It felt to me like it was completely being set up for series 2. But who knows.
It’s such a different world. I know only a far-fetched story - but definitely a case of ‘be careful what you wish for’.
Sophie was (is) beautiful, with a degree from Oxford, and nabbed the most popular boy. But in doing so, was reduced to nothing more than his support person. How can that ever lead to contentment, or be fulfilling?
On realising she couldn’t, understandably, play that role and at that point, so embroiled in a sham marriage … her motivation to cut him down to size means she ends up doing the one thing she was always trying desperately to prevent happening - throwing her own children’s happiness/wellbeing/privacy under a bus.
A cautionary tale in picking a good man to be your husband and father to your children, rather than the ‘best’ man.
Had she come on here when the affair first came to light, she’d have been told in no uncertain terms to LTB.
