A mother-of-six has been slammed by trolls on social media for having her six children sleep in one bedroom of her two-bed council house.

Nicole Wong, 31, from Leeds, has stated that she receives vile comments from trolls who have threatened to report her to social services after sharing a TikTok explaining that her six children all sleep in one bedroom.

Nicole, a part-time aesthetics practitioner, is mum to Nyala, 12, Nevaeh, 11, Neesha, 8, Nathaniel, 7, Neiko, 4, and Nikita, 2, who all sleep in one room of her two-bed council house.

Since she started sharing her family’s life on TikTok, she said trolls make assumptions about her because she has six children, and they don’t think that so many youngsters should be sleeping in just one bedroom.

Nicole said: ‘People comment on my TikTok videos telling me that I should learn to keep my legs closed because it’s not fair on my kids that they all have to share a bedroom.

‘People have even said they’ve reported me to social services and think that I am neglecting my kids.

‘I have been trying to get a bigger council house for my family for the past five years, but I’ve not made much progress.

‘There are rarely houses that are big enough available for me to bid on, and the council doesn’t seem to be interested in helping me out, even though our home has been overcrowded for years.

‘I’ve lived in this home for 12 years, and I first moved in when I just had one child.

‘I then went on to have my second, third, and fourth children, and when I fell pregnant for the fifth time, I decided it was time to put myself on the housing list because I knew I needed to start thinking about getting a bigger house.

‘I have been on the list for five years, and even when a house does come up, I’m still number 50 in the queue.’

‘I think because all of my children are healthy, they aren’t putting us down as a priority. We’ve received no help at all.’

Nicole has two bunk beds, two single beds, and a double bed in her children’s room where they all sleep.

Nicole says she hardly has enough room in the house to cook for her family, and they have to eat on the sofa and floor as there is not enough room for a dining room table.
