LPBW fans aren’t buying Isabel’s latest post about an embarrassing encounter shared on social media.
The star took to her Instagram Story recently, writing: “One of the most embarrassing moments of my life happened today. I’m still mortified but my brother was there and he made me laugh about it and now I’m thinking we should have a storytime. Do you wanna hear the story? LOL.”
She shared a poll that included “yes” and “no” as answer options, adding: “It wasn’t my fault and it could’ve been much worse but it wasn’t so I feel like I can talk about it.”
A screengrab of the post was shared on a LPBW message board, where fans slammed Isabel.
The original poster shared the Instagram Story, captioning the thread: “Either tell the story or don’t.”
One critic replied: “This is along the same lines as people who post on their social something like, “the worst thing just happened to me today, don’t ask me about “, comment section: ” omg what happened?!”….literally just attention seeking.”
Another wrote: “This reminds me sooo much of being in Junior High/High School (maybe younger, I can’t remember) and people would run up to you and say “I have a really, really juicy or awesome secret/story, you want to know? Ohhh, well I can’t tell you about it now” then they’d just walk away. Like…whaaat? Either tell me or just say nothing at all. It all seems like such attention-seeking and passive-aggressive type behavior, and very on par with how she behaves on SM in general. I really used to like her until she started doing this type of thing.”
A third commenter chimed in: “This sounds like a teenager wrote it. “OmG GuYs I wAs So EmBaRraSsEd! WaNnA hEaR aBoUt It!?” Cringe.”
JACOB’S JAB
Meanwhile, Isabel’s husband Jacob is hitting back at haters online.
The proud dad hit back at a parent-shamer who criticized him, calling one of his parenting decisions “stupid.”
Jacob took to social media recently to post a pic of himself and Isabel enjoying a snowy day at the zoo with their son Mateo.
The ex LPBW star captioned the photo: “Sweet Mateo is one year old today. Perfect snowy day at the zoo with almost no one else there.
“He’s signing ‘more’ and ‘dog’ (and getting close to ‘book’) and getting more and more confident walking every day. Sweet sweet sweet boy.”
A commenter appeared to take issue with Isabel and Jacob teaching their son to sign, responding to the post with this: “So ridiculous to teach sign when they aren’t deaf. You going to give him insulin too if he doesn’t have diabetes? So stupid. Be grateful he can hear.”
Jacob later shared the criticism on his Instagram Story, writing: “This is the most entertaining sort of brain rot.”
The ex TLC star’s commentary was shared to Reddit, where fans weighed in.
The original poster wrote in part: “Have to agree with Jacob on this.”
Another commenter agreed: “Beyond how helpful it is for babies who can hear but can’t communicate yet….I see only positives about more babies and people learning to sign. As the relative of a deaf person, it makes it so much easier for them in their day-by-day life when people even know basic signs.”
A second fan wrote: “One of the few times I would agree with Jacob.”
A third commented: “I taught my youngest daughter a few signs when she was a baby/toddler. My nephew has a speech delay and signing his needs is so incredibly helpful, especially if I or other family members watch him for a day. No clue what she’s going on about. It’s extremely common.”
Someone else chimed in: “From someone who is deaf…. This makes me so mad. Teaching kids sign, hearing or deaf, helps with communication in general.”
Another person wrote: “Both of my girls are hearing, as is my husband… I voice and sign with my girls so they are bilingual. But even all hearing families benefit from signing because of closes the gap of frustration not understanding what a child is trying to say.”
A sixth commenter wrote: “teaching toddlers basics things like this as my son and DIL did was extremely helpful when the kids visited before they could talk well.”
HAPPY HOME
Despite the backlash and drama, Isabel and Jacob have plenty to be happy about.
The couple and their son recently moved onto Matt Roloff’s $4 million farm, which created a rift between the family patriarch and his two older sons Zach and Jeremy.
An insider told the U.S. Sun recently that the couple moved into a fifth-wheel camper home on a piece of private property under heavy construction on the Roloff farm.
The source revealed: “Jacob and Isabel are living on the farm full time.
“They were renting a place previously, and are saving up while on the farm.”
Campers of that size can cost anywhere from $36,000 to $135,000 depending on the size and amenities offered.
According to the insider, Isabel and Jacob are considering making the camper their temporary home.
Currently, it’s not known if the construction on their private land is for a future family home or if Matt’s son is just staying close until the farm finally finds a buyer.
The source added: “[Jacob and Isabel] are living there to save money and help out on the farm.
“The rest of the family doesn’t mind, as Matt and Caryn get along so well with them.”
