Latest post...... errrr Grabby you selfish entitled cow... you took circa 493 trips both in the U.K. and abroad last year. So no, not another life. It’s not even a distant memory for you. It’s your current disgraceful, non-compliant, self centred, life.

Question - why did she need Benpecked to build a custom quality plywood chest of drawers for the nursery “space” when there’s a perfectly nice chest of drawers sitting literally outside the door on the landing?
She wouldn’t share with the baby boy you know selfish stylish mamma

Because she is the most insta greedy cow, she doesn’t enjoy anything at any moment of her privileged life, even if she was away now she’d be moaning at something like hmmm small balcony

Excellent analysis!

I agree, I used to look on (when she lived at her old house) and think, wow how does she do it? ..and then I was enlightened by her ‘That Guy’ blog post, and finding this lovely place!

Do you think there might be something going on with Benpecked?! He never appears to socialise with friends from his past, is clearly good with numbers and the no coat thing makes think he may be on a spectrum?

I’m speaking as somebody who is highly uneducated about autism etc. and I’m not saying it as a negative against others or to reinforce unjustified negative stereotypes I’m just thinking there might be something more to him and his decision making?

Its a man thing. Every man i know wouldn't wear a coat. My husband has just come back from walking the dogs in a hoodie and shorts. If he sees a man with an umbrella he calls them all sorts. I wouldn't read too much into it.

He may not seem to have friends, though that may be because he's either working, gardening, doing DIY, doing the allotment, growing seeds etc! I bet R is non stop "I want this, NOW'. R's been brought up to think she should always be looked after. Most of us reached 16 or so and wanted our independence. As women, most of us will have fought to be taken seriously, had to work 10 times as hard to be taken seriously. R wanted her daddy to look after her forever. She likes being a little girl who cries if she doesn't get what she wants. R's basically emulating her parents. But her parents now, not when they were young and developing a business. R wants her mum's life and for Ben to be her dad. I reckon he has been on the receiving end of R's Dad's 'chats' a hell of a lot of times.

Ben's dad seems to have been an accountant too. Ben has no backbone, he just fits other people's moulds. He clearly wanted to make a lot of money and that is the bond he shares with R and her family. I think it was R and her family who told him accountancy wasn't going to make him rich. He's so entwined with that family, professionally too, so even if he wanted to escape, he couldn't. R and Ben's relationship started in a really, really dodgy way. It could be seen as grooming. But Ben's been groomed too, by the Kedgleys. I actually think she did all the pressurising. She planned their wedding booking the venue, photographer and flowers before they were engaged. She even wanted a ring from Liberty's because that's where her dad bought her mum's ring. I reckon Ben thought money would set him free and give him choices in life. It hasn't. His child bride will never grow up. He's on a conveyer belt. She will never, ever be satisfied.

i love this analysis ... I’ve never considered the reverse option where Ben is actually the one who was groomed. My god, which ever way you look at it the situation it’s seriously fucked up.

I think her speech makes me cringe a bit more than his- not so much the words which are just standard perfunctory wedding speech words, but she really needs elocution lessons to help her pronounce her 'th' sounds!!! And also she's so frigging monotonous in her tone of voice!

She had the venue booked before they got engaged? Holy shit.

That video was very revealing of their relationship

I’ve often wondered if she is autistic. It would explain how she lacks self awareness and her monotonous tone. I don’t wish to disrespect people who are on the autistic spectrum at all, however that might explain some of her actions and reactions to things.

That wedding video. Wedding on a Thursday? What happened to the '10x richer than you ladyyyyyyyyyyy'?!

Surely the ONLY reason to get married on a Thursday is compromise/to save £$£$

I wouldn’t want to offend the autistic community by suggesting that negative traits are associated with autism.
