To be jealous of holly willoughby

She looks good, has a great career with plenty of holidays, from the face of it has a fantastic husband and marriage. And most importantly she comes across like she is a fantastic mother. So patient and calm. Im jealous but admire her too in equal measures. AIBU??????

Why do you 'lol'

Are you all particularly hard of reading? You sound dreadful but crack on. Don't let the old 'jealous' stuff stop you

After all, you'd say all this to another woman's face wouldn't you? Would just keep it to an anonymous bitching session

BatFaceGal · 28/01/2018 22:40

*wouldnt

BelfortGabbz · 28/01/2018 22:41

Good luck to her I say.
Hope she gets paid exactly the same as Philip too!

Sparklingbrook · 28/01/2018 22:42

'hard of reading' Grin YY everyone is dreadful. All celebrities must be admired and loved, obviously.

Sallystyle · 28/01/2018 22:45

No, not hard of reading.

I just disagree with the fact that I and others are jealous of Holly because of her looks and wealth.

My dislike of her is simply down to her personality. The part I have seen anyway.

Antigonads · 28/01/2018 22:46

The last thread on HW insinuated she did coke.

And that all was not well on the home front.

I have no opinion as I don't watch anything she is in.

BelleandBeast · 28/01/2018 22:46

How is she a more fantastic mother, she's a working mother like many of us, with tons more help. We're all fantastic, even more so if we don't have the tons of help. I''m bloody brilliant me. Grin

Sallystyle · 28/01/2018 22:48

All celebrities must be admired and loved, obviously.

Even Keith Lemmon? 😮

There have been many threads about male celebs. No one comes on to tell us we are dreadful and jealous if we say we don't like them.

Jamie Oliver gets a lot of hate on here. Perhaps we are jealous of his looks and wealth too.

Sparklingbrook · 28/01/2018 22:50

Yes even Keith Lemon-every celebrity, even Nick Knowles, and Vernon Kay. They are all wonderful, every last one of them.

Jamie Oliver is a fantastic chef and very very good looking.

Love her wardrobe but anyone would look good with professional lighting wardrobe stylist - bet there are days she feels and looks shit she has to live up to her own hype don’t forget

BatFaceGal · 28/01/2018 22:53

Oh I apply similar views to slagging off Jamie Oliver at al . Unless you personally know him

You just sound so bitter and petty. And err jealous. Because that's the root of it really despite all the protestations

ameli · 28/01/2018 22:55

Who.

Sparklingbrook · 28/01/2018 22:57

So I am not allowed to say anything about celebrities but you can call me dense and a total bitch BatFaceGal. Bit unfair-you don't know me after all.

BatFaceGal · 28/01/2018 22:59

Hasn't hurt your feelings has it? Fair game surely according to this thread

Sallystyle · 28/01/2018 23:00

We certainly don't need the patriarchy bringing women down do we? Not with you sad bunch ready to step up and do it

Don't worry, we do it to men too.

I don't think Holly will be too insulted that I think she is smug and comes across as not very genuine.

If it was jealousy then surely I would also not like Emma Willis and many other celebs? Funny how my apparent jealousy is only over one certain famous woman, isn't it?

She was an awful bully at school

Seriously? Did you go to school with her?

ameli · 28/01/2018 23:01

She had on this really nice leather skirt and baby pink top looking for same outfit . I think rather than feel jel I felt bit inspired to get similar outfit . When you see something you admire or wish you could have why not work on yourself - not just talking about the skitrt and top lol

Sparklingbrook · 28/01/2018 23:01

I am cut to the core.Sad

Whiterabbitears · 28/01/2018 23:02

I bet she doesn't see much of her children, she's always on T.V so probably spends a lot of time working. For some people the sacrifice would be worth it, but its not for me personally.

Sallystyle · 28/01/2018 23:02

Oh I apply similar views to slagging off Jamie Oliver at al . Unless you personally know him

Oh that's great. Celebs can put themselves in the limelight, earn money by being on every TV show they can get their hands on but I am not allowed to voice a negative opinion about any of them?

I bow down to your superiority.

ameli · 28/01/2018 23:03

What if I offered you her salary and career . You’d take it right .

Emilybrontescorsett · 28/01/2018 23:04

I've always found her a bit vacuous.

Whenever I've seen her interview someone and thought about questions I'd like answering, she never, ever asks them. Instead she nods and fawns over them.

I think she has been successful due to her looks, nothing wrong with that but she isn't my cup of tea.
I much preferred Fern Britton.

badcopgoodcop · 28/01/2018 23:05

I agree! She's like the perfect woman with the perfect life. I've always wished we were friends (although I'd probably be too jealous of her for it to ever work!) Grin

Sallystyle · 28/01/2018 23:05

Her career? No, I wouldn't want it.

Her money? Hell yeah.

What has that got to do with not liking her?

If you offered me Donald Trump's money I would want it.
