Where do fashiony journo types go when they can no longer afford London? Margate? I presume Brighton is also too £££.

Yeah Margate is where they go. Or the rich ones buy a second home there.
Bringing in how much per month?! It's only EIKAL that sells well surely. The podcast, column etc will pay peanuts, the TV adaption no one will buy or re-watch sorry
Oh has she bought? Good for her then

Plus Dolly's parents aren't short a few bob to help with a deposit? She went to Rugby for sixth form ffs.
Which of course she always plays down with 'boring suburban upbringing' etc.

Edit: looked up fees, over £15k a term. So for those two years would have been more than £90k.
... and this is why she is a LL!

It’s all relative as she’ll need to stay in the same area for schooling and will be hit by stamp duty.

Not sure if allowed to say here but according to companies house she’s still running everything from what looks like her ex’s house.

Wow. A term fees is 1k less than my dad’s annual salary at the same time and he was supporting a family of 6 kids. She’s v relatable.

Sorry for double posting but I read an interview with Caroline o D the other day where she talked about her daily work schedule (as all writers must) and he schedule works out to be four hours of work a day. I’m so jealous!!!!!!!!! Then she walks the dog and gets a latte. At least she is honest about it whereas according to Panda, she works from 8-6 every day.

Caroline has also written 6 books and Pandora has written 1 book of essays and "edited" a collection where everyone else did the work. Take from that what you will

What do you guys think of Kate Sawyer? I quite like her books and podcast but wish she would keep photos of her child off social media. She's not really in the LL set but maybe wishes she was!
Just seen it’s on the market for £1,125mil!!

I actually feel sorry for Stacey. She’s barely owned it a year.

If I recall to be fair her parents scrimped and saved for private school, but yeah stillOtegha posting this when she herself went to private school and Oxford
she’s becoming such a jokeIf I recall to be fair her parents scrimped and saved for private school, but yeah still
I HATE this justification for private school -
'yeh but my parents worked really hard / it was a second rate private school/i was on scholarship.'
Whatever, you are still massively massively privileged and that should be acknowledged.

Has she bought it and flipped it, so now selling for a good profit? Or did she buy it and just can’t sustain the running costs? Such a shame if it’s the latter.
She bought it for 930 so must be trying to recoup her costs. She’s changed it a lot but tbh it’s a very acquired taste. Fine if you’re going to live there
