Re-bringing up the Amber Fillerup situation [Read Description]

I made a post about this in October(?) 2023, but feel the need to bring it up again because I see a lot of people jumping to Acacias defense after being accused of recently ripping off the content/aesthetic of Quirine Brouwer. (Because Acacia wouldn’t steal content from other creators, right?)

In 2016-2018, A lot of people think Acacia became obsessed with her at the time friend, and fellow influencer Amber Fillerup Clark (At the time, Amber was a very successful and well known mommy/lifestyle blogger. She was also the founder of BFB Hair Extensions. She is now most known for being the founder of Dae haircare.)

I strongly believe Ambers lifestyle played a very large role in Acacias choice to also become a mother and pursue the “wholesome family lifestyle blogger aesthetic” that she chased until her and J’s separation.

I believe the obsession with Amber started right around the time of Acacias first pregnancy with B. Acacia would buy the exact same outfits Amber wore, would travel to the exact same locations as her just to take similar photos for Instagram, would dress her children similar to how Amber dressed hers, and even went as far as naming her daughter Rosie when Amber also recently had a daughter she named Rosie.

There’s no clear answer as to what exactly caused their friendship to come to an end, but my guess is that it had to have happened around the time of Rosie’s birth. I can only assume after Rosie’s birth, Amber caught on to Acacias weird behavior and decided to distance herself. Before that, Amber would invite Acacia to hang out with her and her friends, and did her hair on several occasions including for her and J’s wedding.

At the time of my original post in Fall of 2023, Acacia was still following Amber on Instagram, but Amber did not follow Acacia back. Soon after I made my post, Acacia unfollowed Amber. Despite the 2 girls no longer following each other, Acacia still follows Ambers brand, Dae, and has made videos in the past year using Dae products.
