She tried to claim that when she was on here. "Don't you think I'd have had more holidays than just a week in Dubai over the last five years if he earned that?" or something she said. Well no, actually because you have always claimed all your money went on renovating your house and then you were grieving for your child would have been my response (I was actually on holiday myself when she replied and completely forgot about it by the time I got home)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.
There's nothing to suggest he's "played away" at all - just that there is some, as yet unspecified, gossip.I get that many of the people on this thread aren’t Elle fans but don’t you think writing a post about having tea on someone’s husband and then not elaborating is a bit cruel? Youve established in the thread she is watching this thread and whatever you may think of her she’s a new mum probably packed with hormones and feeling abit “rubbish” about herself as many do post partum.... for there to then be a thread which suggests Nico has played away seems a bit unfair and I’d hate to be reading that about my husband without any context.
It's all geographical (I think that's the right word?) because surely if your earning 200k a year with a 600k house in a more expensive part of the country it's the same as someone earning 50k with a 150k house in a cheaper area? Cost of living is different in different parts of the country. With regards to paying for her reno, a trades person here probably works on say £200 a day where someone in Surrey will be working for £500 a day? And like it's been said, she doesn't skimp!She tried to claim that when she was on here.

Like I said, I worked in the mortgage industry for 24 years and dealt with plenty of applications from bankers/traders. I was an underwriter for several years of those - I saw their payslips, I looked at their bank statements, I assessed references from their employers. I know what they earn. He's been with JP Morgan for seven years and he trades in oil. I'm telling you, given the hours he puts in, £200,000 pa basic. She accused me of "just Googling" and making up and figure but I know what I'm talking about.
God I hope see doesn't put another Reno up lets hope she saves that for her private pageApparently they're getting more building work done so can't be too hard up for cash!
Yes they submitted an application 6 months ago for Erection of detached two storey outbuilding and new vehicular access.Apparently they're getting more building work done so can't be too hard up for cash!
Is it the neighbour who had a ‘Shouty’ on site? It’s the payback timeYes they submitted an application 6 months ago for Erection of detached two storey outbuilding and new vehicular access.

I think the loft had been done already....WHATwhere the duck would they put a detached two storey building? Surely not at the bottom of their long narrow garden? That would look most odd! I know she said way back when that they’d like to do a loft conversion with an en-suite so I assumed you were going to say that!
I agree about his wages. They’re minted let’s not pretend they’re notshe’s CONSTANTLY buying stuff and it’s all pricey - no B&M tat for Elle! She might say they don’t have loads of money but that’s subjective in my opinion
our household income is around £45k since I went part time after having kids - I’d say we live comfortably (in a less expensive area than her of course) and to some people we probably even seem “well off”, but I feel like a bloody pauper compared to her and her spending habits!
Its at the end of their garden. Neighbour to the left of them is kicking off saying its blocking his light and is objecting. There has been no update since. The neighbour to the other side who is attached to them hasn't made any comment.WHATwhere the duck would they put a detached two storey building? Surely not at the bottom of their long narrow garden?

Ohhh cue more renos then at GSDIH's.....one starts the other follows.Yes they submitted an application 6 months ago for Erection of detached two storey outbuilding and new vehicular access.

Completely agree. Petty example but the two armchairs they have near the door in their kitchen are £845 EACH in the basic fabric and the pendant above her kitchen table is £485. Imagine all the flights to Dubai you could get with £2,175. IMO there is nothing more insulting/ patronising than a person who is more than comfortable financially trying to make you believe that they’re not. Must think the average peasant won’t clock it. For what it’s worth I don’t give a tit how they or anyone else spends their money, but it bothers me when people have influence over others and represent themselves falsely.She tried to claim that when she was on here.

I assume they just arent into travelling and nothing to do with how much it costsThe whole "we dont go to dubai" is BS to say you dont have money. We have family in UAE and travel there cheaper than our holiday to Cornwallplus she has been to stay near me locally and the location was one if the most expensive in the area...
Yes sorry thays what I meant. You cant use the "we dont go to dubai" to pretend you do / dont have money!!I assume they just arent into travelling and nothing to do with how much it costs
