LOLing at her White Stuff ad… I mean, I like the brand (though probs won’t use them again after they’ve partnered with her and given her a load of freebies!) but she chose the most granny 👵🏻 outfit! She looks about 20 years older than she is 😂😂😂

If she is so confused about what is an ad and what is paid and what is gifted I bet she isn’t completing her tax return correctly to declare all of this.
this is the most accurate message. That kitchen alone will be £50k…tax has to be paid on the value of the item gifted. She shouldn’t be surprised when HMRC come knocking….just to check.

Boho chic indeed, White Stuff is about as far from boho as it gets!

Their actual living standards and existence do not match that of a high flying City worker and successful TV/media wife. Everything they get is gifted. All their holidays are gifted, their children’s clothes are gifted, Manon’s clothes are gifted, her underwear is gifted, the kitchen is gifted, the sofa gifted, their Ocado shop gifted, their pots and pans gifted - I could go on 😂! They have leeched absolutely everything. They do not seem to do things that they have to pay for themselves, which is bizarre because if Manon did ‘organic’ material then it’s good for her own image and insta page - whereas most people have become bored and fed up of influencers just flogging free stuff all the time.

I’d imagine there’s a lot more family money funding their lifestyle than what they’d care to admit - the house for example, no bank is lending an influencer who ‘doesn’t do adds’, and a husband who was on paternity leave for 6 months, the money to finance that house. Her husband may have a good job but not a lot of City jobs go above the £250K mark? Manon’s finances are entirely based on her popularity and I’d imagine extremely volatile. Plus she appears to struggle with knowing what she’s been paid to do and what she’s received as a benefit in kind, so I’d imagine that would pose a problem when calculating her annual earnings

Manon also has a PR manager/publicist but posts ‘85%’ non advertised material 😂 what’s the point having a PR manager then if there’s barely any adds?

The ‘french kitchen’ too lol I’ve heard of a Parisian kitchen because they are known to be tiny but not a french one in the middle of London, made by a British company.
it did occur to me they’ve pushed themselves to their limit for appearances and are desperate not to look like they’ve done that.

everything, everything is gifted. Their holidays, the cookware, the furniture (don’t forget the vinterior stuff she got), her undies, her clothing… all of it.

Ah yes, Wimslow. Notorious for being the Paris of the North West of England…

what’s hilarious is that the kitchens being sold by Thomas James? made by two very British blokes, with most clients in England. Painted in F&B (British paint), made in Lancashire, with accoya wood likely sourced from California/New Zealand and counter tops from Italy.

there is nothing French about this kitchen, it’s bizarre she keeps calling it that. And it looks like her in laws have had to pull in a favour with a business local to them on the same sector, because presumably Manon and Luke can’t afford their own kitchen? Because why wouldn’t they use a company local to London? Or France for that matter, since it seems important to Manon.

Boho chic 😆😆😆 nah - her look reminds me of my stepmum, who is in her Crew Clothing era!
this made me laugh out loud. I’m in my 30s and I love crew clothing hoodies and even the White company…

but on no planet are they bohemian..

maybe chalk it down to language barrier? Did you guys know Manon is actually French???

I always want to ask "a French what?" when I see her Host Like a French reels. Surely even non-bilingual non-cooking husband could tell her it should be the French?

She might be gifted a lovely ‘French kitchen’ far superior to a British kitchen but at least I buy my own knickers! 🤣

More snippy comments.. and those that jump to her defence follow. I think she has got so much worse for it lately.. maybe sleep deprived?! Or just arrogance?!

And more advertising for every item of clothing the kids wear. Sorry vulgar and cheap. Beggy really.

Sorry - why does she refer to her daughter as a toddler still? Isn’t she graduating from nursery and going to school presumably? So she must be 4/5? Does it sound cuter, or like she is a real hard working mum with young ones? Remeber guys - no local family or childcare! Only a few half days at nursery and she is solo parenting the whole entire time… poor dame

Mind you choosing the trip back to home (or her parents home) every 6/7 weeks, sounds like a chore at T’best o times. So frequently, sure that’ll be fun as kids grow up and have to go to school .. when they start wanting to see friends and do other things other than what mummy wants and needs to film for her job of putting her family and young kids on social media - ear ing money off their appearances, when they can’t get off school, when she starts spouting all about how valuable travel is in term time to toddlers enrichment and development..

And best of all - when they realise other kids are allowed those things called screens (sacred bleu!) outside of the house and not just on the tv! And not just for “slow pace” Disney films only in French!

I am actually surprised she hasn’t made mr work that bit harder to pay for the “toddler” to go to a private French school in London and study in the far superior language, the far superior curriculum, to eat the far superior food and drink and mingle with far superior French speakers. In London!

Surely Fleur won't be going a l'ecole with those frightful screen-addicted British kids? I bet nothing less than the Lycee in South Ken will do for Madame! She's said before that she wants the kids to go to a bilingual school.

Though she won't as smug about them being bilingual when she hears them talk to each other in English, like all the bilingual kids I know do with their siblings!

Exactly - that will all be cut out of her posts - she has to upkeep that illusion of her kids only speaking her langue maternele despite them actually being half British and living in England.. we can’t have people thinking they’re not all French - save the bank/husband..

I find it so tacky and gross that she’s using her kids to get income like this. She’s advertising “my little sleepers club”, kids clothing, kid decor.. she’s even posted what they’ve had for lunch.

She was a cook fgs, there’s no need to include her children on her social media in this way. It’s feels so gross to me that she’s using them to sell products/to get freebies.

I honestly thought Manon was better than this, that she had some talent as a cook. But getting hubby to write her some good reviews, using her kids for content… it’s all barrel scraping stuff. Very desperate.
