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?

[Sassenach85]

Oh I don't remember that! Thing is, Billie is an attractive young mum who has already lost a tonne of unnecessary weight for her wedding. And still the bloody leg bend!! What message is she sending? Really pisses me off

[Tubbykins]

I just can't believe how different they look versus only a few years ago.

[OneInAMillionYou]

The faces are completely different, Sam especially appears to have had a lot of work on her face. Billie I think is naturally very pretty and has that great jaw line.

Now all the honeymoon photos are appearing on Instagram. Greg just seems to be the talking prop for images of Billie 'living her best life' 😂

[MaHeidsGouping]

That photo is nothing like them, I can't even tell who is who! I have never watched TOWIE or anything else they have been in so what I see on Mummy Diaries is all I know about them.

@OneInAMillionYou I think you can see Sam has had work done to her face when she has no make-up on especially 😬

[OneInAMillionYou]

Such a shame. Not even 30 yet and already having work done. Wonder what they will look like at 50?

[MiniCooperLover]

That honestly doesn't even look like them 😳

[MaHeidsGouping]

Scrolling through my IG and saw these 2 pics in a row. I feel Sam tries to steal Billies limelight. Sam flew off to the Maldives for Xmas before the wedding then she stays on while Billie also stays on for the honeymoon...and then I see these pics, only Sam hasn't got a doting husband so little Paul will do

[Sassenach85]

I was just thinking that today!! Sam said something on her post like "our special place"...... no it was Billie and greggs special place for years as far as I know. Sams been once! Billie and Gregg post pics on bikes and what do you know, there's Sam on one

[MaHeidsGouping]

Yip I noticed the bikes too, I wasn't sure if that was just a standard way to get around on holiday.

[PandaSky]

I can't remember, who is older?

[popcorndiva]

Billie is the eldest by a year I think.

[nowifi]

They look soo different in that photo, I love it

Definitely so much competition between them, think it is more Sam trying to compete with Billie!

Did anyone see tonight's ep? I haven't seen but looks like Sam kicks off makes a change from her being boring

[MiniCooperLover]

To be fair if you go all that way for a wedding then you are going to stay nearby fo have a bit more holiday, especially when there's so many islands to choose from. Sam is definitely competitive though and the fact Billie is now married should scare Paul even more than I think he already is 😂

[Okokokok]

Sam was always the most famous, then Billie took over a bit when the mummy diaries came out. I do like Billie and Greg a lot more than Sam and Paul though, they are just so much more normal how they bicker etc. I think Sam is so guarded how she comes across. She also annoys me how everything is a big deal, like they get Paul a bed and it has to be a big £3500 that requires a man to come build it, all this drama about Paul going to nursery etc. I find her so irritating!
Oh God, and Nellie! Such a spoiled little girl!

[Sassenach85]

Something about big paul makes me feel weird. I know he loves his kids but he's almost panic stricken that they might grow and have time away from him. He is able to show this obsessive love for his kids but not his gf. I don't really know what I'm saying except I think it's really unhealthy how he acts about Paul starting nursery and Sam just dances around him!

[Okokokok]

Sassenach85 I agree! It is like he doesn't want Paul to go into his own bed and him actually share a bed with his partner. She does seem to tiptoe round him. I get the impression he is a sulker/quite moody so she is careful what she says on camera as she doesn't want that side of him to show.

[Sassenach85]

She's trying so so hard to be the perfect family and at every opportunity he says things to show he doesn't want her it's quite sad. She's trying to have a healthy attitude to little paul getting some independence and then getting some couple time back but he's not interested. I think he said she can have the big bed then and he will go and sleep in little Paul's bunk bed!! it's so weird..... I find him uncomfortable to watch. In fact I find them as a couple uncomfortable to watch now.

[alooha]

I agree it is quite hard to watch how they communicate and act around each other. Sam is giving all of her energy and getting nothing in return (apart from the kids). She is desperately trying to maintain the image of a perfect family, perfect life, perfect house etc and I think she is absolutely terrified to let it all go when Billie has the lovely family set up. I think Billie must be the older sister who did everything first as Sam is still in her shadow and trying her best to do as good or better as her elder sister. Quite sad that she feels the need to copy and imitate her sister just to feel like she is accomplishing something, I think a lifetime of being compared must have made her extremely insecure. I really do feel quite sad for her. Imagine being in that relationship and having to spend all of your time proving to the world you are happy, she must be emotionally and mentally exhausted.

[Sassenach85]

You have a point. And I see Billie and her mum are more close than Sam is and that's probably been a long term thing. Feel a bit bad for her now! Her neediness is annoying but it's coming from somewhere and that's a shame.

[CallMeOnMyCell]

I feel sorry for Sam too but I think her relationship with Paul is probably the reason she isn’t as close to Sue as Billie is. Gaynor is clearly favoured and Sam will do anything to keep Paul happy and they also moved to Hertfordshire so not just round the corner for a visit now. I agree that watching Sam and Paul is uncomfortable, I really want him to show her some affection!

[HJWT]

Its such a shame that Sam can shout her mouth of at her friends but doesn't show that much enthusiasm when it comes to arguing for what is right for her little boy!

[areyoubeingserviced]

Tubby- they look so different in those photos.
Their faces seem a bit harder now.

[AnagramBixter]

After watching last night, thank goodness I didn't have to put up with that rabble on the train all the way to Manchester. Makes you realise the stories of noisy rabble on the island were probably true.

[MaHeidsGouping]

Ferne McCann gets around, she makes out on her programme that life is all so hard being a single mum with Sunday but on Sam and Billies programme she has been to a fair few of their parties.

Nellys bedtime is the exact same as my 5yr old so I feel better now .
