I'm not going to knock her dress, each to their own. It's the staggering privilege that gets me. I know it's not her fault but I googled her brother to see what he did for a 'living' and he went to Rugby school then immediately became maitre'd at The Wolseley then Soho House then onto Newscorp. These opportunities just wouldn't present themselves to Finlo if he went to a comp in Dunstable would they?
Same for Em. Lots of talented authors struggle to get published because of lack of “audience” (read: insta following). The ones that do manage to get published tend to come from oxbridge type unis (think Sally Rooney, who went to Trinity and who had her books picked up without even trying too hard). JK struggled in the 90s to get published - nowadays she almost certainly wouldn’t be.
But Em? Somehow managed to get two books published pre-Instagram account in her early 20s. This is all despite not having any big platform or any real experience in writing or having a literary education.
I posted a little while back an article in which Jeremy Clarkson is practically bragging about nepotism. I’d bet my life on him having pulled strings for his kids.
It’s not their fault for being born to wealth and privilege but it
is a lack of character when they just accept and coast along on that privilege while pretending it doesn’t exist.
what's she trying to prove
all the other blue tick influencers brown nosing it too, I can’t deal
I don’t understand her. It didn’t work whatever she was trying to do.
agree the hair and shoes aren’t great.
