I’m gonna sound like a right crank with this but does anyone else found the whole Chloe and Jordan name talking weird? I’m all for someone keeping their name in marriage but I just found it odd. Considering Marley is an Edwards and most women with kids I’ve come across always say they’ll love to be married to have the same surname as their kids but Chloe’s response to wanting to be different to Marley and Jordan it just doesn’t sit right with me

I don’t think it’s weird. Didn’t she say she was going to Patton- Edwards anyway?
I have friends where keeping their own name is really important to them if they got married

I think it’s cause in her head she’s this massive celeb now and doesn’t want to change her name 😭 (like when Kim Kardashian wouldn't change hers). Chloe lives in a fairyland and I think she thinks of herself as someone mega famous lol. I think if it was years ago she would’ve been buzzing to change it to Edwards.

I genuinely think this is because she thinks she’s some famous influencer and is worried to lose the ‘Patton’ in case people don’t know who she is or can’t find her online! Since she’s become a z lister she’s even more obnoxious and draining then before

💯 I think this is the reason she doesn’t want more children at the mo either . In her head she thinks she’s this boss witch who has a top influencing career 😩😂

I get a lot of people double barrel but I don’t think she’s doing it to keep her name in some kind of independent woman stance, I think it’s just another way to irritate Jordan or to test him. I feel like all she wants lately is to get a reaction out of him but not a good one.
 
yeah but like I said in my previous post if ITS said ‘Chloe we will offer you a maternity range’ she would jump on Jordan like flies on chips to get pregnant
Exactly . Plus her whole image is from being on teen mum 😭 so having more children won’t harm her ‘huge’ career 😂 look at people like Sam and Billie who have continued having children and still made money from being mummy type influencers.. I think Chloe compares herself with all the love island types who are under her manager though instead of realising she didn’t come off love island ffs
 
I don't really think it's strange Chloe doesn't want to lose her name. There was a whole conversation last night about how she feels like she's getting her own sense of identity back compared to being 'Marley's Mum' for ages. I'm not a fan of her but I think that's a weird thing to criticise her for tbh.

What gives me the creeps a bit is the way Jordan seems to think giving her the ring means she'll have another baby. If I were her I'd be seriously questioning why someone so reluctant to marry her is so keen to have yet another baby with her. A baby is more of a commitment than getting married and he's saying he doesn't want to get married for 5 years or something?

Yeah I don't think it's that weird. Probably the way she was saying she wants to he unique. I've been with my partner 15 years and we have 2 children and we are not married. Our kids have my surname coz I gave birth to them! Lol, So I broke 'tradition' that way coz I wanted us to have the same name, they still know who the dad is lol.
 
Fair enough, your a better woman than me because if I was Erin I wouldn’t wanna speak to Mia either. I agreed about being civil and coparenting but the last 2 episodes we’ve just seen them flirting. I don’t want to believe Mia would go out of her way to ruin a relationship just because she can.. but its funny that she was fine not speaking to Manley whilst she was in a relationship yet as soon as she’s single and manleys back with Erin all of a sudden she desperately needs to speak to him and have a good relationship ‘for marliyah’ when it suits Mia more like. It’s kind of hard to defend Mia the way she’s been acting with Manley is more than being civil coperents and proves Erin was right to be suspicious.


Exactlyyyyy, if I was Erin Mia would be getting a big fat duck off from me, certainly not meeting up ‘for a chat’ so she can reassure me she doesn’t want my man with a smug look on her face. It’s all well and good people saying they should rise above and put it all aside for the girls, but we don’t live in an ideal world and there has been 6+ years of drama between these 3. I think Erin has been mature in the fact she’s sat back and kept her mouth shut for all this time.
I got asked if I was Erin for saying that Mia is sly 😆 I know she’s a favourite now because she’s come off really well on this season, but she went from total silence with Manley to being Co-parents of the year and doing bike riding and meetings together. The flirting between them is off the scale! I think both her and Erin either need to have a fair discussion, or get in the ring and box it out, because this whole stupid tit for tat between them is painful and there’s two lovely kids involved. Oh and Manley is a massive bell end
 
I’m finding Jordan an interesting one recently, I think Chloe was a little stay at home mummy when he was off dipping his wick, and as much as she’s tried to be all controlling, he had her locked away at home whilst he did his things and went on lads weekends. Now the tables have turned and she’s doing more, (albeit being an annoying wannabe influencer) he wants her locking back down with another baby and thinks an engagement ring will encourage her.
 
