Posh people in the UK definitely do have a lot - William and Kate gave their kids 6 each! So 8 seems extra excessive 😂

Most children I know of if they're baptised in the Church of England or Catholic Church just get two.
 
So kind of her to do all us plebs a favour

I think she was doing okay until the last few questions
The last one on Zak’s job and how only his hard work got him to where he is, but then caveats that he also had financial freedom - of course the people who have also had financial freedom don’t appreciate it or understand how hard the other side is

Maybe Saff, he wouldn’t have been able to work as hard if he was also doing 30 hours a week in the student union bar to pay rent etc which is massively privileged

And the bloody cheek to say that bad language proliferates in the media around women’s body when her dad worked for the daily mail 🙄

i hate when people don’t realise the financial privilege they have and how helpful it is for them :( knowing you can move back home/have family bail you out can so influence your decisions. if it was all just hard work then so many working class kids would be doing this stuff
 
Agree with above posters on Zac’s privilege certainly enabling him to set up his company (which I’ve never heard of but that’s besides the point). I don’t know how the company is set up but he also potentially benefited from investments from family / family friends, contacts in the industry, just the general self-confidence a public school education gives people.

Yes 100% - again, her dad was very senior at the DM so it is without a doubt he would be able to connect his future son in law with the right people

Someone without those connections / the money to not have to work part time hours a week on top of studying would never have been able to achieve that - her husband obviously works incredibly hard and it’s not like this was handed to him on a plate, but she can’t deny the huge helping hand he was given

doesn't that sum her up in general - sleep training, getting engaged and married extremely early, not working, having a child young. i can bet a pound or two that she's looking down on people who didn't grow up with wealth, private schools and a fancy lifestyle who is making similar life choices

Funny you say that. Look at today’s insta and the comments!

I feel that Saff will forever be this type of person. Everything and literally everything she talks about is either her, her life, her family. Very few friends seem to feature and money is everything to her.

Ive just caught up with this thread and hadn’t looked since before she left M to cry for an hour. This is something I wouldn’t have done but like another poster said, her mum encouraged it and what Granny Weebs says goes! Her mother clearly loves herself and this has passed down to Saff.

Although Saff was engaged at 18 (you know the drill) I think she’s finding motherhood much, much harder than she imagined. She clearly says she can’t cope with the mess, she broke the cot last week because instead of getting a teething baby out of it to comfort her she got in a broke it! This insisting that M is in her cot regardless is getting a bit much. I get she wants her to sleep but sometimes you have to realise your baby is in pain.

Today’s insta is beyond snobby and I think she’s pushing herself a bit far and people will get sick of her. When she says Margot’s stocks and shares ISA I just despair. Money whispers Saff. You don’t keep shouting about it if you’ve got it!

Saff realising a baby does not just fit and slip in comfortably into your life!

The age /stage Margot is at, it is HARD work and will be for the next couple of years and it can be relentless. Teething, non stop cough, colds, temperatures- they come down unwell in a nano and buck up in a nano and all forementioned cause lack of sleep with a grumpy baby/toddler. As they would have experienced in Bruges recently when Margot came down ill there. You just can't live the same life with a very young baby as you did pre baby.

Re the cry it out sleep training - her Mother commented on the post that she did it with Saff and all was OK.. maybe it wasn't OK, maybe that's why Saff is a very needy, clingy, attention seeking young woman in need of so much validation.

Absolutely agree! In this day and age most 20 somethings have more about them than wanting a new wardrobe or facial.

I feel she’s a good homemaker but she wants Margot to fit in a box and I can’t see that working. It’s terribly sad really when you look deeply into her life. Her mum is very me, me, me and all they do is eat, shop, rinse and repeat. No substance. Does she even take Margot to activities and groups that she’d enjoy? It honestly feels like it’s all about shopping and GRWM’s grrrr
