. You seem so strong and kind and you have also been in a similar situation with losing a pet. You show that it will get better eventually. Thank you. I wish You, Ali and Lumi all the best because you deserve it!

[@Dizzykittycat1]

I am a new fan and a big one, i'm currently catching up with your story so far after stumbling across you while researching luxury bags. This video has honestly meant so much to me. I got my gorgeous grey tabby for my 8th birthday from the pound. Her and her 4 other sisters were named after girls aloud.. she was Kimberly. I adored this cat and would get up at 4am if she was thirsty or wanted love or cuddles. There was nothing her little purs and meows couldn't make better. When i was 18 she was found in my neighbors garden, they had seen her be attacked by a male stray cat when they went out to check on her she was dead. I was heartbroken nobody had ever seen me cry so aggressively and while i was holding her i was holding onto hope that she would wake up. Many people didn't understand how i was distraught, friends who disliked cats thought i was overreacting. The combination of peoples judgements and my grief left me feeling very vexed. We had her body cremated and i skipped my morning classes to say a final goodbye to her. Upon arrival to my year heads office i was expecting a scolding for being late due to my cat. To my surprise my year head gave me a heartfelt look, a pat on the shoulder and asked me if i needed some time or a cup of tea, i still don't think she understands the effect her empathy had on me. Sorry for the long winded comment it is just your video and remorse has brought me the same feeling that my year heads kindness did that day. Thinking of you and your precious Kitty's.

[@djamilamonteiro8951]

There’s nothing more relatable than Lydia bringing her guns out when Ali tries to snatch her food 😂 I have to physically run away from my hubby with my plate 🤦🏾‍♀️

[@sarahherrian1703]

I am so sorry Lydia. I know we aren't friends in real life, but I feel like we are at least through your KZbin channel. So beyond sorry for the horrendous comments you receive in your DM's. I know its cliche, but it's so true, these people are suffering a sadness and hatred that has overtaken their entire lives where the only source of relief they have is to be vile to people on the internet. You don't deserve this, you didn't ask for this, and THIS IS NOT a part of the job. It's horrid and they should be fined.

Thank you for helping us understand that not being ok, is ok & navigating the path back to ok takes work in whatever way suits you. Loves from NZ 🌹🌹🌹🌟

[@elly3204]

Said it before, say it again - I love your content. It’s an escape for me and I look forward to your videos every time. You are such a strong personality and people are so super quick to judge. These luxuries didn‘t just fall in your lap, you worked hard and earned them. We see this, Lydia ! I‘ve been here for about three years now, watched your videos when you lived in the old house still. People are acting like you just got all of this for free and like vlogging is the most easy thing. If it was, everyone would do it. You‘re putting yourself out there and people pick apart your every step and still you bring on the content. Be proud of yourself my girl xx

[@cmbenke]

Oh my goodness! I’m sitting here in tears just really feeling for you! You are so strong and smart and kind and creative and loved!! I really appreciate you taking us along in your life and I always appreciate you and Ali in alllll of your moments. I’m so sorry you guys are going through this, but you are impressive and a lot of people do respect and look up to you! (In case you needed to hear that today) Thank you so much for being raw and real and open - you’re brave and such a great human!

[@johnstarling1285]

We wish you only fond loving memories of your pet and pray your grief will finally come to a small sadness. Your Lynx would not want you both any sadnesses on behalf of him.

[@hannahritchie1020]

Lydia, I don’t normally comment on your videos but am a long time subscriber, I saw your stories before I watched this and knew I would be so sad to know what you were feeling behind the scenes, my heart broke even more to see you talk about Lynx. Please know that there are loads of us who absolutely love you and your content, if I’ve taken anything away it’s to be more vocal of how inspiring you are to me. Please stay your wonderful self, it’s keeping people you don’t even know going and for that I will forever thank you

[@lindseydavies3633]

As someone with 4 fur children of my own, I tear up every time you talk about Lynx. I know that it is so hard for you to talk about. We feel that pain with you and hope that time will heal those wounds a little bit. Please know that I follow you because I love your content and following along in your journey. I don't need you to be 'perfect' or 'happy' all the time. You are doing a fantastic job!!!! You are an amazing person and have such a genuine soul.

[@maryamtorabi7520]

Even I miss lynx! Lydia you have every right to feel the way you do, and you have shown great strength during this last year. I have loved and lost numerous cats, one never forgets, it always hurts. But I hope time will bring you more healing and in the mean time take good care of yourself. It is odd to think I can affect your life, but I love you and what you represent and I am sending you all positive vibes.

[@annfortunato2314]

I've had 6 cats in my lifetime and every passing or loss (in your case) is heartbreaking. I hope one day you will be able to think of Lynx and not feel so much pain. I think you should definitely get another cat to bring you and Lumie joy. Be well. 😽

[@reneeinla2.0]

I agree with the masseuse about the scalp massage. Get Ali to give you a massage. I have long, really thick hair and it’s heavy and sometimes only a scalp massage will do to relieve the soreness. I have my boyfriend do it and it’s wonderful! I’m so sorry for the rough time you’re having on the anniversary of Lynx’s disappearance. I’ve always had pets and they are my family. When one of them dies or in the case of one cat once, goes missing it’s gut wrenching. Having never found out where he is, I think, is worse than knowing the truth. Anyone with half a heart understands this and sympathizes. Anyone who torments you about this is a damaged human and I hope you’ve blocked these people. Hugs and love. 🥰

[@sandrajansen6334]

I was crying during the story about Lynx :( Can't even imagine how you both must be feeling .. Sending lots of love !!

