I had to come on and comment after reading this thread for some time. I am a first time mum, young baby and it’s not easy. I’m sure there will be times I wish for my old life back.

I am also a social worker and work with children and adults that have experienced early life trauma and attachment issues.

The way these two leave their child, give off the impression he is a massive inconvenience to their lives, the way they speak to him and about him is something he is going to pick up on.I really worry for his emotional health as he grows older. It doesn’t appear that these two are very emotionally available to him and it’s very sad.

The video yesterday with maeva rocking him quite aggressively and clearly being pissed off was actually a bit shocking and the fact that they both shared it shows that of them have any awareness of how it might be impacting on him.

James’ video of them playing a board game whilst baby is sat in his play pen and then he shuts the door on him and he doesn’t even react isn’t normal. Most children would cry or be worried about not being able to see their parents. He didn’t react at all. I find it odd that you’d call the play pen a prison and close the door and say bye as if you’re trapping him in.

They are beyond selfish and this is from someone that cried when I found out I was pregnant because I worried about the life I was saying goodbye to. I have no doubt it is hard but she doesn’t work, they have money, they have a nice life and a beautiful healthy child and all she bangs on about is her post partum body being fat and ruined (fat from it) and her hair being crap.

I liked her once. He is a nob.
Agree with all of this. She wanted a baby to trap him, but neither of them actually wanted a child for life. The baby isn't used to them - he's farmed out to anyone that will have him. In his first six weeks he spent three of those with Granny.
 
I did find it cruel that James was almost goading and mocking Beau in that playpen, aswell as goading his followers I'm sure, as he shared a dm from someone saying "he's not an animal", and although beau is too little to understand just yet, I can imagine James playing cruel emotional games with him throughout his childhood. I can't stand him, he's a childish prick, not father material in the slightest.
 
I don’t watch MIC but see clips online, can anyone tell me how the engagement happened from what I saw he kept saying no and then she proposed to him and he still said no?

He said no to her because that was taking the control away from him. It had to be his way or no way. I think he proposed when they were on holiday… maybe in Italy, I could be wrong lol

I don’t think it was about control as much as it was just him feeling slightly embarrassed, and maybe even emasculated by her proposing to him. Just because of how unconventional it is. Plus proposing is special for a guy and he probably did want to have the chance to do that.
 
I get what you’re saying but if you’re in a committed relationship with someone and you’ve mutually agreed a method of contraception then it’s not unreasonable to expect that it is being used correctly. Obviously accidents can happen and most contraception companies isn’t 100% effective

Nah, if you're that worried as a bloke, stick a condom on, it's not rocket science.
 
My thing about Maeva is that she is constantly miserable, cantankerous, and immature. She is always telling James what she wants for her wedding, etc. And I wonder how he feels he being with someone who can make all these demands but does not seem to have any ambition to do much with her life but be kept by him. She doesn't even seem to work on other things outside of a career. Not self improvement. Nothing.

They are both seem to view Beau as a a possession and I get the feeling his grandparents on both sides will have to be who he looks to for parental support and care. I get the impression that his childhood will be the 'seen but not heard' type to make their lives easier.
 
This ‘baby trapping’ narrative is so off- it takes two people to get pregnant and he’s responsible as well. They’re both stupid if they thought having a baby wouldn’t turn their worlds upside down and it’s just as much on him as it is her.
Look I’m female so no sexism intended but if I just stopped taking the pill one day my bloke would never know :) obviously it’s both their responsibility, but it is easier as a woman to mislead
