What's the betting that Rachel is married to some old (but rich) creep? 🤣 I'm not getting bad vibes off her though, she seems ok to me.

Looking forward to seeing what awful z-lister things Fern goes to next with her!
No she's divorced. She did a Q&A a while back. Not sure if they're still there but if you scroll back through her feed there were pictures of her wedding. Didn't last long as far as I could make out. He wasn't an older man, and when I looked him up it looks like he's moved on.
Don't know if she's got a boyfriend now.

I am really torn about her. She really annoys me that she cannot speak French after this long living there. That’s just unforgivable and a total embarrassment. I hate it when she talks about “naughty food” or weight issues in front of her kids, especially her daughter for obvious reasons. She’s trashy as hell when she gets back home or with her friends. She’d be a lot more enjoyable if she wasn’t so utterly obsessed with what she looks like.

But on the other hand she clearly puts thought into her content. I like it when she she shares her meal ideas as the food always looks good. Moving to France has obviously been a great thing for their kids and they seem to be flourishing at school which would have never happened back home. She seems to have a good heart and clearly loves her kids to death. I mean, we all do, but YKWIM.

There is something weird about the moving, etc. Some people think they never even owned that villa before. And yes, moving into that creepy rental is so out of character. My theory is they are having to cut their costs and are saving up to build somewhere if they can find a plot…or who knows. The husband acts like an arse, but I would not say no to someone who can do everything around the house. 😆

I've just found court documents relating to Ryan redressement judiciare in France. As of 2023 his French business was already into over 300k of debt that he was unable to pay back. Over 200k of Covid fund relief and multiple loans, overdrafts etc. Can I remind you that his English business was going into liquidation at the same time for over 400k of liabilities.

THESE PEOPLE NEED TO BE STOPPED, THEIR FAKE LIVES AND GRIFTING HAVE TO END.

here is the court document.

I have often wondered why she bothers with YT as her views are rubbish and will be paying her peanuts especially with how intrusive it was in the kids lives etc I used to think it well maybe it is like a hobby for a rich businessman's wife and thats all it is

But maybe it was all for the facade of that image to promote how successful Ryan was and to move in the right circles to pick up contracts etc .
Otherwise they would have been plain Ryan and Fern from Doncaster not Ryan and his YT Influencer wife Fern !

Or maybe she is just a narc that loves herself too much !

I disagree. She's now living permanently in France. She SHOULD learn the language. She's made zero effort on that front. I mean only the other day she pointed out that she hadn't had her nails done since moving to France as she couldn't tell the nail tech what she wanted.
Agreed they only seem to mix with other ex pats. Shame really.
French women generally have an understated classiness about them.

She uses a face smoothing filter all the time you can tell especially when Ryan and the kids are in the shot with her and their faces are smoothed too ! It looks ridiculous like her face is like a plastic barbie ! She is one treatment away from looking ridiculous

The other week she was shilling some pillows that she says she uses that stop you getting creases and lines on your face , while using a full on face filter !!!

She gives out dietary and supplements advice like she is an expert, quite dangerously in my opinion like telling people to take magnesium , well if you have any kind of Blood pressure or heart problems you definitely should not be taking it !

Ryan seems to have dialled back the conspiracy theory crap , he looks worn out , work not going as well in the south of france ?

Come the summer they are going to hate that tiny flat , compared to the old house with garden and pool ! Im sure its just a flipper

The original interview is with Zingo Bingo, some weird online bingo site that also does clickbait articles. I imagine they were paid for the content.

Can't believe they were only 23 and 21 when they got married! I know that used to be normal but it's about 10 years sooner than most these days.

Wonder whether she's sharing this article because she's angling to redo their 'wedding' as a vow renewal and have a big do for content.

I mean there comes a point when they will have to have this man leave and they're dragging it out. He isn't ready to leave, he's very obviously mentally unwell. I think they perhaps should have dealt with this privately. I don't know how they're gonna make him go, and wheres he going to? He's been evicted. They've bought a repossessed property so this guy has nowhere to go.

