A STAY-at-home mum has been begging strangers to help her pay bills as she is “struggling” to pay for her three kids.
Kieranne claimed it is “literally killing” her that she can’t provide more for her kids as she is “not doing very well financially.”
In a tearful clip on her @kieranneeunice account, she explained how she isn’t asking for money in a traditional sense, but said that engagement on her social media content will help her earn cash.
Kieranne, who is currently a student, said she had been debating whether to copy the “trend” of asking for help for “the longest time.”
She shared: “I feel awful, I’m literally desperate at this point.
“I need your help and no I don’t actually need your money, what I actually need from you is your time and engagement, likes, shares, comments, all that kind of stuff on this video.
“I’m really struggling at the minute and I don’t know how to word it without getting emotional.”
Kieranne explained how she has three little children but wanted to “do better for them” than she currently is.
During her clip, she showed herself tidying up their family house, including cleaning the kitchen, organising the children’s toys and straightening up the lounge.
She added: “I don’t want to give you a sob story but I might just do that as I can feel the tears coming.”
The mum shared how she was worried about paying her bills and feeding her children.
Kieranne continued: “I don’t want that for my kids.
“It is literally me that I can’t do better for them.
“I know that some of you may be thinking ‘why don’t you work then Kieranne’.
“I’m a stay-at-home mum, I have three little children, eldest has additional needs so she needs a lot of support and I’m also a student.
“I am working towards a career and I really want to get to that point.
“Right now I’m struggling and I’m having a hard time.
“I just can’t help but cry, pathetic I know.”
The mum apologised on camera for getting “emotional” as she shared her story with her 115,000 followers.
Her video has racked up over 2 million views, so people clearly got behind her to help engagement on her content.

One supportive person wrote: “We’ve got you mama. One day at a time.”
Another added: “I’m so sorry Kieranne, you’re doing your best and that’s what matters.”

Last year, we shared how three in 10 adults are currently struggling to feed their households due to cost of living.
Shocking research commissioned by cereal manufacturer Kellogg’s found hundreds of Brits are suffering financial difficulties.
The poll of 2,000 adults found 29 per cent admit they find it difficult to ensure there is always enough food on the table.
With a quarter (26 per cent) claiming they have never asked for help.
As a result, 59 per cent have cut back on electric and gas while 54 per cent have had to borrow money from friends and family.And one in 10 have used a food bank to help them get by.
