I won’t be saying who they are.

I recently spoke to a friend about it who
had lots of questions which lead to an interesting conversation, things I’d never said or thought about before.

When I was younger I used to feel incredibly jealous of them and had a very short and unsuccessful attempt at creating my own fame.

Now I’m older with my own dc and have seen the effects up close I definitely think the negatives out way the positives and it’s not something I would ever want for my children.

What level of celebrity and through what medium?

ToKittyornottoKitty · Yesterday 17:24

When you say ‘celebrity’ are they an a list celebrity or someone like Stacey Solomon level?

Ask Me Anything.

Does your sibling's fame make it difficult to meet up in public? I know I would find it tough going to be constantly interrupted by fans or to feel that everything we did was under scrutiny and might end up in the tabloids.

Edited

We are now, we haven’t always been.

They probably did and we’ve defiantly spoken about it since.

Are they rich? Do they give you money?

raspberryrisotto · Yesterday 17:28

Have you met any of their celebrity friends and do they keep in contact with their local, childhood friends?

Blogswife · Yesterday 17:30

Are they a celebrity because they have a particular talent ( acting, singing, dancing ?) or are they c list reality show celeb ?
Do you get to meet her celeb friends and was she treated differently by your parents ( leading to the jealousy perhaps ?)

What do you see as the downsides?

I would say the main ones are probably
Lack of privacy,
Harassment,
Constant pressure and criticism,
The press,
Fake friends and hanger ons,

How has it affected your siblings DC?

We both do but theirs are older. Their children haven’t had a normal childhood, structure and comfort are very important to me as parent.

They are not A list, the vast majorly of the uk will recognise and know who they are but not worldwide.

You mean this is Kylie? 😂

corlan · Yesterday 17:38

Two questions if that's allowed:-
Do you ever tell new people that you meet who your sister is?
Does your sister ever do interviews and you read them and feel that she's misrepresented her upbringing?

Is it Dean Gaffney?
