I have tea on her husband. The more I read, the more I want to spill!
Please don't tell us half a story. Spill the 🍵, I'm intrigued as to what you know about Nico 🤔
Don't worry we won't tell anyone plus Elle won't know who you are, or does she? 🤞

She storied a while ago to say that they had remortgaged to pay for the extension. She also works for her dad’s business from home.
Not sure she storied it but she definitely said it on here in response to something I wrote. The extension cost £100,000+ and they bought it all themselves except the washing machine which was "payment for an advert". That really ducked me off but I have documented my grievance about that more than once so I won't go into it again.

The thing is, despite what she says, her husband must earn at least £200,000 a year - that's being conservative and not taking into consideration bonuses. She denied that on here but I worked in the mortgage industry for 24 years, I know what bankers earn. And he's a trader in oil commodities. I mean, COME ON! And unless I see a pay slip, I'm sticking with it. They don't need her money to support their mortgage even with another £100,000 on top. He's clearly a workaholic and very well paid for what he does. His family also clearly have serious money. Have you seen their house? Plus their holiday home in Cornwall and probably a few more we don't know about. I think his father owns a trucking company.

Big time into the gak I reckon. That's what traders do isn't it? And probably some pretty seedy stuff from his rugby days. That's my guess.

I've never known what Nico did for work, just that he was never home 🤣. Is he a bit older than Elle? Or is it the long days taking their toll?

I don't buy that at all that he earns that much money. If you earn't that money you would be out all the time, going on holiday etc ....... she is always at home (boring), never goes on holiday apart from Cornwall & dresses like a 50 year old women. I actually think she is telling the truth.

Not necessarily, depending where the live ect 200k might not be that much for a household! Not everyone spends their money showing off going on holiday 5 times a year.. I like her style too but I am a 80 year old in a 28 year olds body sooooo😂

If he’s an oil trader, at his age he will certainly be on a 200k base for a Director, and probably around £150k bonus on top, depending on how well his bank does, made up of cash and vested stock. She might make out her life is simple and lean, but they’d need this as a single salary where they live.

She lives in Surrey.... that’s your answer. In probably one of the most desirable parts. To me, it looks like they have the best of everything... her clothes, house and choice of holiday may not be to everyone’s taste; but you can tell she doesn’t scrimp on stuff. Cornwall is a very expensive holiday destination, my in laws go twice a year (they live in Surrey) I’d rather hop on a plane for the same price and go to Spain (oh when we could!). Each to their own I guess. My in laws are very wealthy too, and if I was as fortunate as them, I would probably prioritise my money differently to them. That’s my two pence anyway.

She is most definitely not struggling.
Godalming isn’t cheap. But style wise they all blend into one (RVK comes to mind ) even Elle’s kitchen is same as RVK’s. I personally find her style bland and predictable but of course each to their own. However they are definitely not short of cash.

I think it’s very clear she lives a very comfortable life money wise! I initially started following her for the infertility side of things in her blog she’s openly writes she does it so she can feel connected to people and not feel like the only one in the infertility or baby loss boat, which is a fair point I followed her for the same reason! But I quickly realised she actually doesn’t seem like a very nice person!
There’s loads of ivf / fertility intagramers out there some of who are very informative and their accounts probably do offer comfort to people. While elles may have started out like this it’s turned into a self indulgence project the same as the majority of mum bloggers.
If she doesn’t want to share her child fair enough totally get that but then why put the odd photo up that is clearly going to invite questions just don’t put those photos up and prob no one will ask!!!

I think Elle had an account on here as she did come on to defend herself but can't find the posts. This would've been over a year ago. I will keep searching....
