I thought it was too tight at the fastening especially as it was meant to go over an item of clothing.

 

[Aquablue]

wow, am I looking at the right man? He looks so much older than 43 to me, more like 63 !!!

Not the old guy the younger guy in the 3pc suit, this is Marie's mom's parter. He still looks young for 43 and Marie's mom looks young for 52.

I thought it was too tight at the fastening especially as it was meant to go over an item of clothing.

It's all just holiday weight.
After partying every day for 30 days....and a lot of eating out in London....and soon, more feasting in South Africa....that dress will fit her by Easter.

I wonder who she may have passed it onto. @Clara Burnett did you not state that it went through the château. I wonder if she passed it on to Manor & Maker with her big hugs.

In tonight's vlog, Amaury seemed to have some breathing difficulties when she was talking to him and when he was out repairing the digger. If he still had Covid then or was not completely over it, he should surely have been resting, away from everyone else and even if almost over it, he should have been wearing a mask when he was so close to others both inside and out. He really did not look or sound well.

Her stepdad was 43 last week. He's probably a few years younger than her mother but I imagine that she was probably quite young when she had FRK, maybe 18? Her youngest child is now 9 yrs old.

I imagine FRK mother is around 50, making her around 20 when she had Marie. So, the husband is 43, not much of an age difference. It is strange seeing how close everyone is in age. I guess that's what happens when you have a child at a young age. Her grandmother also looked very young. Probably had FRk mom young too.

'm sorry, really am. I seem to have hit a nerve with my question here.
I didn't intent to come out as I am asking out of gossipping (sp?).

Don't worry, it was clear you were not expecting anyone to investigate. It is natural to wonder about it, especially when you like the family and to hope nothing awful happened. They are from the north-east of England, not far from Newcastle, and sometimes that accent can be difficult to understand if you aren't used to it. People from that area are usually very warm and friendly.

You may be looking at his father in that case! He's quite a nice looking chap and FRK's mum is attractive too.

This isn't the,man that came to visit with mom and the boys....was that grandpa?

IJ admitted on camera that she did not give Stephanee any birthday presents. She didn’t believe in it. I’m not sure if I’m remembering correctly but I believe she said something like I gave you the gift of life.

I remember her saying that. It was such an appalling thing to say, I thought she was joking.

 

[shaken&stirred]

Another slight to IJ tonight with SJ announcing that her Mother always told her growing up she didn't have good legs. What sort of Mother body shames a young girl?
When she was older and decided she did have good legs and told her Mother this, IJ retorted 'well they're not as good as mine'. What a cow

SJ is a threat to IJ and her competition , the sure sign of a narcissistic mother. SJ came by her narcissism legitimately.

Seems weird IJ never bought SJ gifts. IJ can’t wait to give Snorty his gift she bought it ages ago, so many to choose from, looks yummy.

Stephanie is, really, the lost child - which is why, as an adult, she remains a child. She is, as someone has already pointed out, truly looking for love, approval, attention, an audience, a following. Loss of her father, even as half baked as he was, was devastating. The attention was never about her. It was about the old folks in the home, her father, his second wife Isabelle, the other child Gerry. And then the baby Stephanie was born. Stephanie has flung herself in the wrong direction with men as a result of an arm’s length mother whom she professes she can’t wait to see, and a father who fiddled with a paint brush taking her occasionally under his wing. From Stephanie’s early marriage to quick divorce, to various romances that turned into long lasting friends. Instant ditching of “friends”, an acute manipulative behavior with people whom she throws overboard, sometimes before they see it coming. Hurting someone, as she has been hurt. A constant manic swirl for her, as she lands, flits away, lands again. It is no surprise then, she is in yet another relationship with a very ill placed/picked young man who snorts, and hasn’t quite come to grasp with his identity - similar to or running alongside Stephanie’s journey on her broken road. She knows no other. So Stephanie skips along, very scattered, talks of life, love and laughter when she should really land herself in a therapists office for multiple, week long chats, at least a few year commitment. The dynamics that we see, will play out until she recognizes the issue and gets help. We will see no improvement, ever. By keeping things messy, she avoids her reality. Clutter is comfort. And now after that blathering. . . . .the most recent vlog. . . . .”you look like Dracula” Mommie says to her man child. His task for the day, screwing in lightbulbs in that God awful wallpapered crack mirrored bathroom. Tight pants, a pea coat, and high heeled boots. Actually, it’s quite sad. The crash will come. In some way, all the volunteers are trying to please her, gift her, make it better - but it’s just more, and more and more. I actually think she is pitiful, and mad in the head - wires not connected, so to speak.

Thank you, @MojoDublin, for posting the latest latest Patreon vlog.

The panelling and the giant mirror fantasia demonstrates, once again, that SJ has not got a clue about proportion, scale or dimensions (quite apart from redefining the meaning of period authenticity). The not remotely Grand Salon is completely unsuited to opulent panelling and a mirror of those proportions. The room has low ceilings and there is no symmetry to window and door positions. The panelling and the mirror will accentuate this. Complete overkill and gilding the lily to the nth degree.

Stephanie thinks she's knowledgeable and.blessd with inherent excellent taste. She's read every book, pored over glossy magazines, drunk Wikiwhatsit dry, visited grand houses - proper chateaux and palaces - and immersed herself in history. And screws up because she doesn't have any real feeling - no gut instinct - for what works amd what doesn't. Mistake after mistake.

(Michael Potts' sour dough paving slabs, sorry...pizza, looked inedible - I almost felt a twinge of nostalgia for the FRK school of culinary oddities.))

If you are going to go to the trouble of making pizza from scratch, you need to serve it immediately and eat it immediately. Who puts that on a buffet? Cold rubber pizza? I don’t care how good the ingredients are, it’s going to suck.

 

[KyBourbon]

Don’t know if anyone caught it, but in Billy’s latest video “Grand Reveal,” MPK was filming and said he’s waiting for Florian to finish his exams in a few weeks before he films his next video. Not sure why Florian would have exams in January? But what do I know? Anyway…MPK said he doesn’t like to be alone in his videos because he’s talking to himself, so he needs Florian. Not sure why that’s an issue now…he didn’t have an issue with that when he first started his channel. Just more excuses from the master of excuses. He’s definitely creative in the excuse department!

 

[OhIDontKnow...]

My Mother said heaps of these things to me. No wonder I was so screwed up for so long. It's not ok at all, but unfortunately quite common.

My mom didn’t do that to me, but she was no help in the makeup or hair department. I was in the wilderness.

This guy, I thought he was the step dad! LOL She does say she's going to meet her mother and her mom's husband and her boys, and you don't see any other man .... but yeah, I was surprised to see this younger man todays!

I had another look at her grandmother. I think she was a dwarf. Isabelle is not much bigger. She looked to be barely over 4 ft tall.
