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.

Who’s the most famous person your sibling has ever met?
What is the most out of touch thing you’ve ever heard them say?

Edited

I don’t really know how you measure fame, they’ve met David Beckham, Simon Cowell, Sharon Osbourne? I can’t remember them ever meeting someone I would consider more globally famous than that

(edited to answer the second question)

They have refused to stay in certain places, get in certain cars or wear certain things

Disappointing

Digerydont · 15/08/2026 19:56

They have got kids, so probably not a gay man?

When out with your sibling, have you seen people sexually harass them?

Yes, many times.

Are you full siblings?

LivelyGreyShark · 15/08/2026 19:58

How do the press portray your sibling? Is it accurate, positive, negative or does it annoy you? Is there anything you can tell us about your sibling that the public would be surprised to know.

Why are so many convinced that the celebrity is Katie Price? The age gap between Katie and Sophie is bigger than the sound of the gap between OP and their sibling. Plus the OP says their sibling is wealthy, and Katie Price is bankrupt (although to be fair you wouldn't know that from the way she carries on!)

Yes, many times.

Why do you think strangers sexually harrass them?

I want to a wedding once when one of the guests was a famous actress recently on telly, Hannah Gordon. She was there because the groom was props manager on the series and was in.

The wedding evening event was definitely more about Hannah Gordon than the bride and the marriage didn't last.

Has your sibling been involved in any similar situations?

Yes and they’ve been excluded from or chose not to attend friends events to avoid this.

Once one person asks for a photo everyone seems to decide they want one too even without needing to like or be interested in them.

I think because the OP said their sibling wasn't famous through music or acting, to be fair it could just as easily be Kate Moss or a celebrity chef or sportsperson.

Katie price has 2 siblings hmmm

I think you or he/they need better friends.

I certainly don't think it's Pricey. People aren't clamouring to have their picture taken with her or be her friend, she's more a liability than anything.

Actually I think she has three, two half siblings on her mothers side and one on her fathers.

Is it difficult with family celebrations? Like if it’s your mum’s birthday and you get her something normal and your sibling can afford something massive? Or do you all agree a budget?

Do they end up staying at home a lot as a result of fame?

Not really, they don’t necessarily go extravagant but if they do then it’s just nice for mum or whoever.

Are you saying that poor old Robson can’t sing or act? 🤔

Poor Robson 😂😂😂

quaintireneofrye · 15/08/2026 20:06

It sounds like someone who is both vulnerable and courting attention, though.

Digerydont · 15/08/2026 20:06

Are you Jeremy Corbyn's brother, the COVID-19 denier?

Realworld10 · 15/08/2026 20:08

Some clue to as what sort of celebrity they are would make it clearer as to whether we would consider them renowned famous.

LikeASoulWithoutAMind · 15/08/2026 20:13

Does your sibling's fame/wealth affect the family dynamic (eg create a power imbalance) and if so what's the impact of that on you all?

The OP has said their sibling is famous for being 'sexy' and having a fanbase built on that.

That’s not what they said. They’ve been sexually admired, like many good looking celebrities

Les Dennis then.

Sashimiandhisthunderpaws · 15/08/2026 20:17

Was fame/fortune/power/inlfuence the driver for their chosen career? Or was it something they had a passion for/another objective that motivated them and fame was a byproduct?
