Personal Life
She was born in England and has three sisters. Her two younger sisters are twins named Alice and Jessica and her older sister is Charlotte.
Career
Hartridge began creating YouTube videos in listicle form back in 2012. Her first YouTube video was called "10 Reasons Why I Wish I Was 12 Again," and she repurposed it into a series called "10 Reasons Why..." where she gave her take on modern topics like sex, relationships, love, and gender. At the height of the show's popularity the Daily Mail and The Huffington Post recapped her episodes after she'd upload them.
Eventually, she started presenting TV shows such as 4OD’s "Oh Shit I’m 30" and Virgin Media's "Jacked In". Emily has interviewed actors like Eddie Redmayne and Hugh Jackman. During a press run for the 2012 filmRock Of Ages, Russell Brand ended up licking cake off of her elbow. The media blew it out of proportion and speculated romance even though they were only friends.

On July 12, 2019, Hartridge was killed when her electric scooter collided with a truck at about 8:30 am on Queenstown Road in Battersea, South London. Hartridge was pronounced dead at the scene by the London ambulance service. Her death was notorious as Britains first electric scooter fatality. [7]
