Mum-of-11 Heather Frost wants attention "to stop" over Tewkesbury 'mansion'

She told the Echo she had "plenty to say" in response to her own father's stinging claims that she was "lazy".

But she said she would not air her thoughts publicly and added: "I just want it all to stop now, it's gone far enough."
On Friday, Royston Frost, 72, from Tewkesbury, said his daughter should have "got off her backside" and found employment.

It came after jobless Heather, 37, who has appeared on Daybreak and Jeremy Kyle , claimed she is not living a life of luxury and runs out of money every week.
Public outcry began earlier this month when it emerged that Heather and her children were moving from their Churchdown home – two houses knocked together – to a purpose-built six-bed eco home in Tewkesbury, funded by the taxpayer.
Further controversy followed when it emerged Heather's 16-year-old daughter Angel owns a pony.
It has also been reported that Heather hired a fairground carousel worth hundreds of pounds for one of her children in 2011.
Angel has vowed never to have her own children after seeing how much her mum struggles.
In an interview with the Daily Mirror, Heather said: "A mass murderer wouldn't get as much attention as I'm getting. One bloke said on Facebook he wanted to put all my kids in a house and gas them. It's just sickening."
She added: "I'm not prepared to say how much I receive (in benefits) – that's my business. But I run out of money every week. Luckily I've got a good mum who bails me out."
"I usually spend £250 a week on food. We have everything large – Iceland do family meals. My kids eat anything – bangers and mash, lasagne, spaghetti, and we always have a full Sunday roast.
"I go to Primark for the kids' clothes, but if people give me second-hand ones I will gladly take them. I'll take anything off anybody."

“Tough ****; this is our money, and we have a say in the matter. If she had kept her legs shut to begin with and had one or two children like most people then this wouldn't be an issue for contention.”

“This feckless scrounger wants all the attention on her and her kids to magically disappear does she? She brought this all down on herself with the interviews and kicking off she wants a £400,000 pound house eco friendly house built for her. Lets see…takeaways for 12 people, Days out at a theme park for 12 people! Seriously?! 1 horse, 1 blue and gold Macaw worth appox. £1000, 3 dogs, 1 cat, 1 rabbit, and 2 guinea pigs, 2 Chinchillas', fish £115 pound an hour flying lessons for truck driving boyfriend, a full sized fun fair carousel she rented for a birthday and the list goes on and on. My god, what planet is this money grabbing lazy woman on? The pet food and vet bills alone are worth more than what I probably make. The Council needs to audit this scrounger because if she can afford all this she doesn't need help. She lives like she just won the lottery! So its in the interest of the tax payers for the news agencies to shine a spotlight on these p*ss takers and expose the council for being incompetent morons for letting this type of con artist have there way for so long.”

“She said on Daybreak t.v.that she is only 50-50 if she will take the new home?.Don't you believe it she won't refuse a £400-000 home she'll grab it with both hands and send for a fairground roundabout for the kids to celebrate.People like her and her current partner of six of the children should be made to get off their fat lazy butts and do some work.”
