Bit late to the party but I also enjoyed her latest vlog! She’s always at her most endearing when doing behind the scenes theatre videos. Also I find it interesting how good Carrie is with people when it’s surface level. Like she can strike up conversations with anyone and is really at ease in social situations. But when it comes the deeper, longer term interpersonal relationships, she struggles. I’m basically the complete opposite in that regard haha.
She seemed remarkably sad to me though at the start of the video. Like her demeanour and even facial expressions have changed so much in the last year. She deffo warmed up a bit as the video went on after spending time with her cast mates. But again, for a newly engaged woman who’s supposedly head over heels in love with her soulmate, she’s not giving off that vibe at all. And seeing as this relationship is barely 6 months old, she should still very much be in the glowing honeymoon stage?
Joel is deffo coming across far less unhinged these days. Either he’s had a stern talking to, or he’s feeling more secure in their relationship now they’re engaged. Tbh I always felt like his nonsense around ‘not doing well without her’ when she went to Disney was bs. He was just burning with jealously about not being invited on what would’ve been his absolute dream trip. Which is still bad because ultimately we got an insight into what he’s like when he doesn’t get his way.
Also upon further reflection that ‘how we got engaged story’ from last weeks live was absolutely awful. If someone you love and who you’ve discussed getting married to sets up a surprise proposal, and you catch onto it, wouldn’t you just go along with things for their sake? Imo it would be cruel to even let them know you’ve guessed. Much less actively work to sabotage the whole thing? How nasty. Either it’s because subconsciously you don’t like this man or want to marry him, or you’re profoundly self absorbed to the point of cruelty. Either way, not a good look.
