Influencer is roasted for her VERY emotional Instagram post about mowing the lawn – as she admits to having ‘tears in my eyes’ and praises her mum for ‘being an inspiration’


From endless lockdowns to political upheaval, it’s no secret 2021 has been an emotional year for many Australians.

But no one could have predicted that a simple household chore would send one Instagram model into an emotional tailspin over the weekend.

Gold Coast influencer Olivia Mathers, 24, uploaded a bizarre post on Sunday about mowing the backyard of her new home, and her melodramatic tone left fans baffled.

‘So proud’: Gold Coast influencer Olivia Mathers, 24, has been roasted for her melodramatic Instagram post about mowing her backyard

She said she was ‘so proud’ of her achievement, which had literally reduced her to tears, and encouraged her 632,000 followers to dare to try new things.

‘I’ve had happy tears through this process… Happy tears because I am just so f**king proud of myself. It’s so easy to be faced with an unknown / new situation and say “I can’t”,’ she wrote alongside a photo of her perfectly trimmed backyard. 

She continued: ‘My advice and something I am only just learning is, give yourself more credit and challenge yourself to create results you want in life, in every aspect. It’s damn f**king empowering.’

Olivia also praised her mother for inspiring her to ‘defy the odds’.

Followers of Celeb Spellcheck were quick to roast Olivia for her dramatic display, with one commenting: ‘My three-year-old did more yard work than this today.’

‘Unless she was on all fours with a pair of scissors.. colour me wildly unimpressed,’ another added.

Olivia, who is the younger sister of bikini model Isabelle Mathers, bought her first home in January, so it’s possible her post was referring to her feelings about being a first-time home buyer, rather than the mundane act of mowing the grass.

However, given that she also uploaded a ‘before and after’ video showing her grass-trimming efforts, it’s easy to see why many found her post amusing.

Olivia reacted to the trolling on Instagram Stories on Monday.

‘I was sadden [sic] to see my vulnerable moment of gratitude be so quickly turned into a laugh,’ she wrote.
