She’s a helicopter parent always following him hanging over him. How she’s going to do that whilst looking after a newborn and breastfeeding too. It’s not like your first where you can just lie in bed all day and feed and stare all day at your baby it’s sooo much harder
I think she could’ve prepared Beau so much more for the new baby, it’s sad as he will probably struggle more than he would’ve as a result! She said in a video just the other day that she still puts him in the car and drives to get him to sleep for his naps, how will that work with a newborn who wants to cluster feed all the time?
This ! I also find it hilarious she thinks she’s hacked parenting by teaching Beau to only sleep in his pram, but then right before their Sri Lanka holiday she was panicking because he was getting too big for his pram lol.

Martin looks ancient to be fair.

Or her latest parenting hack is that she’s taught him to sleep at anytime with the sunlight in without a routine. I bet my bottom dollar that child has daily meltdowns from being over tired, the parts she doesn’t show. Then at that point she puts him down for a sleep and he’s so exhausted he goes to sleep, or protests where he’s overtired but of course she would never show that. No hate to anyone who chooses not to put their child into a routine, but I really do not believe it’s all sunshine and roses like she makes out.

I’m so glad I thought to look up Olivia Hammond. I’ve been unsure whether she’s got more self awareness and is being ironic and knows how she comes across, and I feel bad because of what they went through medically with Beau, but she rubs me up the wrong way! She just seems the personification of a toxic posh girl cosplaying working-class aesthetics while not being able to resist boasting about how much £££ they have.

I know Olivia loves hanging out just her a beau but honestly I don’t know how she does it all day every day pretty much just her and beau! Martin is working or at golf or out with mates over the weekend! How do they ever see each other

I think I actually defended him going out before because he works hard etc but actually seeing a whole weekend of him out now I’m like hmm nah what will she do when she has another baby! I think this is why beau is so clingy with her

I don’t know if she truly loves it as much as she says she does.
it’s a necessity for her. Martin goes out or away. She has no siblings that she’s close enough with. Her parents moved to Portugal when she had Beau and she’s openly posted about how their relationship with Beau “improved” so much the last time her parents came to the U.K. so they obviously aren’t massively interested in her or their grandchild, and we know she has no friends that are interested in spending time with her and Beau. I don’t think she likes hanging out with him as much as she claims; I think she does it all to save face personally

I didn't know he went to a childminder - I guess if she can afford it then I can see why she sends him.

Plenty of children are in nursery around Beau’s age aren’t they? Or is it more childminding since he’s one? Not too sure how it works, but wouldn’t it be beneficial for him to experience more time away from his mother etc before his new sibling comes? But to be fair it’s probably pricey as hell (combined with them wanting a new car, that renovation, however much glass to cost etc(

I actually struggled to watch her on maternity because she does just show how amazing spending all day alone with a baby is and it’s bloody hard work (I say this as someone who is a solo parent to a similar age baby who works full time / does have child free days, I have lots of family around and friends with babies which she doesn’t seem to have much of) but I think I’m just thinking of those long days with a baby where you’re counting down the hours till bedtime and you’re exhausted and haven’t stopped etc I don’t see how she’s not pulling her hair out. I just thinking knowing how long those days can feel I would feel (and did when I was in that situation) a bit resentful of a partner who works all week (yes he works hard but by going to work he’s also getting to socialise, get outside, have a break, go to the gym, go for a shower, wee, eat etc all in his own time) and then socialising all weekend or playing in a band which you could say is work but that’s a passion surely! it’s not a once in a while thing either

She said some time ago that he will start forest school when he turns 2. Yes most kids that age are in nursery unless they are with a sahp

Just watched her last video and actually felt sorry for her. Martin doesn’t seem like a supportive partner at all… she on about going home on a taxi crying because she is pregnant and tired and Martin wants to stay out partying.. she is far more tolerant that I would be! And I’m not sure I heard it right but I think she said he is going to Ibiza to celebrate his birthday while she goes to her parents in Portugal?
What partner goes off to party in Ibiza celebrating his birthday away from his son and pregnant fiancé? That just sounds so odd to me but maybe is just my relationship that is so different from hers

He's in his 30s too isn't he? so not as if they're both still very young.
So, if he works all week inc Saturdays then plays Golf on Sunday the wedding band stuff must be on a Saturday night so he must spend very little time with her and Beau.
