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?

Agree @GunpowderGelatine

Do you think a lot of stuff is gifted to them? I noticed a sign on one of the food tables that said 'happy birthday Nelly from..' and it sounded like a company name who had maybe provided some of the food.

It must do - I noticed in the last series they applied for her school place but in a clip for the series she has a blazer, which likely means private school - I wonder if that's paid for by the school or ITV or them

Gunpowder I doubt that ITV would pay private school fees to be honest, they can probably afford the fees because of doing the show for ITV but ITV wouldn’t directly pay it.

I know this is horrible but I don’t like Nelly at all, she’s not cute, she’s not funny and I’d boycott my tv if she was to get her own show -as reported by the Daily Fail...Billie and Greg have created an annoying spoilt little brat, she’s narcissistic at age 4

I don't like the name Nelly! Sorry to anyone called Nelly

I really like Billie and Greg but I agree that Nelly is spoiled, I don’t think they knew how to deal with her (normal) tantrums when she was younger and now it’s too late. She will rule that household!

I've got the give Gaynor all due credit - she might be a bit 'extra' in some ways but she's an awesome grandmother!

I agree about Nelly, she's so precocious but without the virtue of being cute so it's just very very annoying 🙊

Agree about nelly. She’s just annoying, she isn’t even funny. And they encourage it?? The party looked cool but why get her so many presents??
Also Billie just keeps going on about the stag dos?
Sam is just too much. I am really intrigued how they all afford this lifestyle. I can’t stop watching even though I don’t know for sure if I like them!!
I have to say though, Sam and Billie both look amazing.

Whoever it was who said further up the thread that Sam isn't loaded, she has just been listed at no 25 in the top 30 richest celebs under 30 in the UK - she's worth 5.2 million, so I think she could afford a nanny if she wanted one. Totally agree that she's very irritating though.

Party was definitely too much
It was more fancy than some weddings I’ve been to
I was concerned about baby Paul sitting in the worktop - what if he tumbled off

Nelly isn't at private school. (I live in Brentwood)

when i bumped into greg (far be it for me to harp on about my accosting him in lakeside) he said that he was waiting to hear from the LA about the school for nelly (i.e. it was that date in april when everyone (i.e. us masses)) found out about schools. plus i know where the school is.

nelly was extremely shy when i met her. she's probably just being a loon for the cameras. i did lol when she said she was constipated (that was ages ago though).

party totally ott. i would have like to know what was in the party bags. hmmm.

I think Paul’s lack of interaction with Sam may be down to him having Asperger’s syndrome, it would certainly explain a lot and it’s a very common issue, especially in males.

I also think that Paul not wanting to marry her yet doesn’t necessarily mean that he’s not into her, it just means that he’s not ready right now, and in this day and age then marriage is incredibly old fashioned whether you have kids or not, anyway I don’t believe Sam wants to be married for the correct reasons, it’s probably more to do with her jealousy of Billie, after all she practically copies everything that Billie does, even to the point of taking a holiday at the same time as Billie and no doubt she ‘trapped’ Paul with the first pregnancy, I think it’s safe to say that she knew unprotected sex equalled babies!

‘Simple Sam’...

Oh and Paul’s ‘property developer/estate agent’ career is all over now seen as he’s a partner of an overpriced tatty fashion brand!...not to mention the bank rolling from Sam👏👏👏

My guilty pleasure! Sam is gorgeous bordering on drag queen. I love the name Nelly and I think she's very cute! I can't believe how young Baby Paul seems for his age. Why shouldn't a 2 year old be ok on a worktop? He's babied but should be safe. I can't believe Sam carries him on her hip to play football! Put him down!

Sam doesn't seem so interested in Rosie. Baby Paul is still no.1.

Imo its Paul that doesn’t seem interested in Rosie, not Sam!

I was reading New yesterday and there was an interview with Sam and she was saying how much of a hands on Dad Paul is but if the kids have a meltdown in public, then ‘he has to just walk away and I have to deal with it’ seems like Paul is only hands on when the children are well behaved!

It's not often I take a dislike to a child but I do not like Nelly at all. Shes turned into a spoilt little brat and I can see her causing huge problems as she gets older. Very irritating child.

I don’t like Nelly either and she’s not cute, Arthur on the other hand, is bloody gorgeous!!

Ooooo sams face and the jealousy seeping out of her during the trip to the bridal
Shop!

Billie going on and on about the "stay off social media" on the stag do was getting annoying, especially since she was posting quite a lot on her hen do. Fair enough she didn't want to be embarrassed but if the was Paul saying to Sam don't post photos people would be calling him names.

Have they actually set a date yet? I'm guessing the wedding will be either filmed or a OK exclusive.

I thought she was emphasising more 'stay off social media if it's bad' and I don't blame her in that respect. She knew it would get messy but I guess she just didn't want the world to see that. I hate the phrase 'social media' that everyone on TV uses now 🙄

stay of SM ha ha ha she has made a good living out of it

case of do as i say not as i do

Yeah I thought that too, there was so much on insta about billie’s hen. I guess they were all very insta-friendly photos and everyone looked good in them.
I do like billie though, she comes across as much more fun and nicer. Her and Greg also seem genuine with their ups and downs. funny when she said to him about his teeth!!
And she still made him food when he came back.

My pushchair days are nearly over (woo!) but I wouldn’t buy Sam’s range over an established brand. They didn’t look that nice, so bulky with unnecessary patterns.

I also saw this week that billie has designed a baby range for George at Asda. How lucky to get to do all these designing jobs.
