I haven’t seen the stories yet, but she is a contradiction or maybe a mixture of things. Yes she had a difficult childhood but doesn’t now recognise the privilege that she has now. If she is struggling, she can take time off which is much more difficult for those of us who are employed and are not wealthy.
This may be random, but she mentioned yesterday that she used to drive a Mini but not the car that she drives now which I assume is an BMW/Audi/Merc SUV.
