Anyone else watching Fergie co presenting This Morning today? She's being very careful with what she's saying, but seems good fun.

I just read a review of her performance in the Guardian.

Oh dear.

Did they like it. 😁

That review has really made me laugh.

I love Fergie. I’m not ashamed of it. She’s a very kind, naive disaster. And I’m here for any further ITV presenting jobs… probably on catch up.

Justcallmebebes · 21/11/2023 00:14

That Guardian article was funny. Jan Moir in the Mail describes her as looking like a mad mother elf Grin

Roussette · 21/11/2023 06:39

I just hope This Morning realised the error if their ways and it won't be a regular slot!

Someone who can't read autocue, who talks over the other presenters or just drifts off mid sentence, and who thinks the answer to relationship problems is for the woman to buy some sexy underwear...really should not be seen again. 🦃😮

God knows why the royals consider themselves capable of things they have no experience or capability with ... she's going to end up the next royal flop/joke like H&M!

Janiie · 21/11/2023 08:54

She's just such a likeable character isn't she. Yes she has a catalogue of gaffes and mistakes but she owns it. She doesn't 'ponce about' pretending to be something she isn't.

Always respectful and discreet about the rf which her blabbermouth nephew could learn something from.

PotOfViolas · 21/11/2023 08:57

I saw Eugenie's wedding on TV and I thought she came across very well. Quite a fun, likeable person. It's a shame she experienced so much abuse from the tabloids years ago. I just hope that doesn't happen again.

She hasn't slways been ' respectful and discreet' about the Royals! She did her own Oprah interview, plus the fake sheikh business. She's 'respectful and discreet' now because she gets to live on the Royal Estate with her ex husband and gets invited to Sandringham now Phil is dead and as the only person who actually considers Andrew a decent human being!

Roussette · 21/11/2023 09:11

That's funny Janiie! You obviously haven't read excerpts of her book where she absolutely slags off the Monarchy, the men in grey suits, the Institution, the way everything is handled... on and on. She obviously leaves the family out of it, as her exH was still in it.
Respectful? You're having a larf! She didn't have a good word to say about 'the Firm'.

Haha... yes... she shuts up now as she is living on a Royal Estate with her ex of 32 years! She had plenty to say before!

yes, front page photos of toe sucking while still married is not embarrassing the family at all! Trying to restore your creepy ex husbands reputation during the pandemic packing muffins, so likeable!

'yes, front page photos of toe sucking while still married is not embarrassing the family at all! '

Honestly they've weathered far worse over the decades I doubt this is even in their top ten.

She has never played the 'poor me waaah! its every else's fault' card and that is why folk like her. Self deprecating not ridiculously pompous, bitter or jealous.

Iwantcakeeveryday · 21/11/2023 09:23

Like @Roussette said, its obvious you don't know anything about her book or any of her interviews where she has indeed complained about her time in the royal household. As long as she constantly references the Queen lovingly, I guess the facts don't matter.

Fizbosshoes · 21/11/2023 09:27

Notjustfish · 20/11/2023 12:50

And her young child is 33 yrs old.

That was my first thought!
Her daughters might be working mothers (albeit fairly privileged) but I'm not sure I'd describe Fergue as such. If she didnt work would we be referring to her as a SAHM...? (with 2 children in their 30s who moved out years ago...)

DuchessOfPort · 21/11/2023 09:29

I’m going to have to order her book. I can’t believe I’ve never got round to it!

elsaandanna · 21/11/2023 09:29

Is she in a relationship with Prince Andrew again? Does anyone know?

Iwantcakeeveryday · 21/11/2023 09:31

oh of course they are! they've been living together all this time! A divorce was to try and fool the public.

Roussette · 21/11/2023 09:34

She has never played the 'poor me waaah!

Please stop taking the proverbial. Please

Just read the reviews for that book I talked about. Let me copy one for you

“Poor woah is me.” The next page “I’m broke.” The next page “I’m trying really hard to be relatable and nice...look at all the charities I’m doing!” The next page “Oh, my life is horrible, I only made $500,000 on my book.” “I’m broke again. Everything is the Establishment’s fault.” never her fault.

There's literally hundreds saying the same. I can copy more !

Fool the public?

I don't think it matters if they are in a relationship or not tbh.

Roussette · 21/11/2023 09:40

As you so love the word "whining"...here's another one

"There is too much whining, and crying, and complaining and more whining. Good grief."

Now we've put the assertion that She has never played the 'poor me waaah! its every else's fault' card. I think we can move on!

derxa · 21/11/2023 09:44

The point is she is back in the royal fold and there is absolutely nothing you can do about it. She's just bounced back from major surgery due to cancer. She may be a chancer but I admire her resilience.

Angrycat2768 · 21/11/2023 09:46

Goodornot · 20/11/2023 11:38

Busiest working mother?! Without having to lift a finger to do any cooking, shopping or cleaning and having a nanny 24/7 and not actually going to work.

Honestly the Royals do the bare minimum and manage to get people to fawn over how amazingly hard working they are! These people must know they aren't doing the hoovering while holding down anything like a job and taking care of the kids, yet they are willing to demean themselves and other people by pretending that no one works harder than a Royal with nannies and armies of household staff because they turn up to a 10 minute handshaking and ask inane questions twice a week! It's PR genius that must be ingrained through the generations!

Exactly this.

It clearly grates that she is well liked.
