Clara does Stephanie realise her voice is not very good while she is lapping up this polite praise? Or does she really think her voice is wonderful?
She really does because everybody around her say so. Nobody in their right mind would want to upset the poor girl by confronting her with the truth.

@Clara Burnett Do you have the inside story on the missing bumper? Who did what?
From what I've heard it was Dan who drove the car in a ditch at night and by trying to get it out the bumper came off. He could be covering for someone else though. I know Armoir has a problem with drunk driving and he's not the only one.

If you have any exprerience of narcissistic abuse you will know that it is not just as easy as that. I know. It is likened to suffering PTSD. I am not a wimp or had mental health issues before my misfortune to encounter Mr Narc but it certainly left me with them.
I am tiring of blaming the victim & not the perpetrator. Fanny took her in under her wing, little girly chats getting all the gen on Marie's past. Not just befriended her but made her the BFF. For someone with low self esteem this is heady stuff. For a person to do that to someone when they have confided their past is nothing short of disgusting. Fanny tired of her, dropped her, made her feel in the way - that she needed her florist studio blah blah. We can see that Marie is a nitwit for falling for the flattery - but Fanny was her saviour, her heroine. That her cooking was great. That she looked so pretty. All BS.
The realisation of what has been done takes time. The deliberate change of plans coming back from Italy to avoid her possibly visiting the chateau. The calls not returned, promises made & broken, Natti raised up to BFF, Pavlina given her studio..slowly slowly the pennies dropping that she has been dropped from a great height. No floral business, no tagging onto La Lande's coat tails - few years older, still no love of her life, broke & abandoned. It's sad IMO.
I do very much agree. No matter how we feel about FRK and her ways to beg for more money, she has been turned into a perfect victim of Stephanie Jarvis, perfect for Stephanie Jarvis that is. As I expect it, we will get the blame for what happened to FRK because we were pretty harsh in our rejection of her grifting, but it's more than likely Stephanie Jarvis role (rather significant) will be completely overlooked and not just by the army of guerilla grannies she conducts. I personally would like to see to her getting what she deserves, but like you say, it's heavy stuff and will probably not land where it is supposed to land.

Why did she leave LaLande in the first place? Does anyone know? One week she was posting something positive about life, next thing she's leaving? I never did figure out what went down...
It wasn't a sudden departure at all, it had been in the works for months and months. She even dragged it out a bit, imho. Basically, her position at the HMN was made impossible by the Snorting Cameltoe's rise up the ladder; he really can't stand her. Then again, this is what always happens to people overstaying their welcome at Jarvis' HMN: they get pushed out by a new flavor of the month and nobody will remember who they were, no matter how liked they thought they were before. It will happen to Snorts too.

is SJ clever enough to follow Colleen Rooney’s lead and start a rumour to see if it’s reported here ?
That is actually a "game" a lot of the peeps in her entourage who want to know who I am are playing. Which is why I usually only report things when I have heard it from different sources, so I at least know it's a wider spread rumor and can't be traced back. It's a minefield to navigate indeed...

I think Marie's talking suicide and grifting is very disturbing and maybe we should lay off.
Maybe she should lay off herself? Maybe we should come down even harder on the one person who truly caused much of this misery? I agree with you that the situation FRK is in is very disturbing, but at the same time I find it disturbing that the people that are suppose to be helping her (like Nicky, who has offered her the house she's in now) can't prevent the girl from exposing herself even more. It's time for an intervention, surely. And where is FRK's mother in all this?

Yes, that's what I saw....and then, of course, Stephanie said that Davey told her that they'd only have to water these plants for two years and that she didn't need to invest in any sort of permanent irrigation system. None of those plants take care of themselves, except for maybe some of the shrubs they've planted, but even they'll need water after two years. None of them are native plants - except maybe that hedge thing that Dan moved to the area - and there will be times, especially during the hot summer months, when they will have to water once a week, even when that garden is established......if it ever gets to that point.
Actually from what I've heard there's already massive damage to what they have planted, due to pests and woodland creatures coming to dinner. She's trying to cover that fact up (obviously) by saying it all looks so wonderful but there's already gaps appearing in the planting scheme and summer hasn't even started. I would not be surprised if this was one of the last times she will give that area a front seat in her flogs as it will become more and more clear in which direction it's growing and it ain't gonna be pretty.

An intervention with Fanny? (Snorty is leaving for the Netherlands, so time to change the locks and pack up his things!!!)
A meeting with the bank? (Fanny, what do you mean you've spent all the money on pretty things and we need a loan?)
All of the above!
