Just noticed she’s linked another affiliate link for clothing today. I used to think people were actually flooding her dms about her brands and I don’t doubt people ask but it feels like just posting pics solely for the sake of linking the clothes. Even when she’s at an angle when we can’t even fully tell what it looks like. Her prerogative..just feels like the ad revenue money is what the aim is now. It was already started to get old seeing them promote a new car in each new vlog, because it felt like they were only doing it because there was a kick back. We liked the down to earth people struggling along with good humor and funny reactions, not the influencer version.
Edit: misspelling

I think James originally thought it would be easy money,not realising the amount of work involved. James comes across very lazy,treating Clair like a glorified housekeeper, in turn she often comes across resenting him and taking every available opportunity to make fun or belittle him. After seeing old interviews with Clair,back when she was a glamour model,she openly admitted she wanted to marry someone rich so she didn't have to work and would have 'staff',although they have a nice lifestyle I get the feeling it's not the celebrity life of luxury she wanted. James is tight fisted until he's spending money on himself. I loved the original down to earth vlogs,was much more relatable, then they started involving their so called celebrity friends which came across very pretentious, where are vlogs with their neighbour John were funny and enjoyable

Blimey didn't know that about Claire!
Yes the down to earth vlogs were good, they could literally just sat on the sofa just chatting for 20 mins and it was good, how long does it take to put out a 20 minute vlog weekly? I've unsubscribed.

How crap is it that she has no real skills to earn a living so is posting endless undisclosed Aff links to earn pennies. James needs to stop being so lazy and start earning some money before Clair finds someone with a successful career and money,to keep her in the bone idol lifestyle she craves

I think she likes the lifestyle he gives her, he only has to do a few cameos in one day to earn more than we can in a week!

She lives in a nice house,but always seems miserable, with endless laundry and cleaning,definitely wouldn't swap lifestyles,I'm much happier working for a living, earning a decent salary and not relying on a man to pay the bills. He treats her like a glorified housekeeper most of the time.

Similar to other posters, I think they like easy money.

James said he charges £40 per Cameo and has done 'tens and tens of thousands, maybe thirty, forty thousand' 1.6 million for short form content he can record from anywhere.

Comparatively, they probably find Vlogging, Editing and Podcasting more effort - but acknowledge they need to maintain some public interest otherwise opportunities may dry up.

Her IG stories from 5 hours ago are of her dog and another together, I don’t think they’ve gone to the wedding. She wouldn’t miss an opportunity to post a pouting selfie if she had

I wonder if Clair reads here,yesterday she posted 2 pouting pictures,which is almost a full day's work for her. I hope she didn't break a sweat or neglect her permanent laundry mountain trying to prove a point. I really shouldn't be a witch because their older vlogs really are funny and a good watch the past 18 months they have appeared to only show interest in YouTube or trying to interact on IG when they have something to sell or promote,even the vlog relies on subscribers to provide most of their content,while editing etc is done by someone else. Hardly the epitome of a hardworking couple. They are popular,if I were James, in particular,he should take advantage of his/their popularity,actually show commitment to vlogs, even if not weekly, they'd probably get more sponsors if they were reliable. He has the opportunity to make money. His cameos will eventually dry up. James not only has a family to support but manager/agent who will take a percentage of his earnings.

The vlogs were fun when it wasn't about monetising them!

Totally agree,but I think James is quite tight fisted,but enjoys the trappings of fame he's possibly quite lazy as well. In his eyes he thinks doing a play for a few months is the same as any other dad working a full time job. He previously mentioned when the boys were babies he turned down lots of work because he didn't want to miss out on being with his boys, but the vlogs highlighted how often he'd either be sleeping off a hangover or doing his own thing while Clair would take the boys out. Maybe he saw an excuse to turn down work. We all need to earn a living to support ourselves or our families,but in his line of work he has a very limited time to do that especially when he isn't on tv or performing.
