On Friday, Mrs. Hinch turned to her social media stories to share an emotional update with her followers.
Through tears, the cleaning influencer reached out to her fans for support as she continues to navigate the painful journey of losing her father.
A Break from Social Media
Sophie Hinchcliffe, known for her cleaning tips and organizational hacks, took a break from her online presence following the death of her father, Alan, in April.
After a few months away, she returned to her platform last month to speak candidly about her ongoing grief with her 4.8 million followers.
Struggling with the Pain
Sophie, 34, described her experience as feeling like an “out of body” experience.
“The world seems different now—everything feels, looks, and smells different,” she shared in August.
She announced her father’s death on Instagram in May, revealing that he “passed suddenly but peacefully while he slept.”
She expressed the profound impact his loss has had on her life, saying, “My life, our whole world, has been turned upside down. It’s a deep, unimaginable pain.”
Coping with Grief
In her recent stories, Sophie admitted that she thought she was managing her grief better but found herself struggling again.
She recounted a recent dream and expressed her frustration with how grief seems to resurface just when she starts to feel better.
“I really want to do better, but I can’t. I don’t know if anyone has advice on how to cope with this cycle of starting over,” she said.
Cherishing Special Memories
Sophie’s passion for DIY and home projects was sparked by her father.
As a child, she and Alan would watch “New Yankees Workshop” together and dream of having their own workshop.
When her family moved in 2021, Sophie surprised Alan with a dedicated space and tools after his retirement—a dream he had cherished since childhood.
She described the workshop as the “most emotional part of the house,” where they had planned many projects together.
Honoring Her Father
In August, Sophie paid tribute to her father with a tattoo featuring his handwriting.
She shared photos of her two boys and the new ink on her forearm.
In her heartfelt caption, she reflected on the difficulty of explaining to her children that their loved one will not return.
She emphasized the profound change grief has brought to her life but also expressed a message of hope and resilience to others who are grieving.
“Life has certainly changed forever, but as parents, we find the strength to keep moving forward,” she wrote, sending love to those facing similar struggles.