Hey I’m usually a silent watcher but I just wanted to say that I think your so strong. If you don’t have a pet you won’t understand the bond you have, I was literally tearing up when you were talking about lynx cause I was thinking about my little doggy. I can’t imagine the pain but you’ve got through it. I believe everything that happens in life is to test you or develop you in some way so as lynx gave you so much joy whilst with you and as sad as it that he was taken he has helped you develop as people and he’ll always be in your memories.

I just have to say thank you for being considerate and wearing a mask 😊

I so rarely comment on KZbin videos, but I think it’s so important to express the admiration and enjoyment I have felt watching your videos over the past few years! I know there will be thousands more like me who watch and enjoy silently, it’s so unfortunate that those who spread so much negativity and hate are often the loudest! They are a tiny minority, I can assure you. Keep doing you, and and maybe one day those who don’t enjoy your content will find something they do enjoy to spend their time on! Baffling, you’re a sunshine ☀️

It’s so so tough loosing a pet. My dog was killed and a lot of me died with him, I cried every day for 9 months and still struggle 7 years on. It doesn’t get easier you just get used to it. Sending you all lots of love xx

[@cgibbseaster]

Ok, am I the only one who has a hard time hearing Ali when he talks? He's so soft spoken😊 I'm so happy you both got to have a little getaway! Thank You for bringing us along❤

[@trishaorr1987]

Aww so sorry your mini vacation wasn’t what you hoped for……These trying times and losing Lynx a year ago you can never predict how memories affect you. Losing an animal, especially the way you believed Lynx went is hard to get over. It’s the not knowing what really happened that drives you crazy. Thank you for taking us all along with you and Alex. It’s nice to see you share your feelings. I think its good for you to let it out. Sending love from Vancouver Island, BC!!!!

[@nurirumi8769]

I'm so sorry for your loss. I get it. I understand why others may not understand. Take care of yourself. Not sure if you're a spiritual person but trying to be spiritual myself, I do pray you'll be reunited with Lynx again one day.

[@ldwblondeatheartasmr2545]

In tears for you both. I'm so sorry , you never knew what happened to your beautiful boy. We lost our prince Harry-winston (also a bengal) on the 21st. Last year this month. So Friday is going to be incredibly hard too. Thinking of All 4 of you x

[@justinekim7801]

Lydia, just wanted to let you know that you have never once come off as arrogant or snobbish to me. You always seemed like a bright, happy person who loves her garden (and the smaller things) but also enjoys the luxe things in life (which is def more of my cup of tea) I am sorry that all these attacks on social media has effected a wonderful person like you. But just wanted to say keep your head up high babe! It seems you got a wonderful group of people who surround you and a garden that keeps on "sprouting". I will say it's okay to feel down though, you are human after all and who wouldnt be hurt by such nasty comments. Either way, sending you lots of love and hope you find something to brighten your day!

[@emilyfoster3583]

I massively appreciate how positive you make your channel 💗 & the work you put into it! I also appreciate how much you’ve been through so take time for you!

[@kayleighlock9932]

So so sorry to hear about lynxs really brought tears to my eyes. I remember the day my cat went missing for a week. Was the most traumatic time of my life. But luckily for me she came back. So I can’t imagine what you went through. I’m so sorry once again. Love you all so much ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@Dixiwonderlandyoutube]

You always look so good Lydia! Ali as well. Got so emotional when you were talking about Lynx. My heart is breaking for you guys 😢

[@mbcwidsl1]

I had to stop at the part when you mentioned Lynx disappearing. I'm sending you a huge virtual hug. Lost my B. last year in December. She was with me for 17 years I miss her terribly every single day. Sending both of you loads of love.

[@kellidifrancesco6424]

Lydia - I'm so sorry. The story about Lynx breaks my heart. I was so hoping he would come back last year. I lost one of my cats earlier this year. I feel your pain. I'm giving both you and Ali virtual hugs right now.

[@Ohkeh640]

Do your fave makeup or even a get ready with me would love to see what you’re currently using and the shades too

[@madresmith7901]

So sad to hear you speak about Lynx - sending love 🤍 , really really sad 😩😢 Same happened to us, someone shot our 2 sweet dogs, and only told or admitted it 3 weeks later! So we really had our hopes up for them returning,so hearing you speak about Lynx really make me sad! Sending lots of love!

[@murphlady]

Trips are good for the soul. Working on healing is a wonderful thing! I am so sorry for your loss. I love you both and hate that there are such jerks in the world.

[@sharonbell3542]

My husband had a beautiful Bengal cat who went missing. I don’t think he will ever get over it. Sending you hugs 💜💜

[@karencurtis2697]

Lydia and Ali and Lumi , I can't do anything to make this part of your year better, but I can send my love and let you know I'm thinking of you . Stay safe stay well xxx

[@healthyandbalanced5610]

I am deeply sorry that there are people out there that hurt others like this. Whatever their excuse or reason does not matter. Be kind to others, treat them the way you want to be treated, these are simple things. No one is forcing people to watch videos or follow people, if the content isn’t to your liking then go watch something else. There is no reason to berate, belittle, and threaten people. We all lead different lives and like different things, but at the end of the day we are all people, and I wish people would respect each other, not tear them down. Lydia, you are such a brave person to put your life out there on social media, stronger than most of us. I apologize that you are experiencing such negativity, and hope you find comfort in the the rest of us.

[@gailgeemail]

I am so very sorry for your loss. Unfortunately I know the feeling. It is difficult to find closure. You are very brave.
