AIBU to feel sorry for Harper? If BB has an issue with his parents it shouldn’t mean that he also stops talking to his siblings. It’s equally as sad if the parents did choreographed the letter/visit.

I’ve always thought kidnap for ransom has gone out of fashion but maybe it happens and the payments are made with no publicity

if a Beckham were kidnapped I’d imagine VD would make sure it’s all over the news!!

"Brooklyn sells his family out"

It's just an ad!

I’m starting to love Brooklyn. His parents are so narcissistic and toxic. Using Haroer in a strange nightie is just weird.

‘Harper in a strange nightie’ really made me laugh.

And I made a typo. I’m baffled by the strange nightie look. It’s constant and odd. She doesn’t go to school and they dress her.

I think she can choose what she wears. It just has to be from VBs shop.

She looked a gust of wind away from a nip slip. Hopefully the dress was well stuck down with tape at the top.

I’m now getting strange nightie type adverts on this thread. Maybe this would have been more age appropriate 😆

Can I ask, what does ‘flying monkeys’ mean in this context? And what is meant by girlfriends on the payroll? Are they not actual couples?

This post has an image that explains flying monkeys

as for the girlfriends - I’m sure they are genuine but they benefit from the relationship and are effectively paid to toe the line

Others sent to get the messages in this case the parents want and they and convince them they are wrong.

Payroll girlfriends. Well exactly that. Girlfriends under the control of v&b money to toe the line and be the perfect girlfriends.

Some have also speculated that one of them may or may not of been seen to by David himself at one point and more of a career to that particular son rather than a girlfriend.

No they choose what she wears. She has no choice for a teen. And it’s always VB’s weird nightie dresses.

Iirc flying monkeys is a reference to wizard of oz. The witch sent the flying monkeys to get Dorothy.

Wasn’t she also spotted wearing a dress her mum did a day or two before.

Flattering for her mum I guess. Not so sure at 14 I wanted to be fitting into the clothes my mum wore tbh.

I was joking because there isn’t a lot of choice!

I also feel VB doesn’t want to be upstaged - I don’t think the colour was great choice for her for example

In psychology, a flying monkey is someone manipulated by a narcissist to do their "dirty work". Borrowed from The Wizard of Oz (where the Wicked Witch's minions do her bidding without question), these individuals act as enforcers, spies, or messengers to harass and manipulate a target on the abuser's behalf

Sorry I was scrolling and typing. VB looks extremely poorly. It’s all so sad.

Exactly this. Put her developing boobs away. No one needs to see them. If it wasn’t her parents dressing her like this, could you imagine any fashion house or film studio or pop promoter getting away with parading a 14 year old in front of the press dressed like that? The whole lolita thing going on. Full face of make up. Stilettos. It’s sickening.

She wasn’t wearing stilettos tbf

I’d say these count as stiletto heeled mules.

Agree totally inappropriate for a 14 year ols child ! Can VB only design satin nighties sooo boring

They’re kitten heels aren’t they? My dd is wearing lower kitten heels that are a little less ornate to her end of year party.

its the dress really. But she must have felt comfortable because she did take the cardi off

it’s just uncomfortable seeing her paraded around

@BeardySchnauzer they are higher than kitten heels. If you look at them next to VB’s stilettos they are almost as high.

They are Aquazurra Tequila Mule retailing at $1285.

I’m not sure they are that high but the style is a bit grown up.

the whole outfit is off though - particularly compared to what her mother is wearing. It’s all so weird.

i guess it’s like the photos from their holidays (which were v staged) - lots of comments on what harper was wearing

i find this current obsession with girls quite disturbing tbh - Venezuela fury is another
