MN heresy i know to give link. Tim to propose 'very soon'. Aww I cannot wait for the mother of all bridezillas.

FrayedHem · 14/07/2016 22:56

I see Tim is back active on his twitter but I couldn't bear to click the link to the video of himself, however worthy the cause.

You are all terrible! Thanks to you lot, I have spent the last 2 days sucked into the DM SBoS and Blind Gossip. I even created a Tumbr and Reddit account FGS!

My brain hurts. Apparently no celeb relationships are real, and those that appear that way are riddled with infidelity. Love children are the norm and Giada Di Laurentiiis (!) is very very, um, horny. I did not need to know this!

Never have I been so glad to be a pleb.

WaverleyOwl · 14/07/2016 23:06

Also, I am > < this close to messaging my brothers ex (I'm on very friendly terms with). She is an ex- Hollywood celeb reporter who has tons of connections and happy to spill the goss.

I just feel a bit dirty asking for gossip. Is there any way I could swing it that it's for the public good?

whyistherumgone · 14/07/2016 23:19

Waverley don't tease us with possible salacious details! It is in the public interest honest, well MN interest at the very least...

FrayedHem · 14/07/2016 23:37

WaverlyOwl With the internet going Sleb scandal crazy you are shocked at the amount of your friends who have got into the dark world of Blind Gossip etc. You are obviously confused how such sites exist, and just want to know the truth for the sake of your friends. Purely Selfless Act.

LadyCassandra · 15/07/2016 05:06

Oh my! I pack for ever a few days and everything happens!
I haven't even been able to monitor the Aus TV news because we sold our sofa and the kids beds, so they are on the floor on their mattresses all the time watching fucking Cartoon Network! This was an attempt to motivate us into packing!
I daren't go down the BG route, we might never move.....!

JanTheJam · 15/07/2016 05:32

waverly get on with it love.

I don't know if I agree that TS is aspie. I think she's a very driven, very smart woman with a low tolerance for bullshit. I actually think more young women could take a leaf out of her book in not settling for being treated poorly in relationships and friendships.

Maybe I'm just being sucked into the PR though.

TheAntiBoop · 15/07/2016 08:13

The story from when she was 11 reads so true!!

JanTheJam · 15/07/2016 12:45

Good old Karl S defends Taylor here

For the non Aussie contingent Karl S is the other famous TV Karl (other famous Karl being Dr Karl of neighbour Obvs).

SlowJinn · 15/07/2016 12:58

Oh I am so glad this thread is still going strong. Work is shit, horrible things are happening in the world and my daughter is poorly - BUT TaylorSwift and Tim are still a thing. Woohoo!!

Love the fact Tim calls her by her full name. Like we wouldn't know who he meant.

Also loving Calvin's twitterings about their songwriting and stuff. Proper cheered me up, so it has.

Peakyblinder · 15/07/2016 13:10

'He’s so romantic, classic and chivalrous, and he’s doing everything right " said an insider

Grin Grin

whyistherumgone · 15/07/2016 14:20

I need this thread to continue with speedy updates, it's my escape from the world and right now, escape is so necessary.

Love that Tim is described as classic. I bet that's the look he's been going for in his quilted jacket and grey suedes - probably mutters it under his breath when he admires himself in the mirror so classic while nodding at himself approvingly.

Freshprincess · 15/07/2016 15:06

Calvin is FINE He's Ross from Friends level fine.

TheAntiBoop · 15/07/2016 16:22

In the photos I've seen of Taylor and Calvin she definitely looks more into him

SlowJinn · 15/07/2016 16:40

Who dumped who in the Calvin/TayTay split? Had Tay already met Tim and decided his classic chivalry was more to her liking than Calvin's rugged Scottish looks? Or had Calvin had enough of being Taylor Swift's boyfriend and wanted out? Either way I bet Harry Styles is breathing a massive sigh of relief that his fauxmance with her was shortlived and a long time ago.

TheAntiBoop · 15/07/2016 16:42

It was said to be mutual

Then she started dating Tim and everyone raised their eyebrows and assumed there had been an overlap

Then her 'friends' came out with this nonsense about her dumping him for dissing her.

What the truth is is anyone's guess!!

Donatellalymanmoss · 15/07/2016 16:55

It probably was mutual, pure speculation but I think they disagreed on how open to be about their relationship. She probably does like Tim, but there is definitely an element of throwing it in her ex-boyfriend's because she didn't really want it to end.

Really her behaviour is just like an incredibly over the top version of making sure you look totally amazing and really over your ex-boyfriend when you know he's going to be out in the same place as you.

Tanaqui · 15/07/2016 16:56

Did anyone else not like her fringe in yesterday's shopping pics? Too princess di!

Donatellalymanmoss · 15/07/2016 17:08

I saw this on blindgossip blindgossip.com/?p=79752#more-79752

It's about a singer who is going to write a love song pretending it's about a man who is no longer in her life when really it's about her girlfriend, so I just assumed it was meant to be about Taylor and all the bearding rumours and was all ready for a bit of eyerolling, but all the comments are saying Celine Dion Shock

I know we're not allowed to talk about these things but I had never even heard a sniff of that kind of rumour about her before!!

SlowJinn · 15/07/2016 17:26

Donatellalymanmoss get off Blind Gossip and do some work.

I never heard that about Celine Dion before either. But then again I know very little about the woman apart from the fact she was married to a much older chap and had problems getting pregnant.

TheAntiBoop · 15/07/2016 17:36

I could have done with a squad with me today as a grown woman shoved my son. I totally misunderstood him and thought it was her toddler.

If I had had my squad she would so not be going near children again!!

So celine - maybe she developed a relationship with a woman in the later years while she was caring for her husband.

FrayedHem · 15/07/2016 19:11

That's awful TheAntiBoop. Is this a woman you're likely to see again? I hope your son is ok.

I've been trying to get my TayTo fix but it's been a RL day. I did like the SBoS report on the radio interviewer trying to flirt with Tim and his formal English style response. Is Tay-Tay is going to be amused by the flirt? She's probably realised she has made Tim a very unsexy man because of The Vest and that won't be to her liking. So she may not attempt a career assassination on the journo. Yet.

And a member of the Squad, Martha Hunt, saying Tim has been approved and TayTo "are happy and free together". Is that the equivalent of Martha paying her annual fee membership?

TheAntiBoop · 15/07/2016 19:17

No - luckily for her!!

Yes it is very odd the way they all come out in force when she needs some positive pr

Donatellalymanmoss · 15/07/2016 19:24

Well for some reason TayTay seems to have lost her voice she has to get someone else to speak up for her.

Apparently they'll be engaged by the Emmys and that will be their first public outing as a betrothed couple.
