UK mother spends £20 000 on pageant baby outfits

A single mum has spent over £20,000 on her 22-month-old pouting pageant baby – and says she is proud to excessively spoil her daughter.

Carer Jas Sullivan, 23, has splashed out on £15,000 worth of designer clothes for her only child Minnie-Beau. She kits her baby in designer clothes and even makes her wear hair extensions and full make-up for pageants.

Her flamboyant beauty pageant costumes including a corset-style dress and a ruffled two-piece bikini and the tot is dripping in £1,000 worth of gold jewellery.

Now Minnie-Beau is making a name for herself on the beauty pageant scene with her trademark pout setting her apart from her rivals.

But not everyone agrees with Jas’ parenting style.

Jas, a carer from Plymouth, said: “I’ve been accused of sexualising my daughter but the people that say that are the ones with the sick thoughts – that doesn’t even enter my mind.

“It’s just like a dance competition – you get marked on your routines, your outfits and your make up too. I’ve spent probably around the price mark of twenty thousand pounds on Minnie and she’s worth every penny.

“She is spoilt but she’s not a spoilt brat and she appreciates everything I give to her. She got her pout from copying me and now everyone knows her for it – her personality is amazing.”

Jas was just 21 when she unexpectedly fell pregnant with Minnie-Beau, but despite receiving no support from the father, she was determined that her daughter would never want for anything.

Jas said: “Before I had Minnie you could say I was a bit of a wild child, out all the time drinking with friends and all of my money went on that. Now that I have Minnie every penny I have goes on her and she’s completely changed my life for the better.”
