Imagine paying thousands for a holiday of a life time and the dingles turn up with nelly shouting 'Billie shep to be' and 'Billie is a shap' constantly!!!!!!! Nightmare

Quintella · 07/05/2019 19:55

Ahh, was that what the chants were? Grin I couldn't make it out and thought it was down to my not speaking fluent Essexese.

Runkle · 07/05/2019 20:32

That and 'mum's on the loose' Hmm

ballsdeep · 07/05/2019 20:48

I hate the chants. They make me cringe.

LoafofSellotape · 07/05/2019 21:33

Me too,they're awful.

WeMarchOn · 09/05/2019 12:55

Just watching the wedding, I can't believe they didn't tell Baby Paul off for throwing a toy at Sam 🤦🏻‍♀️

SchrodingersBrexit · 09/05/2019 13:08

@WeMarchOn Big Paul didn't even seem bothered that Sam's face was cut. It was actually a bit uncomfortable to watch.

WeMarchOn · 09/05/2019 13:30

@SchrodingersBrexit saying he didn't mean it, sorry he is old enough to know it was wrong

mrssunshinexxx · 09/05/2019 13:48

Yes i thought that they should of made a bigger deal out of it because I think he actually hurt her whether is was accident or not

IHaveBrilloHair · 09/05/2019 14:01

Sam never makes a big deal of anything negative, wouldn't go with the perfect family she so desperately wants.
It's sad and a bit pathetic.

WeMarchOn · 09/05/2019 14:08

@IHaveBrilloHair he will grow up thinking it's ok to behave in that way, not good parenting really

SchrodingersBrexit · 09/05/2019 14:19

I think he will really struggle at school if they don't tell him that throwing toys at someone isn't ok.

whatawolly · 10/05/2019 14:35

Did anyone else feel upset and uncomfortable at the huge difference between the way Paul and Rosie are treated? I have no issue with sleep training but I really did not like watching the way Rosie was left to cry in a dark spare bedroom in a cot shoved anywhere it could fit while Paul slept with mummy all night in a new bedroom full of animal bits and lovely decorations. This isn't the first time they have put Rosie on the back burner to pander to Paul's needs, he always seems to come first and you can clearly see who the favourite is. It is horrible to watch.

PinkieTuscadero · 10/05/2019 14:42

Yes! Rosie, at a year old, is chucked into some anonymous guest room and expected to sleep in her cot whereas the First Born Son has some elaborately decorated bedroom and still co-sleeping with his father at the age of 3.

OnlyFoolsnMothers · 10/05/2019 14:49

What got me that when Rosie was being sleep trained was that Big Paul had to find a hotel with little Paul because god forbid the men in the house should be disturbed by her crying

HJWT · 10/05/2019 16:28

@whatawolly its horrendous isn't it poor baby!

I think he will really struggle at school if they don't tell him that throwing toys at someone isn't ok he was told though, I thought they dealt with that ok.

I think Rosie is typical second child and she was ready to sleep on her own as she slept all night. I think we all realise our mistakes the second time ,don't we?

Nikhedonia · 10/05/2019 17:54

@LoafofSellotape I don't think they helped him to understand that what he did caused his mummy pain and that it really hurt.

RainbowFox · 10/05/2019 20:17

I thought it was sad when they gave up sleep training Paul and all three of them were in the same bed and poor Rosie was on her own in the guest room. She will watch that back one day. I would put money on that it's still like that now.

whatawolly · 10/05/2019 21:13

I'm just watched the wedding episode now and it was so emotional (and bloody stunning to watch)! Billie and Greg are such a normal couple and I love how they show all aspects of their relationship even though it isn't all perfect. They are just so real, it's refreshing.

I think any woman with a son needs to make a point of teaching them how to be gentle, respectful and sympathetic towards women. The toy situation rang huge alarm bells for me. The way they just smoothed over it showed just how the dynamics of their family work. And if anyone thinks I'm being OTT with that statement you just need to look back to how Sam deals with Paul when he kicks out vs Billie and her parenting with Arthur when he acts out. I know which son I would like my future daughters to be around.

M0reGinPlease · 11/05/2019 21:04

Watching the wedding ep now... all the whinging about the kids getting in the way is pissing me off 'what's wrong with him?' he's a normal toddler love, who's been dragged to the other side of the world and he wants his mummy. I nearly threw something at the telly when Sam moaned to her mum 'it's so hard'. Yeah, looking after your own kids on a luxury holiday in the Maldives is hard...

MaHeidsGouping · 13/05/2019 10:14

I hope someone told Billie that she should change "thier" Confused.

I think with the second you know the mistakes you made with your first. Rosie won't know what toys are or aren't in her room.

My second was put in her cot to sleep whilst my eldest was with me. The youngest didn't have a clue and it was what they were used to. As soon as she got to 3 and realised though that's a different story Shock

OnlyFoolsnMothers · 13/05/2019 15:45

The episode where they stayed at the animal park was telling too. I appreciate Paul is older and more able to interact but they spoke solely to him about the animals and rosie was ignored in the buggy
