Josie Bates’ recent move has fans wondering if she is at odds with her sister, Carlin, and sister-in-law, Whitney.

Josie Bates Balka makes an exciting business decision.

As TV Shows Ace reported on Monday, Josie announced that her online store, The Effortless Shop, will soon be offering jewelry. Until now, it has featured a variety of hair accessories. But she is excited to expand her business and sell an even wider collection of accessories.

At this point, Josie hasn’t revealed when the jewelry collection will launch. But she will likely let fans know when it gets closer.

Bringing Up Bates fans think she’s stealing Carlin & Whitney’s ideas.

On Reddit, fans reacted to Josie’s announcement. And fans can’t help but notice that she could be copying her sister, Carlin, and sister-in-law, Whitney.

If you didn’t know, Carlin and Whitney run the Bates Sisters Boutique, which is an online women’s clothing store. They also offer jewelry. One Reddit user pointed out that Josie Bates’ store is now competing with the Bates Sisters Boutique. Previously, there was no overlap in their products.

One fan shared their input and wrote:

“Josie copies Carlin as much as Carlin copies Josie. Carlin had her business first, and expanded it to include things other than clothes. Josie copied her and created a shop that sells similar things.”

Fans will have to wait and see how similar the jewelry is to determine whether Josie Bates might have copied her sister and sister-in-law. Some Bringing Up Bates fans argue that jewelry is simply a smart step for Josie if she wants to continue to grow her business. One fan said, “Jewelry is actually a logical leap from hair accessories.”

So, do you think that Josie Bates is trying to steal Whitney and Carlin’s ideas? Or do you think she simply thought this was a good business move? Sound off in the comments section below, and come back to TV Shows Ace for more Bringing Up Bates news.
