I mean, shock horror that Lizzy could bring out the worst in people...
We. Don’t. Want. Her!It's obvious that her move to New York is just a way to get away from her life in London.
She originally moved to London to grow her career. Now that she is in New York she could easily become a huge youtuber by posting qualitative videos. The New York lovers (me included) never get enough of this city. There is so much to do and see.
She's better off going back to Manchester and leave the influencer world.
Near the end, he was clearly on the way out.Was Ben in, or just out of her life when she journalled about her feelings for the photographer??
( I can't remember his name - but he had a girlfriend and Lizzy showed her journal entry about him in her vlog)
Always assumed a little cross over
That's the one. I remember reading about it on the old GG site.Was t that the odd photographer Dean ?
Beyond excessive drinking, I wonder if there was anything else toxic about their relationship. Better he hooked up with Lizzy vs Lizzy’s friend Hanna Louise.The only thing I really remember about Ben is when a few months after they broke up he took to stories to talk about how he had been in a toxic relationship that had been encouraging him to live an unhealthy lifestyle and drink far too much and how he had stopped drinking and taken to the gym and feels much better.
Thank you for the tea. Now do you mind giving us a brief rundown of the first boyfriend, whom she lived with in her very early vlogs.Ben was born in Italy and raised in Sydney, he used to have it in his insta bio but I guess he would have moved at a very young age? At some point in his adult life he moved to Europe, lived in London and Italy for a while before Amsterdam. Ben is totally not my type in either the looks or personality department but there’s no denying he is more conventionally attractive than Lizzy.
I think Ben tried to be an influencer when he lived in London because on the podcast Lizzy said she originally met Ben when they were at the same blogger event, she was still with Harry and living in Manchester at the time. Ben had already moved to Amsterdam by the time Lizzy moved to London but they had been IG friends since first meeting and met up when he was back in London for an event.
Ben originally thought of Lizzy as a one night stand and Lizzy pushed for a relationship. Their first date was in Paris, Lizzy blogged it including pictures of Ben and I think she might have even vlogged it? Lizzy always seemed besotted with him, always seemed to encourage him and she edited the vlogs so it was always her choice to include him in them and to what extent.
Lizzy being Lizzy and always copying the people who come into her life - Lizzy had always mentioned dear old uncle Luigi but she really ramped up the Luigi content to the point where you would have thought she had Italian heritage and was a former miss Italy when she started dating Ben. Italian by proxy.
Luigi’s signet ring first appeared when Lizzy lived in Holland Park, after she started dating Ben - the Italian man who wore a signet ring. It was practically glued to Lizzy’s finger during the time she dated Ben and in the following years she wore it less and less. In a recent vlog when Lizzy talked about the Tada collection she claimed to have stopped wearing the ring because she found the black stone difficult to style but in reality did she only wear it because of Ben?
It was also when Lizzy used to say she wanted to live in Italy for a few months and learn Italian, another thing Ben had done. Ben had friends living in New York and they visited them as a couple, around that time Lizzy said she wanted to spend a month in New York spending a week in each part of the city to experience what it was like living there. That was eye roll in itself and something Ben had previously done elsewhere, but I think that is the closest Lizzy’s ever come to wanting to live abroad.
Was Ben only in her life for just short of a year? It’s weird to think all Lizzy has done since then is regress. And since Ben I don’t remember Lizzy ever mentioning wanting to live abroad again, even temporarily, she always said if she ever moved out of London it would be back to Manchester.
I think Lizzy’s mental health has been spiralling since she moved to East London but recently I think New York just makes her miserable. I don’t think she ever wanted to live abroad and it is a big upheaval to put yourself through if you’re doing it just to copy someone. New York is always going to leave so many unanswered questions.
Not BB’s Dean?Was t that the odd photographer Dean ?
That's an interesting observation about the ring. She used to wear it loads (and a ring like that is not "hard to style" ffs), enough to become somewhat of a signature. It was actually one of the few things she influenced me to search for. Way nicer of an heirloom than all her tatty Tada & Toy/Mejuri/Missoma collabs.Luigi’s signet ring first appeared when Lizzy lived in Holland Park, after she started dating Ben - the Italian man who wore a signet ring. It was practically glued to Lizzy’s finger during the time she dated Ben and in the following years she wore it less and less. In a recent vlog when Lizzy talked about the Tada collection she claimed to have stopped wearing the ring because she found the black stone difficult to style but in reality did she only wear it because of Ben?
Harry was studying to be an architect I believe, and was also in a band, so Lizzy went out to pub shows and the like a lot more. He'd obviously show up in her vlogs but didn't seem to relish being on camera. He went on a few holidays with Lizzy and her Mom, like Bali and America/Canada. Seemed like a nice enough guy, definitely not a fancy boy like Ben. But they both shared similar tall, dark, husky features, so maybe she has a type (goofy-looking Dean being an outlier I hope). My guess is they simply grew apart, as many relationships formed in one's very early 20s do. Also, he seemed to have a solid career ahead of him that wouldn't have meshed well with Lizzy's influencer life style.Thank you for the tea.

Photographer was called Dean, another obsession from LizzWas Ben in, or just out of her life when she journalled about her feelings for the photographer??

At the 5:33 mark onwards her face is SO puffy! Is that just due to tiredness or is she back to drinking ridiculous amounts again?!Photographer was called Dean, another obsession from Lizz
Latest video (sponsored by Sezane) is out and Lizzy seems very tired and puffy faced looking. Same ole jerky camera angles etc. She’ll be traveling back to London in a weeks time. Did a brief book review. Showed the odd night out. Touched based she doesn’t know how she feels turning 30. That’s it really!
Probably a combination of constant flying, tiredness and drinking.At the 5:33 mark onwards her face is SO puffy! Is that just due to tiredness or is she back to drinking ridiculous amounts again?!
