I can honestly say that the Chateau Diaries is the only Tattle forum page that I read and contribute to, so I have been quite shocked to learn of all the allegations that have been made about Tattlers who participate in other forums.
If the stories of stalking and making malicious threats to the subject in question and their friends and family members are true, then yes I would say that people have gone way too far, it is not right nor acceptable in any circumstance or on any level. However, I am also seeing that some of the people who are feeling victimised and joining in the fervour to hunt down the Tattlers and bring them to justice appear to be just pissed off that they or their lifestyle are being criticised. If this is the case then boo hoo you should not be putting yourself in the public eye if you can’t take the flack that will inevitably come your way. That is the nature of the beast and it will not change and as in the case of the chateau diaries it is one of the only places where all opinions can be aired without being deleted just because they do not conform to the image being portrayed to the public.

My special collab x @Le Baiseur has been restocked with very limited availability, although there is no guarantee of when or if these highly sought after pieces of classic CD tattle merch will actually get shipped out.

7th Anniversary of CD - I watched it once and not interested in sitting through it again as part of a compilation vlog. Can someone please tell is if fan shows all the people she’s slept with over those 7 years, including volunteers and Chateau DIY staff.

7th Anniversary is Copper - is this an excuse for Snorty to go on a copper shopping spree?

There’s the 7 Year War and 7 Year Itch and now we have fan’s 7 Year Grift.

It is utterly staggering how she has achieved not one completed project in 7 years. What is more staggering is how the old patreons don't see how much she spends on herself!!! She is far from needing help with the renovations, if she didn't have to she would do no renovating at all, she would just take the money for herself. That will probably come to be honest. She purports to be interested in history and interiors but when she started this flog she had had the house for 13 years and had those frightful mismatched curtains, didn't redecorate the rooms just left the manky old wallpaper making out it was a design and historical provenance that made that decision, it wasn't it was pure laziness and tightness (she is watertight on spending on things that don't directly thrill her). The drive had no plants not even a pot of geraniums. All patreons are funding is her full time staff to wait on the ever broadening waisted woman, facilitate her bodged botox and her life of largesse. Her idleness beggars belief which is why she is looking so doughy round the middle, she has no core she literally is the human embodiment of a sloth. The self indulgence is horrific to behold also, but the life is so empty. I notice that Viv is not on the scene as much nor are Steve or Sarah. She can't maintain genuine friendships the only ones that last are with her motley crew of misfits, Potts (aka full size Peter Dinklage) Baghead (he is such a pathetic loser) and poor old Just for Men Oli. The rest are all there because they are paid to be, even Cuz has become more and more morose-having no purpose in life and no work is seriously bad for people and Lie land certainly shows that.

God what a duck fest that flog was. fan looked like a tube of over filled Primula cheese in that black dress it didn't fit anywhere, side tits hanging out, she has no clue. 100 Stars if they are not the manufacturer should be pissed, him trying to make out it is inspired by a guest oh Snorts you lying twit. A product designer who can't draw, can't use a Mac, has no idea about manufacture, no original thoughts and no idea of style.

Wasn't Mr. Drone loving his opportunity to talk on stage he is one sad duck. Imagine listening to him for 2 hours I would jump in the river with bricks round my neck. Natti has piled on the pounds since the bikini days too many beers. fan dancing was hilarious she has no rhythm or moves she dances like a 1970's Mum.

fan's face is unrecognisable from the early flogs and you have to give her A plus for gall. Showing that nothing has been done in 7 years, showing she rented out the Oiseaux room with those ghastly floral curtains (she has never given a tit, anyone who loves interiors would never have lived with that as a solution it makes your eyes bleed) and then the icing on the cake launching totally unoriginal over priced products on pre order when the kitchen bundles are still to arrive. I am not a fan of the 100 Stars fabric but at least they had an original idea which fan has now taken as her own.

