As influencers go, I actually like Zoe and Alfie - they seem like nice people and good parents - but so many of their posts when it comes to parenting and life in general is very tone deaf.
They say they're slowing down... but when have they ever had a super busy life? I'm only judging by their vlogs, but I'd imagine it's very rare. Everything has always been on their own terms, on their own schedule. And that's very lovely for them, but them complaining about how tired they are now with 2 kids, "how do people do this" etc... come on.
Both have come from quite privileged upbringings too, which I think shows... if either one of them hadn't been, I think there'd be a bit more self-awareness there in how daft they sound sometimes.

I just don't get why he doesn't just tell the truth and say Zoe and Myself are now retired millionaires.
All this skirting around it with things like 'we've slowed down now to just soak in the family years' and 'the office is now an unused room up in the attic for the foreseeable'
I imagine they could legitimately call themselves landlords as i assume they own many properties around Brighton and are coining it in with rent while minions do the renovating but they never publicly admit to that he'd rather just talk twaddle .
I'd actually really rate them if they were honest about that kind of thing. It's no bad thing to be aspirational - I love hearing about how people have made a success of themselves, like good for them. It's worse when people pretend and hide things to try and be relatable.
