Vacant. Heaven help our world if Aliens somehow pick this up and think she represents humankind.

I’m watching, it’s very bizarre how normal she feels they live.

She’s a good mum though

Marzipanmodelling · 15/11/2017 22:02

I agree Clonda she seems a devoted mum and in that way she seems more down to earth but there's always a butler/chef/staff in the background and her daughter will always get her own way!

ClondawWarrior · 15/11/2017 22:05

Yes totally agree.

I wonder how down to earth and chilled she would be doing the laundry, cleaning, cooking etc whilst also having to walk to dogs in the rain and looking after Sophia.

Did like her approach to parenting though and wish I was a bit more like it! I’m always on an schedule I feel!

viques · 15/11/2017 22:08

I agree that she is a good mum, but a bit helicopters. I was uncomfortable with constantly asking Fifi are you happy, do you love it, etc etc, I think she needs validation in her own life and is using the child do do it. Also felt the niggling undermining of her husband was unpleasant.

I also think turning your indoor swimming pool/sauna into a private soft play area for a three year old is madness! how is Sophia going to learn to swim? They will have to move to a new mansion.

The soft play was indeed bonkers!

Our dd gets bored of them so we go once a month and rotate which ones so I imagine the same one every day means the novelty will soon wear off

Lillycat100 · 15/11/2017 23:04

Tamara daughter is being brought up to be selfish and entitled, it doesn’t matter how rich you are, being brought up with the right values and morals are important . When her daughter Sophie wanted the balloons from the other child the mother just took the balloons off the other little girl, and gave it to her daughter and sent her daughter inside alone so she can have the balloons all to herself despite fighting with the other child for them. The other little girl was treated unfairly.

tiffanysfanny · 16/11/2017 11:51

I love her for some reason. She always comes across nicely. I remover watching her show years ago when she was renovating the house they are in now. She came across well then too.

Loving this show. It’s got a different feel to other realty/housewife type. Very relaxed feel and still over the top.

DeloresVanTropp · 16/11/2017 15:52

I like Tamara. Perhaps it would be a good idea to give Fifi a sibling (for both their sake).

Maddiemademe · 16/11/2017 17:04

I thought her daughter was quite mean to her father (saying no when asked if she missed him) and Tamara almost seems to encourage that. I actually feel a bit sorry for him. She obviously has the money to do it but sometimes that sort of spending and attention will make for not a very nice person when Sophia is older.

I find it completely bizarre that they have 50 members of staff to run their house? I agree that I don't think she would be quite as relaxed if she has to run the household herself like most mothers. Love watching how the other half live though.

christmaspudding1 · 16/11/2017 20:35

didnt like it when Tamara was talking to photographer and Fifi butted in and TE instead of saying it was rude to butt in ignored photographer and let Fifi carry on

Dozyoldtwonk · 17/11/2017 20:03

Their normal is so far removed from most people; they’re kind of in their own bubble. I have to be honest though - if I had her money, I’d definitely have ‘help’ with a three year old on a 12-hour flight - kudos to her for doing that alone! She’s clearly a great mum, if a little over invested. Will be interesting to see how little Sophia grows up.

Textpectation · 17/11/2017 20:39

She seems to have separation anxiety. She's mad keen to exclude her DH.

tiffanysfanny · 17/11/2017 21:39

If you have watched her previous show, I can see why Tamara is the way she is with her Dd. I remember her talking about her own mum being very invested in their growing up. She did all the mummy things, picking up from school, play dates and the lot. She thought her mum was different to the other mums of similar wealth because she was always there. They had nannies but the mum still there.

papayasareyum · 17/11/2017 23:47

I think she’s brilliant. She’s loaded but she seems like a normal mum, albeit rich beyond most of our wildest dreams. I love the bond she has with her daughter. She seems really kind and genuine, very sweet person.

CrystalMcPistol · 18/11/2017 15:03

I'm sure she's very nice, sweet etc. but how I guffawed when she simpered that she had no help with Sophia. Yeah love, when you can afford to have 50 (!) full time household staff it does tend to make dedicating your every waking moment to one's child that bit easier.

She needs a hobby that doesn't involve her kid.

KitKat1985 · 19/11/2017 21:57

I've just watched the first episode. I thought Tamara came across as a nice person, but clearly overly spoiling her daughter Sophia and letting her do whatever she wanted at times, which made for uncomfortable viewing. I sensed a bit of tension between Tamara and Jay on a couple of occasions too, which I sensed probably stemmed from Tamara never wanting to leave Sophia / letting Sophia sleep in their bed etc, which has got to be stifling for them as a couple.

zoomer455 · 24/11/2017 21:06

Just watching. How many times has she said "we are normal/ down to earth" no you're not!!

JanetStWalker · 26/11/2017 05:53

The Ecclestone girls have terrible form for picking decent men, I do hope Jay is different from the rest.

Maddiemademe · 26/11/2017 07:38

I actually quite like Jay. I think he puts up with quite a lot of crap. His daughter shows him no real respect and Tamara just laughs at her rudeness to him.

She is a great mum in the sense that she dotes on Sophia with her time, but that also is having a very negative impact on her relationship with her husband. She also spoils her terribly (I can be guilty of this occasionally but obviously nowhere near the same scale) and almost allows her to rule the roost as such.

Parents should be a team but they both regularly say Sophia is the boss. That is incredibly unhealthy all round for all of them.

kennypppppppp · 26/11/2017 13:07

I was gob smacked at Sophia having a stylist who had out her clothes into "looks". For a three year old?!?!?

And jay saying that his life was pretty much the same before he met Tamara. So he was living in a jillion pound house and being chauffeured in a Matt black rolls Royce???? Course he was.

Obviously the programme is totally essential viewing to me though!!!!

hattiesmumm · 14/12/2017 12:24

Is anyone else watching this? I feel so sorry for the Dad.

Christmasaurus · 14/12/2017 20:51

Just watching the latest episode now. I do feel sorry for him too, and she is unhealthily obsessed with her daughter (and that’s not because of the breastfeeding or the co sleeping, just the whole attitude she is towards her)

Christmasaurus · 14/12/2017 20:53

*has

Mummylum · 15/12/2017 11:09

I like the programme. I love my children to the stars. But she is well over the top. I know money is no object but that little girl is gonna grow up to be destroyed in life. She needs boundaries and being mean to her daddy and haveit encouraged off tamera is not good at all. My boys love us both the same. Im the main care giver cause my hubby works hard. I breastfed them all and have a fantastic bond. But they all had a bed to sleep in I truly believe we all need that space from each other. There a lovely family but she really needs to get a grip. She was nearly I tears cause fifi wanted to stay upstairs while she did an interview. 🤔🤔🤔 I understand the maternal pull but yikes she's 3 still sleeping in bed an breastfed . Jay would of lefther ages ago in a normal salary home. It's craziness . She Is a wonderful mum but I feel sorry for Jay x

ijustwannadance · 15/12/2017 11:16

She isn't doing her DD any favours though. Although the child will never live in the real world so hey ho.