Analise please get a sense of pride you're exceptionally pretty but Jesus they only have you as the plus size model they are laughing at you. Pavlina is brimming with self confidence she has a great bod but sadly not the face to match but I do like her. As for fan she just looks like a sorry old sap. She is even greedy with the botox-one lump or two?


I loathe Lumpy face

Don’t you love the way that Cuz n Ñutty and Stephanfraudie have revised the history of Cuz and nutty ? Chantel and Steven were not fond of.Nutty for many years. Remember how Cuz regaled Dan with his takes of nailing nutty within 24 hours of physically meeting her at the dump? Stephanie finally took down that portion of the video. Allegedly, if I remember correctly, Stephanie set her cousin up with.Nutty via emails, text, etc., to entice him to come to the dump and take the job. Once he arrived at the dump,Ñutty promptly bedded him and microchipped him, ran off any woman who looked his way, and refused to leave his side until they were married. There was nothing about his mother, telling him about how she spotted an attractive woman at the dump.

It is all revisionist, time traveling, bullshit by Stephanfraudie and the Richmonds to portray the duo in a different light. All lies. All the time, every day, all day.

There is always an element of sexualised smut on Chateau Diaries.

In this one vlog alone there's shirtless Amuary sitting on the terrace, boy did he think he looked tit hot. Pavlina posing in her Bianca Censori swimming cossie, she also thought she looked tit hot. Stephanie in her plunging one piece, posing provocatively in the paddle pool under her big hat, another one thinking she looked hot; Nati on full display in her bikini, and Stephen allegedly ogling Nati while watching the vlog and then telling Amuary to come look see. The last example I find most revolting, if it did actually happen. Who in their right mind in this day and age would think it's okay to have their aunt, uncle and cousin sexualising a staff member online and having a good old laugh about it. They are all off.

Congratulations @Pekey . . . you're on a roll!!! x

I am at a loss to understand this Kitchen Company. When I had my new kitchen detailed plans with MEASUREMENTS were drawn and visual elevations of various combinations made, discussions had and a finalised look created, planned and ordered. The cupboard units / appliances were made to fit existing walls by using 1 inch thick "end panels"/ "posts" to beef up the look adding balance / symetery to the overall look. The fridge unit at CHMN who thought it looked correct without the post at the left hand side to mirror the right, wonky donkey, this should have been obvious looking at an elevation drawing. Same for the buffet run, it all seems half a job / after thoughts to me.
The End Panels, Cornice and Skirtings and Bridge Units along with extra in cupboard drawers really bumped my price up along with my expensive normal tap as did the carousel top / bottom unit with built in chopping board across the corner worksurface but these extras "elevated" the kitchen and are fabulous as are the many deep pan drawers. My sockets are under the wall cabinets leaving the walls free and another set rise out of the Worktop.

 

[Pekey]

Thank you once again ComtesseRose for all you do ....... Big Kiss But........... you said "From the Garden" !!!!!

Thank you Lady A. for the nom. ..... my gosh Gertie, I am on a roll !

 

[Pekey]

With all the coloured cupboards coming in plus the stove ...... I forgot about the wallpaper and tiles like you said in the last thread Gertie !!!

I am so with you ....... this is going to be EPIC when they go up plus the plates all down the corridor from the Crazy Kitchen !

I would HATE to get out a bloody ladder and set it up just to get maybe one pot or cake tin !!!

 

[BigGreenMeany]

Just saying - this kitchen looks cheap and IKEA agrees with me!

I need help, a NZ tattler has to come and do an intervention, please bring me back to reality. I dont ususally look at lalalande vlogs but have been lately incase I miss something.

Confession, I am starting to like them, why because i cant wait to see the final reveal, I want to see what other stuff ups are going to happen, I want to see the piddling little moroccan sink overflowing not being able to take the amount of water.

 

[Just Grift Wood]

Well done @Pekey and thanks @Lady Avonlea

I notice we are down a lot of tattlers so if we are all getting bored how long till the crazies start to ask questions? Probably never I say.

