I wouldn't employ a nanny who hadn't sailed around the world in a yacht, tbh.

noddyholder · 15/07/2011 08:01

She has always had an inflated sense of herself even when she was in brookside

MaxSchreck · 15/07/2011 08:04

She will always be known primarily, for who she is dating.

Poor lamb.

Geordieminx · 15/07/2011 08:04

She has shit taste in men....i wouldnt touch Ifans or Thewlis with someone else's . They both look like they need s good wash.

noddyholder · 15/07/2011 08:05

Oh I like Rhys Ifans!

SharonGless · 15/07/2011 08:08

Am surprised she only has two nannies tbh. Why not have one for every day of the week

RoundOrangeHead · 15/07/2011 08:31

Why is she so disliked?

I dislike her intensely btw, she's in the same category as Amanda Holden which would be the ultimate insult to her

VivaLeBeaver · 15/07/2011 08:48

I don't get this.

Shock, horror - working single mum has a nanny. Hardly a story is it?

Yes technically there's 2 nannies but they're both part time so that equals one.

PuppyMonkey · 15/07/2011 08:53

I think she's all right.

I like northern accents.

Northernlurker · 15/07/2011 08:54

Viva - I think there's just something basically so anoying about her. Something built in to her dna which tempts you to give her a good shake and order her to look beyond her own little sphere. It may well be very unfair of me but she's always struck me as breath-takingly self centred. I'm unimpressed by women who declare that their dc is 'fine' with a split as well. Yes they may well be - but speaking for your child on such a personal subject is a bit creepy.

What a nasty article.

"TV presenter Kirstie Allsopp recently told how she could manage her hectic life only with the help of a nanny, cleaner and personal assistant.

The star is married to property developer Ben Andersen with whom she has sons Bay, four, and Oscar, two, and the couple have joint custody of his sons Hal, ten, and Orion, seven, from a previous marriage."

Surely just as accurate to say that her husband only manages his hectic life with the help of a nanny, cleaner and personal assistant (as I bet he has a PA too). After all, it's his house and his children too (in fact more of the children are his than are hers).

And two part-time nannies equals one nanny, surely? Which is not exactly a radical headline-making childcare solution.

katkitya · 16/07/2011 09:55

What does Anna actually DO though? Appart from Brookside, I wouldn't know her.

PirateDinosaur · 16/07/2011 11:13

Mostly US TV stuff, I think.

lottiejenkins · 18/07/2011 14:40

Whenever i see her or read about her i always remember someone on here saying that they knew someone who had slept with her and that she had a "smelly fanjo!!" {boaaaaaaaaaaak!!}

CQrrrneee · 18/07/2011 14:45

I recall that she was spotted by a MNER when she was snogging RI while she was still married to DT. trollop

Pin0t · 18/07/2011 19:37

at links being your nemesis OP Wink

clivesummer · 18/07/2011 19:45

my best friend has just finished working on a tv thing she's in, and can confirm Friel is indeed a massive twat!

dustyhousewithdustypeople · 18/07/2011 19:46

What wrong with her having a nanny? She doesn't have to stop working because she's got a child.

Pin0t · 18/07/2011 19:49

It's not about having a nanny, dusty. Nooooo.
