Woman tricks girlfriend into being healthier with sneaky change to her cups of tea

A woman has come under fire after revealing she tricked her girlfriend into getting healthy - as some say her actions are controlling, but others think they're genius.

Sharing the story on TikTok, Charlotte Taundry, who posts under the shared account @charandsarah, reveals how when she started dating her partner, Sarah Hutchinson, she had four sugars in her tea.

But slowly, over time, Charlotte has been reducing that number and now Sarah has just two - but she was completely unaware that Charlotte had been cutting back the sugar.

She said she was just thinking of her health, but some people have said her actions are controlling and asked how she had 'the audacity' to mess with her partner's tea.

How many sugars do you have in your tea? Let us know in the comments...

In the video, Charlotte said: "I've been secretly cutting down the sugars in your cup of tea. When I met you you started with four and now you only have two but you've not noticed the difference because I've done it really gradually.

"I'm thinking about your health."

The video was hosted by Sarah, who looks bemused by the news and pulls a shocked face.

The video has been viewed 297,000 times and has had over 700 comments, and many people are divided about Charlotte's trick.

One said: "My narc ex did this and I just thought I didn't like tea any more."

A second wrote: "Things like this is why I make my own tea."

While a third, named John Simon, added: "How dare Charlotte mess with someone else's cup of tea! The audacity!"

"Talk about controlling," wrote a fourth user. "Do you have to ask for pocket money as well?"

But other users were more concerned by how many sugars Sarah had in her tea, as one said: "Four? You got any teeth left?"

And a second added: "Anyone that says more than two sugars is only getting two in my house fact."

"Four sugars in tea is psychotic," wrote a user named Jack. "She is right to help you as a friend."
