Yep, sounds all too familiar. I can't go into too many details about the latest drama but honestly you would laugh. they've been divorced 11 years.

Not to mention that, in return, they NEVER believe anybody who has genuine illnesses, injuries or disabilities. Or experience/knowledge of any given area if the person represents a threat, an equal or anything other than the saintlike paragon person they aspire to be. The bluetickers, basically; they can do no wrong.
One of mine believes that all illnesses are completely in the mind and to cure them, you have to want to get better, lose weight and exercise. Despite being 'allergic' to an ever increasing list of foods, recipes and ingredients that are healthy. Lots of utter shite about toxins poisoning him. If you don't cure yourself entirely, that's because you want to be unwell. Oh, and the use of psychoactive substances is abhorrent when it's prescribed, but if they are purchased from some tosser who owns a nice car in the next town, they are a perfectly reasonable addition to take away of awfulness of being around other people's disgusting existence.
And the feuds/targeting that goes on. There's always somebody to hate.
Thank you, it does feel sometimes like it will never end but at the same time I'm kind of used to it and like I say I can often predict when there's going to a drama manufactured.
Hate quoting myself but it's just occurred to me that this is the recipe for self love stew, which was the main lead in her promotional drive for her most recent book but which was actually a recycled recipe from Cooking on a Bootstrap? I thought it was a new one, why was she putting this front and centre for her new book when it was already written and available?
This is fascinating. So, no one gives a tit about her cooking, it's all about the drama.

All the descriptors of a narc = my ex. So damaging to many.
@heretoreaditall2019 was it the other thread you mentioned it on 
ffs I’m an idiot! I’m so pleased for you, though. I had a particularly complicated first pregnancy, so I know a little of how stressful and strange it all is, I wish I could impart on you some kind of reassurance and chilled vibes, but it’s so hard to get that across and it’s easy to say “everything will be fine” when you’re on the other side of it. With my first baby I did all the classes and stuff, read all the books, had a plan down to the most minute detail, but was super stressed and had pre-existing health issues. Second one just kind of hardly had time to think, third one I pretty much just rocked up to the hospital, ordered a takeaway and pulled him out myself (I’m not even joking). You’re so clever and thoughtful, you’ll be a fantastic mum. The baby will be doing excel spreadsheets at her six week check

You’re so clever and thoughtful, you’ll be a fantastic mum. The baby will be doing excel spreadsheets at her six week check This is hilariously self-indulgent. The way her voice gets slower as she reads her “self-love-stew” as if she’s trying to be soothing. Self love means something else to me
Also we can’t ignore her obligatory poverty lies. The way she says a really bad thing happened, implies that it’s traumatic, and it’s to do with PoVeRtY, but she’ll never say what happened is so attention seeking. Also noted is that she describes her (choice to briefly live in) poverty as staying around like a bad hangover. No love, for most people it’s just their normal reality. It’s not an after effect of something you chose 7 years ago.
I don't understand how YouTube and watermarks work but she really is a bleep, who needs to explain who Noel Fitzpatrick is, much less say 'the telly'. She's not someone off Coronation Street ffs.Probably already repeating loads, but I scanned the kitten video just because I was sure she would mention the £700 quid for the xrays. Of course she did. She's every bit as terrible as I think she is.
Embarrassing that she's watermarked it so heavily, as if this would go viral and be re-posted

To be honest I'm surprised she's not got Fibromyalgia or something of that ilk , don't get me wrong, people genuinely have these diagnoses and rightly so, however, they are often exploited by people with similar behaviours to JM. Mainly because it's difficult to diagnose.
awww this is lovely, thank you so much my love cos after today I’m feeling a bit overwhelmed as to wtf will happen now so it’s a really lovely message to read. It’s terrifying isn’t it@heretoreaditall2019 was it the other thread you mentioned it on
sorry I’m not more articulate in responding back I should have napped earlier but didn’t so I’m half here now 
I wonder how long it’ll take our JM to return to her usual scandals? Sadly she likely won’t do any more cotswolds thot shots for a bit, I think they’re my fav social media outbursts
I WILL NOT REST UNTIL I FIND OUT WHAT BIG ANNOUNCEMENT THESE WERE MEANT TO BE PROMOTING!!!Sadly she likely won’t do any more cotswolds thot shots for a bit, I think they’re my fav social media outbursts
Does anyone think Jack can salvage her career after this past few months?
I think she needs to hire an agent/PR person, and have someone else controlling her social media. I think she’s probably permanently blown her chance at being a TV cook though.

Putin on the line to Jackie Neeson, in need of her special triangulation skills:
Thanks for the input, I hope your own challenges are manageable. And to say, most likely she’s just a complete hole. Larry David done a comedy episode on a similar theme, funnily enough.
On an unrelated point, I keep putting myself in the shoes of her parents. Dunno why, but can just wonder/fully imagine that she’s always been a complete nightmare. And not to mention her friends.. I mean, really, it makes you wonder if those that know her are aware of the fact that she lies. They must know, must see through all of it, but play along to keep the peace. Must be exhausting.
Don't!
Honestly though, they get this wrong a lot. Don't get freaked out by it. They told me my first baby was about 10lb, second was supposedly 9lb and tiny baby was another 10lber..... they were all under 7lb at full term.
Glad it all went well.
Oh, same - they got it wrong for me as well. They told me my second would be 10 lbs and he was 8 lbs 12Don't!

(still sizeable, mind but not quite what I had been told to expect!
I almost forgot the whole Hellmans project happened only a few weeks ago because of all the drama that has happened since! What a rollercoster.
She's unmanageable - she clearly can't work with people, because she's always mooing about how she does everything herself. She'll write another book of slop-recipes, that's all she has left.
Jackie of all trades, master of none!!
