Suggesting marriage to her just shows he's NOT been listening carefully! She's said pretty clearly that she's not interested in marriage. She figured that out in her marriage when she was young, and she didn't marry Potts ... or anyone else ... she doesn't want marriage or children, and he should know that! I agree with you, it will be a surprise if he's there at Easter ... maybe even earlier ... maybe he won't even make it to Venice.
I agree with you, but think it goes even further. The level of self- confidence she has shown by thinking she could control the narrative by dropping some footage of bedroom arrangements, over and over again, is astounding, She has gone to great length to keep her relationship hidden online, even in chats. But at the same time, in real life, everybody knew. She did not hand out NDA contracts nor did she order people not to talk about it, she just assumed everybody would honor her wishes of confidentiality automatically. It all plays into her favorite theory that 99,9% of the people are lovely and lovely people will not hurt her. Rude awakenings ahead: she doesn't belong to that majority even if that silly theory would be true.
Thing is, they all had to have that conversation with her, where SJ had to explain to them why she wanted to keep her relationship not just private but securely hidden from her loyal viewers. And those hosts agreed to it and played along, probably for the exposure she's bringing them. It did not cost them anything extra then, just an extra opportunity to show off more bedrooms. But it will cost them a lot now that the squirrel jumped out of her handbag...
Cant say much about my ‘gentle’ Response or I will give my identity away. I brought my own wine to the table as service was slow and I’d come up through Tuscany. I believe to onlookers outside my bubble I would have been a bit of a bellend. I would have deserved that title but in fairness, I matched the group.
For once, there's not much to intervene. It's not her money, not her chateau, not her vlog and not her life. She can from now on be the loving mother she never was, but from a distance.

blood honey Chapeau, that's it. Chateausexual.
Let me put it this way: IJ will be the first to throw Squirrel Philippa under the bus if she can save her daughter some headaches, especially now that it seems inevitable to also address things for the general public / non patrons.
Stephanie is just trying to be the victim, again. She makes everything a much bigger deal than it needs to be, everything! The “Dutch Boyfriend” being found out, is she 12, so what? The hall ceiling, the natural swimming pond or whatever she calls it, the heating, the plumbing, the lake years ago, a very tall tree that fell in the forest, in the middle of the night that no one heard during a storm & did no damage, the lying, the list goes on forever… There’s always something. Always! She is the queen of drama queens. I know she plays it up a tiny bit for YouTube content, but sometimes too much drama is too much. She is exhausting! I’m truly surprised that she has as many long term friends as she appears to, seems like she would burn through them.
Wow...sounds like you dodged a bullet there! Right out of high school in community college I met a guy who I knew was gay but he hadn't come out yet. I took him to clubs downtown and introduced him to a life where he could be himself. He told me last year he would have ended up married and in the closet out in the suburbs if I hadn't brought him out of his comfort zone and he thanked me for it. He died last month and I'm glad he didn't end up living some other version of his life because of circumstance.Gotta say, when I was young, I saw a very good looking young man, I though "gorgeous, gay, moving on" ended up dating him - he treated me like a 'real gentleman"years later - he called my parents house demanding to know if I was the person trying to "out" him - I was married and liking 3000 miles away and hadn't thought about him in a decade - so no... that wasn't me - but.... where there is a whole lotta smoke....
Buying time.
Thanks Tattlers, for calling this out. I hesitated to because, when I questioned someone on here last summer for making a homophobic comment, I was accused of troublemaking and possibly being aHmn...not so sure who are you refering to in your remarks...who are the Faggots?? who are the suckers?? who are those two?? who are the other two...please be more specific..Looking at your remarks...are you sure you belong here..or just looking for a hatesite??This place is not a hatesite.

I wonder if they are being used to deflect the current situation
Your forgetting a key component

OMG Marty are you my long lost sister. I read your story to my husband and he thought I had written it. I always knew something was (and still is) off with mum, she was a closet alcoholic for all my childhood, and I envied all my friends and their close relationships with their mums, but I had my beautiful Dad who passed away far too early. I was told from my earliest memory I was had as an excuse for her to stop working (that still hurts), my brother was the favourite, not so much now as other grandchildren become no1 love bombed, it gets shared with her new favourites, she needs constant adoration, and that is too exhausting for me. I moved 900kms away at a young age, and I am thankful I got out. We stay in touch via messenger mostly, as she still flips my anger switch all too easily. I have only recently (due to Tattle) analysed her behaviour, she has stopped her drinking, but a Narc she surely is. Sorry not meaning to derail, but your story rang so true to me. Who needs a shrink when we have loads of wisdom here. Sorry once again for my rambling, but bloody hell I am relieved to have gotten that off my chest... now back to Shittoo goss
She actually doesn't. What she has is assets, a party hub where "friends" want to spend some time every now and then. When they do, she doesn't mingle, but retreats to her pink boudoir. Apart from Larkin and Potty and maybe Oliver, no true friends at all.
Because she didn't tell the French authorities she was using volunteers for her own business which is against the French law ?
He surely did not plan to fall in love with her. But it's what happens when you are subjected to her love bombing 24/7.
The embrace was obvious enough for me...unless you're snogging someone, you're not likely to be nestled between their thighs with the persons arms around you as well. Yes, we cannot compare the two couples...it would be like comparing a bar of chocolate to a lemon...two entirely different things.
"Dana the cook" such an endearing description. I'm sure she'll be flattered.Look out @Clara Burnett you've been busted!
But Goat Boy, there are definitely rats in the farmhouse. And bonus points for calling it a farmhouse!

My guess is Clara Burnett from Tattle Life is getting her information from Dana the cook . Its obvious there's a mole at the farmhouse. No wonder the queens hide upstairs.
