Mrs Hinch: Unknown Facts About The Instagram Star
The world has gone Mrs Hinch MAD! Never has the nation - mainly Hinch fans - been more obsessed with cleaning hacks, cleaning tips and a cleaning pad!

Her Surname Isn’t Hinch!


Anyone else feel like they’ve been lied to their ENTIRE life?




Her name is actually Sophie Hinchliffe; Hinch sounds better, right?

Before She Was An Instagram Star, Mrs Hinch Was A Hairdresser


Not to promote the stereotype but, she is from Essex…

I wonder if she will ever return to the salon?

When She Was 21, She Had A Gastric Band - Which Got Lodged In Her Oesophagus!


Back when the #10YearChallenge was a thing, Sophie AKA Mrs Hinch, revealed that she’d had a gastric band fitted.

The Instagram star gained STONES in weight after she lived off takeaways post learning how to drive. Delivery fees are expensive to be fair!

So, she got herself a bank loan of £6,000 and had a gastric band fitted. Sophie went on to lose eight stone.

However, the story took a bleak turn; just two years after she had the band fitted, it slipped. It got lodged in her oesophagus!

She had emergency surgery to remove it from her oesophagus. However, it is still in her body, just not working.

There’s No Reason Why She Names Her Cleaning Supplies


Yep, if you thought there was some big secret that you weren’t in on... sorry - you’re wrong.

She has Minkeh, Cliff as well as a whole host of others!

Wonder if Marie Kondo does that with her cleaning supplies?..

She IS NOT A Professional Cleaner


Cleaning was originally just a hobby of Sophie’s. Surely the one mil on Insta counts as being a professional cleaner?

She Started Cleaning To Help Her Anxiety


Speaking to Hello magazine, Mrs Hinch reveals:
‘If I’m feeling anxious I use it [cleaning] as a coping mechanism to steady my thoughts. Tidy house, tidy mind.’

She Wasn’t Actually 'Mrs' Hinch When She Started Her Account


Despite EVERYONE calling her Mrs Hinch, she wasn’t legally Mrs Hinch for a few months after she set up her account.

Jamie and Sophie got married on August 17th, 2018.

She Met Her Husband When They Were Both Working In Sales


The couple met at a London based job-search company where they both worked in the sales department.

Jamie still works as a sales manager.

Her Book Is A Number ONE Best-Seller


Sophie’s book, Hinch Yourself Happy, became a number one best seller on Amazon.

It is also the second fastest-selling book on Bookseller’s non-fiction chart EVER!

She Broke Zoflora And Increased Their Sales By 28%


Zoflora is one of Mrs Hinch’s most favourite cleaning products, especially the scented disinfectant which is just £1.

People jumped on the bandwagon so much that workers at the factory had to work weekends AND overtime to ensure the shelves were filled! She increased their sales by 28%!

They owe her for THAT UNPAID dedicated instagram post:

Her Dog Has His Own Instagram Account


And he has 85,000 FOLLOWERS!

Henry may be a cutie, but let’s just put it into perspective – a dog has 85k followers…

Let that sink in a while.

She Enjoys Staying In… And Isn’t Ashamed About It


Despite still being in her twenties, Sophie isn’t huge on going out on the town.

Talking about it, she said:
‘Yes I’m only 29 but I would prefer to clean, attempt to cook, sew and buy baskets than go clubbing. That’s Mrs Hinch for ya, and I’m proud of it.’

She even posted this Instagram story:

She Is Supposedly Worth MILLIONS


Rumour has it that the social media star has gained more than £1 million from her book deal alone.

Can you imagine how much she gets from her Instagram sponsorships/ adverts and television appearances!