Pube Boy wants Royal Copenhagen because he has had to buy it all and it is more expensive than the Spode and he has to put his mark on everything, like a yappy little wire haired dog, pissing everywhere to mark its territory

 

[Fleur du mal]

*sigh* About the chicken...they got a Turken and a Light Sussex, which, like a commenter said, should be quarantined for a month before "sloooowly" introducing them to the flock.
*sigh*About the dog and cat....when will Galahad lose an eye?
*sigh* About the Rubik's cube kitchen...is this the first kitchen she ever bought? Probably, or she would know that these people usually know what they are doing, mainly because they have completed their training and education.

Thanks, Comtesse ! I know I don't say it often enough, but be assured I appreciate your efforts.

I’m banging my head against the wall figuratively wondering how that wallpaper is going to work next to the green old whatever the hell it is that she cannot part with. The thing that she used to have the plates on. The wallpaper is going to be a shade of blue with cream, right? It’s an Easter egg fiasco more than I thought before. And that scullery pink is absolutely abhorrent. And washing the herbs near where they’re going to be washing the dishes? Oh come on. They should be washing in the same place as the vegetables. She is just completely off the wall. And the price that they paid for those cabinets and they don’t look quality to me or at least they don’t look quality enough to have cost that much. And I am trying to figure out the price of the range cooker and what I saw online was at least in the range of $25,000 but it’s probably more. Imagine putting all of that expensive s**t into that place and it could just fall down around them. I still wonder if those beams will cause the walls to fall in on the Grande Salon! I just feel like this is putting money into a dead horse. I wonder what will happen with those pipes above the ceiling in the kitchen. Are they really totally fixed for sure? Someone needs to tell Philip to stop stuffing so many baby wipes down the drain. the one thing I was impressed with was Marie wearing gloves to prepare the food for the guests. It contrasts completely with the way fan always sticks her bare fingers into food when Marie’s preparing it. And I just want to knock her hand back and I’m sure that Marie has to control herself in order not to do that. I hope that Marie gets an offer from an amazing place away from there to be a chef at some point.

She's probably spent (tax write off?) best part of 100K all in, if not more.

Totally over the top, especially considering the sodding windows are rotten, the rendering outside is blown and now has a swarm of bees in it. Also my biggest bug bear NO HEATING!

If I was the cook there, she'd only stick her hand in to pinch food once as she'd get a knife in the back of it!

I think Marie will stay, she'd have to be dragged away. In her mind it's her happy place, says a lot about her mind.

 

[Fleur du mal]

Am I greedy, or were the offerings they brought for the crew a bit on the slim side ( for a change, hahaha ), and fan already claimed half of it? I would have bought way more, but that's just me feeding everyone.

I think fan will be way higher than that based on that example I posted if you add everything together, the Range alone was a ridiculous price,
then add Ben and Chris and new French Plumber, eye watering, no wonder she had tears.

You know what Jackie...... I would not be surprised if she "does a runner" as she is not so happy seeing all the new stuff going in plus she has to work that stove and climb that ladder - she will be in a "Sound of Music" atmosphere all the time while cooking !!

Climb every mountain - ladder .
Search high and low for the pot and lid .

 

[Lady Pinkadella]

The kitchen is already as colorful as a rainbow (in a negative sense). Adding the wallpaper, the backsplash and at least one ugly painting by her perverted daddy anyone who enters the kitchen will suffer a psychedelic shock. Hanni will lose her job as dealer; one visit to the kitchen is enough to trigger a horror trip. The idea of making curtains out of the paintings could only come from a colorblind person.

Wait for the wallpaper being installed (it is yet to be printed) there will be more paste all over the new cupboards / worksurfaces and radiator covers than on the wall with the guaranteed gaps in the seams to be crayoned in.

The amount of pie she bought was enough for two people tops she was filling them up on bread. She is water tight.


Can we estimate how much money fan has grifted on the channel in 7 years and how much she has actually spent on renovations?
