In a viral video on social media, single mom influencer Adrielle Sigler is facing intense criticism for her financial transparency after asking followers for money to help care for her kids.
On the TikTok platform, a single mom influencer gained attention after creating a GoFundMe campaign to raise $30,000 to help her kids.
In a viral video on TikTok, a single mom influencer, Adrielle Sigler, 33, frequently receives millions of views on her posts.
She recently created a GoFundMe page to raise $30,000, claiming the funds were necessary to move her family after her son was allegedly attacked in Jamestown, New York.
Additionally, she set up another fundraiser to cover her son's orthodontic costs.
In the footage, Adrielle Sigler revealed that her son was brutally assaulted.
Sigler explained that on May 2, her son was beaten and robbed by a group of students who threatened further harm if he reported the incident.
She is now seeking financial help, stating, 'Our lives have become at risk living in Jamestown, New York. We have to move as soon as possible. My son was brutally assaulted May 2, 2024,
'Please help us move as soon as possible,' she writes on the page, with herself nominated as the organizer and the beneficiary.'
However, critics on social media were stunned after discovering Sigler's lavish spending.
Critics have raised eyebrows at Sigler's financial decisions. Just three days before starting the GoFundMe campaigns, she revealed that she spent a staggering $17,000 in a single month. As a stay-at-home mom responsible for three children, Sigler justified her expenses.

Additionally, Sigler defended her spending, emphasizing her generosity and commitment to providing for her children. "I'm generous. I'm super generous. I invest all of my time into making a living through social media. And in return, that goes back to my kids," she stated.
In the comment selection, many shared that their reactions have been mixed. Some have criticized Sigler for asking for donations while seemingly living extravagantly.
Others have defended her; they argue that her spending reflects the realities of single parenthood and that she should not be judged for seeking financial help during a crisis.
One person said: Cut WAY BACK on your expenses. I barely spend that in a year! I live on about $24000 a year.
A second wrote: I live in NYC I have never had 17000 in expenses in my life.
While a third commented: How about invest your time into giving your kids attention and they won’t be getting into fights at school, don’t sit on the internet all day and beg for money.
Someone else said:All they have to do is stop watching her and get their friends to stop watching her. Send her into the oblivion of the unknown. Then she'll have to get a job.
Another added: Mom of 3… twins and a boy… I don’t make my kids happy I guess because I don’t buy them everything and anything… live in Ontario and our food bill is about 100$ a week iv never bought them back to summ
Her job is being an 'influencer'… How about getting a steady job and not begging strangers for money - and not spend as if you’re loaded. Another added.
After the incident, many believe she is justified in seeking help. What did you think about this incident?
