I haven't watched any of their videos in a long time...I have again recently with the quarantine going on, and I end up having mixed feelings, because Dianne seems more natural to me now and less trying to be Joe's funny, dim girlfriend, but you still have those moments where he has to make a dig about her saying or doing something wrong. Some of it feels scripted (in one video she says "renegay" instead of "renegade"), but then there are other times like when she has a hard time getting a playlist set up and he makes sure to jab at her.
I don't know these people and I don't really want to paint their relationship as him passive-aggressively keeping her in her place, and I'm sure she can give her own back. Still I just don't feel good when I see that type of stuff. It's unfortunate because I like that Dianne is doing this for fans - I know that she isn't passing out meals or handing out cash, but the dance classes and yoga and exercise videos and things are a good way to help give a lot of restless, disappointed people a sense of routine and togetherness - and it's nice that Joe seems to be, for the most part, genuinely going along with her efforts, but I just wish he would treat her with a little more respect.
I feel the same, I for one would like Joe to respect her a bit more, but if she don't say anything to him about it, he's just going to keep speaking to her like that.
I actually watched some of Dianne's latest vlog, I skimmed through parts of it, so I may have missed bits. But is it just me or does Dianne do pretty much everything around the house while Joe plays video games? From what I gathered from this video & Dianne's recent social media, she was cleaning the kitchen yesterday, she makes all the meals, makes him tea, she also prepares & does live workouts & dance routines most days, as well as set videos. Then today, she was doing the vaccuming & laundry.
I haven't watched any in the pan episodes, so maybe Joe works on those. And Yeah he has Margarvine, but how involved has he ever really had in that, considering he was on Strictly, Strictly live tour, the West end, and going on his tour with Dianne before it was postponed.So he is more of a figure head & appears in some of their clients videos.
Anyways my point is Joe appears to sit in his office playing games, sometimes does Dianne's lives, but other then that he only comes up for air when he is called for dinner. Honestly, Dianne is becoming more like his mother, or a housekeeper who he rides.
