I hate the phrase "how far gone" too. I think I'd rather say it as "how many weeks are you". It definitely has negative connotations.

Are you sure they don't own their house? Someone suggested they don't live in a nice part of West London - I thought they were in Notting Hill? That is a VERY nice part of West London. I'd much prefer there over SW London.

They’re not in Notting Hill. I don’t want to go into too much detail about which neighbourhood they’re in because they’ve never actually put it out there themselves on social media and actually seem smart with their privacy about their location but they are more in the Hammersmith direction if you know the area at all. There’s nothing wrong with the area they’re in, it’s just not the picturesque pretty streets that she films herself in.

As for whether they own the house, land registry shows that it was purchased in a trust and their names aren’t on the deeds, so it is possible that they own it- it’s just not in their names and it was purchased for them by family. What’s interesting is that following all the speculation about their house, there is suddenly a new article in Hello that has been updated in the last two days about their house. I guess Millie is reading here and wants her PR team to set the record straight!

Fair dos if their family has bought it for them (I’m entirely thinking if I ever got very rich then I would buy my children their property to help them out. Some wouldn’t, some would etc).

Makes me chuckle to hear she films outside picturesque backdrops of houses if not in her neighbourhood at all.

If it’s owned by a trust then yes it’ll be one of their family trusts purchasing it. I’d imagine Millie as she has a lot of old family money. Although Hugo’s dad could just as easily have set up a trust for his inheritance. Definitely don’t believe they’re renting!

I am always hoping with influencers who do this (Rosie Londoner is particularly bad for it) that the people who live there will come out and tell them to get off their steps or whatever :LOL:

Has anyone else noticed how Sienna walks? is that normal .. like side stepping everywhere? My baby never did that when she learnt. It was always straight forward. I wonder if it is to do with her hips?

I feel like her right foot is always pointing outwards? My son didn’t have that but maybe it’s normal for some?

I agree it's definitely an annoying phrase 🤣

I think regardless of whether you don't like it, her reply was quite rude imo, how can you know what someone does/doesn't like in that way? She could have exaplined that but still answered, she may as well have told her fan to f off from her reply

100%. I find it very offensive when people call my child half white. And I find it also offensive when they call her mixed race. ‘Mixed’ makes me think ‘mixed up’, ‘mixed signals’, ‘mixed company’ all of which reinforced existing stereotypes of ‘mixed’ people as confused, or defective. I also find 'mixed' is tied to animal breeding. So I shudder if someone calls my child 'mixed' .. she is multiracial .. she is not a mixed breed.

I hate it! But i understand that lots of people use these terms, and they don't mean harm by it. So I would never give a reply like Millie did. Even though I probably have more reason to .. I think it is obvious that calling a child half and half could lead them to feel like they don't have a real identity. That they are neither X or X. Belonging to no group. But asking someone how far gone they are .. I really don't think that is going to cause you or your child actual harm ?? Just be polite. Educate people in a polite manner if you feel like you have to ...

Totally agree - just rude. Would you say that to someone's face? She has zero class imo.

Ooh this is a much more controversial topic too - sounds like you’re definitely more reasonable than queen Millie 😂

I think you’re 100% a brilliant person for that. It’s an issue that needs educating and discussion for people to get it right but for me how far gone are you is just a question - it’s not offensive nor does it have any undertones. She just doesn’t like the question and that’s fine but just ignore the box instead of telling people off for a phrase / question that is pretty standard in pregnancy just my opinion!

Sienna’s feet definitely do point outwards! Maybe they’ll turn in as she gets used to walking

I looked into it and it is called out-toeing. Apparently it can be caused by dodgy hips. But also it can be caused by flat feet ... flat feet being caused by putting a child in shoes too early. And putting them in really stiff shoes. And making them wear shoes in the house (so they have no break from shoes). So knowing all of this it doesn't surprise me. Hoping it fixes itself..but it looks kind of severe..

Given she had hip dysplasia it seems much more likely her feet turning out is because of that than occasionally wearing shoes.

Millie’s feet are probably her most unattractive feature, I can’t understand why a shoe brand would want her to advertise sandals! 😐