He thinks this because she literally said it to him 😂
What she's actually said 'if you propose then I'll have another baby'? That's not what I've heard, it's been obvious for ages she doesn't feel ready to have another baby yet and that her priority was getting engaged, not that it's a transactional thing where ring = baby. Given his cheating etc I understand why she might not want the commitment of another baby with him and maybe wants to wait and see if he will actually commit to her by getting married - not that she'd say that on TV, but it's the sensible thing to do. Giving her a ring but kicking the wedding 5 years down the line, there's no chance I'd have another baby with that guy either.

She has come on leaps and bounds in terms of taking care of herself a bit better and her confidence. His reaction to her photoshoot made me really sad for her tbh. It's like he doesn't really want her but doesn't want her to meet someone else.
 
I think it’s more weird that Jordan wants another baby when we don’t really see him interact with Marley! It’s only been few and far between but the time he wouldn’t get up cos he was hungover and the time he was at his mams and his mam had him. Maybe the tables have turned and he’s had Marley while Chloe’s been out influencing and realised he wants another soon. There’s a lot that gets hidden with those 2 for sure and I reckon Chloe had schooled herself into only showing what she wants after the sexting thing was broadcast on the series. She 100% want the lifestyle she’s starting to have because she knows they won’t get married next week and to say she has her freedom back she isn’t gonna want to give that up, as that’s only gonna become more apparent as time goes on and Marley gets older. There’s nothing wrong with any of that if that’s what they want but their story is now irrelevant if that’s the case and we aren’t being shown anything in a true light
 
Just watched the last episode and I honestly think Jordan seems more interested in Chloe now than she does him. I’ve always got the vibe he’s uncomfortable in front of the camera but he’s seemed so different this season, more confident. I completely get the not wanting to take on his name and the origin of this tradition is to become the man’s possession 🙈 it’s becoming more popular to double barrel surnames and a lot of the time it’s both the man and woman that do this not just the wife do would Jordan be happy to be Jordan Patton-Edwards? As for the wanting baby 2 or not wanting should I say, it seems Jordan may have grown out of the lads holidays stage where as Chloe hasn’t had the same experiences as him over the years (through her choice, I’m sure she mentioned a girls holiday in Ibiza she could have went on but decided not to a couple of seasons ago) and is wanting to embrace where this “influencer” life will take her

I feel like it’s exactly this. Him trying to force the second baby issue made me really uncomfortable, as did the surname discussion. She’s found her feet and he really doesn’t like it, maybe they both need to accept that this is all for convenience and they’re not really in love anymore
 
Chloe’s storyline has been so calculated and feels so scripted. The main 2 things she got hate for were in past seasons were the way that she dealt with Jordan’s depression and how Jordan didn’t even want her. Now she’s doing half marathons for men’s mental health and suddenly Jordan is entirely a new person and wants marriage and kids? She’s trying to redeem herself and is now desperate to give off the influencer image of a perfect life, there’s no way she’d show her actual arguments (that 100% still happen) on camera. Fair play to Sassi and Amber for actually being vulnerable and showing the arguments on camera for a closer to true reflection of their lives.
 
I get a lot of people double barrel but I don’t think she’s doing it to keep her name in some kind of independent woman stance, I think it’s just another way to irritate Jordan or to test him. I feel like all she wants lately is to get a reaction out of him but not a good one.
Yeah I’ve come across loads with double barrelled but normally it’s because the kids have one also but Marley is just Edwards. Chloe tried to have this independent woman persona and it just doesn’t work like even her excuse to have a double barrel name was “well I am different to you and Marley” so basically even if they did have another kid that kid would be edwards too. It just seemed so random and odd to me.

I don’t think it’s weird. Didn’t she say she was going to Patton- Edwards anyway?
I have friends where keeping their own name is really important to them if they got married
It’s not the keeping their own name I find weird it’s very common now days but it was the whole scene and Chloe’s reasoning for it that I found weird and odd.

Yeah I don't think it's that weird. Probably the way she was saying she wants to he unique. I've been with my partner 15 years and we have 2 children and we are not married. Our kids have my surname coz I gave birth to them! Lol, So I broke 'tradition' that way coz I wanted us to have the same name, they still know who the dad is lol.
Yeah this is what I’m getting at it’s not the keeping her name I find weird it’s her reasoning for it to be unique compared to marley and Jordan. Like a lot of mums I know that had kids outside of marriage say they want to be married and have the name so they’re the same as their child but just Chloe’s reasoning just seemed strange and odd to me her first thought is I want to be different compared to everyone in my little family

I agree her reasoning was weird in fact it wasn’t a valid reason at all, if it was me deciding to double barrel I’d want my husband/fiancé to double barrel as well, she never even suggested it