She shared a Katie Hopkins reel the other day on Instagram - basically a 'climate change isn't real' weird rant dressed up as a joke. Not what I would have expected from her... Put me off.

I like Fern but her advertising Lilysilk, saying it's sustainable and not fast fashion which she prefers nowadays, shows her ignorance. Especially since Lilysilk is a Chinese company and they produce everything in China. And 5 min later after mentioning she much prefers quality clothing like Lilysilk compared to high street fashion and fast fashion, she's in Mango drooling over their new line 🙄
I much prefer her exploring and housing content.

Two dishwashers but no washing machine ! Wouldn't you put a washing machine where one of the Dishwashers is even if temporarily

Filming your son asleep and him waking up is a bit weird , now he has started a new high school his privacy should be maintained

Blimey, I have a feeling they did not ask the previous owner of their new house whether they could film him; it looks like she has the camera on the side running covertly. GDPR?! A horrible invasion of privacy. He's obviously mentally unwell with a hoarding problem and they're turning his illness into content.

Very uncomfortable viewing.

Not nice to watch is it.
Poor old Seth again, mummy dearest laughing her head off at him for not enjoying the roller coaster, while Nancy gets no end of praise for hanging off a metal bar 🤔
Making him put that paper hat on in the restaurant too , where that food looked horrible!

The reason the French are not as friendly with you is because you refuse to learn french and no speaking english with a french accent doesn't work !!

Whew...how'd you like to be the client of Ryan's who paid for the insulation in Fern and Ryan's attic buildout?
When detailing the cost of this small reno, he says he "struck gold" on what happens to be the most expensive part of the project! He says he "just happened" to have 6,000 euros worth of leftover insulation from a past job...........he details the cost at 37:52

I didn't watch the vlog she put out today. I have zero interest in watching a young girl shop 'til she drops, then coming home to that sofa and showing everyone what she bought. Or watching a Vivaia shoe haul......

What does his business do?
Ryan is hard working and self made. Started as a carpet fitter, then grew a flooring business and eventually office renovation business in Europe (that's why they moved to France). It has now developed into a building company mainly rennovating villas in France. He has his own YouTube channel showing the developments which Fern films and edits. I really admire them but worry that her constant good/bad food narrative might affect her kids' relationship with food.

She hates consumerism guys did you realise? So all those endless vlogs of her buying shit for her kids, buying endless clothes to stay on trend, the Christmas decorations, Easter decorations, she hated every minute.
It's good to see now she's free of the ball and chain that is her own home that she's putting her time to good use. Glad she isn't wasting it by learning to speak the language of the country she's living in but spending it all on her appearance.

It's Seth's birthday but Nancy decides he "has" to share it with her and lo and behold before the boy even had a chance to have any himself she gets first serve of the pancake and the spread. I wonder if she realises what she's doing?

Also re having a mortgage etc, Ryan is clearly a stereo typical Yorkshire man. Tight and doesn't wanna spend his money. Oh wait he's happy to purchase a totally impractical electric car, pay for tax MOT , insurance, electricity to charge it ,but he doesn't want to spend money on a house. Selfish much. As someone in the comments said he should have thought about the cost and taxes of buying a house in France before uprooting his family. We all have bills to pay. That's just life. If you use gas and electricity you have to pay for it. If you value your house and contents you insure it. Simple. I think he's a very selfish man. He's been sucked in by some social media bullshit about not getting into debt. Unless it's a car of course. Fern clearly doesn't have a say. He shouts her down.
---
Also , to add, as per the comments section, a house is only a drain if you're living beyond your means. Renting in the private sector is fine while you can make the rent but what happens if Ryan couldn't work? Or work dried up? Yes of course with an owned house he'd still have a bills but he would still have a roof over his and his family's head. He's thinking like a single man and not a father of two.
