Sophie Hinchcliffe has opened up about the ‘abusive’ trolling she faces online. The influencer, who is known to her fans as Mrs Hinch, has made a career out of her passion for cleaning and has regularly offered up her tips on This Morning and via a series of bestselling books.

But the star, 35, who boasts five million followers on Instagram, has admitted that the backlash she receives from people online can be so ‘frustrating,’ even though she appreciates that that sort of thing often does come with the job.

She said: “I will never understand how cleaning your home can cause such offence. Why are people so angry? There’s a lot worse going on out there. It’s hard for me to understand why [trolls] do it and it’s frustrating, because you want to say: ‘That’s lies!’ But I just shut it off. I’m not saying it’s OK, because it’s wrong to accept what can feel abusive, but it comes with the job.’

Sophie, who has been married to sales manager Jamie Hinchcliffe since 2018 and has Ronnie, five, Lennie, three, as well as nine-month-old Vinnie with him, also spoke out on the notion that her husband is ‘not a hard worker’ and insisted that couldn’t be further from the truth.

Speaking to The Sun, she added: “People accuse him of not working hard, but they’ve got it so wrong.” She called James her “rock” and said he is “so grateful every day that he gets to spend the time with his children.”

The social media star is also known for her friendship with presenter Stacey Solomon, but they haven’t been seen on screen together since she appeared with the former X Factor contestant on an episode of Sort Your Life Out more than two years ago.

An insider recently spoke about the parallels between the two women’s careers, and noted that Stacey successfully launched her own lifestyle brands after befriending Mrs Hinch. The source told the Daily Mail: “Stacey is known as a very business-savvy woman. She’s a hard worker, but she goes for what she wants and she gets it.”

For Sophie, it hasn’t been the easiest of years as she previously told of how she was “in the thick of it” as she secured a doctor’s appointment for baby Vinnie after worries he had “either colic or even silent reflux.” Vinnie’s illness came soon after Mrs Hinch was hospitalised herself with a blood clot in her groin just three weeks after she gave birth to him.

All this followed the death of her beloved dad, Alan, on April 25 last year – and as the anniversary of his death came Mrs Hinch admitted she was struggling without him.

On Instagram, she wrote: “And just like that it’s April.” Alongside an angel wing emoji, she then lamented: “A month I will never see the same way again.”

The Essex native continued: “Life isn’t the same anymore Dad. I look for your signs every day but it’s not enough. I miss you more each day. Time isn’t making it easier, in fact it’s showing me more of what you’re missing.

“I just want to sit with you, I want to make you a coffee, place Vinnie in your arms, show you the boys’ Easter hats, read Ronnie’s school report with you, help you order mum’s Mother’s Day flowers and then spend the day together in the workshop, living out the dream we had only just started.” Sophie then sadly concluded: “Things are hard right now Dad, and I’ve never needed you so much.
