For someone lucky enough to live in France with Maison du Monde and all those gorgeous affordable home shops, she really does an exceptional job of making terrible interior design decisions.

Alot of time and trouble being taken with Nancy's ensuite bathroom, even a mention of their own, but none of Seths tho, does he not get a bathroom? He'll probably have to share with the bloody lodger. It’s sad how subconsciously they treat him as an after thought.

 

[Rosie Tatler]

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.

Yes I thought wooh he is wound up about the “ curtain twitchers” querying them selling the house

He had a rant about the government and banks like a real tin hatter but you didn't mind making a big profit on the house you sold !

Made a big thing about the money from the house making interest in the bank , well I think you would find the value of the house would have gone up more than that interest !

The way he talked about and touched Ferns boobs was very uncomfortable and you could tell she didn't like it

Used to think he was ok but can now see he is controlling big head

Why does she even bother with you tube the views are pathetic

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.

Some good points there, yes I also cringe when she talks about " naughty foods" It'll be interesting to see how Nancy grows up with such an image conscious mum.

Maybe if she learned the language or at least tried to learn and speak the language of the country she's chosen to live in she would find the people there a bit friendlier and open to chat, but currently she's an English woman who's made zero effort and why should the French speak English to accommodate her?

 

[Scar2016]

Does anyone know how she can afford to buy the designer clothes and jewellery? That Van Celebes bracelet is four grand unless it’s a knock off.

How actually successful is Ryan’s business? And why on earth did they sell their house to hole themselves up in a tight fitting apartment for four people with literally no garden?

 

[dressagediva]

I have watched her from the start I dont understand why they sold their lovely pink house near Cannes and now moved into a caravan , bit strange , but she is genuine and lovely

They flip houses - they did it with their Doncaster house and again with the French villa. It sounds like the next will be another project. With his business/contacts in trade, I bet they make a fortune.

 

[dressagediva]

She actually talked a while ago about not mentioning dieting in front of the children. But she mentions enough other stuff about food that it negates it!

Not sure about the trashy comment?! Seems a bit harsh. She's fine as far as I can tell.

I found it really weird that Ryan's staff used to live in the house with them, even if it was in the guest flat. She was doing their washing!

 

[dressagediva]

Agreed. It is wild to not be learning French while living in France.

 

[Sabbie]

It’s guess it’s totally fine to be trashy If that’s the look you are going for. Going to London to get bladdered and looking like a dogs dinner in the middle of the afternoon in your designer gear is trashy IMHO. No need to film yourself getting trollied.
I don’t want to turn this into an anti rave thread, but wanted to answer why I called her trashy when goes home or with her friends. I don’t think she’s trashy all the time.

Like @dressagediva mentioned, she really has turned herself around quite a lot since her TM appearance, and she does deserve credit for that. If she started to learn to speak French it will open so many doors for her. I hope she gets enough confidence to go for it. I know she says she always struggled with school, but she’s probably a lot smarter than she thinks she is.

Well Ryan and Fern actually never makes any mention of him. Nothing. Not at christmas or Birthdays. They have briefly shown his brother and spoken of his sister and a grand parent was once mentioned but mum and dad never.

 

[Anicecuppa]

They have just returned from the UK and Fern has had so much filler put into her cheeks that she can hardly move her face and her eyes have disappeared!!

I thought she looked different !

 

[Rosie Tatler]

So the latest bandwagon she has jumped on is hating consumerism , yeh right

But doesn't mind supporting chinese gangsters and people traffickers by spending 120 euros in nails / pedicures . Hope you gave the girl directly a big cash tip Fern because she probably getting paid peanuts if at all ! Not a good look , do your research !

Next she will be in London visiting the American Sweet shops on Oxford Street for all the yummeh good stuff !

 

[Missy sissy]

I think she feels a bit lost now that the kids are getting older. She's missing a structure and a purpose in her daily life. Something she probably found in her garden in their house before.
Everyone else in the family is settled with a job or school, they have daily contacts with colleagues or classmates. The kids have their friends that they see after school. And Fern is just trying to fill her days with meaningless activities and she knows it. She's not happy and probably lonely, you can tell... Especially when she mentioned, she would love to take the kids out of school so they could learn from life.
That's more for her benefit than for the kids, to stop her feeling lonely and make her feel wanted.
But I don't think the kids are up for that, except maybe if they could game all day, watch tiktoks and go shopping. A lot of kids wouldn't mind that

 

[Sabbie]

Was so nice to see so much love for her nan. To have that much fuss and family and friends around when you are 90. How lucky. Her mum’s house is lovely too.

 

[Sabbie]

Wow. And the filled fake false teeth look. Lovely. Why do women do this to themselves. Poor Nancy doesn't have a chance in hell, does she?

 

[Anicecuppa]

I laughed so hard when she said she hated consumerism my dog woke up in a fright !

 

[tarteauxfruits]

I work in construction in France, there are a lot of illegal workers around the Côte d'Azur, a lot have worked in Britain so speak English and Ryan doesn't speak a word of French, and the jobs he is doing aren't big earners once you take out social charges at 46% on every euro made. This is where expats come unstuck, If you don't keep up to date with the payments the government will hold your bank accounts until you do. Something isn't right behind the facade, fernie doesn't seem to be the kind of women to move from a villa into an apartment, don't they have two kids and pets. In my opinion their life is fake unless they have parents helping them out. If one thinks about it, they left Doncaster and went to the French Rivera in their mid thirties.

 

[Libbub]

I think they like the attention. She's been on TV in the past, on morning TV talking about how much she spends on designer clothes for her daughter and " Don't tell the bride "
I wonder what the story is with her friend ? She seems very glam and not short of a Bob

Definitely not. I think the woman that's always with her is the hired help.
Yeah I think Fern and hubby like an audience and have tried over the years to get onto TV.
Also , not sure if she still dies, but Nancy has an Instagram account, run by mum obvs, that showcases kids clothing. She must get given alot and there's alot of ads and aff too.

 

[dressagediva]

As dense as she can be, she was definitely kidding with the cat dog comment.

Her cheeks have made my week though
