Have you\u00a0managed to miss out on the clash\u00a0between a local hotel owner and an English social influencer? Allow us to catch you up.<\/p>\n

Paul Stenson, owner of\u00a0The Charleville Lodge Hotel and The White Moose Caf\u00e9 in\u00a0Dublin,Ireland\u00a0<\/a>recently received a message<\/a>\u00a0from someone who claimed they\u00a0“work as a social media influencer” with “over 87,000 YouTube subscribers as well as 76,000 Instagram followers” who wanted to give Stenson “exposure”\u00a0in exchange for a free stay at the hotel.<\/p>\n

Stenson then proceeded to have a\u00a0field day<\/em>\u00a0with this message on social media but\u00a0the influencer, who outed herself as 22-year-old Elle Darby from Bath, was quick to\u00a0defend herself on YouTube<\/a>\u00a0believing that she hadn’t done anything wrong.<\/p>\n

The whole situation has caused quite a\u00a0stir online, getting coverage across a number of publications including The LAD Bible,\u00a0The Daily Mail and Business Insider.<\/p>\n

In fact, it’s gotten\u00a0so<\/em>\u00a0much coverage that Stenson believes that Darby owes\u00a0him<\/em>\u00a0for all this free exposure…<\/h3>\n
