Top 10 family influencers and bloggers
Family influencers are one of the most popular genres to follow on Instagram, as they offer a unique look at family life – combining parenting tips, clothing ideas for kids and things to do during the school holidays. It’s a way to get inspiration, feel encouraged and feel part of a wider parenting network.
To inspire you and your loved ones, we’ve gathered together the top 10 family influencers and bloggers that you need to be following in 2022.
Billie Shepherd
These days TOWIE star Billie Shepherd is better known as the star of The Family Diaries, where she features with her husband Greg and their adorable children Nelly and Arthur. The show, just like her Insta channel, shares her parenting journey and takes an honest look into the pressures of juggling a young family and work commitments – something most of us can relate to.
Head over to our influencer store to steal Billie’s style or grab a pre-loved fashion bargain for your little ones. If you’ve seen it on the ‘Gram, there’s a chance you might find it here.
Charmaine Daudu
Charmaine Daudu – better known as Charmsie on The ‘Gram – is a quirky mum with a creative flair which makes for fun and interesting viewing. She offers practical beauty advice (there are some great tips for those with curly hair) and styling ideas on her channel – and has recently released her first children’s book.
The debut author’s activity book ‘Fill In The Faces’ helps to teach children about their feelings and emotions in a kind and artistic way. All in all, Charmsie is an interesting influencer to follow.
Emma McVey
Model Emma McVey shares her family life with her Geordie Shore star husband, Gaz Beadle, and their two children Primrose and Chester. Follow the foursome as they deal with the ups and downs of life, including Emma’s shocking hole in the heart diagnosis in 2021, which she revealed on Instagram. We love that Emma shares pictures of her kids, grumpy photo fails and all, so you get a realistic portrayal of family life!
Emma also shares cooking tips – including her recipe for ‘hidden vegetable pasta’ which is a firm favourite with daughter Primrose. Emma’s Reliked shop features a range of adult clothing and children’s clothing – with all profits from the collection donated to the Spread A Smile charity.
Simon Hooper
Better known on his social channels as ‘Father of Daughters’, Simon Hooper shares four girls (including twins) with his blogger wife Clemmie and he takes a fun and honest approach to sharing life’s ups and downs with his audience.
Now one of the most popular UK family influencers, Simon originally set up an Instagram account to try and get more followers than Clemmie! He now boasts 880k fans who regularly look forward to his videos and witty musings about living in an all-female household – plus his battles with the tooth fairy!

London-based Mum of two, Flavia Stuttgen is one of Insta’s most glamourous family influencers. The entrepreneur turned her passion for fashion into a successful business selling exact replicas of celebrity outfits to earn money at home after the birth of her daughter. Don’t expect the warts-and-all approach of other family influencers, but it’s a dive into stunning imagery.

For many, knowing that this journey isn’t lived alone can be both comforting and encouraging.
