Am I the only one who thinks that Tan – for once – handled all of this rather well? Especially compared to Jim? No rushed wedding and even time for the two (Tan + HWM) to get used to the new situation without blasting it out into the world. I'm almost a little impressed with her, I didn't expect that at all. Feeling really happy for her, I can actually see her being a good mom!

I’m sure she’ll be fine, along with the billions of other people who also have kids.

Jim said in a podcast that he realized Tanya was not the person to move on to the next step and have kids with and Sarah was. Like women are interchangeable incubators for him.

Holy crap are you with MI6 or something? Some Tattlers’ talents for detective work really are going to waste!

Yeah, maybe we can not body shame? There's observing weight gain and there's being unpleasant about it. I'm no Tanya fan, but it's not her fault that Dior make boots for very slender legs only.

Don't think so. Tanya seems to give zero fucks about Jim.

I’ve never posted anywhere ..but.. i saw Tanya this morning on the kings Rd in London, and she looked very pregnant ( i’d say 4 months or so)
I have a baby, and notice pregnant bodies even before looking at faces! I saw a young woman wearing dungarees/ overalls and thought “ that’s a cute bump” , definitely recognised pregnancy boobs ( they swell in a very telling way) and when i got to the face i recognised Tanya. She was talking/ walking to a male friend, and it was definitely her when i heard her voice.
I checked her IG and noticed if you scroll down, she hasn’t posted a full body pic in a while. The last one is her wearing black, which at that stage is easy to conceal with that colour.
Anyway, not sure anyone is interested, but thought i’d share!

I am worried about Sarah. It’s very unhealthy behaviour from her, and I’d say it’s fairly certain she has been reading this forum. I googled ‘Tanya Burr cheating’ after she started throwing out those accusations and this thread was the first thing that came up after some generic ‘Tanya Burr and Jim Chapman have divorced’ articles, so I’m guessing she’s done the same with the same results.
With that in mind, I don’t want to drag her. For whatever reason she clearly is not very happy — happy people simply don’t obsess about their partner’s ex or stranger' opinions. Whatever you think of Tanya, she has clearly moved on with her life and has only ever had kind things to say publicly about Jim since their break. She has done relatively few interviews, and the main one she did was about her own life and the new future she was creating. I’m sure it helped a lot of women who may have gone through a divorce or serious break up to see a light at the end of the tunnel, and I don’t see why she should have to keep silent about her fear around that big life change — especially as she made it so clear it was not about Jim himself by saying he was still her best friend.
Ironically, the main message Tanya gave out in that interview was that she regretted oversharing online and had chosen to live more privately as a result — something Sarah could learn from.
Sarah I’m sure did receive a lot of negative attention at the start of her relationship with Jim given how soon it was since he had announced his divorce after so many years with Tanya. They built their relationship in the midst of this intensity — Jim fresh from a painful break up, Sarah newly in the public eye, the pair of them getting a lot of speculation thrown their way. It probably felt like them against the world and they bonded over this shared sense of injustice that people could judge them or think it was all a bit soon. It could be that proving everyone wrong (that she wasn’t a rebound, that Jim was ready to be with someone new) was at least a part of what kept them together. Sarah certainly derived satisfaction from it, she went back to reply to nasty comments on one of the first pictures they appeared in together a year later to 'remember the utter crap that was said.' Three years later they’re engaged and have a daughter and house, this should be their happily ever after where they settle down. But perhaps it feels a little flat now that they’re just living out the tiring life of new parents and don’t have any more drama fuelling them forwards. Perhaps the ‘us vs Tanya’ thing has become a toxic way to bond since it was forced on them when they were first together. Maybe since she was introduced as the new girlfriend after Tanya, three years later she remains paranoid that everyone is comparing her even when they’re not. Jim’s family and friends as well as strangers online. I worry she doesn’t have much of a support network of her own, if she did surely they would advise her against this behaviour. She should go to therapy if she isn’t already.
Sarah, if you’re reading this, please take care of yourself. Delete instagram from your phone and stop looking up what people irrelevant to your life are saying about you. It will all blow over in a couple of weeks and people will move on to the next thing. Don’t let insecurity stop you enjoying the first precious year of your daughter’s life. Having your attention taken up by such petty matters will affect her more than a bot comment she’ll never read. You’ll never get this time back.

I do love how much Tanya lives rent free in both Jim and Sarah’s head and she’s just cracking on with stuff. I notice Jim is overloading us with Margot content (more than usual) today for some reason 
we see you James.
Edit: btw Jim, Margot is looking more and more like Sarah these days - soz mate.

It’s difficult to defend my comment without defending Tanya but I’ll try.
I just don’t think it’s fair to expect people to have ‘achievments’ constantly, sometimes just keeping your head above water is ok. She may have have been reckless, arrogant and thrown away her success but she did have it and she’s living off it still, I give that credit because a lot of people squander it more than she has.
Plenty of ‘celebs’ trade on their ‘one hit wonder’, previous glory. It’s not glamorous or an enviable position but to be fair, I bet they’d rather scrape a living that way than getting a proper job, it’s an achievement in itself really.
If people retire after an incredible career we don’t stop respecting them because they didn’t do anything that year or recently.
So many influencers these days simply exist to fake a perfect lifestyle on credit and with filters and spank cash on shit trips to Dubai and Range Rovers. They’ve never worked or achieved anything more than
100,000 followers And no one knows them outside of that.
At least she did something as some point and has set up her future. Front cover of Glamour, Sunday supplements, her own range in Superdrug, charity ambassador etc the likes of Elle Darby couldn’t even dream of. I’d rather have done that 5 years ago than an ITS collection today.
And since I’m opening myself to probably get shit... We don’t know something horrible happend to Martha or she cheated - we don’t have facts about either thing just speculation and hearsay.
I’d also expect she’s made money on that £2m house. A courtyard is still a garden in Fulham/Chelsea. Mortgage or not, if she’s smart, lives modestly, she won’t need to ‘work’ again. You can say it’s lazy and unfulfilling or you can applaud her for setting herself up for life, just two sides of the same coin.

I’m curious as to how calling Tanya a cheater is proving that her baby isn’t ugly? Strange connections being drawn here. ‘They called her baby UGLY so obviously she’s going to reveal that her husband’s last marriage ended in infidelity months before they met, thus destroying any claims about baby’s ugliness”.
Also Tanya doesn’t comment on it because….. she just doesn’t want to. So? I hope this is just misplaced Tanya irritation and you guys aren’t actually doormats who would do your ex’s bidding three years after a split because his new girlfriend is upset…

Damn, I never thought Tarn's thread would be exciting enough to warrant posting here! What stands out the most to me through all of this is that Jim is a gross manchild and I think Sarah needs to wake up to that and realize where the real problem lies. If Jim agreed that something really needed to be said and Tanya needed to be outed, he should have been the one to man up and say something, defending his partner and new baby and at the same time addressing the truth of HIS previous marriage. But no, instead he sits back and keeps his hands clean while Sarah deals with these comments, all while probably struggling with pregnancy hormones and insecurities that I'm sure he's been fueling during the entirety of their relationship. He's gross.

Honestly can't blame Tanya for not wanting to have kids with Jim. At any age actually.
