Cooking the books, overpaid grifters ,
time for the bus pass and slippers
Loose badly needs new blood,
She milked it for 20 years
Now they’ll both just chew the cud
Her frenemy Kaye will be glad to see the back,
Embarrassed of years of her meaningless feedback
When you’re put out to pasture, your appearances are a disaster. Just stay home with the master (manipulator)
The tax mans taken all my doh left me in my stately home to listen to endless tales of drunkenness and cruelty
Sorry
I got a bit carried away there

She looks awful in that photo, drained
I agree she looks awful in the photo and drained , but I think it speaks volumes about the kind of people they are that financial worries , or potential loss of a job might keep them up at night, but loss of reputation, the loss of good relations with family members and former spouses. and also losing their mental health, dignity, personal boundaries, or any kind of personal authority or integrity (including as a parent) doesn't seem to have bothered them at all! (Just used as an endless supply of material to sensationalise and endlessly milk for viewing figures?)
They are the type (and I know a few similar, sorry to burst their bubble
but they are not unique!) who when things are going well, and they are coasting on easy street (auto pilot) are almost unbearably smug, superior, self aggrandising , ostentatious, permissive, lazy and entitled...in other words spoilt, and with very little appreciation of all the things they have been gifted with.
No one really in their heart of hearts would want a normal person to have to deal with an uncertain or insecure future (but Mark and Nadia feel above the ordinary or normal don't they?)
They feel special, above such mundane concerns (That's what their behaviour screams to me) and whenever others have suffered I genuinely get the sense that they haven't shown much sympathy or empathy?
So whatever befalls them..well what can I say apart from the fact that these people surely have alienated a lot of people. When the going was good (and it still might be just they have scarcity mindset and don't value what they actually have always hankering after more, freebies etc).
They flaunted it in people's faces (literally) all the holidays, all the meals out, all the gifts etc etc and without the sense to have good grace or modesty about it, to them claim a lot of that as expenses on top of it all, was surely taking the piss
She would pull her Pollyanna/Marie Antoinette act..let the peasants eat momma's spaghetti
jeez haven't we been punished enough?
He was like a on the alert guard dog, fiercely possessive of his property and belongings (seriously my nanna had a spoilt dog that reacted the same way
) ready to growl at any intruders (which would be anyone that didn't fawn or give them their own way!).
So in a way wealth has spoilt them as a family , insulated them from reality and consequences, allowed them access to constant stimulation, distraction and anything to not to have to face actually looking at themselves constructively, it's brought out her ego and it's made him even more possessive and territorial.
It didn't make them happy just gave them a temporary high followed afterwards by the inevitable low. That they might be in a low spot right now is just the consequence of living a very unbalanced life.
Maybe this is a shock to the system, if they have any sense they might finally get around to really evaluating and appreciating what they already have, and not mourn a loss , but appreciate the gaining of wisdom that comes from acknowledging that life has its ups and downs, and getting used to always having your own way and easy money is not all it's cracked up to be, and can actually be damaging if you haven't got the maturity to make the best of it, which they surely haven't?
wonder if she is preparing something? Seems a bit fishy
she looks relaxed, radiant, beautiful and happy
