I agree - totally bizarre! I was pretty surprised earlier when I read posts stating that Niomi's family might have a problem with Lordon because he's Irish. WTH?! The guy is problematic for a whole number of reasons - being Irish is not one of them!I assume you didn’t mean to say that having an Irish accent equals lack of class that cannot by compensated for by a private education.
There are some very very problematic comments being casually thrown around about Irish people. As if somehow it’s reasonable to assume that having an Irish accent is problematic, worse it’s seems than being a chavtastic personal traine
There are many valid reasons Niomi’s mother might not like Jamie. To jump to oh it must be because he is a Irish/ has an Irish accent is bizarre.
If anything, I think Verity is probably concerned about the speed at which their relationship is moving. She won't want Niomi to get hurt again. She may also be concerned with Lordon's chosen career of 'online life coach.' I'd guess that's not exactly what she wants for her daughter who almost married Joe Woodward.
