I’m mum to Britain’s most spoilt baby – I spend my benefits on his Gucci shoes and £1,000 gold dummies
MEET Britain’s most spoilt tot — wearing Gucci shoes, bathing in milk and honey and sucking on a £1,000 solid gold dummy.
Mum Kasey Akram, 32, also gives Jareem organic food and insists on expensive mineral water, with nothing from the tap.
The pampered one-year-old is kitted out in designer clothes and has an extravagant jewellery collection, including a £750 Versace chain and a £925 diamond encrusted bracelet.
Kasey reckons she spends up to £1,000 a month on him using benefits cash, topped up once a year with an £800 Universal Credit loan.
She even kicked his dad out of the family home because he worked night shifts and was disturbing the infant’s sleep.
Kasey, of Sheffield, said: “As soon as I had my little boy, my obsession changed from how I looked to focusing on my son. What Jareem wants, Jareem gets.

“The last pair of shoes I bought myself were 90p Primark flip-flops.
“On the same day, I bought him Gucci trainers. He likes flashing trainers but I’d never let him walk around in cheap, tacky, horrible trainers.”
Jareem’s daytime routine begins at 6am with a hot breakfast in bed, followed by his luxurious bath using milk and honey.
He then retires to his bedroom for a baby massage while watching Peppa Pig on the big television that once took pride of place in the living room.

Kasey insisted: “If I want to spend the money on my son, that’s my choice.
“I don’t care if I walk around in Primark shoes as long as my prince has the best. He’s the loveliest little boy in the world and I’ve fallen out with friends over how much I’ve spent on him.
“I’ll be wearing charity shop clothes while he’s wearing a £50 T-shirt and, if I had the choice, I would walk around naked so he could wear what he wants.
“My ex-partner showed me my bank statements and said it was ridiculous that I’m spending £250 a week on him.
“Whatever Jareem likes, he gets and, if I can’t afford it, I ring his dad and get the money. I’m not working at the moment.
“I do all this on benefits and the help of my ex-partner but he says I’m just chucking his money at Jareem and that’s where his issue comes in.”
Even when her own bed broke, she still chose to put her son first — splashing out £300 on a tractor bed for Jareem, while she had to sleep on a mattress.
On top of his all-organic diet, she refuses to let him drink tap water over fears he will develop breasts because of oestrogen levels — and sacked her former nanny for disobeying the rule.
Devoted Kasey added: “He still wakes up five times a night. Apparently, I’m too soft with him, but if you had a child in the middle of the pandemic you would be the same.
“He’s never seen a slice of white bread in his life and what I eat, he eats — he likes olives, he likes grilled peppers. Everyone says he has such a refined palate.
“My ex-partner works nights and I told him he couldn’t stay in the house because he was upsetting my prince’s routine.
“His dad always says that when he turns 18 he’ll get a girlfriend and move out but I say, ‘No, we’ll have bunk beds when he’s too old to share a bed with me’.
“I spent £1,000 on a solid gold dummy and he chucked it in the middle of town and lost it. I cried for three days — his dad calls me a “madam who’s creating a monster”.

The former dancer and model takes Jareem to the barber’s for a trim once a fortnight and the lad even gets a mini pedicure at a nail salon.
And she has forked out £200 on having his palm read over the past year — because he cannot talk and she wants to know what he likes and what his favourite colour is.
