I feel like if she went to a wellness retreat for burnout they would have just said and she might have just waited until after her sisters wedding

Totally agree! Why would you go to rehab for burnout and have to leave half way through to go to your sisters wedding, you would 100% wait until afterwards! Also her poor sister, wouldn't be surprised if she was super resentful in a few years!
 
I vaguely remember Jamie saying on their podcast (or was it Spencer’s podcast?) a while back that he often started ‘forgetting’ that Sophie was his (then) fiancé and not his business partner and that they were frequently arguing about the pressure he was putting on her about the podcasts etc. I have no doubt the podcasts and the pressure from the wedding got all too much for her.
 
Burnout also doesn’t have the same stigma that addiction or eating disorders unfortunately do. If she was overworked and tired from her successful career wouldn’t they just say?!

Edit: does anyone remember when Kanye had to cancel his tour and go to a facility for ‘burnout and exhaustion’ when it was actually opiate abuse? (LOL that I’m comparing Sophie habboo to Kanye)

This whole thing is wild. I think she should have refrained from following anyone connected to the rehab centre. With her MIA for so long, people will naturally start looking for these clues on her social media. Also, Jamie saying on the podcast that she isn't staying with him ATM was a dumb move 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

I’m actually glad she followed the accounts, because that provided factual tea and info for us haha! I love gossips but even better when there’s actual evidence backing the gossip😅
 
Why would Sophie have burnout? It’s usually people with incredibly stressful jobs (people who work long shifts without days off, or people under a lot of pressure with targets to meet etc), or people with stressful life situations that suffer from burnout. Not someone who’s ‘career’ is posting on social media and making a podcast a couple of times a week, with plenty of downtime to spend on socialising, beauty treatments and generally enjoying herself!
 
They talked about how stressed Sophie was in the run up to the wedding on the podcast (that she was obsessively cleaning the house etc) - they were downplaying it with jokes but underneath it did sound quite serious and like it was really affecting her. Jamie and her family sounded very worried (I think they were talking about possibly cancelling the wedding it was that bad). Wouldn't be surprised if she was there for burnout/mental health related problems. I know that they have a really wonderful and privileged life but mental illness doesn't discriminate.

I agree mental illness doesn’t discriminate and I remember her saying she was exhausted with commitments but I still don’t think they’d send her to South Africa before her sisters wedding. There are plenty of wellness retreats even in Spain which would have made things a lot easier for her. I think she had to be far away from something

bravo! Well done!!! Cannot believe she's genuinely been to rehab for a coke additiction, wow! That has really shocked me and completely changed my opinion of her! She should not be in the public eye. Think of how many stars have been cancelled because of drugs!

I think that pretty much everyone in her circle and in the public eye have taken coke at some point… it seems to be that common.

But to have an 'addiction' where you have to go to a rehab facility in South Africa is really not that common!

Lol this reminded me of manifestation queen Roxie Nafousi…. Who claims she had a coke addiction, kept going to juice retreats to sober up and then would return from the retreat and go on a coke bender the same day…. But she ✨manifested✨ getting clean and becoming a social media star, now conning thousands of people into manifesting the good life too. 🙄 note she’s also from that same MIC circle… was besties with Millie Mackintosh at some point who is also known to have loved the ❄️.

Not starting beef, honestly! Just as someone who’s been suffering with my mental health on too many different ways to explain…. Being asked “Why are you depressed? Life is beautiful l!” is like saying “Why do you have asthma? There is so much air!”
