Beyond Chelsea

[foxycleopatratinkerbell]

I think Rosie comes across horrifically in this. She’s self absorbed, thinks she’s better than anyone else when in reality, her life seems empty. Binky out of touch but looks fulfilled with her children. Lucy surprisingly the most likeable and down to earth.

Just watched the 2nd episode. Why does Binky act like she’s the only mother in the world to have kids and work! And most mothers don’t have a Nanny, PA and actually have a real job.

I really wanted to love this programme but I’m finding it really dull and boring

Me too! It feels like the same boring influencer type things like talking about how busy they are when they're rich and able to renovate their houses and have nannies etc.

I find Rosie the worst at all. I don't know who is interested in her these days to keep her making any money.

What???!!!!! I can’t believe how much those plastic bag things are. That’s crazy. I am actually shocked.

 

[Soph101]

Rosie’s bag inserts have officially launched. What on earth is this pricing for some plastic?

 

[TheArtisticMouse]

Rosie always came across as quite robotic and emotionally detached in MIC. It’s why I always found the “Hugo affair” a bit unbelievable at the time - she didn’t seem like she was into kissing anyone, let alone a drunken affair!

I guess considering they're for bags which can cost tens of thousands, to the target market the inserts probably seem very affordable.

So is that it then for Beyond Chelsea? What a let down, after all the fuss they made over themselves doing it

I'm really liking Lucy...she's being pretty open and I like the little family she has. I'm actually finding Binky hugely annoying. She is literally acting like she's the only working mum in the world. I'm actually hating watching her and I liked her in MIC. Rosie, I've never liked, but I'm finding her slightly more watchable in this than MIC. I wonder if she just comes across wrong because when she talks about her nephews she seemed to have lots of emotion and she always came across as a heartless bitch in MIC.

Rosie’s sister has 42k followers so fair game for tattle- she seems a massive self promoter, don’t get why she’s never on the shows? She seems to just make Rosie do all the embarrassing stuff and reap the benefits

 

[MayVis]

The dynamic between the three was interesting. I haven’t followed them since they left the show but it felt very much like Lucy was a spare part. I don’t remember her having much in common with the other two.

It was nice to see Ollie and Tiff. I wonder if any other previous cast members will pop up?

Agreed. I always quite liked Lucy though to be fair.
I wonder if Rosie is like that from feeling unfulfilled and trying to cover it. She did say she wants children…

 

[HarrisD]

Curious… was Binkys daughter in the episode? Or just the boys

Perhaps her daughter’s Dad - was his name JP? Didn’t want her on the show given his experience on. Reality tv.
Was sad to see Binkys Mum has MS and how they are all struggling with it

Anyone watching?

Found the first episode quite interesting although feeling slightly inferior .

I follow the Louise Thompson thread - wonder why she was dropped from the show?

 

[Bubble18]

Just watched. Lucy was best friends with Binky on the show but it's obvious that it was only for the show. She seems like such an afterthought whereas Binky Louise and Rosie were actually friends. Lucy on the show was always a second choice to Louise (dates with Andy when he wanted Louise, flirting with Spencer while he was with Louise, etc.) So it's funny to think that she was second choice with getting on the spinoff too. It reminds me of The Hills with Kristin coming second to LC and even taking over the show when LC left.

When Binki has the silver trousers on while commenting in blue room it’s just me or the is she extremely nasally? It’s really bad

I would’ve quite liked to have seen her in the show.

I enjoyed it. They actually all came across as quite down to earth normal girls, albeit with a very privilege life.

Rosie doing omaze

I have to admit, while I'm not a fan of hers I do like some of the Rosie Fortescue jewellery. Obviously she's had financial privilege to start up the business and wealthy connections but I think she genuinely does work hard on it.
She does loads of ads on Instagram too, which can't be called hard work but she probably makes a lot from it.

 

[Libbub]

I think it's truly dreadful. I won't be watching anymore.
