I'd never heard of a beard till I joined mumsnet, and find it all quite amusing, and rather incredulous.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beard_(female_companion)

Is it all true, do GC and TC employ beards?

Think you could add SC to GC and TC.

We'll never know for sure though - unless someone sells them out.

TheRhubarb · 12/07/2011 17:01

Who cares?

oohlaalaa · 12/07/2011 17:01

oooh yes, SC is the one I would place a £50 bet on.

If true, I just find it amazing, how we are all manipulated, and whats in it for Kate H. Its probably just slanderous gossip.

My MIL. I am absolutely convinced of it.

FreudianSlipper · 12/07/2011 17:12

i worked out George Clooney, who are the others

and no i am not a beard

midoriway · 12/07/2011 17:13

And one of my SILs, but I don't think she is fully aware of her place in the whole family machine.

FreudianSlipper · 12/07/2011 17:14

thinking about it i think i have been an unwilling beard

he was a very strange confused guy

oohlaalaa · 12/07/2011 17:15

midoriway You have a beard SIL, I am intrigued?

OP posts:
midoriway · 12/07/2011 17:15

ooohlala, SC? Do you mean the SC who is besties with RB? surely not. I can't see that. You know, even though they go for long drives in the country together.

Northernlurker · 12/07/2011 17:15

There are always these rumours aren't there? Tom Cruise, George Clooney, Will Smith, John Travolta, Simon Cowell - always the rumours no matter how many women they're with, how many dcs they have, how 'acceptable' being gay becomes and thus the incentive to be deceptive declines....
I'm not convinced by any of it - nor do I care tbh.

manticlimactic · 12/07/2011 17:15

Who's JT?

oohlaalaa · 12/07/2011 17:16

I've never got to be a beard. Sorry you were tricked into being a beard FreudianSlipper.

Must learn to read all posts!

manticlimactic · 12/07/2011 17:16

I've never been a beard but I have been a fag hag. Grin

3littlebadgers · 12/07/2011 17:17

TC is for sure. I look after is stylists' 12 year old daughter for a summer in 2001. I just can't get over how well protected a secret it is esp. seeming though I have told everyone I know Wink
