Sam & Billie - The Mummy Diaries

[DBoo]

Omg Gaynor is an MNetter. Hello Gaynor 😁.

Just watching this now. First of all makes me mega broody!!! Secondly I really like Billie and Gregg, seem really down to earth and I know others probably won't agree but I quite like big Paul and think he's just not up for the fame thing.

Anyone else watching?

Btw very small claim to fame but the other day I requested to follow Sam on IG & she later did her story and one of her posts was her notifications and she had screenshot a picture of it and circled her friends name and comment and there was my name at the top saying I had requested to follow her

Money & fame have obviously gone to Sams head causing her to change, these things happen all the time but it’s the change with her family I find odd, it’s like her & her mother aren’t mother & daughter iyswim?

I'm getting tired of hearing Sam say "as a Mum of 2" as if she's the only mother in the world with 2 kids!

I'm getting tired of hearing Sam say "as a Mum of 2" as if she's the only mother in the world with 2 kids!

Lol ditto with 'as a family of four' and 'I'm breastfeeding'!

Course she got pregnant with Rosie on purpose but it is also Paul's responsibility if he didn't want another child !

This!

And TBF A LOT of people say you can't get pregnant when BF, and it really makes sense as your period doesn't come back. My MW told me 'breastfeeding is the best contraception going'

As much as she's annoyed me this series I think it's deeply unfair to speculate on her whole relationship, you can't get the measure of it from a few clips!

I'm a bit disappointed we didn't see the probably-not-a-proposal this week. I'm trying to think what else she could be asking him though!

And TBF to Sam the crews likely insisted she give them a full tour of the hotel room, they're not going to stay in a hotel like that and the TV show not do a few minutes of filming (I imagine that they snagged a freebie from hotel too and it was in their contract to show it off). I admit if someone said "you can stay in this amazing suite for free you just have to do a smug piece to camera" I'd bite their hand off

CherryChasingDotMuncher maybe it said “Will you....hurry the fuck up and propose so I can get my magazine deal please?”!

Will any of you be watching fearne mcCanns programme? I'm quite looking forward to it

There are so many programmes about people having babies at the moment!!

I think Sam is trying to appear as though everything is perfect but the reality of two small kids is that they have tantrums, it's stressful and she maybe needs to just be a bit more honest. That's what I like about Billie she's very real. When Nelly was having tantrums Billie doesn't care that the cameras are there she accepts it's what young kids do and she deals with it the same as any mum would. Sam seems a bit more concerned with how it appears to others. I get the impression they are struggling to adjust to baby Paul becoming a toddler and then on top they have a newborn!!

I'm in the same boat as Sam with a newborn and a young toddler and it can be trying at times. I feel sorry for her having cameras follow her round when she is tired and stressed but I guess that's her choice.

Totally agree Paul is coming across a lot better this time and you really can't fault him as a father - he is so in love with his kids and puts them first and seems like a real family man.

I think it's lovely how close Billie and her mum are.

I’m deffo going to watch Fearne McCanns show and I did last year too, she’s real too and in her clip she said ‘I just winged it, doesn’t everybody’ (with regards to being a mother) and I thought I can just imagine Sam saying that not

I thought the shoe buying anecdote was hilarious!
As for the wasted food, the hotel provided too much, the whole point of staying there is to get an experience of wealth and excess.
I don't know about Ferne's new programme, I enjoyed the last one but as a single mother myself, found it really offensive how she had a media ban on her being referred to as a single mother on tv and interviews, as she doesn't want to be associated with that label. I'm hoping it was just a bit of a brain fart moment as I did really like her.

Does anyone know what Gregg's job is?

I read Greg was a stockbroker and a businessman

Greg is apparently a businessman and a 'ticket scout', whatever that means!

Mmmn another one whose job is a bit iffy it seems...

Billie, Greg and Nellie come across so much better.. it’s a far better show with them. And her son (can’t remember his name?) is Gorgeous!

The suites at the hotel in Dubai are on all the real housewives type programmes (guilty pleasure ) and I would think are free to promote the hotel. Just like all the "papped" shots of celebs in Dubai are officially sanctioned to promote it as a luxury destination.

Marking place as it’s disappeared from threads im on.
Last episode next week!

If this is true then it's a bit mean to propose on camera, Paul looked like a rabbit caught in headlights on the clip.

Anyone proposing to anyone in public is downright mean and abusive imo.
He can't say no because not only are they in public but it'll be broadcast to the whole of the UK! What the hell was she thinking doing that. Herself as usual

I think that Paul has maybe had enough of Sam’s antics and that he may well just end up staying with her for the kids.

Billies instagram shows her, Sam & their mum going wedding dress shopping for Billies dress and we all know how much Sam copies Billie so she’ll wanna get in there straight after

Whilst I don't know this for a fact, I believe slebs are paid to promote Dubai, and particularly that hotel/resort.
I used to watch the Peter Andre shows and it was the same.
(Sorry, please don't kill me!)

I don’t fancy Dubai as a holiday destination whatsoever

BrilloHair I think you're right! An Australian instamum that I follow has recently had a free Dubai trip to that hotel

Am i imagining this or was it another way arpund but wasnt there an ep where billie went and tried dresses on and so did sam?

I still dont think she proposes. Probs asks either a)to move back to essex or b) for another baby
