Leonora Smee

Strange her badge for the royal enclosure says Miss Leonora Smee. She was on a private box. I have been to the RE many times the protocol is that you have your married name and Mrs title especially if you’re attending with your husband. Why would a married woman still use the title “Miss”

It's a posh thing. Old cars showcase you can afford to drive and fix an old (and expensive) car.

Except they aren’t old money. Her father is solidly working class.

I remarked on this also a bit back, so strange.

I bet the mother was quite the blonde WAG back in the day!

Leo and mark look amazing . Charlie looks like he could pinch the wheels of your car .

Head and shoulders above the others Leo

Charlie has a "used car salesman" look about him

The light blue on Leonora looks fantastic. Blue is her colour !

Very impressive about Leos brothers rowing. I wouldn't dream he is her brother though!. He does look like their dad though... The brother looks much much older to me?

Loved that vlog, so much fun! Really liked her outfits just praying she'd do straight hair just once.

Side note... Josie looked so skinny and her hair looked like mine does when I get up in the morning - not good

Second side note... Charlie desperately trying to mansplain Leo's brother 🆘️

100%!!!

Charlie could bore the hind legs off a donkey.... plus he looks like a thug.

The visual difference between mark and Chav....

in josies vlog , Josie had a pathetic attempt imo to put Leo in her place re the ODR dress... Josie had clearly asked for Leos advice and to be honest Leo is 100% correct ODLR is OTT for the regatta. the same with the rocketed stilettos (even in the smartest enclosures people wear espadrille wedges!). silly Josie should of taken Leos advice. Wonder why she didn't..... maybe trying to upstage Leo. clear fail

He’s 29

He’s 29

There's an older brother, he was on the rowing board for winning a race at Henley and I think it was 1995 so probably makes him late 40's early 50 I'd say.

And yes the spit of the dad!

I felt sorry for her when she explained about her foot and the many operations she's had for her vascular problems. I like that she shared without doing a whole poor me pity party.

Ohhhhh i see my bad

 

[ella1979]

I’m guessing he’s a full brother ? .. such an age gap .

Footballers do get through wives so maybe half? The one who ran a marathon she seemed close to Cameron? And he didn’t look so much like daddy smee to me .
---
The foot problem yes what a shame for her. I noticed it’s normally same leg fwd in photos but didn’t think why. If you zoom in there is swelling and in some photos the foot looks squished in.

I don’t see much bruising though. Some examples worse than others which look almost normal.

the manolos with bling serve to bring attention to the feet imo .

OK so I am really down a Roger Smee rabbit hole now. I was trying to find out about his children and I stumbled across this in a local paper from 2005:

A TEENAGE gardener has drowned in a freak swimming accident in a lake at a millionaire’s home near Henley. The death of Tyson Brown, 16, who was described by his father as a “really smashing boy”, has prompted friends to hold candle-light vigils in his memory. Tyson had been employed as a gardener for three weeks and last Friday was working at Crazies Hall in Crazies Hill, home of property developer Roger Smee. Eye-witnesses believe he and a 16-year-old friend were attempting to race across the lake and got into difficulties on their way back.

What an awful thing to happen

I'm no closer to working out the family tree....

omg .. what a tragedy.

it’s an amazing property. I can only imagine the running costs were the reason they moved . Maybe fed up of running such a place. Staff issues are a running theme in such estates and that’s just the beginning of the hassles.

I think the brother looks like comedian al Murray
---
There was a member on here who seemed to know them well . Might be worth asking them re the brother . Can’t think of members name would need to look back

She seems to of airbrushed herself much slimmer in this photo imo

For a newbie Youtuber with just over 15 000 subscribers, Leo's stats are quite good. Actually, they're very very good.

Compare her stats to YT OG beggar Em Sheldon ...

Em Sheldon - joined YT January 2012 - just over 11 years
Leo - joined YT April 2022 - just over 1 year

Em Sheldon - 102 000 subscribers
Leo - 15 200 subscribers

Em Sheldon with her 102k subscribers can barely crack 10k views. Yep, her Bicester and London shopping vlogs garner some views, but not quite impressive for 100k subscribers
Em's most recent highest viewed vlog was Josie's wedding. Says all you need to know.

 

[ella1979]

I find em really un likeable . Maybe there’s more people “like “ em out there so the audience is diluted ?. Leo isn’t buying loads of Instagram followers I checked . I don’t know if there’s a way to check the YouTube views are genuine ?.
If that’s genuine then it is very good .
I can’t see Leo being able to work like Lydia and put out several vlogs a week, I think Leo is at her limit with one a week . Over winter it must also be more difficult to vlog for Leo because she has less events going on and has done quite a few of the typical winter vlogs already.

 

[Azibi]

Urgh I detest Em Sheldon, she really is the pits!

I'm glad to see Leo not cheating like the others *cough* Lydia

I think people would be happy watching cosy winter vlogs from her home or maybe from their Myyyorkkkaa abode if they are going there in the Winter

Definitely although the winter is long and Majorca is fairly cool over winter.
There’s the opening of Cheltenham , I’m not sure what else .
She could do a bit more cooking . Although I personally bore of cooking fairly quickly.

I was pleasantly surprised re the instagram followers . She has done well with instagram on that time frame .

 

[ella1979]

Odd where she has a regular addition of 100 followers on YouTube. I think this points to an amount of fake subscribers up to 1k per month . Very odd

Leo and Mark seem like a happy couple. I don't think he likes being on camera which is understandable. The thing I find strange about Leo and Mark is that they live they live on her parent's property. That' has to be emasculating for him. If I was a newy wed I would want to living completely separate from my parents.

Maybe not is you could live there …and save up ..it’s a stunNing location and possibly if they were to buy something they would have to move a distance away or buy a one bed flat in Henley . This may also help with future inheritance if she’s already living there .
