Married to the game - On Prime

[Netaporter]

Anyone fancy a watch thread? I watched it all yesterday….It is a mindless watch if anyone fancies one 😂

I'm on the last episode, the lifestyles they lead are unbelievable, enjoyed it though nice and easy to watch

Forgot to say I cannot stand Dawn Ward, Taylors mum, just seems such a horrible woman

@Lovewine1975 Totally agree about DW. After she was on the RHOC I was dubious about the editing, but her behaviour on this show was that of a total narcissist. Fancy trying to ruin your daughter’s big day by making it all about you? The scene in the bridal shop 😮Then the face like a slapped arse when her daughter was trying to get ready on her wedding day! Right after the night before when Everyone in the brides PJ party in monogrammed white garb, she turns up in some gaudy primark gear like she hadn’t been given a set. And fancy wearing the same colour as the bridesmaids to the wedding. She really is awful….. looks like it wasn’t unjustified criticism by the other housewives at all….

I couldn't believe how awful Rihad seemed. Such a plank. He literally seems to have nothing about him whatsoever. What was Taylor thinking?!

I hope they do a second series so we can see how she gets on in SA, can imagine it being very lonely for her

@boomingaround I think she was probably thinking I don’t need to get a job 😂

If Riyad was a bloke who cut hair in the local barbers, I doubt she would consider him the man of her dreams…

My DH was offered a huge amount of money to take a job in Saudi, he refused as he didn’t want to impose that lifestyle on me and our DD’s. It is highly unlikely that Taylor will be open about living in Saudi - it would be considered to be offensive to the culture if she did….

That was my cynical take on it too. Married the first rich footballer who came along and could keep her in the same lifestyle she was used to.

Couldn't Riyad say no to Saudi? I would never agree to live somewhere like that with such a disgraceful womens rights record.

@boomingaround Playing in the Saudi or MLS and being picked for the team requires considerably less effort than the major leagues of the UK/Europe. And the wages are insane - hence the attraction. Saudi is the smart choice for an end of career move if you are prepared to overlook HR records etc. But Riyad is an Algerian, so I’m assuming it is not as much of a culture shock for him. Taylor on the other hand….1

My DH was explaining why the footballers go out there they literally get paid ridiculous amounts, and its the same for the golfers who play there now. Many many years ago when I was young my dad worked out there, but we all stayed in this country because of the way woman are treated and the culture, it would of just been awful for us.

If I had to move I think Barcelona looked much better indeed where Sara went!

There's no chemistry/affection between Taylor and Riyad.

Just discovered this. I find Cat extremely annoying with her fake laugh…

I’ve watched most of it and agree that Cat is the most annoying. I quite like the Tarkowski’s though.

Late to the party but have just finished watching.

As much as I wanted to detest Taylor I actually ended up feeling sorry for her.
She is a product of her upbringing, groomed to put money before integrity, love, respect.
And don't even get me started on Rhayd, his disgust of her was palpable. Even when taking their vows he was leaning away from her.

Whats this on?
