Have to agree. I know he's not a fan favourite but I've always found him attractive and age definitely works in his favour haha

On the topic of couples looking alike, Vicky McClure of Line of Duty fame posted a picture of her with her fiancé and they look really alike too. Sorry 😬

She did used to seem down to earth when I first watched her years ago, when they were in the old house they rented with woof, then they bought that massive house and she seemed to become increasingly full of herself! Needless to say I stopped following her a while ago, I find her very unrelatable, even though she’s a mum now!
I agree. I've followed her since 2012 when she used to film hauls and foundation reviews, I'm not even scared to say that I was a bit of a fan girl and because she used to push affordable fashion all those lovely things we saw her wear and all wanted for ourselves was attainable. Her video's were fun, genuine, interesting and authentic. Now I know she's wealthy through her own work and I'm truly pleased to see that she made a successof her channel, I know she's wealthy through her husband and I KNOW the transition into motherhood and balancing work can be challenging but for God sake be transparent about it. As a long time fan I've become so disillusioned with her, she seems to hide behind this sanctimonious vegan lifestyle but still flaunts about in and continues to buy £400 leather jackets and shearling coats from All Saints, her hauls boast a number of £200+ dresses and then justifies her purchases by saying it's better to spend hundreds on one staple piece than £30 on a fast fashion item I mean how tone deaf can you be in the middle of a pandemic whilst people are struggling to clothe their newborn babies. I mean I don't think she's even acutely aware that HER life is unattainable for many of her followers, and whilst she's moved up the financial ladder a lot of us are still in relatively the same positions as we were when we first started watching her. Now to top it all off she's putting out the odd obligation video whilst ramming tonnes of affiliate and sponsored posts down our throats via instagram. As I said I know life is a bit different when kids come along but just be transparent with your followers and say the channel will change due to family obligations- there's nothing to comdemn about wanting to he present with your family. Fans deserve better especially when your success and recognition is built partly off the back of our time, and our money when we click your affiliate links to purchase products from your platforms.

I actually really liked her. The relaxed vlogs with Mike and the dogs with the odd product chucked it, it felt real. Her press trips were fun to watch even when the brands went totally over the top and spent hundreds of thousands to launch a mascara! The past two years have seen her turn into a prissy, entitled, money grabbing monster that “works with” brand after brand in pointless, boring, poorly disguised ads. It’s like watching QVC. I actually think she thinks we are stupid. Lazy “new this month” vlogs and quick shopping hauls to disguise a channel that is a mere shadow of what it was. There is nothing left in her channel that led me to hit the subscribe button in the first place. This year alone she has worked with at least 50 brands and was recently flogging flea collars because she really “believes in the product”, she also “really believes”in Lenor, Monika Vader, Hello Fresh, Jo Malone ....I could fill a book, a large book! The final straw was when she came on Instagram a couple of weeks ago saying “ could anyone recommend a good kitchen company” because she wants to renovate her huge, sprawling mansion. This was sooo obviously a plea for sponsorship it was nauseating! How about spending your own, very easily earned, money for once you greedy woman. I know it’s a job but there has to be some balance, something in it for the viewer? I think she is panicking and milking the gravy train for as long a she can. When more babies come along I can see her giving it all up and judging by her latest content I think she should!

I’m confused how her sister sent the bar cart to her set up?! She makes a slip when she’s talking about it saying “had pineapples and lots of other things set up on it” So did the postman deliver, unpack and set it up or did we have a little bit of sneaky traveling going on over Christmas as her sister is in tier 4

I never got the impression she sent it set up, but maybe that's me interpreting it wrong.

Well, she said at least twice that she had a lovely Christmas and that it was different "for everyone" but did not say who she spent Christmas with. If it had been only Mike and River she would have said. My guess is her entire side of the family got together and, because she's not stupid, she rather didn't say anything at all about how they celebrated. Watch the beginning of the new video, it's quite telling how she words it. I don't know (or care) if they broke any rules with that but I understand why she wouldnt mention it.

The photo she posted on Christmas day, I think it must have been on stories because I can't see it now I remember thinking that it didn't look like their kitchen/house but then again there are so many rooms who bloody knows!

I think she did something she thinks might attract disapproval so she’s avoiding specifics. Agreed if it had been just the 3 of them I think she’d have said so.

And it's probably the smart thing to do in this case. I don't know the exact rules in the UK and I would imagine many other viewers outside the UK don't either. So having to explain would probably complicate matters more so she kept it unspecific.

Yeah I think she was at her mums at Christmas. Maybe they all self isolated in order to spend the day together?
I think she said in a vlog they'd started minimising outside contact in order to see her mum over christmas. Not that they would have had to anyway by law.

I think even if she did something within the rules people would still say she shouldn’t have done it because of the high numbers. I can see why people would, it’s scary. Fleur is generally quite savvy hence no specifics.

On Christmas Day, regardless of tiers, up to three households could meet.
