Does anyone else think this might be because of Andrew’s affair with his work colleague? Gemma will obviously be feeling very insecure after that, so wants to ‘improve’ her appearance. And she can’t control Andrew and his behaviour, so she controls all other aspects of her life? Why she stayed with him is beyond me. But maybe she didn’t want two failed marriages as it doesn’t fit her picture perfect lifestyle she portrays online…
Might well be but what purpose does it serve? Is she trying to prove to the bird he cheated with that she’s won and that life is great? The reality, that’s plain for all to see, is that she’s not won… she’s more insecure than ever, desperately seeking attention online cause she’s clearly not getting the validation she needs at home and ultimately
bleeping miserable…
Life at home must be utterly miserable with her as well dealing with her rampant insecurity which if that’s truly the cause of it is absolutely horrible but Andrew didn’t cheat on her because she was two stone heavier or didn’t track her calories enough… she was heavier when they met so her weight and her food intake never has been or never will be the issue and it’s sad that she can’t see that. She needs to work on her issues around perfection and control and start living in and enjoying the moment, stop trying to curate an Instagram worthy life and start living a life that SHE is happy with, not all her followers who are absolutely irrelevant in the grand scheme of things.
Very sad to watch and sadder as well as she’s got an impressionable young girl at home watching her mum never be truly happy because she’s hell bent on controlling and procuring a life that looks good to everyone else but doesn’t really feel good to live.
Social media has a lot to answer for!
