To think Tamara Ecclestone is the luckiest woman alive

Is she the luckiest woman humanity has ever seen?

Only to you, OP. You seem a but star struck.

Most posts on MN could be classed as "pointless".

But we look beyond that, and we help each other, and we are not rude.

I'm sorry that you were. You have no manners.

If you don't like something, just scroll on....

It's not really a good idea to look on other people's lives with jealousy. It just diminishes your own experiences when in reality people like TE has always had an incredibly privileged '1% club' life and hence doesn't face the daily struggles the vast majority of us have.

I'd be amazed if there wasn't always a little bit of a question mark in the back of her mind as to whether those close to her are there for her or attracted to Daddy's money.

Never heard of her? Does she post her kids on Ig? If she does she's not a very good mum

I remember it being reported that her sister's wedding cost something like £10m. And the groom was the dodgiest of the dodgy of the dodge.

I always thought her husband gave off the impression that he tolerates her because of the lifestyle. She also comes across that way too , just to keep the family image. Who knows really. It does say a lot that she never posts about the older sibling who had quite the opposite upbringing. Or her mother who she doesn't acknowledge as much as her dad. She seems sweet though.

Just misses having tv cameras following her around for us tv show, probably just trying to get another...

I'm pretty sure she does things for charity.

She does the bare minimum. She's rather an idiot who thinks she's 'down to earth'.

She is definitely lucky I agree. But there's a reason why people often post so much on social media, and usually it's to give the impression or maintain an image that everything in their life is perfect. More often than not there's something going wrong for them which they are trying to distract either others or themselves from. Looks can be deceiving.

I know next to nothing about her except her surname but perhaps she posts in IG because, despite her moneyed upbringing, she needs validation? I have no money to speak of but it doesn’t occur to me to put my life on SM because I don’t need validation🤷‍♀️

I didn't get the impression she had no friends - in her reality show there was a time where her husband was going away on business and one of her friends flew from Dubai or wherever just to keep her company.

Just remembered she has her own beauty range. I went through a patch of getting monthly beauty boxes and got one of her hair oils which was actually really good.

Don't envy her life but I do envy her wealth. Being born wealthy would have been a really good fit for me.

God what a horrible post! 😵

This lady fell 33,000 feet without an parachute and survived to walk again. I think she’s the luckiest.

Made me think of Holes by Passenger

I know a man with nothing in his hands, nothing but a rolling stone
He told me about when his house burnt down, he lost everything he owned
He lay asleep for six hole weeks, they were gonna ask his mother to choose
When he woke up with nothing he said I'll tell you something
When you've got nothing, you've got nothing to lose
Now I've got a hole in my pocket, a hole in my shirt, a whole lot of trouble, he said
But now the money's gone, life carries on and I miss it like a hole in the head

You so have trawled through her posts though, I spend way too much time on here and I don't remember anything about anyone. You might remember people you actually engage with but there's no way you'd remember all that about a random. You're just back tracking to try to avoid looking like an arsehole.

OP I think being comfortable is probably the most enviable position. Being super rich means you have to spend a lot of time watching your back IMO. People want to take what you have, the papers want to pull you down, you have to have security, it's not possible to live a normal life. Her family all seem to be a bit of a dysfunctional mess as well. I doubt her life is all it looks on insta.

I remember watching a TV programme about her life. In the basement of her home, she’d had a huge soft play area built for her daughter. But it was giving Poorest Little Rich Girl vibes watching this tiny tot play solo in this enormous kids’ paradise.

I think you can be a tad too rich.

You've posted this on a thread about Tamara Ecclestone.

I would love to be rich but I absolutely wouldn’t like her life. It’s kind of a waste to be honest..

She travels to exactly the same places and lives the same experiences on a loop. How incredible would it be to show your children the world? I love Disney but there is more world outside of that, Dubai and Switzerland rinse and repeat.

Her show seemed to alude to her having no friends if I remember correctly.

AIBU, I'm going in for surgery on Thurs, iv Friends who just turn up unannounced. Iv asked them not to do this it's ignored. Fast forward, iv 10 month old pup so asked only to visit after op if partner or older kids are home, I can't leave door unlocked incase someone opens it and pup runs out, he's a hound, I can't run after him, also when they come round I'm never out kitchen,coffees, drinks, snacks, sorting stuff for their young kids.

@plumcake2924

its all subjective

I have friends who would be mortified at the very thought of having two kids so to them tamara is not lucky in the slightest

If other people want to make the Ecclestones even richer by constantly looking at pictures of them and feeling jealous of them, that’s their prerogative but it seems like a waste of time and energy to me.

This sums up my attitude to those who follow influencers/socialites on social media! Better off living your own life, and finding your own happiness, because you won't find anything meaningful through looking at what a famous person is promoting this week.

There are many well-known women with all of that plus undoubtedly successful careers (e.g. Margot Robbie) if you want to be jealous. Why specifically Tamara (with questionable father and we really don't know what is going on behind the closed doors. Why does she need an IG anyway - she is not a public person?)?

Does acting all superior to other people online make you feel better about yourself, out of interest?

And her mum:
‘In December 2019, she put her Chelsea mansion up for sale for more than £100m after daughter Tamara's home in Kensington Palace Gardens was raided and jewels worth £50m were stolen.’

Wow!
’In 2002, at age 17, Ecclestone dated Jonathan Ketterman (who later changed his name to Derek Rose). The relationship ended acrimoniously, and they had no contact for the next 10 years.[6] In 2013, Ketterman was found guilty of attempting to blackmail her for $200,000 and sentenced to four years in prison.’
