So I went back to binge TMUK on maternity leave, had some *opinions* and stumbled upon this forum by chance - I’ve found my people!!
I read the first two threads for TMUK then tried to find the 3rd, and realised it’s now up to #16
anyone care to provide a brief update of what’s happened in the last year, save me reading 700+ pages?
Some *thoughts*
sassi - good mum but she shouts too much, especially in front of Zena’ya, that’s not healthy for her to see her parents arguing so much. She clearly loves her little girl to pieces and hats off to her, is one of the few girls who appeared to want to make something of her life away from TM. I don’t know many girls who would go work on a building site instead of claiming off the government, and good on her for providing proper meals and trying to better herself with the nails business. Clearly not compatible with Darren, I’m convinced he’s a wannabe roadman/small time drug dealer on the side.
megan - I’ve never really warmed to her (maybe due to the Essex accent
), she’s a chav through and through but again, good mum. Needs to tidy her house and focus on her kids instead of slyly trying to one-up Reann on who’s got what. Mature in some areas e.g. coparenting, utterly away with the fairies in others. TEL DOES NOT WANT A CHILD YET, STOP FORCING IT. Also, Billie is hilarious. I would happily microblade her eyebrows though, they annoy me every time she’s on screen but alas, wrong end of the country. Billie, if you’re reading this, hit me up and I’ll do it for free
amber - exhausting to watch. doesn’t look like she can be arsed parenting, Ste seems like a good reliable dad but terrible partner. To be fair, they seem as bad as each other in the relationship. Should stick to coparenting and go their separate ways
also, your house is a tip, please either clean up or skip a few meals out in the local greasy spoon cafe and invest in a cleaner. I have kids myself so know it’s a losing battle most of the time, but good Lord if you know you’re going on tv why on earth wouldn’t you at least tidy!!
shannon - personality of a wet lettuce and has “DOORMAT” stamped across her forehead where Charlie’s concerned. No idea why she puts up with him and his behaviour but I guess it’s hard to change now after she’s put up with it so long. 100% trapped him with the second baby, sorry love but he’s just not that into you. She’s a pretty girl and could do so much better, had a quick Instagram stalk and it seems like she’s single so I’m rooting for her to find her Prince Charming
chloe - I know she’s marmite on this forum, but I actually really like her, she’s got a bit of drive and ambition which makes a change from most of the girls on this series. Jordan’s a waste of space and is dragging her down, she should have never have got back with him but let’s face it, we all made questionable decisions when it came to our first loves. Hindsight is a wonderful thing and I don’t blame her for trying to keep her family together, she obviously wants the secure family unit that she had growing up for Marley. I do think she’s a bit of a drama Queen and the way she spoke to her mum in the shop was despicable, it would have been far more gracious to admit she was wrong and apologise rather than deflecting the blame to her mum. Anyone know if she’s still wasting time with him? Chloe, you can do so much better love!
emma - almost forgot she was on the last season, lovely girl but just not interesting in the slightest. However, she’s definitely one of the better mum’s and should be proud of how well she coped as a single parent, especially in the early days with Jeremiah as a newborn. Sloth boy is a drain on society, I hope she’s gone for CMS as I don’t see any other benefit of him being on the birth certificate. Would be interested to know how she’s got on since the last series aired, I hope she’ll make something of herself as she seems sensible enough to realise TMUK and Instagram won’t last forever.
Peace
Sorry I’ve missed this, what’s the goss? Just been on her Instagram and all the photos of him are pixelled out. Who is he/what’s he done?
