My goodness this man is pure Partridge.

I'm sure they tell you they open the gym early for you ...

Also, spends all morning swanning around away from family, expects lunch ready on table at 12pm then at 1.30 "I like to spend time with my four year old son..", but not that much time as at 3pm he locks himself away for "total war saga". AIBU to ask if this would be tolerated by any other normal family ?!

Interesting that the previous wives all got out quite quickly, two of them within a year.

Someone on twitter noted that it's just about readable and makes more sense if you say 'Parklife' after every sentence.

😂😂😂😂😂 Brilliant!

This thread has gone a bit bonkers! It's been reduced to referring children as a ' litter of '
Just awful.
I get that there aren't many Gregg fans on here but the thread has just got nastier the more it goes on.

A d also he's the older generation where I think men were out earning the bread and wife at home so he probably thinks 90 mins is a lot. And as pp says, it probably is compared to many. Sad as it is.
What a load of shit. He's the same age as me and Dh and our friendship group. There's not one of us that has a dh who thinks a women's place is at home. Heck, even my mum and dad didn't even think that and they are in their 80s. Same with their friends.The wives also worked and Dhs did child care and housework.
You still have some Netherlands now who have a twisted mind set that women belong in a kitchen but to speculate Gregg thinks this and you dont know him is mad.

I read an interview some time back in which his wife and mil were said to behave like geishas, fawning to his every whim. I remember being quite disturbed by the article.

I wonder if Heidi is still playing mummy to his first litter of kids while he's moved on to his second litter?

Show quote history

goodness me that Is harsh!

Zone2NorthLondon · 11/02/2024 13:04

Litter? What a nasty pejorative term for children.

oh I dunno Heidi sounds a bit controlling she doesn't sound a catch either!

🙄. He doesn’t come across well.

Oh god I have only just looked at the comments under this tweet...absolute gold! 50 shades of Ggregg anyone?

@TitsInAbsentia I'd put more trust in a health plan run by Greggs bakery.

TBF I do fancy a trip to Harvester. So it’s worked on me.

TitsInAbsentia · 11/02/2024 01:20

Page 3 and still no sign of any of you signing up for Greggle's .health plan then 😂
I'm assuming that was the whole purpose of this disastrous interview that he now wishes he'd slept in for....

I thought he had some kind of sponsorship deal for the Harvester as well

Somewhere, some copywriter is getting a bollocking that was passed through Greggs PA to his Agent to the Telegraph and so on... 'You've made me look an UTTER ARSEHOLE'...

And some copywriter is sniggering to themselves 'I know... ' and his agent and PA are standing well back, lobbing sausages at Gregg to keep him at bay whilst trying to point out that it is at least keeping him current.

LOL 🤣

He s always complaining about the autistic child he never spends any time with.

Ableist cunt.

He sounds a tosser but I have similar contempt for his wife in all fairness. You'd want your child to be wanted by both parents, surely? Agreeing to all sorts of terms and conditions just so she could have a child. Why not leave and find a man who actually did want one? Seems to me like she's chosen a financially comfortable life over giving her boy a dad who actually wanted him.

BobbyBiscuits · 10/02/2024 20:30

@FillFall Fair enough, but I won't be checking out her socials. It's not that deep. In this particular article he does not demonstrate any parenting, just 'spending time with his son' for 1.5 hours. The child has quite a few additional needs and it really sounds like he doesn't pull his weight. (Except at the gym when its meant to be shut). Haha.

FillFall · 10/02/2024 20:04

BobbyBiscuits · 10/02/2024 19:48

@FillFall I said she's 'probably' banned. I'm not about to start checking. I feel sorry for her and I will continue to do so as long as they are together (or his next wife I will feel the same about). I didn't say she was or wasn't stunning. That's hardly the point. Yeah, why ARE you defending him? haha.

You should check out her social media. She looks pretty happy to me.

I only commented on her looks as I was struck how pretty she was but I agree that it's irrelevant.

I'm only arguing about the comments about Gregg Wallace being a bad Dad when I don't think there is any reason to think that. I think those comments are nasty.

He comes across as a bit of a knob but that's not the end of the world.

Well if it harms his career, I won't be crying.
