I think it’s fairly safe to say she’ll have gone through all the cottage sale money some time ago, given her spendy, wasteful ways. She doesn’t come across as the saving/pensions/investments type and people can get through big sums of money surprisingly quickly when they make no attempt to control their spending.
The weeping at the dining table was a little bit odd - not the crying fit itself, most of us have a bit of a random cry every now and again, but filming it, explaining it and leaving it in the video was an interesting choice. I don’t think I‘ve ever seen her cry before.
