I mean, wasn't she literally just complaining that her partner was too messy and interrupted her alone time and messed up her chi and she couldnt relax in the bath because he was having the audacity to exist in the next room or something? You think the woman who can't bear sharing her time and space with an adult should introduce a needy loud messy infant into her life?

Having a grown man not take on his responsibilities in the household isn’t the same as taking care of a baby. A lot of moms actually say they find it easier to parent when their partner is away because they don’t have an extra person to clean up after.

Kids aren’t a magic fix to solve a lack of purpose or lack of fulfilment.

Only Estee herself can try to fix that.

Also pet ownership is a world away from parenting.

It’s normal to want kids and find fulfilment in parenting. I don’t know what other reason for having a kid is as valid as “it would make me happy”.
and I know pets aren’t the same as children, I was making a point that she has been consistently devoted to her two dogs over the years so I don’t see why she would suddenly be unable to handle a long term commitment. The person likened a kid to a prop she could give away and I was simply saying that she’s never come close to giving up on her dogs so I don’t see why she would do the same for a child.

… what!!! This is not what being a mum is (or should be) about 🫣 getting cute outfits and making mum friends at the drop of a hat? As a new mum I can confirm this will not be Estee’s reality 😬 she can barely function alone.

It’s not about what having a child can do for you, it’s what can you give and bring to a child.

Yeah I know that’s not all the parts of being a mum. Where did I say that? I said she would enjoy a lot of elements of it. Are you only allowed to be a mum if you’re doom and gloom all the time and never enjoy any parts of it?
She’s talked about the things she’s excited about doing with her kids in the past and I was referencing that. Plus she has money, which makes things a lot easier.

Where did I say that she would "give her kid away"? :rolleyes:
 
Wanting a kid because "it will make me happy" is not really a good thing... Wanting a kid because you have a strong maternal feeling, that you have a lot of maternal love to give, that you can feel inside that your purpose was always to be a mum / raise someone / educate them / be their rock... This is what parenthood is about.
Not to feel the void you feel inside of you and you think a kid is gonna fill...
Estée has been trash talking about Effie just as much as she's been about her husband. Okay, she might not have realised owning a dog is not all rainbows and they too can have stress. But does she realise kids are the same, and that kids grow up into anxious adults sometimes? Does she think she will have the same dedication her mom has for her when her kid calls her every other day to sob dramatically about her poor rich girl life ?

Thank you @scparis89 for the most voted thread title, I just added the last bit since things seem to be shifting.

I wonder if her fiancée Ben ever heard her talk badly about him after he was "encouraged" to propose on all those podcasts and interviews, she kept saying such unkind things about him. He proposed to her and the she still did all those interviews and podcasts flexing about getting her ultimatum, like the guy held your hand and asked you like you wanted, why keep being aggressive about it? She lost a relationship, that's the worst part, the marriage is just a bonus. Guy is not perf but she'd take anyone it seems.


Looks like the dream wedding that had nothing to do with two people actually co existing together ended.

I know lots of people who have babies with no money and no drive and just for the sake of having them. I think wanting to be a mom goes a long way. I think Estee wanting to be a mom means she would put in the effort and like others mentioned she has money which already helps her out a lot.

But the lifestyle she leads is quite self centred. Even with regards to Effie didn't she move between multiple places justifying it with "Effie needs more space" and then when the new apartment came up she moved her there anyway despite it being a lot smaller?

I think she'd do the same for her kid even if it isn't in their best interests because it is what she wants.

It seems like she'd shoehorn the kid into her own lifestyle instead of thinking "I'm in a great place to raise a child."

I'm sure she has the means to provide for her child but I think it takes more than money and resource. Maybe you have to have that emotional capacity to put something before your own wants which hasn't really been evident in anything she's done. Everything she has done so far has been on her own terms.

I can't really stand Estee at all and there is so much wrong with that person, but I can get behind this opinion.
 
This conversation we're having reminds me of the video she had 3-4 years ago, she struggled living alone with Effie on top of her anxiety and depression, adding a kid is a lot if she wants to choose to be a single parent, I honestly have no idea how those parents do it, fing superheroes in my eyes.

I guess she met Ben right around that time, she said it was in beginning of Covid, wild time to date! So this was her just dealing with a dog on her own, in the end she talked about losing Reggie and my heart always hurts at that part, not gonna lie. Think it really affected her going forward.
 
Sorry im new here but big poster on amelias thread. Joined this to see all the speculation of the broken engagement. Does anyone happen to have a picture of Ben ? to be honest estees engagement is shaking me up did she catch the disease Amelia had of constantly repelling guys?

Respectfully disagree. I think Estee has wanted to be a mom for a while and it would be great focus for her energy and affection. I think she would love being a mom blogger and getting cute outfits together and making other mom friends in London. Obviously being a mom is hard work but I think she’d enjoy having the family she’s always wanted.

Sure - IF everything with the baby was typical and normal. That’s a big if. And then if it became a typical and normal child with no complex needs. Also an if.
 
has anyone watched amelia's wedding vlog? she goes shopping with estee and they buy her an ''emotional support animal'' and estee starts to cry in the middle of the shop, i think it's safe to say she's going through a breakup 😅 i do think the hug amelia gave her was comforting and genuine, she made sure to take estee everywhere and probably invited her to make her feel better
